The don’t want him to get hurt, and the OL sucks, so they haven’t run a single RPO all year.

Literally, the only thing in Bryce’s control is to run more when nothing is open instead of throwing the ball away or waiting and taking a sack. If no one is open or coming open, tuck and run. He’s tried long enough to wait and hope someone comes open, it’s just not going to happen 

We've run RPO.  People get RPO confused with zone read all the time. 

What Cam did was a zone read.  It's primarily a running play where you are reading a key defender to decide whether the tailback gets the ball or the QB pulls and runs.  Sometimes you'll have a pass option worked into that, but it's usually designed as a run.  We would be so far beyond stupid to have Bryce do any of this it doesn't even bear conversation.

An RPO is a play that often looks similar to a zone read at the mesh point.  The difference is that the QB is reading a key defender to decide if the tailback gets the ball or he pulls it to throw.  This is the stuff Bryce "should" be good at.  We were sold he was a super smart guy, reading that defender and creating a no win scenario for him should be right in BY's wheelhouse.

Duce Stanley probably still has Ben Johnson's number from where they were together in Detroit the last couple of years. Maybe Tepper had Deuce send a friendly text to ask if he's interested? It's a long shot but that's the dream. We are his hometown and childhood's favorite team, and he already has familiarity with Duce and Todd Wash who are already on staff and if Evero doesn't get a HC gig then he already has a top DC here and ready to go.

The sharks might already be one of the coaches.

Yep

i feel bad for the DC.  on the field constantly, mass amounts  of IR’ed personnel   He also has managed to look like a pro team even without the personnel for his system   He will be severely tested today 

he and Tabor are all I would keep…the GM, scouts, offensive staff, head coach, bye

The Panthers have players and staff, and have for a few years, that are just glad to be here, get checks and participation awards and I’m sick of being every other team’s get well game for the past six years 

hire a consultant if needed but do something …you have to know to fold a losing hand

and, what is trotted out in this field is  a poo fest of all poo fests…let’s start with a QB without the physical tools to be a running threat to protect himself and help this anemic offense   All the defense needs to do is crowd the middle and it’s over   I’d be bringing in legitimate competition for him as well   

The Panthers only hope today is a Dallas sleepwalk. …truthfully, I’m not sure the Panthers could score if they were the only team in the field.

It makes sense to want the job if you believe in Bryce. Have him on a rookie deal. I’d imagine the sharks also want to be GM though which leads me to two candidates:

1) belicheck - I think this is not conceivable and not happening

2) harbaugh - I think this is much more realistic and is a no brainer

      All I can say is... I have some happiness off the rags choking and losing to the Panthers. Hopefully the Western conference team wins the Stanley cup, but now I can be 100% uninvested in the playoffs

      Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.

      Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
