The unc thing is me being petty I will say that but you go down guns a blazing for a 2nd year guy with a decent cast of people vs a rookie on the team you root for that wasn’t even given a chance.

Because I've watched the second year guy since he was a true freshman. I know who he is. I probably watched 7-8 of Bryce's college games and never got the hype. I got roundly mocked on here this past off-season for saying that I didn't see the prerequisite physical talent with Bryce. There was the obvious height/size issue, but I said from the get go that at best his arm talent was NFL average at best and was likely below average. I just didn't see the physical talent from Bryce and unfortunately that has played out so far on NFL fields. I would've loved to have been wrong.

That’s like…your opinion man…but what you believe and the rest of the league thinks is not the same. I know you watch Washington games (because of the unc dude) but they have fans throwing him to the wolves and want a new qb too. 

One has played like a middling starter/Journeyman (Howell) the other has played like the worst QB in the league (Young)

They are both replacement level at this point.

He kept control of Antonio Brown.

Something that Bill Belichick, Jon Gruden, Mike Mayock, Bruce Arians, and Tom Brady couldn’t do.

Mike Tomlin is one of the greatest ever.  I don’t love the Steelers but I’d like to see him retire as a Steeler.

I really think that hit changed Brown. Dude seems to have legitimately went crazy and the Steelers knew it and cut bait.

If the Commanders are smart they focus on building around Howell. The Dolphins were straight up mocking Bieniemy's offense post-game and fully admitted the only thing they were concerned about was Howell getting out of the pocket and making plays. Nothing about the scheme or weapons concerned them.

If we're smart we have a legit QB competition next year.

I dont think it would kill them to try, but I also dont think too many people would bat an eye if they moved on from Howell. Its 50/50 at this point IMO. 

I am pretty sure Ron and co are gone after this season so it will all depend on how the new coach views Howell.

Commanders fans have not given up on Sam Howell.

Washington gave up on their ownership 20 years ago, they actually have some hope right now. (Though Rivera will be gone soon.)

Sadly, the Panthers are now about 10 years behind the Washington franchise.  Our fanbase is lost.

Probably gonna boil down to where they draft and what they think of the prospects available.

Either way, they're sitting pretty. They're probably gonna end up with a top 10 rookie QB and trading Howell for decent return or Howell with a shiny new top 10 OT or WR.

I don't think general NFL fandom really understands how trash Bieniemy has been. Not to mention they've had a typical Rivera OL.

      First OTA's Monday and Tuesday

      If you only look at measurables, Mingo and Legette might seem similar.  But when you actually look at them and watch them play, they aren't close to the same.   And this is coming from someone who is skeptical about Legette, although ultimately I believe he will work out.  I've just always disagreed with the comparisons to Mingo.   Mingo tests better than he plays/runs, whereas Legette plays/runs as well as he tests.

      Where will the wins come from? (my early predictions)

      By Mage · Posted

      As bad as things were with the Panthers last year, we still had 4 other games outside of the 2 we won that we came very close to winning.  Could throw the Falcons game in there too, it was tied going into the 4th. I'm not really sure what to expect this year.  I don't think we'll make the playoffs.  However, we play in a very weak division where no team has a standout QB.  On paper, our OL should be good, and could be great if Ikem improves.  That alone could help mask a lot of problems on offense.  Should allow us to run the ball better.  Even if Bryce doesn't improve, the OL should at the very least give him more time to make the easy throws underneath and let a guy like Legette work his magic after the catch. And I think this defense in a 2nd year with Evero should, at the very least, be in the top 16.  I'm expecting our run defense to be as good as it has been in years. I think this team could push for 7-8 wins.  But it could also finish with 2 wins again.  That is just how the league works.  Jets offense was miserable last year, and yet they still won 7 games.   We won't really get a good feel of it until after the preseason, and even then, who knows.
