My theory is the O staff had so much tunnel vision on the QB that they didn’t fully see the issues with the OL and WR room until it was too late. 

I think it hit them during the jets practice.

Canales at least understands how bad this group was and hopefully has improved it by 20-30% or so.

 

Agree 💯 but I’d also add Tepper was somehow convinced that all we needed was a QB to get us over the hump. They badly underestimated that lack of talent on offense last year.

What bothered me was the "what type of guys are we looking for" conversation.

I didn't get anything that wasn't obvious.

"We need a player that can block".  Ok -- don't we look for that every year?

I hope the stuff they cut out of the vid were things about WHY they felt a specific player met certain criteria that might be considered proprietary to our 2024 overall plan

It was more than that

since Tepper owned the team, and Ron Rivera’s last year too, there  have been a lot   of players who were just happy to get a paycheck, coaches too, it showed

…off the field…and on the field

there are players who get paid and don’t care about the game…that is not what Dan wants…and I applaud him for it.

Evero was in this episode for maybe 3-4 seconds 

Yeah well to most people it seems like football is all offense anymore. Defense is only a technicality to be worked around - which they are ‘improving’ the rules annually. 

I should add: I am looking forward to seeing him work this year to compare it with last year and see if he is as good as I think he is.

      Xavier Legette is the face of the NFL at the Kentucky Derby

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.

      Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.
