Worse opening game ever in our history?

This has to be the worst showing by this team in my memory and I've watched every game since inception. They couldn't do anything right. The offense is still bad and the defense could not stop NO until they put in backups. 

We have the 1st overall pick on lock right now and I don't see that changing. This team actually looks worse than last season and I didn't think that could be possible.

The expectations were a lot higher for the 2009 team but this performance was worse.  It’s a push 

QB-wise, 5 turnovers is worse than 2. The 2009 game had promise and expectation of success. I look at 2 picks and a 47-10 loss and think, well, that's probably not the worst it'll be this season.

The Delhomme 5 int game against Philly takes the cake. Followed the 4 int debacle against AZ in the playoffs. We were supposed to be good, that playoff meltdown was the abnormality. 

Instead it cemented our windows was nailed shut. 

That said this was embarrassing. Only 16 more weeks till Bryce Young can get the fug off this roster.

I think the Eagles had one of the all time fantasy def/st scores from that game lol

I think performance wise it was a contender if not the flat out winner by a length.

But not the most painful. This is just more of what we saw in our final two games last year. 
 

I remember losing Smitty against I think the Packers and I think it was the first game and even MNF. That is my worst memory that comes to mind in a minute. 
(I must have blocked that 2009 Philly game from my memory).

    • Great point.    I would lke to add that there is another QB on the roster who was terrible over the middle--Kenny Pickett.  
    • I don't think this is the year for Carolina, unfortunately.  I think they will have to make a decision on the QB position-all we know is that Bryce has year 5, but a long term deal has not been signed--yet--and they would be smart to take a "wait and see" approach.  I have not kept up, and I see a path to upside for Bryce, but I do not think we have aggressively pursued a QB when our QB was mediocre to worse than mediocre.  yes, his numbers are improving--but he has adapted by eliminating what he does poorly and not improving on what he does poorly.  Just my take and I have no data to support this view.   Basically, we go as Bryce goes, so the approach is not to bring in a QB to have him compete until we find one, but it is to make Bryce as good as he can be--is that good enough? Season ticket holders buy the hope of winning rings, not winning 8 games. Last year, Bryce had a resurgence.  Take away TMac and Rico Dowdle.  How good was he?  I still have hope.  Not a hater of plan A, but a hater because we have no plan B.
    • Yeah man, I've been here for a very very long time. Couldn't even begin to tell you what year. Maybe 2004 or 5? I've never really been super active, just enjoy reading everyone's opinions and discussions. I'll chime in from time to time. I have had a few different accounts over the years. It's always been a fun place for me to check in on my favorite team. Hopefully we can keep the place running for a long while still. I also would like to recommend bringing back the Lovely Ladies page!
