Things that shouldn’t be a surprise

Carolina is horrible and that should not be a surprise.  It was plain as day before kickoff 

1.  Bryce Young isn’t a NFL QB

2. Bryce doesn’t fit a Canales O.  Combining a bad QB and putting him in a O he doesn’t fit is the textbook recipe to stink 

3.  Canales shouldn’t be calling plays.  He needs to learn to be a HC.  He was a 1 year meh OC, this ain’t an Andy Reid scenario where a HC can take on that load.  He isn’t even good at that. 

4.  We don’t have a real OC.  A repeated pattern under Tepper.  None of his 3 new coaching eras have featured a real OC in year 1. 

5.  We didn’t play and rep this O in the preseason.  I series vs backups was always nonsense.  It’s a brand new O with parts that don’t fit.   It needed more work than any O in the NFL

6.  All our pass rush left 

it can always get worse.  That’s certainly what this season looks to prove

    • If we lose tomorrow we’d have to sweep the Bucs in order to get into the playoffs. With a loss tomorrow the Bucs would then hold the tie breaker if we finished tied If we can’t split with NO then we sure as hell not sweeping Tampa It’s win or go home tomorrow in my eyes  Biggest game since 2017 playoff game imo  
    • Grok AI: No, there are no credible reports that the Carolina Hurricanes offered Jake Guentzel the same contract terms as Tampa Bay (7 years, $63 million total, $9 million AAV) before he signed with the Lightning. Reliable sources, including The Athletic, consistently reported that Carolina’s offer during negotiations was an eight-year deal worth $64 million ($8 million AAV). Guentzel did not accept it promptly, leading the Hurricanes to trade his negotiating rights to Tampa Bay on June 30, 2024, for a 2025 third-round pick. He then quickly signed the 7x$9M deal with the Lightning on July 1, 2024. Guentzel himself later reflected (in 2025 interviews) that staying in Carolina was his initial preference, but negotiations stalled and “didn’t work out,” with Tampa’s opportunity becoming a “no-brainer.” No reports from outlets like ESPN, NHL.com, or insiders (e.g., Elliotte Friedman, Pierre LeBrun, Frank Seravalli) indicate Carolina ever matched or offered the Lightning’s exact terms—total money, AAV, or length. The extra year was Carolina’s key advantage, but they reportedly stuck closer to $8M AAV and moved on when Guentzel explored options.
