Canales - COULD ANY WEEK 1 RUST BE ATTRIBUTED TO NOT PLAYING STARTERS FOR MOST OF PRESEASON?

“It all matters. It all counts. And so that’s something that we gotta think about. But again, we had an opportunity today to play football. We played a lot of football, particularly on defense. We played a lot of football. So we’ll learn a lot from just being able to get this group together and work off each other.”

I said all along it would work out fine if your team comes out looking at least competent and competitive. Don't necessarily need a win just need to give hope. But the other side to the coin is a horrific blow out loss. Well....Dave has earned himself his first heaping portion of criticism.

I hope that’s parody, but it is scary that I can’t tell

Not playing the starters together in a game situation with so many new faces is stupidity 

I mean yea we all know that. But hey guy is admitting he has more to learn. I have this feeling that Tepper is telling him not to play starters because it’s been a theme in the previous coaches like Rhule in particular.

He and Kamala should get together. “Today, we played football. And football is a game, ya know? HAHAHAHA. Anyway, they play this game, football, on a field, with a ball, and we did that today. We played. And we, you know, have cameras that record it. So, you know what cameras do? Okay, good. Yeah, we will use what cameras do, an we will, like, watch the recording, like this one time I was a kid”. 
 

this game was awful and I am in no way surprised.

I hate sounding like the bitter old guy but  I remember when training camp was more like boot camp and not vacation Bible school.

2 a days, full pads full contact conditioning the bodies for the rigors of an NFL regular season.  Did injuries happen?  Sure and it sucked but guys were ready week 1.

The CBA and these soft ass poo boys have ruined a great sport.

I will say we were not the only team that looked ineffective and out of it.

Honestly, as hard as it's going to be for the fans, we need to give Dave time to learn to be an NFL Head Coach.  That's just how I'm looking at things right now.

well i like Canales I honestly do but at  the same time he has no buisness this early in his career  being. a head coach in the NFL

100%. This and all the in-game rule changes in the name of "safety" but really just to increase offense to pander to the general public morons who want to see skills clinics more akin to flag football in 56-53 games rather than pure football. I'm nowhere near a boomer but I'm sounding like one and have no shame about it. Football has gone way downhill in the last decade+

      MLB Devin Lloyd for WR Jalen Coker??

      By shaqattaq · Posted

      I'm not to sure it's a solid argument to try to estimate what he will do this season, BUT he's had a solid 3 years in the league. Here's his numbers compared to Jewell's for the same time period. I can see the logic of getting a starting MLB for a (at best) WR4. AT, XL and Tmac are certainly our top 3 guys IN 2025. Certainly worth pondering.

      Training camp just started and it's already starting... https://www.facebook.com/reel/24277303321904901/?mibextid=rS40aB7S9Ucbxw6v LOL No one believes you and you have fan pages sharing this with a "Play him or trade him" headline. Oh wee mayne. This is why no front offices wanted any part of this.

      Honestly, it only makes sense if you're trying to chase being the best bad team you can be this year. The number one question we need answered this season is whether or not Bryce is our long-term franchise QB. Trading away a second year WR who was second on the team in catch percentage, first in yards per target, and who clearly outplayed your 1st round pick for a likely one year rental fill in LB is exactly the type of short sighted desperation moves that has made us the worst franchise in the league under Tepper. We gotta stop making these types of moves and just focus on building a good organization and a good roster. Lloyd is a JAG LB another bad team and awful defense is wavering on and a couple of Panthers fans are salivating over him. Oof. We just need to be patient and wait. Definitely make some calls around the league to teams deep at LB and see if there's an opportunity to add one for a late round pick. Definitely shop the waiver wire hard. The reality is that LB is almost certainly going to be a weakness for us this year. We weren't fixing our entire roster in one off-season and we're not fixing an overall weak positional group in late July.  If you trade for Lloyd LB is still a weakness and you've given up a young promising WR who could potentially help you answer the question of whether or not Bryce is that guy. That's bad football business.
