Team's not as bad as it was. It had a chance till that last drive where we had some bad drops.

We had a chance against a really good team.

We had a chance missing some key players.

That's not a poo team.

Might be time for a new perspective.

My perspective is exactly what I said….at least it’s competitive. What so hard about that as a “needing a new perspective”?

I knew we would see more third and longs today with the absence of Adam. Regardless of what some say, he draws a ton of respect from defenses and is Andy’s favorite target. He and Johnson are still meshing. 

This will be a week getting back to fundamentals.  Tackling and drops cost them the game…. But look,  It’s Joe throwing to Chase and Higgins with their shot at the playoffs hanging in the balance. Sound familiar? It’s like we’ve seen this scenario before. 

This Panthers team in 2 weeks: 60 points. 48 first downs (let that sink in) 7 touchdowns. Chuba has 218 rush yards, averaging over 5 yards a carry. Both games convincingly winning the TOP. Best WR since… Smitty?!! (DJ Moore people coming at me with torches and pitchforks here… sorry Y’all, Johnson has a higher top gear). In 3 starts, I haven’t yet had a “Damnit, Andy” moment. 

I couldn’t tell you more than 6 starters on the defense. Most are JAG- level, BUT, they play their asses off. I know there are no moral victories and all of that, but to be down as far as we were at one point and still battling. Gang tackling. That’s character, and it starts at the top. We’ve seen this team mail it in with smaller deficits than that. They believe in their QB and coaching. 

This week will be fundamentals and developing X to be more comfortable as the #2 until Thielen returns. This is a good thing as it kind of felt like the moment was a bit big for him. I think the pressure of it all directly led to his drops. You couldn’t ask for better mentoring than Thielen and Andy. At the end of the season, kid is going to be a straight up stud. Let him get some confidence and more fluidity to his play… DK level problem. Just watch. 

I don’t know how to judge Evero yet. He doesn’t have much to work with. A pass rush completely changes the complexion of this game. Joe had an obscene amount of time. It, in addition to poor tackling was the difference here. I think if you give him an at least average pass rush… it’s just not fair to judge a coach when maybe 5 of our current starters would even make the 53 man roster on other squads.

And if we don't fall short on the 4th and goal at the one in the first series, we are playing with a lead and you don't know how things turn out.

Best thing we are getting out of this is I feel much better about our coaching selection, and if Morgan can continue to work on filling out this roster as he has so far.... well, the trajectory is FINALLY headed in the right direction.

      I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.

      This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.

      to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
