I mean he did transform them into an exceptional defensive team. He just never got an OC worth a fug, IMO.

And Nathaniel Hackett, the Rodgers picked dude, is likely what got him fired.

Yeah it's a deffensive guy as HC that should just be a DC. He already built the D and the Roger's move was desperate and already failed last year. Go ahead and bring in an offensive guy who gets 1 year with Rodgers to build it up now vs waiting till the end of the year.

I mean, let's be real... Aaron Rodgers is basically the OC. There's nothing he's asking for offensively that isn't being implemented. I just don't know why so many people were convinced a 40 year old future 1st ballot HOF QB coming off an Achilles injury was going to magically transform an offense with plenty of other problems. That always struck me as a considerable long shot of a bet.

Rodgers is going nowhere with them. I would be very reticent to jump onto that bandwagon as a young offensive minded coach.

It would be interesting to see Belichick consider that job.

Rodgers plays bad HC gets fired.

 

Just accept the fact you traded for a old aging QB and he no longer is what he used to be.

 

Also Rodgers is toxic. I wanted us to trade for him when he was available, but man I'm glad we didn't. This dude is more drama more than anything. He's never happy!

He isn't playing awful, in fairness. He just seems to be off script with the receivers and then he starts pressing and making mistakes.

It doesn't help that he does the standard Rodgers pouting when things aren't going his way. His chemistry with the rest of the offense seems terrible.

May actually be the right call, but I could agree that it may be premature.

Doesn't exactly speak well of Aaron Rodgers though, does it?

It's probably better for Saleh. That ship isn't likely to be righted.

Watch them name Hackett the interim and the full Rodgers takeover be completed.

Wouldn't mind picking him up as dc if we scapegoat evero lol

He had 49ers defense rolling 

I haven't looked closely enough at them to make a true judgment, but I did have a sense that the 49er defense was loaded with talent thanks to Adam Peters. 

I guess it becomes a question of how much of it was really Saleh.

My thoughts exactly. I think Canales and Saleh know each other pretty well.

If Evero gets sacrificial lamb'd at the end of the year (Even though I honestly don't know what more he could do with the talent he was given to start with, only to have it all get injured and have to work with the 3rd and 4th stringers) I wouldn't mind Money bags Tepper tossing as much money as possible to bring him on board as DC.

It's not fair.  But, going by what we've seen from Tepper, Evero will 100% be scapegoated for this season's failure.

      Dan looking at a new Conerback!!!

      Nothing wrong with starting to look for bodies early. It's a long injury filled season. I doubt we get through unscathed.

      Adam Theilen said he came back to play with Bryce, and he expects the Panthers to surprise some people

      By Icege · Posted

      We're in alignment regarding Thielen not being a game changer/breaker for the Panthers. Getting the ball into hands of playmakers like TMac and XL is going to open up things more than it is getting it to Thielen underneath (or letting him go after 50/50 balls 20yds downfield in his mid-30s). However, in a room where the other guys are two second year guys and two rookies, having a reliable vet that they can learn from is just as important as it is for the QB to have as a reliable third option. I can see that being worth $8.5M (just 3%) of the $279.2M cap... especially when looking at what's left out there: https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/_/position/wr However, the idea that the team is forcing production to Thielen and leading to losses isn't supported by the data. Targets, not receiving yards, are how you can tell if a player is being "force fed." In the two games mentioned, let's look at the other players available... vs. TB 10 targets - Adam Thielen 9 targets - David Moore 8 targets - Tommy Tremble, Xavier Legette 3 targets - Jonathon Brooks 1 target - Dan Chisena, Feleipe Franks, Stephen Sullivan vs. PHI 11 targets - Adam Thielen 8 targets - Xavier Legette 5 targets - Chuba Hubbard, David Moore 2 targets - Tommy Tremble 1 target - Ja'Tavion Sanders, Deven Thompkins There isn't exactly a bounty of other names to throw the ball to. In those games, AT was one of the top 2 WRs. Diontae had been gone by that point.   So... yea. Agreed that Thielen isn't exactly carrying the team in his mid-30s, but it's undeniable that he was the most reliable target last season that still has quite a bit of value this season. Whether or not that value is reflected in a manner folks think on the contract is going to come down to personal taste. However, the idea that the team was forcing production to AT and that was the reason behind some losses couldn't be further from the truth.

      I would also add that I think it's more than money.  AT has looked absolutely miserable out there at times, and there was a lot of speculation he would demand to be traded.  Personally, I thought he was a lock to be moved last year.  Maybe his hamstring is the only thing that prevents that from happening. The fact that he's not only willing to come back and play, but excited about it, really bodes well for Bryce.  AT is a veteran and he knows the game.  If he didn't have confidence in Bryce, I guarantee you he wouldn't be in a Panther uniform this year.  I'll take that as a positive.
