If you can't celebrate beating the Saints,  turn in your fan card. 

Honestly I can't really.  It's just kind of funny.  But celebrate?  Really?  This is what we are all rooting for?  A lame duck team to steal a win from a bad team having a bad day.  So much so that the coach gets fired?

I'll celebrate when we're worth half a poo thanks.

We stole a win? 

Nice thoughts.  Keep it to yourself.

It's just sports. Don't make it so complicated

I won't pretend to believe we can perform like this every week. Might not do that again this season. Our roster is in tatters and the Saints are really bad. But still, the rookies played a big role in this win, BY and the defense gained some confidence, and it was good experience for Canales and staff on how to handle a game that remains close all the way throughout. The wins last season were predominantly carried by the defense. Raiders win was a lot on the offense. We kinda needed everyone for this one and despite every statistic saying we should've lost, we won anyways. 

Also, it was against the Saints. You never turn down a W against the Saints.

    • I agree.  He is solid. Another player I think is underrated and with good reason (I will explain): Monroe Freeling UGA Many have him the fifth-rated OT, but I would put him at 2 or 3.  Reason?  He played the season with an ankle issue and still kicked arse.  Here is a write-up that describes him--the injury, in my view, has him rated lower than if healthy all season. OT Monroe Freeling Georgia | 6'7" | 315 lbs Ht:6'7" Wt:315 lbs Class:JR Age:21 (25-Jul-2004) Monroe Freeling earned Second-Team All-SEC honors from league coaches for his performance during the 2025 season. Starting 12 of 13 games, he was twice named SEC Offensive Lineman of the Week after dominant showings against Auburn and Texas, notably grading out at 80 percent with zero pressures allowed against the Longhorns. During the 2025 season, he managed a nagging ankle injury suffered against Kentucky but remained a cornerstone for an offense that ranked first nationally in fourth-down conversions. As a draft prospect, he is recognized for his exceptional reach, mobility in pass protection, and "road-grading" power in the running game. While he has proven to be a reliable starter at left tackle, he also offers significant versatility having started at multiple positions along the line during the 2024 season. Here are some others I like (mostly developmental, but we have at least a year--we hope--at RT)   Your boy: The Panthers were looking at Barber at the SR Bowl practices, I believe.  Good run blocker--needs work in pass pro.  A RT candidate? Shelton would be an ideal swing OT. I really like Bowry.  Footwork is huge for a T, and we do a lot of zone blocking.  
    • We could/should re-sign BC and Nijman and draft 2.  There are 5 or 6 expected to go after round 1 that I really like.   Some are a year away, so I would give Moton an apprentice now.
    • I think (April 2025) the Panthers already gave Ickey his 5th year deal for 2026, a $17m fully guaranteed.  This, in my view, eliminates the practicality of signing a free agent, as if any ever make it to free agency anyway.  So we have a year before deciding on Ickey's next deal / future.
