Dan Campbell gets emotional after Washington loss.


Recommended Posts

I think they were feeling themselves a bit much coming into the game and it compounded the 'bad day' aspect of things. Either way, it happens, and Campbell is a good coach overall. They need to cool it a bit with the trickery but not much, easy to get too cute and that's exactly what happened with the Williams dagger of an interception.

Its time for the Lions to pull a KC and trade up for a QB, Goff isnt taking them all the way, thats why the Rams moved on. 

Give Goff this upcoming season because the class is weak and go for a QB in 2026. 

Hoping for a Commanders vs Bills super bowl. The Commanders are my grandpas team and he is up in age and the Bills have never won one.

Campbells a good coach. But Goff has always been as advertised, he will play well and put up stats but he shrinks in the clutch moments and when it matters most. Rams 100% won that trade. Same with Darnold and Baker, I'm not upset that we moved on from them. They play well to get to the playoffs but collapse when it matters.

Of late, that description has been applied to a certain Steelers coach as well.

Campbell is a really good coach, but one who is going to end up having some rough years along the way as well.

He's always going to need good coordinators as he's not really an X's and O's HC, which is rather rare, normally a HC is really good on one side of the ball.  The more turnover they have year to year on the coaching staff, it's going to end up leading to some down years when he doesn't pick his assistants properly.

But when he hits on his OC and DC in a season, then the positives of him being a HC are magnified and his team is going to have a real shot at contending.

His philosophy has bit them in the ass 2 straight playoffs. That Jameson Williams pass was a stupid fuging play call by Johnson as well.  I'm not sure he will ever win a superbowl. The best coaches can adapt style a bit. Campbell only knows one way

I would test Hendon Hooker out first. He may be just what they are looking for and need. I feel like he could turn into something and I am surprised if no other team has not attempted to get him in a trade for a later round draft pick to see if he can turn into a solid starter. He has had time on the bench to watch and he is ready to at least see if he can hack it as more than a backup

    • Then don't tune in. It's really not a hard concept to understand, if your making your decision based on your own personal needs/feelings as opposed to what is best for the future of the franchise, then it's a you problem, not a Panthers problem. When the season is already lost, every fan should be rooting for the same thing.  The team plays hard until the final whistle of the season and keeps improving as a team and individually, but in the end, we still come up short and lose games, and preferably because the other team beat us, not because we screwed up and found a way to lose due to our own fault. Look at it this way... If we are up 1 or 2 points with 3 seconds left in the game and the other team is lining up for a FG.  Beyond the joy of victory or the disappointment of defeat, what impact does the other team making or missing the FG have on our team the following season? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING Except where we draft and what teams we play due to our finish in the division. The players and coaches on the team would have the exact same level of improvement and learnings about themselves individually and as a team whether the FG is made or missed.  The ONLY difference in the end is the record in the standings and if the win or loss number changes. If you want to argue if making the playoffs to lose in the first round or just missing them is better or worse, that's totally fair and I can at least understand the other side of it.  But in what is already a lost season, if you're not hoping your team plays well but ends up losing, then you're cutting off your nose to spite your face.  You're hoping for a moment of happiness at the detriment of the franchise's future, and in turn, you're basically then happy for a moment to only set yourself up for future further disappointment.
    • If we’re eliminated I want the wins more.   The season is already a disappointment and if I’m not pulling for wins why bother to tune in?
    • Two things terribly wrong with this post. First is that not one time has myself or anyone else agreeing with me said that the team themselves should think that way or try and lose for positioning.  Never once have I suggested the team should purposefully lose games, ever.  I honestly can't understand why people keep saying this in posts, not one fan has ever said the players should or would purposefully try to lose. And second, is yes, that has happened and it's happened very recently.  The 2020 Bengals were 4-11-1 and then were playing in the SB the very next season.   And while it might have been 2 years later and they didn't quite get to the SB, the 2021 Lions were 3-13-1 and then the 2023 Lions were up 24-7 at halftime of the NFC Championship game. The season between those two? They finished 9-8 and only just missed the playoffs. Which is why I keep trying to compare us to the Lions in where we are at in our re-build.  Throw out Bryce's rookie year with the Reich staff who just didn't work out and he looked god awful.   This past season when we were 5-12 in Canales' 1st season is that 2021 season for the Lions and their 1st season under Campbell.  This year is their 2022 where they grew a ton and Campbell's culture building was clear, where I'm saying we'd likely be better off in the long run if we go 8-9 or 9-8 and just miss out on the playoffs (which is still a significant improvement from last year).  Then our 2026 is their 2024 when we have a chance to be a real contender after adding a few more pieces and our key players having another year of experience under their belts.
