Week 1: at Seattle, 2-2 draw
Week 2: vs. Atlanta, 2-0 win

Off to a strong start. Discuss.

wasn't overjoyed Zaha was taking my boy Vargas' spot (one of my favs)......but he did a really good job of making me not being able to care about it in his Charlotte FC debut.

I like Vargas too but for our first 3 years our attack was way to predictable. Building slowly out of the back bring it down the wing and make low percentage crosses. Apparently at halftime Zaha got into the whole teams Ass and laid it out for them. We need to play fast we need to play direct and it worked. I'm excited to see what we can be this year if they continue their improve every year model we should have a top 4 seed in the East.

yeah, I liked what I saw from Zaha.   Like what he is coming into overall and what they did last year.  He could be a really great add especially when he gets some chemistry going w/ the guys.

poor showing by Charlotte FC Sunday at Miami.....

Losing 1-0 despite Miami going a man down in the first half.  

Zaha was ass but he was getting fouled or drawing 3 defenders everytime he got the ball so I'd have been frustrated too.

      DJ Moore. The quitting WR

      By fieryprophet · Posted

      This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By panfanman · Posted

      Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?

      Bucky Brooks eats humble pie. You want a couple of slices?

      When we didn't trade him to the Rams or the Bears (I believe the Bears said they would take one of Brown/ Burns/DJ Moore) we should have just signed him and kept him.  We should have traded him to the Rams obviously and we should have kept DJ and traded Burns.  We made all three wrong choices with Burns lol.
