Comparing our recent hirings to Cleveland's, Denver's, and Miami's, I'd say we got the best of what is available. Harbaugh wasn't coming here, and Cowher and Gruden were not going to enter the NFL this season. Besides them who did you want?

You didn't swallow the pill yet? I'm slightly excited, but I don't think it is an all star coaching staff that the huddle masses think it is. Meeks as a secondary coach is great. Everything else should be taken with a wait and see approach.

The funniest quote I've seen is when someone said the Eagles were dumb for firing McDermont? He made them average, it is time to move on.

Oh it's not an all star line up but it ain't scraping the bottom of the barrel either. Ie... the 9 interviews with Chico mean nothing due to the Rooney rule.

I'm pretty happy so far. Just because someone was once a Browns coach is no reason to dismiss them - billicheat was a Brown HC.

Everyone says our previous head coach is good - although he didn't display it too much here.

Somwtimes the situation is what caused a coach to not shine.

I pretty satisfied so far - would love to have Singletary - but happy so far.

A Head Coach who got rejected 9 years in a row

A Defensive Coordinator who just got poo canned

A Special teams coach who has no redeeming qualities

An OC who seems to be following Jeff Davidson around

I'm hopeful and as always will be cheering louder than any of you if we win.

But I would like you to consider for a moment that we are scraping the bottom of the barrel in the NFL. Just consider it.

good day

Two more things to consider....we've filled a few lower posistions with some of our own rejects, and there are yet more posistions to be filled and plenty more barrels to be scraped.

Yeesh...

Ever see that episode of the Simpsons where Mr. Burns thinks he is invincible because he has every disease known to man? Kinda feels like that.

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      You joke, but it can always be worse. He might walk with a limp or need assistance. Different sport, but Lonzo Ball couldn't even walk up steps a year after his injury.

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      By Icege · Posted

      I mean... a lot of the information that could've helped set better expectations has always been out there: There was no RB on the team under contract for the 2025 - 2026 season except for Miles Sanders. The team did not have a second round pick going into the 2025 season due to the trade for Young. Chuba's extension did not happen until the beginning of November. Jonathon Brooks was the clear RB1 in the class with a massive gap between RB1 & RB2. Example: Dane Brugler had Brooks as RB1, overall #48; Blake Corum was RB2, #81 overall. The Giants held pick #47 and had just lost Saquon Barkley to the Eagles in free agency. They were going to take Brooks had the Panthers not jumped in front of them. So if we're framing things with that context: Chuba was expected to be RB1 Miles (at the time) was RB2 Brooks was essentially RB3, stashed for rehab in 2024 with a long runway. The original injury occurred Nov 2023 while the re-injury occurred December 2024. That is right in the high-risk window for recurrence, especially in explosive athletes. The fact that it also happened on a non-contact play suggests possible biomechanical issues such as muscle imbalance, rather than a failed surgery (or bad decision-making).   NFL teams invest heavily in medically vetting prospects. If there had been a clear red flag in imaging or recovery markers, the team is going to find it. This sucks and the Panthers have sucked, yes, but this wasn't blind optimism or malpractice by the front office. It was a calculated decision based on the roster, draft capital, positional scarcity, etc.

      Clowney released

      Yep, but they can all rotate with Brown, Brown and Robinson (sounds like a law firm). Can't continue to have Derrick Brown out there for 90+ percent of the defensive snaps. An injury was bound to happen.
