Completely fair until we see some actual results under Tepper

I also noted that we have their panels 32nd ranked roster, which I also agree with.

Hence why I get a little perplexed by the minority opinions here talking playoffs. I do understand how weak our division is and favorable the schedule is but.....we will rarely not be the least talented team on the field, if ever.

I actually am not so sure about 32nd ranked roster, we do have a ton of talent on offense outside of QB (granted, young and "unproven") and while the D has a ton of holes we do have a few potential superstars there to build around in Brown and Horn. I think our roster minus Bryce is like 18-23ish league-wide. Including QB in the equation may drop it a bit, but admittedly I am very low on Bryce.

I would disagree. The only real proven talent on the roster that are Lewis, Hunt, Moton, Hubbard, and D. Brown. One could argue Moehrig. The overwhelming bulk is a mix of incomplete grades, unproven talent or known weaknesses. 

I think when you factor in the depth after the starters, it's overwhelmingly 32nd ranked.

No way do we have the 32nd ranked roster. Not in a league where the Saints, Colts and Giants exist.

I mean, the Colts and Giants are so unbelievably better than our roster it is rather laughable to even suggest this. New Orleans is a bad roster but still a good bottom 5 candidate.

The closest is likely the Pats. But when you look at our rosters side by side, I would say we are worse overall.

Saints are much worse.

I mean, when you actually start putting player vs player?  I don't think it's controversial.  Carolina still almost fully banking on hope that dudes pan out for a high % of the agreement here.  So proven edges out potential when you start putting them head to head.

take lead dogs at WR.  Pittman, Nabors, and Olave.  Lead dogs elsewhere got more proof in the pudding.  They all got 1k WRs.  And WR is going to be maybe the key area people are making a case for Carolina to be higher.

The hype on the WR corps is scary and unfair to the guys we have, IMO.

Nothing wrong w/ be excited about the potential.  But Nabors and Tmac ain't going to fair the same in a head to head ranking like this.  One still waiting to log a real NFL catch and the other has put in the books already. 

and we have been so bad, I just don't see the point of being offended we are last.  We deserve to be defaulted worse when it is close based on our proven track record of late.

    • What do you think of Bryce Youngs career thus far? Are you excited about his progress or is it not enough for you? I included a poll of ranking his performance through 3 years thus far.  I personally think he's made some decent progress. Has had some high moments (last half of 2024, Rams game, ATL game in 2025)  but in my mind, those are still outweighed by the many more lowlights thus far (ex turnovers, missed throws, poor decisions)  It's a very mixed bag for me. He's done enough to get a 5th year option but by no means should we lock him in with a 50+ mil a year multi year deal. I want to see him play consistently well for a full year before that happens (yes, I'm still saying that going into year 4. That might be telling).  Just sucks when you see CJ Stroud, Jayden Daniel's, Caleb Williams almost immediately lighting poo up with their arm talent. Maybe Bryce is just an ultra slow burn. I don't know what to think anymore. Guess we're gonna be stuck with him for a whilr unless we end up being bad enough to earn a high pick next year. I doubted it lol. Overall Stats for his career:       ● 14 W - 30L (regular season)       ● 0-1 playoffs record        ● 61.4% completion, 8291 passing yards, 49 TDs, 30 INTs  Year 1:       ● 2 wins, 14 losses      ● 60% completion rate, 2877 passing yards, 11 TD to 10 INTs, 5.5 yards per attempted pass Year 2:        ● 4 wins , 8 losses        ● 60.9% completion rate,  2403 passing yards, 15 TD, 9 INTs,  6.3 yards per attempted pass  Year 3:        ● 8 Wins, 8 Losses         ● 63.6% competition rate, 3011 passing yards, 23 TDs to 11 INTs  Playoffs         ● 1 game in year 3 ( 0 - 1 in playoffs)         ● 21/40 (52.5% completion rate), 264 passing yards, 1 TD, 1 INT.
