Relax. We are off to a slow start.

Look at Miami. They had a bad day. Anyone can have a bad day. In 3 months, the Jags could be the best team in the NFL. Who knows? Maybe we'll see them in the SB this year.  Lol. Ok. I spit. You know what I mean. Let's wait a couple of weeks before we burn the house down. That is all. Continue firing and benching everyone.

We weren't prepared to play.  I think we have a false sense of confidence based on practicing against our own defense (and vice versa).  Putting in no preseason work and shitting the bed out of the gate again, Cannales acting bewildered about how different the team looked against his expectations.  The real serious issue may be that we have coaches with no perception until they get their teeth kicked in by a 4 win team with a new coaching staff.

We have Horn, Brown, Hunt, Lewis & McMillan for the future.  Really, it's 5 guys at best.

Hubbard is nice, but RBs come and go unless they're world beaters.  The rest of the roster on both sides is entirely replaceable.  I know it is because we've replaced it like 3 times since Cam left.

Scott nor Morgan rebooted the scouting department.  It's been mostly the same this entire time since Rhule's start (and many before).  There's nothing to relax from.  There were no expectations and everyone is still completely amazed by the lack of really anything watchable.  

Not to be doom and gloom, but there's not much else anymore to say.

The Panthers are dead. No one worth a sh*t would willingly work for this franchise. It’s all rejects and nobodies. I will never forgive David Tepper’s arrogant ass for ruining this franchise. He can give out as many charity dinners and coat drives as he wants but the fact remains he killed a fun team to be a fan of.

We're more than halfway through this decade and it's been a complete waste.

Test ran Teddy two-gloves, went XFL-alum, burned through (and failed) 2 competent starters that are still going hard (Darnold, Mayfield), drafted Corral (lol), traded up for Bryce (this counts for like 3 tries), have had the ginger fluttering about.  

0-7 since Cam.  

Thank you, please try again Panthers.

I am not even certain Hunt/Lewis are core players because they came on massive contracts. Likely the last contracts they will get here, TBH.

I love TMac but let's not call that shot quite yet. Especially at that position.

I also question the entire scouting department. Makes me wonder if we even have people in the building capable of making good hires there.

Might want to take a look at Darnold's game today if you think he is competent. Jets/Minny playoffs Darnold is back.

    • For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.  
    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
