it was a very unimpressive performance and most realistic fans understand whats ahead of the team now. 

Being excited for this would be like people getting hyped over the musicians playing while the titanic sank

This is the epitome of the current Huddle with a lazy metaphor as a bonus.

Because we looked like dog poo against probably the worst team in the league and kept giving them chances to tie. 

So did Denver, Tampa, and Pittsburgh. 

This is the NFL, not college where you have to impress pollsters.  All you have to do is win and move on. 

That being said, no one here thinks we are SB contender's.  But its nice to be on the upside for a change.

We have a winning record for the first time in 4 years. We have a chance to show we are for real next week playing against a real quality opponent. Oh, and that game happens to be at home. Where we haven’t lost a game all season.

If the Bank isn’t pumping next weekend, I will be extremely disappointed. Because I’m freaking pumped after today.

This is Carolina. Play great defense and run the ball. That's what we've always been. It's fine for now, but would love to see the team become more of an offensive passing team. But for now, a win is a win. And this is a win, the Panthers' way. 

Buffalo has 31st ranked run defense

The Jets  are winless this season & one of the few teams in the NFL with a starting QB worse than ours; and we still only won this game by 7 points. The defense played well, but our offense should have had the team well ahead in the 4th quarter. The Jets still had a chance to tie this game on their last possession. If the Jets had started Tyrod Taylor they very well could have won this game. This victory wasn't nearly as impressive as the last two.

I mean the Bronco's only won by 1, but no one there is complaining.

    • Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that. 
    • I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
