you are failing to acknowledge what a hole it puts a team in when the learn a new system early in a season....we have new schemes on both sides of the ball........and had no OTA's etc. which makes the hole we start in HUGE.

Cards are inserting a new QB in an established scheme. That is pretty significant compared to what we are doing.

Look i'm no idiotic homer who is saying were making the playoffs. But this is one of the winnable games on my list, which yes is a fairly short list obviously.

to each their own....I just don't see week 1 being winnable. Not w/ new schemes and no OTAs.....and a rookie QB. We are working on installing and other teams are working on perfecting. That means we realistically should me a lot more errors (self inflicted than a team like AZ).

I think AZ is one of our weaker opponents....but I think we have a better shot at beating better teams once we legitimately have things rolling along a tad further.

We will see....would like to be wrong but winning in week 1 would be much tougher than say beating Tampa in meeting #2.

Right now, almost anything could happen. If the running game works, and the dline plays a little better than it did in preseason, it could be close. If not, then we might just get drubbed.

yeah, I am also factoring in that Double Trouble hasn't done squat really when a season opens since they have been formed.

Sure they do. Stop the run. Standard Smitty coverage......pressure the rookie QB (and there is enough tape to no his footwork goes to hell when pressured) and no every pass is going to a TE as no other WR can get open in single coverage.

We have WRs who can get open. We just don't have any who can catch.

Arizona had one of the worst defenses and worst offenses last year. They had one (maybe 2) quality wins and got blown out by some really bad teams. And beaten by us.

Unless Kolb is that good we should have a chance to hang around

Could be a terrible game to watch though.

Kolb isn't that good. He has done less then Matt Moore. One team every 2 years falls for this Andy Reid trick. He makes a QB look great in his system then he trades them for TOP players and Picks. Setting the team who traded for the player back a few years. Zona is this years sucker.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      Valid, and throw in that what Wilson and Smith did is not out of the ordinary for a WCO

      The season is over, and we're going to get clowned on by Mayfield and Darnold before it's over.

      Darnold was pretty bad until last year.  He implodes mentally, its just what he does.  To this day I dont have a problem with letting him walk.   Baker is a bit different.  He was an ass in Cleveland and they couldnt deal with his poo, but he at least had talent and went to the playoffs.  So you know he could play at least.  There were different stories coming out from the time he got here, competing with Sam and then the practice team release fiasco.  Both good and bad.  Some say he was a good teammate others say he bitched behind the scenes.   From what it appears his wife has worked with him and he calmed down and his play has reflected that.  Tampa loves him.  So if we were going to keep one it probably should have been him but man he was really bad for us.  But to his defense he didnt get the first team reps until late into camp.     In obvious hindsight we should have signed Baker cheap, drafted a dude and let the cards play out, but you know the rest of the story and now we are going to have to watch bryce for 2 more years

      Again his one year calling plays happened to be Baker's lowest YPA not counting his split year hear.  That tells me he was less aggressive with a QB who likes to be aggressive.  We have that and almost 2 full years of Bryce Ball here in Carolina.  He will take some deeps shots as most offenses have to in order to keep the defense honest.  Quick passes and hopeful YAC.  I'll give you one guess to which year Rachaad White had the most receptions as TB's RB?  Remember the first thing he wanted to do here is focus on how quickly he wanted to get the ball out.  That's part of his recipe to help QBs and help his OL.  Run the ball, quick passes to hopefully players in space, sprinkle in a little PA.   So yeah you can look at some coaches he learned under and speculate, but I am telling you what he literally is doing and has done as a play caller.  Offenses that were and are 100% his baby.
