Yeah, sign me up for that one too.

:iagree: I'm hoping we can accomplish this in the draft IF Peppers is traded. More talent on the DL would do wonders for the D.

I hope you're not referring to Trgovac here because he did NOT leave on his own.

I don't think he was referring to Trgo, but the other defensive assistants did leave on their own. You probably knew that, though.:biggrin5:

Another parallel is that all those winning seasons up until they won the Super Bowl, a huge part of the Giants fan base and media were screaming for Coughlin's head.

Thanks for not crying. All those tears were sinking my post.

Eli's too. Another forgotten thing was about how much they were written off when Tiki Barber retired.

what a superficial parallel at best.

They had a young average QB who hasn't really gotten any better. We don't.

They had an up and coming defensive line that was only going to be built better over the next few years. Jury's still out and I'd like to see us get 4 deep at DE like they did. And I'm talking 10-sack guys here, guys who wouldn't need to split time on another team.

Most importantly, they had a critical trait we don't. Accountability. The Giants powerwashed the defense after the Philly game in '06. Tim Lewis=gone. Something we ourselves weren't up to the task of doing, that in our case our assistants left on their own accord.

Fixed it for you

We may see some growing pains this year also. Really dont know at the moment but Im sure the scheme will be different.

I agree they will likely have growing pains under Meeks, that's why I was pointing that out. I should have made that more clear, my bad.

They went 8-8 the season after.

And made the playoffs. The difference? When the Cats went 8-8 in 2006 they missed the playoffs due to the stupid NYG beating the stupid Redskins the night before the Cats beat the Saints. Should have been Carolina! Argh. (That's what happens when you don't handle your own business though and have to count on other teams. It's still frustrating, however!!)

Fixed it for you

And will be paying him an azzload more money for about the same level of performance as (and in some instances worse than) Jake's. Eli's defense dominated in his SB, Jake's didn't...that's the difference.

Oh wait...I forgot, we have learned over the years and especially this offseason that Hurney iz dumm. D'oh...nevermind...carry on! :D

      I’m guessing both.

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      https://nfltraderumors.co/2026-nfl-draft-grades-for-all-32-teams/      Grade: B+ Best Pick: Sam Hecht Biggest Reach (consensus rank): Jackson Kuwatch (NR) It's easy to love what Carolina did. The Panthers traded four times but ended the draft with the same number of selections that they started with and in approximately the same ranges. They did not take a player ahead of the consensus until Kuwatch at No. 227, and it's easy to see how he fell through the cracks playing at Miami of Ohio. He's a high-end athlete, though, and has a chance to develop, which is a fine profile for a seventh-rounder. Freeling and Brazzell also checked the high-end athleticism upside boxes for the Panthers. Carolina let the board come to them in the first round and could have a long-term solution at left tackle, which is a hard position to fill. Brazzell slid because of some maturity concerns as well as the difficulty in projecting receivers from Tennessee's Mickey Mouse offense. At 6-4, 200 pounds and 4.37 in the 40, though, the upside is undeniable. On top of that, the landed three starters on Day 3. Normally that's a high and unrealistic bar, but Hecht and Wheatley were both firmly inside the top 100 on the consensus board and have paths to win starting competitions. Lee fits the scheme well and has some interesting traits as an outside corner. What stopped me from a full-out A grade is not loving the Hunter pick, though he does fill a need to replace DT A'Shawn Robinson. There were prospects at other needs positions I would have been more jazzed about. The Brazzell pick is also an interesting risk for a team that's still in building mode, even coming off an NFC South title. Still, I'm nitpicking

      I was just a teenager when I joined in 2013. I've loved the many opinions on this forum, even though several are infuriating. I've had several bad takes, myself,  that I've hopefully grown out of over the years.
