With Chud at the helm, I am not going to even try and guess what he will come up with as regards to utilizing Smitty. Which just gets me that more excited. As long as Chud is around, we are going to be one exciting team to watch.

I have a feeling Chud won't be around much longer, if he has as much success as he did last year. A team is gonna offer him a HC job.

Chud will be gone less than 8 months from now. Mark it and hope that the Panthers organization can decipher what he has in that playbook.

So Chud will be gone before the season even ends? Wow, that is bold.

It is not the deciphering of the playbook. It is the ability to call one play that leads to the next. Which in turns leads to a play down the line. It is having the balls to call a play no one else even thought of. It is the imagination to use your talent to there fullest. It is the flexibilty to think outside the box, and have it translate to the field.

It is not the playbook we loose with Chud. It is his innate abiltiy to put imagination into reality. That is what we loose when Chud leaves. He has a first class mind, which on its own is impressive. But, the ability to transfer thought into reality is a rare gift. We best enjoy it while it lasts.

The anti Monkey hit. We ain't your steppin stone. Let it ring loud. Let ring from the mountains to the ocean. Leave our Chud alone.

Anyone who seriously believes Chud will get tagged for a HC job is seriously unaware of how the head coach process is done. There's only 32 jobs to go around, with several of them available each year, and only one or two would consider someone without head coaching experience at any level of football.

Also, as much as I'm glad Chud is here, he's not really head coach material, because his media savvy is almost non-existent, and a head coach has to be a full-time face of the franchise. Everything I've heard about his interviews said that teams liked him, but really only as an OC.

Nah, I think Smitty will still line up wide. He can stretch the field better than Gettis and can dominate the sideline and plant his toes better than Lafell. I think David will start off in the slot and might be able to overtake Brandon for the #2 spot if he balls.

I can't remember where I read it, but last year at training camp I remember some talk that Gettis showed up faster than Smitty. I know playing on the outside requires more than straight line speed, but I think with his height, Gettis might be able to relieve Smith on the outside in certain situations. All this assuming Gettis is fully recovered, and studied up on the playbook.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t think people are saying that picking up the option s a call for the pitchforks. We would have had to do things differently a couple of years back to make declining the option a valid move. We didn’t and here we are. People largely accept that. The patter it adheres to, reinforces the nausea we feel when the idea of an extension, and at top of the market no less, comes up.  One that he hasn’t shown he deserves.   Same as he did not deserve to be drafted 1.1. Look at Pavia and what really is the difference? Bryce is a nice guy and Pavia is an asshole lol. They are both no margin for error non day one talents. One went undrafted.

      We hate losing. I don't know Bryce to hate him. His play as a QB, I absolutely hate. It's just not good enough. If there were a lottery held to select the order and all 32 starting QBs could be drafted as the starting QB for whatever team selected them, how long do you think it would be before Bryce's name was called? Top 10, top 20, bottom 8? Think about it.  For me, having never seen back to back games with franchise QB level performance in 3 years tells me what I need to know. We still need to be looking for our solution at QB.

      Dude, I'm saying the Cardinals have proven they know nothing. Not saying keeping Bryce is the best choice long term, just saying that we've made the right move for this moment in time.  But man, the Cardinals are never a blueprint for success. Haven't been since they were in Chicago.
