Everyone knows that we have a very tough matchup against ATL this weekend. The week after that we have the Seahawks, who currently have 8(!) sacks in the first half against the Packers.

The two areas of most concern are defense (can't stop run, terrible gameplans, nonexistent adjustments) and the offensive line play.

It is sobering to watch Russel Wilson out there looking like a seasoned pro. I can only imagine what Cam would look like in a more classic offensive style (one with actual heavy set running plays). I'm starting to think Chud might have drank too much of his own kool-aid this offseason.

Anyway, I think it's totally possible we turn this around. We just played the #1 defensive line in the league and an elite QB that picked us apart. We won't see another line that great, but Seattle is looking really really really scary. The coaches better step up their f'ing games, or heads should be rolling before the season is over.

I guess some good news is that know the entire country thinks we suck butt, so maybe we can sneak up on some teams.

if this is going to be a bad season and we see no coaching improvements, i honestly hope it's like 4-12 which is a top 5 and gives JR a reason to clean house instead of linger around at like 6-10 or so again because he'd probably give them another year. there is absolutely no excuse for us finishing with a worse record than we did last year

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
