People love to bash him.....and did love to praise Chud.

McD is showing adjustments post NYG fiasco. He is calling some decent games. Getting some good production. His D looks to be taking some positive steps. You aren't seeing repetitive status quo. If something blows up on him one week....he is working to fix it.

There were no players last year for him to really survive last year. I think he is showing adjustments week to week this season. Outside of the NYG game....the D has showed up more so than the offense. Guy should get a little credit. He isn't pulling a Chud each week.

Seattle converted way too many 3rd downs today. Oh, and what happened to this "attacking" style defense I've been hearing so much about? We're the least blitzing 4-3 defense in the NFL.

Oh and what coach rotates free safeties throughout a game on defense?

I say all this to say, I blame Rivera for the defense more than I do McDermott. Always have, always will!

Probably a coach that has poo safties.....try to make one good one using the two.

Russel Wilson has the best game of his career, DC gets credit?

Seattle scored 1 TD....DeAngelo gave them the ball at the 27. That was it. Held them to 16 points.

We would have killed for that a year ago....

Well Sherrod showed tonight that he's 10 times better than Nakamura. Even when he was out of place, he was in much better position to make a play than Naka.

Nakamura on the other hand, went back to hiding 30 yards off the ball, and then had the nerve to point fingers at Captain when he was out of position. Nakamura was lined up so far back, Wilson completed a 30yard pass and Naka couldn't even close fast enough to tag the guy down.

Actually Martin was lined up 30 yards off the ball as well, which per Rivera, was a Nakamura thing, that he brought over from the Ravens, but I knew that wasn't the case in the first place.

A lot of those 3rd downs were converted because we were playing 11 on 9, with both safeties lined up on fuging Morehead st.

They line up where they are told to line up. They don't just pick a place on their own.

The defense played pretty well but...

Seahawks rank last in the NFL in passing, and 28th in scoring.

Not exactly a juggernaut.

Their WRs were open all game and often had 5 yards of open space after they caught the pass.

Also a plethora of missed tackles again.

The offense lost the game for us but our defense is still suspect.

      You're assuming just as well.   Morgan and Canales were hired 3 days apart.  I believe it was partially due to their connections in Seattle.  i believe Tepper wanted some familiarity with his GM and HC.  It is so easy to sit back and arm-chair QB over draft picks.  You don't know what the philosophy was going into the 2024 draft.  I believe Canales and Morgan were drafting for the future.  XL and Brooks point to that philosophy. Name me one GM that is 100% on draft picks.  Just one.  You're not going to find one.    I think year one picks weren't for what can you do for me now but Potential.   XL hasn't lived up to the hype of a 1st rounder.  I think we all can agree on that. However, there still is hope he comes around.  What I believe they saw in him was his speed after the catch.  He needs to get more consistent but when he gets the ball you kind of hold your breath just a second because if he gets free, he's gone.  The Brooks pick was a signing for the future, and no one could have guessed he would re-injure the same ACL.  This makes the pick look bad but Dallas was ready to draft him later that same round.  IMO we'll have to see what happens next season before we can call this a bust. Wallace has improved each season and for a third rounder has done well.  Sanders has shown flashes and considering the pick in the 4th round it wasn't a bad pick.  His sophomore season IMO was a little bit more productive.  Smith-Wade has been a good addition and has played well.  For a 5th round pick to get as much playing time as he has.  Most picks below round 3 should take a couple of years to get up to speed.  He's been a decent player.  Crumedy, no comment We turned Barrett into Jackson.  This was an amazing move and basically got a starting CB for a 7th round pick.  Pretty shrewd if you ask me. Coker, maybe the best Free Agent signing of the 2024 draft class. So, in short, you can't say that the draft was a bust.  It isn't a home run but all but one are still on the team and outside of Brooks have made contributions to wins.  2025 draft class has been much better with almost every pick making contributions this season.  Now take Fitterer's two years and compare them to Morgan and tell me that they have the same philosophy.

      Bryce Young is the first Panthers QB to throw for 20+ touchdowns in a season since Cam Newton in 2018.

      He hasn’t led crap, he’s on loaded teams and a piece of the puzzle. And he’s he has improved drastically but it took the ultimate QB whispers in Shanahan and KOC. You put him on this Panther team and he’s back to normal Darnold

      Slavin and Jarvis week to week. Florida cheap shots took out our two best players.  I’d start KK so he can beat the brakes off someone.
