Josh Norman reaction to loss: "I don't know what to say. We just get our hearts ripped out every week. Down like this? Four seconds (left)."

Also, Steve Israel just said on the post game show, "I've never seen anything like this. This is my team and it's just gut wrenching... Had to change coverages or something... Don't know why we aren't covering everything (referring to preparation and coaching)."

a rookie is upset about a loss? rivera's in-game ability sucks, agreed. but destroying the future? that's a little rash.

What do you call it?

CJ already insinuated he was hoping the coaches were the ones fired last week. It's not just losing when guys are saying "getting your heart ripped out."

I dunno man - I get concerned about players mentality too.

You take these kids and keep putting them in situations where they could and should win but sabotage them? Not everyone is going to maintain an edge under that.

Moral victories aren't going to cut it for a full season.

don't know if he's referring to the coaching here

but yea this season is somehow topping last year as far as close, heart shattering losses.... even when we were up 19-7, I knew we would somehow find a way to lose... this has been the theme of the Rivera Era

As I said before, we're in the mess we're in now and stuck with this cloud hanging over the team and in the locker room because we let Fox hang around way too long after he lost the team and stopped caring.

According to CJ, the players gave up on Rivera and/or his staff weeks ago. When he keeps losing games with his decisions and these guys are out there giving it their all, the only way to deal with it is to compartmentalize - play the game, lose it, forget about it, get used to it.

LOL Sure...

Did you see what he said after last week's loss?

whatever he said after last week's lost is irrelevant after his play on the field today. if anything, the coaches lit a fire under his ass [as well as the rest of the d-line]. that doesn't sound like 'destroying' our future.

No it's not irrelevant. He's not playing for coaches, he's playing to win. Yet, the coach that they already don't like and don't want to play for sabotages his efforts again today... It starts to weigh on you.

Hardy has been doing fine. Today things went his way on the stat sheet. I'm not going to give Ron credit for what Hardy did.

      He'd be a huge upgrade for this year, but we're still not going to be contenders with him and I'd rather keep the cap space to roll into next season to spend on a younger player who can be an impact starter for us for the next 3-5 years while we're hoping to contend.

      Because playoff hockey and regular season hockey aren’t the same thing.  It’s a combination of the game intensity being dialed up with loose officiating.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      The last 8 weeks, Nix had 2,022 yards, 21 TDs, 6 INTs on 70% completions While Bryce's last 8 games he had 1,709 yards, 12 TDs (albeit adding 5 more rushing), 3 INTs on 61% completions. I'm not going to pretend I watched those Broncos games to know exactly how Nix actually looked, but in retrospect, his statistics were better.  Hell, in just his final 8 games, Nix had only 5 less TD passes than Bryce has in his 30 game (28 starts) career. And you said he had better WRs than Bryce did, but I'm not even sure that's even true either. Sutton and Thielen might be completely different types of WRs, but I'd say they are pretty equal on effectiveness if not even a slight edge to Thielen (63.6 YPG for Sutton to 61.5 for Thielen).  Then XL and Coker vs Marvin Mims and Devaughn Vale, again, at worst a push, if not lean in our favor there too. Why is it so hard for some Panthers fans to just objectively look at our team/Bryce and be honest with themselves. ? He was significantly improved the final two months of the season from his first season and a half.  But he was still a below average QB during that time, even if he had a few good throws and clutch moments.
