Oh you guys will beat us, we are in the same position now as you guys were last year. A team just going through the motions, in shambles and quit on our HC. We are coming off a demoralizing loss and are standing at 2-7, yu guys are going to be playing lights out for a wild card. Im stunned Vegas has the Bucs as just 2 point favorites, im taking that bet all day.

can you please show me where and when this team has quit on out HC.

Bucs roll into town dead last in NFL pass defense

... the Panthers couldn't show up again on their schedule at a more convenient time. We will be sure and help their pass D gain a little confidence for the final stretch.

I just put 10 guys in the box and let Ronde figure out the pass defense.

Yeah I was a bit taken back by those odds but the fact is, it's a divisional game. You beat the Saints who aren't playing bad at all right now. You almost beat the Falcons who I figure are a bit over rated but a really good team still. Every divisional NFC south game played so far has been really close and came down to the final drive except your game vs the saints so it's not insane to expect a close one.

But the good news is, a new coach and new GM can do wonders for a team. Even though Lafell shows flashes, I'm not a big fan of his and I don't think he's a legit #2. Hopefully for you guys Smitty has a little gas in the tank left and the new FO might give him a little help on the field receiver wise. Olsen can't Block for crap but he's excellent in the passing game. Not sure what the issue is with your run game. I have to assume it's the o line since I can't believe two dominant backs just decided to fall off the map in the same year suddenly.

Cam needs time and he also needs a coach that knows how to not only utilize him properly, but also teach him how to play the position NFL wise. I don't think the current staff has a clue in that area and no QB is completely NFL ready when entering the league. Luckily for us we grabbed Sullivan as our OC and he was Eli's QB coach in NY. He's really helped Freeman and he looks like a whole new QB.

Defensively I would say your front seven has talent but play inconsistently for some reason. Sometimes the pass rush looks beastly and some games it's not there. Same with the run d. Pass d wise, Josh Norman looks legit and Munnerlyn is solid enough but for Christ sakes, sit Nakamura. Better yet cut him and get him as far away from BoA as possible. He looks like a clown out there 40 yards off the line of scrimmage stumbling around trying his best to impersonate a real NFL safety. No excuse for him being on the field I don't care what else he does. He can't cover at all and needs to go.

You ever thought about being a Panthers fan? Haha, anyways, good posting dude... here's to a competitive game on both sides, but I hope we kill you guys seeing as this is the one game I have tickets to this season.

Poor Cam came into a shitstorm of epic magnitudes and is trying his best to grow up in it.

we have never lost a game because we threw too much.

we have never lost a game because we ran too little.

we have never won a game because we threw less than 35 times.

we have never won a game because we ran 25+ times.

the number of times we throw or run has nothing to do with a win or a loss.

throw those stats out the window in this discussion because it's meaningless.

      In my opinion Fitterer was probably right about not paying McCaffrey. Now not wanting to "pay RBs" in my opinion isn't something you want to set in stone, to me it all comes down to the individual.

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      Maybe I'm just not understanding, but everywhere that I have read says that signing bonuses go against the cap prorated by as much as five years. The following example uses Andrew Luck's rookie contract as an example. "Take Andrew Luck, the first overall pick in the 2012 NFL draft. Luck signed a four-year contract with the Colts worth $22.1 million and included a $14.5 million signing bonus. Rather than a $14.5 million cap hit in 2012, the Colts spread out his signing bonus over the life of his contract. The hit against the cap would be $3.625 million per year over four years instead of a direct cap hit of $14.5 million directly in 2012. This gave the Colts more leverage and cap flexibility in signing other players." https://www.the33rdteam.com/nfl-signing-bonuses-explained/ I don't know why some of you think that signing bonuses aren't counted against the cap over the length of the contract, but whatever.   "The bonus with a signing is usually the most garish aspect of a rookie contract. Bonus is the immediate cash players receive when they ink a deal. It factors into the cap, but only for the whole contract duration, in terms of salary cap calculations. In the case of Bryce Young’s $24.6 million signing bonus, that’s prorated to approximately $6.15 million per season over a four-year deal. This format allows teams to handle the cap and provides rookies with some short-term fiscal stability, which is important given the high injury risk in this league." https://collegefootballnetwork.com/how-rookie-contracts-work-in-the-nfl/ I understand how signing bonuses can be a useful tool in order to manage the cap, and as one of the article suggests, signing bonuses may become important if you have a tight cap, but the bill is always going to come due. I'm not necessarily referring to you Tuka, but it seems to me that others simply don't want to understand that fact which is why they're reacting to what I'm saying negatively. How odd. In any event, I have a better general understanding of why signing bonuses are used now, and it's generally to fit salaries under the cap. Surely players, whether they be rookies or not, love a signing bonus because they get a good portion of their money up front. This in turn gives them more security and probably amounts to tax benefits as well. I also understand why teams would not want to use signing bonuses, particularly for players or draftees who have a higher probability of being gone before a contract even ends.
