often times it is just a matter of talent. The teams that win usually have several guys on each side of the ball that are just truly talented. Whether it is speed, height, size. Our guys tend to not be as talented as the teams we face. That is why Cam coming here is such a big deal. We haven't taken the guy that was truly a physical monster since Julius Peppers, be it either FA or the draft. IMO that is why Hurney is not here. It wasn't the Win/Loss column it was the fact that the contracts didn't match the talent. I don't mean to say that our guys are not good players. We have some guys that are true warriors and we have to definitely have one teams with the most heart in the league. But ask yourself how many guys on our defense can say they are among the biggest, or most powerful at there position? Or how many of our skill guys on offense can say they are the fastest.

Yeah our guys are fast or big enough to be in the league. They are definitely skilled enough and with scheme they can compete with anybody. But if you ask me, what we are missing is talent. This is the NFL, and everybody is really good. Hard work and dedication separates the good from the great, but sometimes you just gotta be bigger and faster than the other guys. Case and point Torry Smith vs Champ Bailey tonight, or the Seahawks secondary all season long.

    • It’s definitely a bit of a crapshoot, but Joe covers the team for a living—there’s a baseline expectation that he should have a deep, working knowledge of the roster, positional groups, and overall team needs. That kind of familiarity should come through in the analysis. At times, though, it feels more like he approaches covering the Panthers as an assignment rather than something he’s genuinely invested in. When you read some of the other beat writers at The Athletic, the contrast stands out. There’s a noticeable difference in how deeply they dive into roster construction, scheme fits, player development, and front office philosophy. Their work often feels more detailed, more nuanced, and more connected to the day-to-day reality of the team. That’s not to say Joe doesn’t provide value, but compared to some of his peers, the level of insight and depth just doesn’t always feel as sharp or as thorough as it could be
    • Per Tony Pauline: https://www.essentiallysports.com/nfl-active-news-sources-giants-heavily-weighing-wr-with-ten-pick-amid-malik-nabers-injury-concerns-david-bailey-a-game-changer-for-robert-saleh/ Surprise Picks In The First Round As we get closer to the draft, the chatter is getting louder about surprise picks in the bottom half of Round 1. So which teams are talked about as pulling shockers right now, just a few days out from the start of the draft? Most I’ve spoken with say keep an eye on picks 20, 21, and 22, presently owned by the Dallas Cowboys, Pittsburgh Steelers, and Los Angeles Chargers. I’m told cornerback Chris Johnson and linebacker Jacob Rodriguez are in play for the Cowboys with the 20th pick, their second selection in the initial round. Rodriguez is also being spoken about as a possibility for the Buffalo Bills at the 26th pick.   
    • Who was better Jon Beason or Jrod???, for college prospect terms in their drafts...   I think its clear and Jon was what 25th?   Jarod does have luke-like traits and that was 9th overall.   I feel Jon had him covered tho....
