Tampa wins and we're only 1 game back.

4th and a short 2 and you have Tolbert and Cam and if we fail they have the same amount of field to score. My thought process is that should the Panthers fail to convert, it's possible the Bills play for a field goal instead of a TD with no time outs. I like our chances of converting there though and we were running all over the Bills on that drive.

 

It was actually 4th and 1, not 4th and 2...which makes it even more insane.  However, I feel like Rivera would have kicked the FG if it was 1st and 10.

Yeah I didn't expect him to go for it either. But by now he should recognize he needs to step out of his comfort zone to win. I just feel that with Marrone there and it being early the Bills would've gone for a field goal to get into field goal. Our defense is not good when defending and offense with nothing to lose at the end of the game.

Shades of Chicago, Atlanta, Detroit, Atlanta, Buffalo, Tampa. How many more names must we add to this list before Rivera steps outside his box.

I will give him credit, I'm sure we had that last play pinned down but DJ Moore was playing the slant again instead of his man.

And, if Tampa loses to NO, were only 2 games back. And were only 1 game out of the wildcard spot!!!

It's a long season.

Winning is a process.

We just have to execute better.

Now that our shitty secondary is worse. The difference without Josh Thomas blew my mind and it was stupid of him to dive head first after the guy was on his way down.

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
