Then why inject yourself into it with an argument that's wholly unrelated? Either of us can be critical of a player (and have been a lot) without rooting against them. I'm not as big a fan of XL the player as I am of XL the dude, but my point was I don't hope he drops his next three passes to justify my negativity. I don't begrudge anyone who thinks Bryce sucks, that's OK to think of any player. My point was that I couldn't want to win but also want one player to suck. This team isn't made up to overcome a lot of that.

By the way, I'm not a Dem...

If you can't tell the difference between being critical of someone and actively rooting for an implosion, you're probably not qualified to render as much judgment as you think.

I don't need the last word -- I'm only taking it because you want it.

I haven't seen a lot of rooting against people. A lot of being pessimistic about players or coaches, which is completely fair given their performances at various points.

Just so you know, I'm not giving you the pleasure of getting the last word.

No, I don't root against anyone on the team because they're my team. That's generally how it works for people whose IQs exceed 35.

He's week-to-week like a lot of guys on the roster, but this week was a great one.

Rooting against players on your team is pretty inexcusable unless they're a murderer or something. You can like them, dislike them, whatever, but rooting for the QB to implode is dogshit behavior and there's no way to backtrack that. But hey, maybe you get your wish and bitch about it for months.

This is pretty retarded.

AHH YEAH SCREW BAKER MAYFIELD, SCREW THE BUCS AND SCREW THE REFS!

Excuses. Kept the team out of the game Sunday.

Wasn’t good enough to tackle Tyler Shough once. I don’t pin the last one on him. The first one yeah, the last one was on the defense.

I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two.

We should just enjoy the final full season of the Canales Era right now.

The refs’ fault on Tuesday, Bryce Young’s fault on Sunday. Lather, rinse, repeat.

It’s not easy to begin with.

Saints have such a weak schedule. They literally play college teams from here. Falcons will somehow BS their way to 8 wins and that leaves us P4 as usual in the standings.

Wild how you can be leading the NFC South on Dec. 13, and end up finishing last. The Saints are gonna win out and finish with 7 wins and beat us on the tiebreaker, Falcons will win 3 more and our guaranteed 3 losses bag another last-place finish. This season was better than I expected for sure, win-wise, and there were some awesome upset wins — but finishing last while the Saints are on the rise and go from 2-10 to passing us in the standings removes a hell of a lot of goodwill I had for this franchise.

Weird way of spelling "Sean Gilbert".

Nah I've been to both many times. I'm a big Canes fan as well. Nothing topped the Panthers in the 2015 playoffs. I mean, 2006 for the Hurricanes probably was right there with it, but I was in school. Canes games are fun as hell (and stressful).

Canales likes taking risks (on and off the field). A lot of times this year (LAR for instance) they pay dividends. Tonight's another example of when they don't. 7-10 has earned him another year at least. Still got: - 1 heartbreaking, NFL-made-every-call-to-screw-us-and-someone-choked loss - 1 comfortable ass-kicked loss - 1 somewhat close loss to end the season.

It wasn't electric from 2010-18. Good teams create electric atmospheres.
