I was screaming at the time for Fitt to trade him for 2 firsts and a second. Deal of a lifetime. Now we have an OLB who wants more money than he's worth, and he has that idea because of FItt. It was Fitt who refused the trade and made the statement that he was a cornerstone of our defense. Well he sure is sh!t is NOT that important to our defense AND he wants a mega deal. Fitt you idiot.

The offense we had before Frank was fired was the worst I've ever seen play calling wise. I couldn't believe me eyes, and not only were the calls terrible but they didn't suit our players, and I'm not just talking about the o-line, I mean the whole team. What we were trying to do would have been considered dated and ineffective in the early 2000s, and we would run the same awful plays over and over, so there was no mystery what was about to happen. After Frank was fired we still did horrendous ill suited plays, but we started to eliminate some of what wasn't ever going to work, and things got slightly better. We were adding stuff that had a chance to work and didn't look outright idiotic. The Frank firing was 100% justified and desperately needed. I don't know what to make of Thomas Brown. It's hard to judge him because he was saddled with Frank and Beans and that is just plain crippling. Even so, Thomas is going to get thrown out of BoA with cold blooded corporate efficiency. That dude is done and he might as well just move his personal affects out of his office now.

But bully Bozeman will be waiting for him......

I'm expecting a lot of records to fall this season because we're playing an extra game. Having said that, Brown has been on of the few bright spots in this otherwise abysmal season.

I follow the team news year round. I was never out. I'd like to get rid of Fitt because he's made too many critical mistakes in his tenure here. That would be a good start, but we can't fix this mess in one off season. We're going to be horrendous next season, but you'll still see me around here.

We experience coverage sacks/throw always, and actual sacks at too high of a rate. This points to the receivers, o-line, and QB not being good enough. Young is given a pass because he's a rookie throwing to losers like DJ Chark, and he has an o-line that features a LT who is incompetent, and second string guards. This makes it impossible to even properly evaluate Young, but I do think he looks terrible. That's not fair though because I'm just a fan and I don't have all the information. What do we do to start to fix the offense? Consider the last game where you saw Young holding his back in a lot of pain on the ground. Those types of hits are more likely to come from poor o-line play, so you try to fix the o-line first, and do what you can to improve the receiving corps with what you have left. That way you lessen the odds that Young, a player you gave up DJ, CMC, and the #1 overall pick for, doesn't become permanently damaged. There is no quick and easy fix. We're looking at a multi-year rebuild with a lot riding on Young improving from year to year. He looks terrible now, but the jury is still out.

If you asked me how to destroy the Panthers, or any NFL team, without anyone catching on, I would say do the following: Bring in QBs who have already failed at the NFL level. Trade any offensive players who are dominant at their position. Draft or bring in offensive linemen who can't pass block. Spend a lot of high draft picks on defensive players. Hold on to defensive vets with diamond hands. Build up the defense. Make a crazy expensive trade up for an undersized QB who might not be able to transition to the NFL. The next step to finish off the franchise would be to hand out mega contracts to the defensive players. If I were a spy for another team, then I'd be doing exactly what Fitt has done.

We have enough evidence that Fitt should be fired immediately, but I think Tepper likes having him around. I'd put the odds of Fitt being fired at low, but who knows?

We can't really tell much from the video. It's clear Tepper threw the drink, and he probably had an intended target. Did the drink actually hit anyone? We can't tell, and that's why you won't see an assault charge filed against Tepper. The main problem is that the person filming must own the cheapest phone on the market, so we're looking at well below 420p video quality. Tepper has always had a certain level of contempt for fans of ordinary means. Who can forget his "basement dwellers" comment? I wouldn't mind at all if he had an awful personality so long as the team is competitive on Sunday. But this dude is a nightmare owner AND insufferable as a person. It doesn't get any worse than this unless they relocate the team and we don't get a new one.

Otah's HoF level run blocking is the reason double trouble got their massive contracts. They ran behind him all the time and he battered and clubbed anyone in front of him. The problem with Otah was that all that violence he dealt out destroyed his body, and he blew his back out. Icky can't pass block to save his life, so we'll have to move him to LG and hope for the best. He's taller than you would want at OG but we're out of options. Icky can't be allowed to get our QB injured, and he's a constant threat of doing just that. Christensen can go to LT, or we can draft one.

Fitt's head scratching draft picks tanked this team. The Icky and Young picks are just devastating. Both look really bad at this point.

With our luck Tepper would divorce Nicole and she'd buy our expansion team. But in all seriousness I wouldn't miss any of these players, and a fresh start is needed, so yes I'd take the deal.

Let's be honest Tepper's arm looked stronger than Bryce's when he threw that drink.

Chuba well done. This helps us to kill the clock.

We're not benching Young because of all the draft capitol we spend on him, so he better wake up.

Please don't remind me about Fitt's blunder not trading Burns.

Haynes and Beathard both damaged their brains on that one.

Luvu probably playing hurt and trying to push the QB down. We know that's not how he plays.

Backup QB running all over the field.

We have the dumbest players.
