Levis cooking, Henry pounding.

Levis getting hot.

Good job getting Henry's legs. Don't challenge him up high.

Levis looking nice and calm. Good form.

O-line doesn't know the plays. The o-line coach has to go.

Fire the o-line coach.

Oh ok the Titans are terrible. No wonder Vegas had a 3.5 point spread.

I hope the team practiced throwing the ball forward a significant distance and catching it. Bonus if we practiced running forward after the catch.

So we had Rhule, who is basically a creepy used car salesman type, and now Reich who comes off as a tired grandpa ready for retirement. When are we getting an offensive guru bursting with energy? Not any time soon as no one highly talented wants to come here.

I don't know if you guys know this or not, but Corbett was crying after the Texans game because he was so happy to be back.

And wasn't he hurt on the last play, or last series?

I think the top priority has to be fixing the o-line. Start in the trenches and work your way outward. If we can't afford to fix the o-line and bring in a #1 WR, then you fix the o-line first. If you bring in a #WR it won't matter due to the amount of pressure and sacks Young is enduring. 2024 address the trenches. Extra money or picks? Go get a better WR than D.J Chark.

"Corbett reinjured his repaired left knee on Sunday." Oh no. Makes me think of Thomas Davis.

It wasn't an extension he was restructured as Scott pointed out. It was a few months after he tore his ACL at the end of the season. Kind of kicking the can down the road. I misremembered that he got an extension instead of a restructure because I saw how many years his contract was and I didn't think he got that many years to start with.

Zavala is Nate Chandler 2.0. There's no moving him around to patch ANYTHING. Opposing teams are targeting Zavala to get easy sacks, and that's saying something because everyone on the line is a target sans Moton. Holy fug.

I'm starting to think I must have died or something and I'm in football hell and Fitt is the devil. This is just a muliti-season disaster that will take a new GM 3 years to repair. I can't with this situation.

Good thing Fitt extended Corbett right after he blew out his ACL the first time.

I knew something was seriously wrong when Fitt brought in Sam Darnold and thought he'd be our franchise QB. Even picked the 5th year option because he was that confident in his decision. I couldn't understand why we were trading a 2nd and 4th for Sam. No other team made an offer, and Sam was probably going to be cut or traded for lower round draft picks if we waited. Sam was a proven loser time and time again. Why trade so much for him and pick up his option? Why? Get him for peanuts and don't pick up the option. After the Sam disaster I knew something was fundamentally wrong with Fitt. He over offers on players who might not even be in the league in a few years. Not good. Any time a big decision needs to be made he screws it up. Why not trade Burns for 2 firsts and a second? What good our his sacks doing us now? Those picks were crucial to rebuild this mess. I truly hate Fitt. What I said above is what I said at the time. I said those things in the moment when Fitt was making the decision. That's not hindsight 20/20. I said it at the time, and those were the correct decisions. I'm no football guru and I had the basic common sense to know what was right. We have a GM who simply doesn't know what he's doing at all. Clearly. The most soul crushing players in Panthers history have been brought here by Fitt on bad deals. And now here we are with a rookie praying he will pan out. Well the team around him is hot garbage and Fitt built that team.

We have so many injuries along with a rookie QB who has not shown any progress, and offensive play calling that is senseless. I can't imagine a close game, but crazy things can happen on Sunday. We just had a crazy punt return TD, so it's not like odd things don't happen in our favor.

I'm slowly coming to terms with the idea that we might be drafting a QB #1 overall in the 2025 draft. It's not over for Young, but it's getting there.

We might as well switch to gap running and throw it a lot less if for no other reason than to protect Young from a serious injury. If you can't see that a serious injury to Young is on the way soon, then I don't know what to tell you.

I think they lined Parsons up against Zavala a few times if memory serves.

Sunday Zavala reminded me of Nate Chandler.
