Denver NT DJ Jones. Potential FA target
SmokinwithWilly replied to raleigh-panther's topic in Carolina Panthers
No less so than not having one to start with. -
It's kind of like the old Faces of Death movies. You know it's going to be bad. But there's just something about it that makes you sit down and watch it just to see how awful it's going to be.

Anyone left who does not believe in Bryce ?
SmokinwithWilly replied to Frank9999's topic in Carolina Panthers
I don't believe in Bryce yet. I need to see a complete season, and wins against teams that are contenders on a regular basis. Do I like how he looks at the moment? Yes. My biggest concern ATM is how he's going to look when we can't constantly spend our 1st and 2nd rounders and a ton of cap space in FA to surround him. -
What's your confidence level in Canales?
SmokinwithWilly replied to Mr. Scot's topic in Carolina Panthers
Still a meh for me. 2 wins to 5 wins isn't that big of a deal. Remember how much we screamed Rhule sucked and he was a 5 win coach. Rebuilt the oline? More like bought the oline. Most expensive line in the NFL. Plus this would be more of a Morgan thing than a DC. Unlocking Bryce's potential is a wait and see. Bryce looked like ass to start, got benched and then began to play well once the season was essentially over. That's a load of pressure off the QB. Do I like where BY is trending, yes. Can he do it for a full season? We'll see. Chuba as a 1k yard rusher. Most expensive line in the NFL. If we had less than a 1k yard rusher I'd be pissed. Chuba has looked much better as a receiver and has obviously put in the work. Do we have a HC? Yes. Is he going to be a good one? Way too soon to tell IMO. -
If nothing else, Morgan should take a huge lesson from Miami this year and actually try to improve the QB2 position.

Wouldn't you too though? If CJ was his choice, and judging just by the type of QB Frank tended to coach, he was, Tepper coming in and making that choice for him just cut his legs out. Would you want to work somewhere that you were required to be the leader but weren't allowed to lead?

AR was my pick but only with the right coach, and he needed to sit the 1st season which wasn't going to happen. He needed Shanahan, Campbell, or one of the Harbaughs. Those are the only teams where I think he had a reasonable chance to grow and learn. AR with Frank was going to be a match made in hell.

I get what you're saying. These couple of wins are virtually meaningless because half this team isn't going to be here next year. We have a serious lack of talent all over and being able to trade away the 1st for what we gave up to Chicago could go a long way towards adding premier pieces the next couple of years. A couple of 1sts or a 1st swap with a couple 2nds and 3rds could let us add premium talent at certain positions. I like what we're seeing from Bryce but I want to see more across a full season. I don't know if he is or isn't the guy. This will be an interesting off season but I'm not ready to declare we're playoff bound after going 5-12 with wins over teams with god awful defenses. I think he deserves to be the #1 QB for us going into camp, but we still need competition because we should always be trying to improve the position and we're 1 hit away from career changing injury (see Cam).

It all depends on the asking price. If he wants to be paid like a top 5 LT, you have to be prepared to let him walk or tag n trade. I don't want to get rid of him, but I also don't want to pay him like an elite pass blocking LT when he is not.
-
He's about to have the worst defense in NFL history and our run defense was ass even when Brown was healthy. Even if he were to be smaller, he has to be a monster in the middle. Anything less and hes getting blown off the LoS. He's been influential in getting his type of players and this is the result.
-
You can't run an effective 3-4 without a monster NT and this FO has never really committed to the 3-4 front since Ron switched to it. It's not all Evero's fault, but there's plenty of blame to go around for this defense being this bad.

But we'll remember the sweet taste of victory over the Cardinals forever! Or at least until April.
