Was going to point this out. We ran it... once this entire quarter and that was the very first play. Don't understand what they're trying to do out there in terms of evaluation.

I will say we're not getting absolutely run over on every play. I'd like to think that qualifies as an improvement.

Absolutely need to see what Plummer can do because Dalton may not even have enough anymore to fill in for one full game without falling apart. ...and special teams! What the... the one unit that has looked terrible all night.

Did NFLN during halftime even talk about what the Panthers did for even one second?

What's with the O-line looking this rough? Also, another special teams mistake with the penalty.

Special teams looking the not good kind of special.

Not a smart move by XL but otherwise solid drive and more importantly, we finished with a TD. Also, Bryce already looking comfortable looking McMillan's way.

But they finally did talk about Bryce... for about a minute.

Chargers may actually be more cursed than us with injuries. Literally just paid him and wham! Out. That's just cruel.

Personally, it's not that big of a margin... yet. As of now, Thielen is still our best receiver. McMillan could be great, but it's all potential until we start playing real games. Coker had good moments but can he show us he can be Thielen's successor? XL has to start catching these balls or he'll join the too long list of Panthers WR failures. I have more optimism with the TE room solely because one player isn't here anymore.

You call the Cowboys purely for information, but we don't have the assets to pull off any realistic trade. Also, even if they would consider any trade, it's more likely they want to do it with an AFC team.

That's why we have practice. All players involved will get better with more repetition. Give props to Jaycee for picking it off, though. That's why we kept him. Now do that in real games, please.

4 again with the mailbox. Like, c'mon dude. You're a rookie. You can't be calling for the ball like that. Probably got that from 19.

Most important news is whether we have any important players getting hurt, so today not the best of days because of Zavala.

If nothing else, Renfrow gives all the young other receivers an idea of what it takes to run a great route.

My expectations for this upcoming season are higher than last season. That said, I can only see playoffs with a lot of things lining up. We need enough of these young players to make a meaningful impact, we need others in our division to falter, and most importantly, we need some luck in keeping this unit relatively healthy throughout the season. At full strength, this team has potential to be scrappy good but we don't have the margin of error others teams do.

Seen that highlight many times over, but I've yet to find the full game anywhere. Incredibly, we still could've lost that game too. https://youtu.be/TotZkcuwVGA?si=CrPDXNnMqmMUZBQO

If we're purely using that Rivera clip as a baseline, not sure that's much of anything. It really comes down to whether you're more motivating your players or constantly abusing them verbally (or even physically). That's an important distinction to make and I would have to assume the Seattle Storm allegations falls into the latter category.

It's almost like Bryce is trying in invoke the infamous growing the beard trope from Star Trek The Next Generation. if BY Season 3 ends up like TNG Season 3, we're in for an absolute treat.

You look at the NFL all-time rushing leaders, there's some players from this millennium but a lot were players from before we even had a franchise. Given how it's swung back towards being less of a passing league, not a surprise if Chuba can get up to third all-time in rushing yards at some point. Obviously, the biggest factor is if he can stay healthy enough.

As long as people continually hype up the QB position, they will continue to get all the money.

Bryce Young revenge tour's next stop.

Overall more successful than his brother, the gloved wonder. That said, you get the impression his upward trajectory stalled when he broke his leg. He still put up numbers afterwards - it's crazy he owns all Raiders passing stats - but was never really in the conversation on great QBs of his time.

Not enough talent to overcome the drama, I suppose.
