Brady is the GM, so that isn't going to happen.

He was on the staff at the Rams when Baker was there. I will say, nothing I am gonna be concerned about as a Panthers fan. It would be very funny to see us dominate Tampa like we did Atlanta while he was there.

You know what's funny and depressing is if he just replicates what he did in 2025 next season, he will be in the top 10 WR in franchise history based on receiving yards.

That was intended to be plural. Games(3 games he played in 2004). Yeah, I think objectively CJ is still the better QB but I also no longer have a rosy view of his career. I don't know that he is going to ascend any further than his rookie year and he may descend quite far if his confidence is shattered. I am not in the CJ vs. Bryce camp like most of you all are. I don't want either of them. Especially in the context of potentially getting a mega deal. I could be wrong about both or either in the end but my bet now is that entire 2023 first round QB class just doesn't have any upper tier QB's.

I think DJ will always catch some heat because he will never be an elite WR, despite having elite attributes. I remember that when he was here. We all saw Steve Smith play for years, so we know what a truly elite WR looks like. DJ was never that. Now, is he a very, very good WR? Yes. Is he one of the best 15-20 WR's in the NFL year in and year out? I would say yes, as well. But he will always get some doubters because he is the tier below the truly elite WR's. I do agree, though. Would love to still have it. Would love to have reversed that trade immediately. Especially with the benefit of hindsight the way we have now. It's way more painful from that view.

You mean the 4 INT game in 2004? That's cool but he threw 8 TD's in the game prior. Also, I definitely never saw him looking like Stroud did. Anyone who watched those two games knows how incredibly lucky Stroud was to have only 8 TO's. I never saw Peyton Manning in a single game just panic and throw up prayers to no one. Not a couple of times but repeatedly. That was basically a worse version of Sam Darnold seeing ghosts.

That made me laugh. Nice.

Yet for your proof of concept for how Bryce could never play in the old NFL you showed a clip of 6-2, 195 Ike Taylor(a DB) hitting 6-0, 190 Pat White? So it's not physics you don't understand, it's actual size(and possibly football positions?

You do have a minimal understanding of physics, correct?

Tez Johnson is 154 lbs, plays WR and he isn't getting hurt. The size thing is MASSIVELY overplayed as an issue. It's all the other horseshit that is the issue.

Yeah, I suppose so. I mean....he wasn't even a good coach at Boston College.

Allar is actually a great gamble on Day 3.

You like Halfley?? He is basically dimestore Greg Schiano. That's one of the worst hires I have seen in a long time.

Honestly, given what I read in the ESPN article, it's hard to think any of them are worse than Las Vegas currently.

I am pointing out that the parade of excuses sounds about like a typical Bryce stan. The point isn't poor play. We all see QB's do that. We never saw a Peyton game where he had absolutely zero idea what to do, like he did against Pittsburgh and New England. Mark my words, this is something to watch next season.

He injured his hand against Pittsburgh? Because he tried hard to lose them that game too. It wasn't an aberration. He was insanely bad the entire postseason.

I forgot about that little tidbit. He is very clearly not that. Lamar has never choked anywhere near as bad as CJ did over a two game span.

Keon Coleman is absolutely trash. He is like 10% better than XL, at best.

He was atrocious against Pittsburgh too. It's more than "a bad game." Also, it isn't just a bad game because he looked completely lost and completely overwhelmed. Closest I have seen to that are the classic Darnold meltdowns where you can see on his face in the game he isn't gonna recover. And he looked that way for two straight playoffs games with a potential cakewalk to a Super Bowl appearance. That's insane to melt down that hard on the biggest stage. He has been on a fairly steady downward trend across his three seasons, so I am not sure what the deal is with him. That was such a massive meltdown and the way he has handled the press conferences since would make me very, very, VERY worried if I was a Texans fan.

It's too early to make that statement with a lot of certainty. Still have a full offseason cycle. That said, ain't no way in hell I would make a bet on 10 wins, that is for sure.

No, I mean probably 2027/2028. I am gonna guess that once Dave is on the hot seat, Dan is gonna be not too far behind. I think if we drop back to being a 4-7 win team again in 2026 that Dave's seat is REALLY gonna get hot.

I do disagree. Mays is a genuine weakness as a starter. We forget what elite center play looks like because it has been so bad since Ryan Kalil left. The Ravens are pretty cap tight at the moment so unless they get that deal with Lamar prior to the start of free agency, it is POSSIBLE he gets away from them. I agree that it is unlikely. I would just personally not have any issue at all inking him to a $18 mil AAV deal for the next 5 years. That's a position that means a lot on an offense.

The draft seems to have a good group of RT/LT guys. Some that can play OG too(or project there). If you can plug a decent rookie in, I think we can survive. Remember the bar is pretty low. We just need someone better than Nijman.

That kid is fuging done. I am telling ya'll, everything about him exudes shattered confidence.

Don't be surprised to see more desperation roster moves in the near future. I don't think Morgan would go down quietly with the ship and thinking of the future of a team he wouldn't be a part of. A lot of GM's before they get canned start making panic moves.
