Logan Thomas is a decent TE. He might be back this week. They check down a lot to McKissic in the pass game a lot. He is pretty good in the pass game.

games like this are the worst. Yuck, pulling for Mac and the Patriots.

Washington isn't really built to score on us. Only way they can win this one is if Carolina turns it over. And then over. and then over. put the fluke Tampa game to the side. Every win has been with McLaurin playing a crucial role in their offense. With our pass rush coupled with the Gilly Lock? Well, that isn't very likely to happen.

I don't think Del Rio is a Cam hater looking to throw shade. I think he has been around the NFL and long time and knows only 8 full days with a new playbook and langauge would leave a QB in a very neutered position for 4 quarters.

it's on spotify. They brought up Samuel. Basically said he was a fine player and guy but the injury issue is why they overpaid. Wasn't that bad by Steve standards in reality. 89 - thinks Ron is a really good HC. Having a really good HC is just that though. Doesn't mean that is enough to win. Not sure he feels great about Ron's long term odds because of everything else wrong with Washington. Thinks Carolina should win this game. Doesn't like the Norv coaching offshoots. Not a fan of Scott Turner or Jason Garrett as playcallers. Thinks everyone is way too focused on Cam right now. Doesn't like how Cam was credited with the win essentially last week. Which wasn't Cam hate. There is some truth there.

Health and cost not factoring? You give me the choice of Robby or Samuel? I'd take Samuel every time. Robby might go deep better but I like just about everything else in the Samuel direction. And he would help us properly spell CMC. And we should of been giving him some of that work steadily to not overwork CMC before last season forced us into it. Health alone is why you basically have to steer clear of Samuel at this point. Unless he is just playing for a super cheap deal.

To make a playoff run, we need to win the next 3 games.

I think Del Rio is correct. And it isn't even two weeks for Cam. I think Cam starts and does the Cam scripted opening drive. Then I think we insert the Cam package into redzone and certain short yardage plays.

definately need to limit Gilmore. The best QB/WR play comes at the end. Obviously you play him on Diggs. Not sure about Tampa. I actually think Brown is the important cog to Brady doing what he does with that O. Despite Evans/Godwin being the big names on the outside. Bucs O just functions better with Brown in vs out.

This. Got to think the Wash crowd was buying them before the last couple days and they always snatch them up at a high rate.

Washington always represents in large numbers at BOA. And tickets were pretty cheap 2 weeks go online. so I would assume the normal amount for Washington show up, which will be a higher opposing fan average than the norm.

I think his tackling has gotten better. But yeah, he always flown up quick in run support. He has never been shy about throwing his body around to make tackles.

I'm all about keeping him. But not at the price levels people are talking about Jackson. If Jackson wants top CB money then another team should write that check. One really good season in a contract year doesn't warrant top CB money (and basically still has a half a season to go for this season to be logged as a great one). and while he has played great this year. He essentially has been the getting the #2 a lot vs a lot of weak QB play. So I am not comfortable paying him big lock up #1 WR money when that just isn't what he has been IMO.

I want the Saints to win. Philly already owns the tiebreaker over us and the Philly remaining schedule is super soft. Giants x2, Jets, Redskins x2. Saints remaining schedule is much tougher and we play them. So I we are in playoff contention, I think we would own the tiebreaker over the Saints.

I mean I know everyone hates Shula as OC but… Cam went 51-28-1 Playoffs 4 of 5 years MVP it’s not the worst place to look for some plays.

Yeah, I was one of the first people to support Cam coming to Carolina. Way before it was trendy. My view then is my view now. Nothing has changed. It was a conditional. If you have Cam Newton. Then you let Cam do what makes Cam special. You let a lion roar. Otherwise, he isn’t special and then what’s the point. You let Cam be Cam. That’s how he could save our season. No point in neutering him. And given how late he is coming in you absolutely have to run him. and his entire career, I’ve been more worried about him getting hurt in the pocket than running.

In terms of his football body, Cam’s last healthy season was really 2020. And they ran the heck out of him. Cam was run harder last season than any of his career. Yes, he was quarantined with a virus during a pandemic for one game. That’s not an example of his body not holding up to a football season.

Cool, Russ does throw a better ball. But you are still just one way streeting it. and Cam is significantly bigger threat on the ground than Russ. Because Cam is much more than a scrambler and play extender. Cam can win virtually every one on one matchup going downhill. Which is something know one else has been able to do at the position. A power running QB.

We just need 2020 NE Cam to make a wildcard run. Pre covid preferably.

What 4 game stretch did this D lay an egg? Sam channeling Jimmy Clausen and imploding a teams chances to win isn’t the same thing as a D laying an egg. The 85 Bears wouldn’t of been the 85 Bears with Jimmy Clausen and Sam screwing them for 4 quarters

If the media would have left The Golden Calf of Bristol alone I do think he could of been a backup QB in this league. Maybe a gadget red zone insertion here or there. The Skip Bayless type folks that just lied about The Golden Calf of Bristol and made him miserable to bring on your roster…killed what would have been a solid Clipboard Jesus career (minus the hair but plus the Jesus swag).

Sometimes it is tough to tell the difference between decent comedy and crazy. My guess is that is just crazy.

I mean that isn’t probably true. And I am a Cam stan. we got a garbage OL. We can’t have a super tiny playbook and effectively get CMC going. PJ just being able to communicate to the team and audible into the right CMC play mattered on Sunday. Cam couldn’t do that yet. He might know what he would like to do vs looks….but communicating the actual plays to everyone in real time is different. it all depends how fast they can get Cam up and running….in what isn’t even a week and half. I’m no fan of setting Cam up to look bad. I want the Cam revival to work. And still don’t trust Rhule.

Nah, something wasn’t very wrong at all. we got out to a very big lead and quick….against the #4 D in the NFL and were starting a backup QB.
