My brother in Christ, these were the first snaps Shenault has taken all year. We need to pump the breaks about being impressed by his two catch performance lest we anoint him the next GOAT a la David Gettis. He did great with his oppportunities this past game. Way, way, way too early to say I'm impressed with the guy yet. McCall though, I'll give you that one. Rookie has looked solid so far.

For those of you at the game, if things start going south, please start some "fire rhule" or "sell the team" chants. No mercy.

We are the 2020 Jets. Tepper is riding Rhule out like they did Gase to tank for a top pick. It's the only explanation that makes sense.

I'll be at quail hollow watching the golf thing or another with my Father in law. I don't like Golf and I don't like my Father in law. I'd still rather be doing that then watching the panthers on Sunday

Nope. We're not doing this poo again.

There's also the issue of him still being under contract with NO and they will want to be compensated if he does come back. We would most likely have to trade our 1st and the way things are going that might end up as a top 5 pick.

That uhhh.... That' ain't good.

Tabor HC McAdoo to remain OC Wilkes to DC We 2021 Raiders it and make the playoffs but still clean house for 2023. Profit.

Someone check the snap counts before and after he caught that pass and tried to reach the ball over the goal line back in week 1. I guarantee they immediately went down.

To illustrate how far this franchise has fallen in the eyes of some of the team's biggest supporters. To commiserate with others who feel the same way as I do. To vent. To bitch. To complain. To scream into the void and realize nothing will be done no matter how much I complain. I'm seeking catharsis. Why even ask why I posed it? This is a Panthers message board and the Panthers suck. Did you honestly expect to read anything positive on here?

See Bobby Petrino and Nick Saban for the counter argument. College FB don't care.

I honestly don't know and don't care enough to find out.

For the past two months, I have been sitting on this voucher to either the Cards game or the Lions game, and I have absolutely no desire to claim it. 5 years ago, if you would have told me I could have a free game ticket I would have been over the moon excited to go. Now you literally couldn't give me one for free because I have no desire to waste my time watching this team. We just bought a house and spent the entire weekend moving. In years past, the FIRST thing I would have done was make sure the TV was set up so I could watch the Game on Sunday. The TV is still in the box and I didn't bother checking my phone for game scores until 4, and that was only to check my fantasy teams. I saw we lost. I am not surprised, and frankly I don't really care. I have no idea how anyone looked but I'm sure it was subpar because that is our new normal. Apathy has taken over. Any good will and excitement built up over the offseason is now completely gone. Remember when Tepper said that he wouldn't accept mediocrity? I guess he meant he'd except abject failure instead.

Jesus christ, that Raiders dude had fuging BRICKS for hands.

Oh you know I can't

The real question then becomes, will reps help this, or is this just who Baker is?

I fixed it. For anyone who runs into this issue when they copy and paste, make sure you select "paste as plain text instead" at the bottom:

I was penciling him in as a bust the moment Hurney selected him in the second round. Same with Chinn. Something a lot of people don't seem to want to talk about is how irrelevant Chinn actually is out there these days. No splash plays, just chasing guys down after they run past either him or everyone else. Burns Can't finish plays. Dude would be an all-pro if he could actually tackle. The entire defense is filled with disappointment.

I was about to get all sanctimonious but you're right, I did not realize he was on the sideline last year. It was so bad I stopped caring halfway through the season, but you're right. He's still a better coach than Matt Rhule though. Even if he has a butthole mouth and he's an asshat.

It appears we avoided the run

You're not wrong, The optimism just seems completely unwarranted based on the fact each of the QBs listed above went to the postseason last year and have had some history of success with their coaching staff. Ours goes through QBs like teenage boys go through tissues. There is reason to believe that their coaching staff will regroup and improve going into next week. What reason do we have to expect any improvement? We currently have the longest losing streak in the NFL and we just let the Browns win their first opener in 18 years with a backup QB. This isn't just an indictment of the QB and how that whole thing was managed, it's an indictment on how the whole team has been managed over the past 3 seasons. We go on the road to a team in NY who embarrassed us last year with no offensive weapons at their disposal, and they ended up canning their crappy coach who beat our crappy coach then hired a guy with a much better resume than our crappy coach. They also have a healthy Saquon Barkley, and our run defense was poo this past week, so I'm anticipating more of the same. Giants win 31-17

Jesus that's so incredibly harsh and completely fair. I love it. This Luke DeCock guy gets it.

Looked up some dudes: Pep Hamilton - If Davis Mills goes HAM, we need to kick the tires on him. Already has a solid resume beneath him Ken Dorsey - We'll see how good the Bills do with him. Would be nice to bring an Offensive minded coach Shane Steichen - Eagles current OC, young, and throwing together a solid resume so far. Let's see how well their offense performs this season:

I am pumping the breaks on Leftwich personally, at least I can see his body of work as a playcaller without Arians on the sideline with him every week. If there is minimal dropoff with the injuries they have sustained on the line and WR room, I am willing to give him a shot. No to Eric B. Brian Flores I am OK with. I would kick the tires on Kellen Moore. I don't necessarily want him but I'm interested to see what he does with Dak out for an extended period of time. Are there any young, up and coming coordinators that are high energy and have proven themselves yet? I really wanted either Hacket or Daboll last offseason but we kept Rhule. Giants have a completely different energy compared to last season and we'll see how the broncos look tonight, but I honestly can't think of any hot commodities in the coordinator rankings right now.
