Good growth from Jatavion sanders. all hands away from the body after his disasterous mistakes last week. Like I said, still to early to give up, rooks gonna rook, just hope they grow.

its why I said we NEEDED a TD on that drive after the TO

We need to turn this into 7

what kinda of bad luck is that...we actually get a stop and ball magically bounces to another reciever.

Honestly, its why Im starting to think we need to extend Diontae Johnson. We cant just keep letting the players that we have that have proven talent just walk away, we dont need rentals anymore, we need pieces, and he's showing that he has what it takes to be an actual #1 reciever, as we've learned, those dont grow on trees.

Mingo has to hit the bench, I was done with him when he just gave up on the interception. Zero fight, zero awareness, just get him off the field.

Eh, I think many of them do care, they're just not good, like even a little. With all the injuries, we're playing guys that legit would be PS players for other teams and I dont blame them for that, its just that we dont have healthy players.

Will say, tough Day for Jataveon Sanders, but I still see some potential there. Hands and body catching isnt good, but he (Unlike TE's weve had for a while) actually got open a few times. Regardless, we arent doing anything with this defense, and we knew that.

I called it a quarter ago, we were gonna get bryce young

brace yourself...we will be seeing bryce soon. our misery today has only just begun.

jesus, that was the weakest effort I've ever seen from a WR by mingo.

before the season I would have said nah, but he legit looks like a dude you build an offense around, like that good. I think he bumps heads in crowded WR rooms, but he's good when he's the one leading the room. He is a diva, but he also is fuging good, so let him be everyones darling and we can all be happy.

Same, I think he had all the kind of potential that Burns had, speed and burst, but gets washed in run defense. Lets see what he can actually do in Evero's system since he got injured last year and didnt really get a chance to make a name.

Yea, I actually thought he played pretty decent. It was the kind of play you want to see from a backup oline.

He's part of the Panthers hall of "he was alright". Good starter, not a huge liability (although he shoulder tackled way too much), as long as he was here he was never the guy you had to gameplan for, but also never a guy you would worry wouldnt pull his own weight. His leadership will be missed, but his skills on the field are replaceable.

Im tired of saying this....we. are. rebuilding. NO! just roll with who we have, trading assets to get players is stuff playoff teams do, we are however, NOT a playoff team.

I know DJ Wonnum is still on IR with the quadricep injury, and K'Lavon Chaisson got cut for being trash before the season. I am interested to see if Jaden Crumedy can make any impact when he returns, would be nice to have another hit from the draft even if he's just developmental depth, cuzz we need the depth right now. The Linebackers are where I'm afraid, but its gonna be Trev Wallace's chance to make a name.

Biggest flaw I always thought about Dalton was his arm strength, he slings in the short to intermediate, but I thought he had trouble pushing down the field when in Cinci. That said, he has decent arm strength and has showed some dimes here, but a good example of it still happening was on the INT that was overturned due to hold by the Cinci defender, XL had to slow down, but he had completely BLOWN by that defender and someone with great arm strength can get that far down the field. Generally speaking, no, Dalton isnt perfect and everyone needs to pump the breaks on that idea, but, he's good for what WE need which is quick decisive qb play and leadership.

Last year it was "defense is ok, fix the offense and we'll be". Truth is, its draft, we have to draft better and develop players. I really like this years draft class, but we gotta keep drafting well, without good drafts we'll continue saying we just need to fix "insert new problem we neglect to fix a different problem"

how quickly people forget...

So yea, we lost, but as many have said theres ways to lose that still provide hope and optimism. THIS game was one of those. At the end of the day, even though we're rocking a 36 year old QB, this is a very young team that has to learn how to win. Think about the 2 XL drops, Mingo drop, the dropped fake punt. Those are plays that veteran winning teams make, but we ARENT there...yet. XL showed some explosion on the outside that is super exciting, chuba and dare I say Miles Sanders actually looked good. On defense we are sorely missing Brown, and they were undeniably rough today, BUT, I remember thinking if there was a time they needed to show some "keep pounding" it was right after Shaq and Jewel went out, and the VERY next play the rush got to burrow and we got the turnover. It was legitimately the first time in years I yelled "Keep pounding", that was an attitude play. Also for all the bad on defense, Horn still looks like he does have that dawg in him. End of the day as we all know, winning in the NFL mostly comes down to a handful of plays, and it really depends on if you convert those opportunities, and right now with our youth we arent, BUT that will change with experience. Keep Pounding.

Legette gonna learn and get better, but god damn, gotta come back and atleast fight for that 3rd down ball.

Refs are determined to give this one to the bengals.

Just start hitting the refs. If we're gonna get flagged for bullshit, might as well make it count. Dumbasses can't even get their ass out of the way.

I've seen what I wanted...legette is gonna be somethin special.
