I thought Joe Brady was actually pretty decent as OC here. It's not his fault that Rhule brought in literally the worse QB possible to run his scheme in Sam Darnold.

Gotta think on the bright side this will be good experience for Bryce to learn what it's like to play in a tough environment on the road expect the game will be in charlotte.

I hope this means Zavala gets another shot at LG. It couldn't be any worse than what Calvin Throckmorton was doing. Also, it'll at least give the broadcasters something positive to talk about with us how Icky and Zavala played next to each other at NC state and how much of a feel-good story that is as they both allow Micah Parsons to sack Bryce.

The only bright side of us not drafting Howell was that he would've been good enough to save Rhule's job and we'd still be stuck with him hearing about how where so close and jay z's 7-year plan.

We're stuck between a rock and a hard place. Our WR's can't create down field separation so the solution is to call more screens to allow the defense to cheat up even more and pin their ears back and attack us? Not to mention the only WR who can consistently create after the catch is Viska and he's currently hurt.

I love him as a prospect but I really think he does. I have him as QB #3 but with his question marks I have him going as QB 5 or 6 depending on if a team really likes Riley Leonard from Duke.

Fox despite all his flaws had the team playing with an identity and a philosophy. I'd say the 2010 team wins an ugly 10-6 or 9-7 game. Fox would play time of possession and just run the ball 40-50 times and give our already limited offense few times to have the ball.

He's definitely going to be there at the top of the 2nd. The age, knee stuff, supporting cast, and being a left-handed QB is going to have him slip out of the 1st in my opinion unless some team jumps to 30-32 to get the 5th year option. Hopefully he slips out of the 1st, and we can upcharge a team for a trade up since Qb picks are a premium.

I'm all in on Bryce as our guy but Michael Penix is gonna slip in the draft and be a steal for some team.

This is 90% of all our downfield passing playbook and you expect Bryce to be successful with this? We don't have the speed to go deep so instead of trying to find creative ways to get guys open downfield we just completely removed it from the playbook. It's a lot easier to play defense when you know you only gotta defend 15 yards down the field.

Reich has to go 100% as soon as today. He had to have watched the film we put out late last year showing that we found a successful formula in winning by pounding the rock with power running plays and playing the time of possession game and instead of choosing to build on that formula that we found successful he chose instead to do the complete opposite and trash that and make us a zone running short passing WCO team. The players look defeated because they know that're not being put in places to succeeded. There's no emotion from the offense because they know they're beat before the game is even kicked off. I don't blame them it has to suck being dominated by the 2 worst defense in football in back-to-back weeks and seeing your "offensive" head coach do nothing different and keep running the same concepts that haven't worked all season.

Yeah Frank is fired by the end of this weekend.

Watch Corbett telegraphing the snap every play. He does the same protection call routine and motion and it allows the Dline do jump the snap every play.

Time to fire frank. Give Evero a chance to see if he's worth the job

We're getting every single lucky break possible and we're still getting dominated.

Fire Frank Reich.

Donte has been playing well tonight

Listen I understand we're a bad team, but I don't tune into a panther game to hear about the Eagles for 30 minutes. It's like I'm watching a Kelce Podcast with a panther game in the background.

WHAT A THROW BRYCE

You gotta get one of the big fish in either Higgins or Pittman. Then snag another solid contributor like a KJ Osborn or a Tyler Boyd. Combine a pair of them with AT, Mingo, and Viska and you'd have a WR core that can actually be effective. That would open up our options with our high 2nd round pick to either take a talent that has fallen in the draft or being able to trade back so we can recoup some assets we lost during the Bryce trade and allow us to build some depth to this team.

Maybe Wilks really did catch lightening in a bottle and what we're dealing with now is the true aftermath and mess that Matt Rhule left us with.

I'd say 4-4. The CMC trade was already pretty much done before Wilks had a chance to get things right and plus, I feel Wilks would've summed his inner Ron Rivera and ran him into the ground, so I'd still trade CMC. I don't think Wilks would've wanted to trade up all the way to number #1 so the Texans would've swapped with Bears and Bryce goes there. CJ would go to the colts, and we would've either done a small trade up for Richardson or stayed put at 9 and took Levis. Both of which would be sitting their entire rookie year unless Darnold got hurt as Darnold showed that he could effectively be a game manager in Wilks 2000s ground and pound offense.

The hornets have actually assembled a really talented team for being a small market. They just can't seem to get the coaching hire right. I still despise Kenny Atkinson and hope he gets blacked balled from coaching anywhere except Golden State.

It only took 1 week for the DC of the 32nd ranked defense in the NFL to figure out and get the playbook for our shiny new play caller.
