Brandon Miller is having himself a night. 25 minutes 25 points. Unfortunately the only reason we're winning is because the Bulls are shooting a dismal 20% from three. With better coaching and some roster changes this could be a competitive team.

I mean hiring Chip Kelly to do anything in the NFL in the year 2025 is just inviting catastrophe. I did not know Pete Carroll had both of his sons on staff though. That is some serious nepotism.

Actually $37.5m And he's been seen flipping off his own fans following their loss to the Browns. The guy is legitimately a POS.

The interview in question for anyone that might be interested. I still can't believe he thought that was a good time to do an interview like that. Wild lack of situational awareness from a #1 pick with so many questionable performances across 40 starts.

I'm preparing for the inevitability he is the starter next year. But no viable competition 4 years in a row would be next level disrespectful to the fanbase.

Pretty much.

I am not sympathizing with Jerry Richard I assure you. I do not look back on his time here with any illusions about the man he was.

I was sounding the alarm about Dalton earlier in the year when we signed him to an extension. He was horrendous against the Bears and the Commanders and was clearly done. Damn shame folks who were paid to see that couldn't or wouldn't for reasons. Anywho I agree the upcoming options for QB are not "ideal" but that's the hand we're dealt so we need to evaluate the options and choose the best ones that have the best upside. As far as the draft people have been saying "next year's QB class" for what seems like a long time now. You could be right you could be wrong. We just don't know. That should not however preclude us from shooting our shot. Identify the guy with the necessary measurables and arm talent that checks the most boxes select him and see what happens. That's all we can do.

The league did Jerry Richardson dirty. But Jerry Richardson played himself. He went out of his way at every opportunity to be as subservient to the shield as humanly possible even when the league went out of it's way to make it abundantly crystal clear that they did not want to see Cam Newton be the face of the league to the point they had the refs do their bidding. If Jerry had any backbone he would have taken the gloves off with the league after SB50. But he just took it on the chin.

We don't need "another Joe Burrow" just to field a competent passing attack. And BTW while you're busy slurping the Cowboys just remember that team and Dak lost to Bryce Young and the Panthers.

The QB room isn't a top priority? Well that's interesting. Without looking can anyone name the receivers Joe Burrow threw two touchdown passes to against the Ravens?

This franchise hasn't finished with a winning record since 2017. In the lead up to the most recent primetime embarrassment by this franchise the Panthers social media team spent most of their time hyping up the uniform combination for the game. Uniforms........... Then the team proceeded to display one of the most useless passing offenses imaginable against a defense that recently got carved up by Jacoby Brisset. Negativity from fans is the absolute least of our worries. People who only want to focus on that instead of the product on the field just need to kiss Tepper's bare ass and get it over with because you basically work for him. Free of charge.

Been expecting this all along. Despite the water carrying for Dan Morgan from people here the same as they did for Scott Fitterer the reality is he has been and is in lockstep with David Tepper. He is basically a lackey. Double triple and quadruple down. Anything but admit the mistake they made. I'll just stand back watch the inevitable fireworks and chuckle.

Still no word from @KaseKlosed? Happy Thanksgiving!

This same Knicks team just fired their most successful head coach in years and still might as well be in another league compared to us. Charles Lee needs to go.

The team in general is ass tonight even the rookies. This is regression across the board. I think we've got the wrong head coach. Charles Lee is done here.

I don't even want him as a backup. He is not playing good football at all and his answer to that has been flipping off his own fans while averaging $37.5 million per season.

If Dave Canales suggests going after Geno Smith he should be fired on the spot.

Perfectly reasonable position. Especially in the current sports media landscape where it has become intertwined with social media and that wasteland of constant grifting.

The trade is over and done with and he's gone and he isn't coming back. Turn the page. We've got bigger fish to fry.

I understand why you mention the way he talks but I see it as largely irrelevant and not a needle mover one way or another. How he prepares the team for gamedays and how he coaches and the decisions he makes on gamedays are what I am concerned about. But replacing him is an issue that opens a can of worms some of us may not want to have to look at. Beginning with first and foremost if we fire Dave Canales then there is no rational logical reasoning for keeping Scott Fitterer's former right hand man Dan Morgan around. The only one who should be spared would be Tillis. But that conversation has another layer to it. At the end of the day the justified speculative assumption is that these people are glorified yes men to David Tepper. So anyone else hired will be in the same vein and possibly an even more inferior version because realistically who will want the job as either GM or head coach? So logic dictates that the most reasonable path from here unless we play horrifically the rest of the season is to completely overhaul the QB room and give Canales and Morgan one more year. Then if it is ultimately more of the same you clean house. Now some of us may not want to hear that right now and I completely understand. But that is the reality of the situation.

He is not worse than Rhule. Please stop.

I like Steve Wilks the man. I was not completely against him as the head coach but at the time I saw it as a lateral move at best given that he was and is realistically another version of Ron Rivera. And there was not another Cam Newton walking through the door. I leaned toward us finally hiring an offensive minded head coach again and directing more resources to that side of the ball. We know Reich didn't work and honestly Tepper played a significant role in that. Canales has been better but he just does not command a locker room. All the talk for the cameras is just that. It's a fugazi. He to me does not appear to be the head coach to create a strong culture for the next decade. He's too timid and indecisive. There is a chance he could still work out if we actually overhaul the QB room but I think our best chance would be to go the route the Seahawks did. They hired a DC from the Ravens and let him create his own staff. In less than 2 full years he's put his stamp on that team. Can we say Dave Canales has put his stamp on this team? What's our identity? Exactly. Bueller???? That's the problem.

There are two truths currently. We need a new QB room beginning with QB1 and we need to take a long hard look at the available head coaching candidates after the season concludes. Both will happen if we are a serious franchise.

Well. I think I'm done with the offensive minded head coach experiment. Let's get a hard nosed defensive minded head coach in here and let him hire his own offensive coordinator.
