Hopkins went for a 5th last year and we asked for a 3rd. Hilarious.

This is not a playoff team barring an angels in the outfield level miracle. It is and always was a developmental season. And at some point your QB has to elevate those around him as he was drafted to do regardless.

That's a young draft pick for a guy who guaranteed will not be playing for the team next season. You guys are too attached. And the players you're attached to aren't even that good.

Honestly getting a 4th would be borderline robbery on our part.

10/10 film.

Hopefully the Niners continue to flounder. Seeing such is truly the gift that keeps on giving.

There's for sure some hope with the young players on the roster. But we've had young promising talent before and squandered it. Let's see how the coaching staff positions them for success going forward. That's all that will matter.

How does anyone still think we're getting Parsons? Even if you trade a haul. Why would he want to play here?

I mean. Thielen being here or not being here is not going to push us in or out of the playoffs. That will come down to Bryce not regressing but taking huge strides and the young roster developing and Canales and his staff not getting outcoached. 35 year old Adam Thielen is not a needle mover.

Sink or swim for our QB.

I'm curious to see what we would get and which teams are interested. And yes his value here is at times ridiculously overstated.

It's a gamble no doubt but it had to be done regardless.

If you think we've actually been better than the Giants then more power to you.

In terms of enthusiasm at this exact juncture it's a 5 only because regular season football is back and we are 0-0 and there is the development of some key young players that I am very interested in seeing in regular season action. That brief high will probably be knocked down to 1 by October though.

Well just a few years ago they went to the playoffs and won a playoff game with Daniel Jones at QB. And while the Giants have been up and down at best since their last Super Bowl they have shown to be a more competent organization. While the Panthers haven't so much as sniffed the playoffs in nearly a decade. Logic would dictate that the Giants strategy has a high probability to be at least modestly successful. The Panthers? Eh.

If the best reasoning we can come up with revolves around doing well in practice that's not a good sign. But hang the banner I guess?

The Jags destroyed us 2 years ago without their starting QB. It's either going to go really well or really bad.

I really don't want to see another coaching reset but everything I've seen thus far this year concerns me that Canales is more image than substance as a head coach.

Right now I would say 5 wins would be extremely optimistic based on the football we've seen.

Let's drop the facade and just keep it 100 with each other. This years Panthers team is either going to flip a switch from the messy at best football they've displayed thus far. Or the regular season is going to get ugly fast.

We did that last year and got curbstomped to start the season 0-2.

At this point it looks like the Panthers under Canales aren't going to move much from the 30th passing offense. 87 passing yards lol

Isn't Canales calling plays?
