There are games on UNC's schedule that you've earmarked as Ws that they will lose. Not sure which ones, but it will happen. Programs can't be turned around that quickly, especially with an old coach who's going to have to make the transition from NFL to college. He might end up being a good coach at the college level, but expecting a 180 turnaround and ACC championship is wildly unrealistic, even for you.

I've seen enough, stop the count

Which is probably why they get so many Panthers games lmao

Chris Myers and Mark Schlereth suck ass

We're in a great position to see just how big of a misstep it would be, having made so many ourselves

The Panthers could never win a game ever again and I'd still take the time to laugh at the Falcons mistakes.

The Falcons FO is getting cleared out if Penix doesn't hit. What a monumental failure it would be to give an old QB coming off an achilles injury a 4 year deal and then spend a top 10 pick on a failed QB prospect, especially when they desperately need defensive talent.

whoosh

Who?

Just because we've only just now been mathematically eliminated from the playoffs, doesn't mean that we weren't de facto eliminated weeks ago. I don't think anything changes.

If they're still finalizing the deal then of course nothing is official. Come on man. Think.

They've just run through a series of somewhat tough to very tough defenses, and now their schedule eases up dramatically. They've got Vegas, NYG, Commanders, and us to finish the season. They're probably assuming Kirk can do enough to win against weaker defenses, and they don't want to drop a winnable game because of a rookie's first start.

Pride, ego, and sunk cost.

Where I stand is that I had completely written him off and was done with him, but he's turned it around enough to make me alright with naming him the starter next year. He's not currently good enough to call him a franchise QB, but the hope is that he keeps growing. Maybe this is my own bias, but I feel like most fans fall somewhere around this area. Most of the hot takes on here are being made by a few on here who are attempting to clown the majority who were done with Bryce after his consistently poor performances. Also no one should be making definitive statements about XL. Chuba Hubbard and Derek Brown are just recent examples of players declared busts in year one that have become franchise corner pieces. With that said, I'm in favor of going WR round one if a top tier prospect falls to us.

Hurts was absolute ass yesterday. Definitely outplayed by Bryce.

This bet would've made a lot more sense early in the season. Panthers have all of a sudden become a tough out, which is enough to make betting against them a nervy affair.

I thought your answer held unreasonable expectations, so I questioned it. I guess all those QBs stunk against the Eagles since they didn't meet your threshold. I can say that my threshold for a successful franchise QB is 5,000 yards passing and get on my high horse and scoff at anyone saying it's unrealistic because they just have too low standards but that's not very productive is it?

Agreed.

Will watch later. Interested to hear him give Thielen his flowers lol.

Didn't Tepper try to force Ron to move to a 3-4? I may be misremembering, but if that's the case I doubt we're moving away from a 3-4 anytime soon.

If Bryce did this against the Eagles would Frank eat crow? Inquiring minds want to know.

Alright, here's an incomplete list of QBs that have not hit 300 passing yards against the Eagles this year: Jordan Love Kirk Cousins Joe Burrow Jaden Daniels Matthew Stafford Lamar Jackson You're saying that the minimum you will accept is better than all of those QBs. Are these really your standards?

Lamar threw for 237 and 2 TDs against the Eagles yesterday btw.
