Louisville might be the worst 5-0 team ever.

Regular season, preseason, still waiting on something to get excited about bit there's no shortage of puff pieces trying to convince us he's a football savant. Maybe just ease up on the hype pieces and let the kid play and try to show something. Nobody's buying the hype anymore. It's go time.

We've HEARD this same stuff ever since we drafted him. I want to SEE it.

Achilles injuries are usually a career derailer. It is what it is.

Definitely not stressing about it. Just saying that yeah, it would suck and it would demolish my logic for backing the move.

I was onboard with the trade because I mistakenly thought we weren't going to be in a position to get a top 5 pick (or higher). After seeing how we played under Wilks I honestly thought we wouldn't be picking top 10 so if there's an opportunity to shoot your shot then shoot. But if we them turn around and actually earn a pick from true sucking that could land us a franchise QB prospect without a huge trade up? Ouch.

Handing the Bears a top 5 pick would really sting.

I think they legit wanted to go all in on Love this year and see how it goes. I mean, I don't think he's played anywhere nearly bad enough to bench him. We'll see how it plays out for them.

Honestly, I'm not impressed. I do see the physical skills but I'm not seeing anything that makes me think he's likely to ever be a plus starter.

I think the Lions were just a lot better tonight. If they hadn't taken their foot off the gas this might have ended up looking like the Dolphins/Broncos. Them going conservative in the second half was the only thing that allowed the Packers to briefly make this competitive.

Yep. Pedestrian stats on a dominant D. Somehow the NFL keeps allowing the obvious UGA stud to fall into the Eagles' lap. It's happened two years in a row. Jordan Davis last year and Jaylen Carter this year.

Good call. Packers down on the goal line to end the 3rd with an opportunity to potentially make this a one score game. Once you take your foot off the gas sometimes it's hard to get it revved back up again. I really don't understand why teams get away from what built them a huge lead. Force the team that's getting whooped to make the adjustments first.

Travis Walker > Aiden Hutchinson last year looks like a big mistake. Hutchinson has notched another sack and a half plus three additional QB hits tonight.

Seeing them getting after this GB offense, we might need to go ahead and identify a play on Sunday where Bryce tweaked that ankle again. Because good grief, I don't care who you have put there wearing green and gold tonight, it is NOT gonna end well.

Well, this sure went off the rails.

284 yards to 15. That sums up everything about this game this far.

Yeah, they are rarely good games. Seems like most are suckfests on both sides. But the Lions look like they're playing their SB vs. the Packers in preseason mode.

This is just one of those games where one team shows up and the other team didn't. The Lions are just dominating every facet of this game.

I mean, they're taking a 2-1 team to the woodshed. I agree that the Eagles and Niners look to be the best NFC teams but it's a long season. Being the best teams in September doesn't mean much.

Just got home and turned the game on... to find out that it's already over.

A lot of time our drafting feels like we predetermine our picks. Like we're taking a WR in the 2nd, an edge rusher in the 3rd, etc. We don't seem to do a good job of taking advantage of the strength of draft classes or letting the draft come to us. I get it, you may have it in your head you'd like to draft a certain position in the mid-rounds then there's a run on that position in the late 2nd/early 3rd. The rational thing to do is simply target another position. The Panthers thing to do is panic trade up and reach at the position. That's how you end up trading up to draft DJ Johnson.

Don't get too proud of that. It's because the Panthers pretty much just don't exist to the casual NFL fan.

The last piece of Panthers gear I bought was a Cam jersey that I bought about midway through his rookie year.
