Agreed. It's tough for me to honestly evaluate Canales as an offensive coach given our QB room. Now with that said, his reluctance to lean into Rico isn't promising.

This. fug the contract. fug the draft pick investment. It's a sunk cost. fug protecting guys from competition. Try to upgrade every position group on the roster when and where you have the opportunity. Just accumulate as much talent as you can and then play the best football players, period. It's long been my suspicion that Evero is very poor at identifying talent for his scheme. He always seems to be trying to force square pegs into round holes.

It's good that there's options. If people want nothing but warm and fuzzy rah rah stuff, they're better off at reddit or over on the discord channel that the some folks left for awhile back. We're never going to attempt to moderate and shape the viewpoints on this forum. I don't really understand the point of it if you try to do that. But to each their own. I'm just glad they have somewhere to go versus constantly coming to the Huddle to complain about how awful the Huddle is. LOL That's one thing we will moderate. If your only purpose of being here is to constantly complain about how awful the Huddle is and how miserable it makes you then ultimately we'll step in to save your from yourself and your self torture to invite you to find some other place to hang out online.

It's a sad reality that the Panthers would've honestly been better off over the past several years to make major decisions via Huddle poll than going with the decisions they actually made. People say "oh, you think you know more than the professionals?" No, I don't. I know that. That's why it's so baffling watching them making obvious huge blunders in real time.

It's impossible to predict what might be going through Tepper's head. He's shown a very quick trigger finger at times and maddening levels of patience at other times. So who knows?

A lot for them and little for us.

That and I just don't think it would work. Do you really think Tepper would keep this place going if it was under his control? I mean, pretty much the only thing that everyone here fully agrees on is that Tepper sucks. LOL

If you're a high 1st rounder your highly likely going to a poo situation. It is what it is. It's always going to be that way.

Those teams are gonna be ass again next year too.

I wonder if those people realize that Bryce is 10-25 as a starter? He's 4-3 this year but in two of those we had Rico running for 200 yards, the other one he threw for 121 yards while Penix had an absolute meltdown and then the fourth he had a legit good game against the Cowboys who currently have the second worst defense in the NFL.

I hate to break it to prospects but if you're looking at being a high 1st round pick you're going to a poo team.

3rd or 4th is too high but 6th? Wouldn't mind it and that's about where I expect him to go.

That's what's always going to be reported. That's always the message. Just like every player who has ever been drafted was the BPA on that team's board. It's not like they're ever going to admit that there was any disagreement in the draft room or that they panicked and reached based on need.

Except an NFL team has an owner and the owner is essentially the king. Anything the king wants the king will get. Ultimately he's the one writing the checks and he has final say over anything he wants final say on.

Yeah, the forum is honestly a dying platform in general. Most have been gobbled up (and basically killed) by Vertical Scope. The rest have been hurt bad by the rise of social media and reddit becoming the "catch all" with subreddits for everything under the sun. It is what it is. I still like the Huddle and I think it has enough users to keep conversation going and fresh but not so many that it feels like chaos.

I think he either wasn't serious or Zod just didn't think he was serious. Which yeah, it would be hard to take anyone seriously if they were talking about spending mid-six figures on this site.

I'm not saying we're right about everything or even most things but people just blindly homering an organization with seven (soon to be eight) consecutive losing seasons sure as hell ain't gonna be right about much.

Anyone willing to spend mid-six figures on this site is a certified moron.

Damn, that sucks.

What a turnover fest. Nice hands Mr. Swift. LOL

Having gone through Helene in western NC, I can't even begin to imagine what they're about to go through. They're talking about western NC Helene type rainfall amounts and flooding and then add in class 5 hurricane winds on top of that. Seems like that island is gonna get razed to the ground because during Helene we really didn't have that bad of wind until near the end of the storm and even then it wasn't nothing crazy. Basically just a run of the mill windy day type of wind and still yet trees were going down all over the place. Sounded like a warzone outside from all the trees falling because the ground was so saturated. They're about to go through pure hell and my heart goes out to them. All the people talking about how the whole island should've been evacuated are dumbasses who can't even begin to grasp the logistics of evacuating and island of 3 million people.

Not sure if we'd be slam dunk playoff bound but we'd contend for a spot. We still have serious defensive issues when we play real offenses.

If the Eagles and Chiefs play it's gonna be interesting to see how the refs handle that because they sure do carry both of them more often than not. Yesterday's Eagles game was a real doozy.

Pretty much confirms what I already largely thought about reddit. Lol

No clue
