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

I think if it got to that point he'd sell it before letting it completely die. He said TheBigKat wasn't serious.

Both. Mendoza isn't just in 1st round conversation, he's in #1 overall conversation.

Basically he's said that he built this place and thinks back fondly on that and hopes that maybe he'll be reinvigorated if the Panthers ever find a way to overcome Tepper and field a winning team. He's not unwilling to sell, he just admits it would take a number substantially bigger than anyone should rightly consider to get him to sign the papers.

I actually think we've built a decent situation for a QB to step into while trying to build around Bryce. We have a good OL, a good running game, and we have some talent at receiver. The very obvious thing holding back this offense is the lack of ability at the most important spot (and Canales not riding Rico).

The primary fixture of the Tepper era has been referring to the stupidest rationale possible as the "master plan".

I just don't know if Tepper is ready to swallow that bitter pill yet and unfortunately watching guys like Darnold and Baker bounce back elsewhere and now Daniel Jones too could be giving him the false impression that we still need to keep building around Bryce and not give up yet ignoring the reality that those other guys have a lot more talent than Bryce.

You gotta try. You absolutely cannot understand any circumstances go into next year with Bryce penciled in as the unquestioned starter. You have to at least bring in a veteran to legitimately compete. This clown show of pretending that Bryce is our franchise QB has to stop.

Yeah, it's never a good plan to go all in on doing a specific thing. Tepper was hell bent on a 1st round QB when we traded up to #1 for Bryce. The football staff correctly surmised that sitting at #9 was going to be too low in the draft order to land any of the 1st round QBs with three QBs ending up going in the top 4 picks. Being hell bent on taking a QB high in the 1st meant we were forced into an insanely expensive trade up and that has played a huge role in getting us into the mess where we currently reside. Just add a solid journeyman vet to legitimately compete with Bryce next year and then let the chips fall where they may in the draft.

Honestly, I'd take at least a third of that list over Bryce/Dalton.

I'm all in on keeping our options open. We need to sign a legit veteran journeyman in FA and then we need to keep QB on the table in the draft. If the right fit is there in the 1st, great. Take him. If not, take the BPA or listen to trade offers coming in and then try to add a developmental guy after the 1st. But we cannot go into next year still pretending that Bryce Young and the washed up ghost of Andy Dalton is the answer.

Stubbornly sticking with Chuba while someone who has never even watched football before could tell that Rio is the clearly better player right now is just baffling.

Yeah, the Texans and Niners. LOL Looks like the litany of injuries has finally caught up to the Niners. Guys are still dropping and they just have nobody left. The injury bug they've been bitten by this year is wild.

LOL It's 40-3 bruh

We all knew that 4-3 was fool's gold but man, this is an absolute drubbing.

I wish we'd shop a late round pick to see what might be available, especially with the D taking a slide today facing a real offense for the first time in awhile. Should be painfully obvious that this team can't compete against non-basement dwellers with our current QBs.

Chuba shouldn't be getting off the bench right now unless Rico's tongue dragging the ground. It's painfully obvious Rico is head and shoulders better.

Well... Sucks for the Falcons. They have a struggling young QB who has at least shown some promise but they don't even get to enjoy the rookie QB contract window because they're stuck paying Bryce Cousins on a starting QB contract.
