So you guys want to bring in Carr. What would be the end goal here. He will never get us to the SB and would only make this an average team at best. I heard the same reasoning with Mayfield. Stop the madness!

Minshew is no better than Sam Darnold.

You are not the only person that uses that phrase. I know it well.

He had a wide open receiver in the end zone right in front of him but decided to throw it over the head of a double cover receiver instead.

Easiest way to keep Brady on the bench is to get the run game going. He can get roughing the passer calls if his ass is on the bench while we run it down their throat.

I just have no desire to see another vet bridge qb come in here to wetnurse a rookie until he's ready. Especially if it costs more draft picks and top 10 qb money. If you are going to go that route just draft a qb and try to convince Sam to stick around another season while they get the rookie ready for 2024.

Exactly.

Every outcast qb is a potential landing spot with the Panthers. Tell me something we don't already know.

A real football stadium had to be available somewhere.

There is a baseball diamond under the turf on one end of the field.

That field is garbage. Whoever chose this stadium to play this game should be fired.

Before anyone asks, no, just no.

I can live with that.

The common theme I take away from these interviews between Derrick and Shaq is that some guys got special treatment and that didn't sit well with a lot of these guys. I think McCaffrey and Side Show Bob were two of the special treatment guys and could be the main reason McCaffrey asked for a trade. Wilks wasn't playing that game.

I agree with all of this. I will add that I think Wilks realized what the reality of the situation was and accepted it for what it is. We have to get back to basics. Get rid of the malcontents and start over with the pieces. We had a somewhat competitive defense, most days. The offense was a mess and couldn't even do anything remotely competitive. The qbs couldn't pass and the rbs couldn't get 100 yards if you spotted them 50 yrds. So the easiest fix was the run game because the qbs would take a miracle. It appears we can check the run game off the list. The defense is still not good but it'll do for now. Now to step 2, the qbs. Where do you start here? Im sure he and McAdoo had a game of rock-paper-scissors to see who gets to make that call. So Sam it is. All that is left to do now is try get him comfortable in the pocket and able to read a defense. Its a tough challenge indeed but it looks to be showing a little progress. Baby steps i guess. So what you are seeing are the results of a methodical development of an nfl team. The only problem is I do not think they have enough time to see if it will work out.

No.

Whether he gets the Panthers gig or not Wilks is earning the opportunity to coach somewhere next season.

That makes it even sweeter.

Happy Holidays brother!

Russell Wilson has officially become the worst quarterback in the nfl. PJ Walker and Sam Darnold can now breathe a scy of relief.

He's got talent I'll give him that. But unfortunately for him he doesn't have the kind of talent that can't easily be replaced from the draft.

The hell you talking about? All I said was he's playing better, as the rest of the team. Get over yourself you insecure angry little man. Merry f*cking Christmas to you too!

Nah, we know if they lose some of you will be here to crow about how bad this team is and that you were right that we should have been tanking to get so and so.

It appears to me that they are starting to figure out their identity and what they are capable of. Under Rhule they didn't have that trust or clarity of purpose. They also didn't have any leadership that could speak from experience to guide them. What you see is a young team coming together. You see a experienced NFL coach getting a you team to believe in itself. You see a young team that trusts and believes in the coach. Something that's been missing for quite some time. Will it be enough to overcome the obstacles ahead of them? It's a tall order.
