  1. The problem is, I just think Bryce is too short to see the field. He can't see the passing lanes because he can't see over the line, and that's why he bails the pocket so quickly on a comparative basis.
  2. Good Lord! I bet the O-line play wasn't the worst since 1980. And @thebdawg, injuries absolutely can make for a bad showing at the end of the day. That's not an excuse, it's just a fact.
  3. The playoffs are on the line; you play to win the damned game. It's really preposterous to think that the Panthers will strive to do otherwise. But I can understand the rationale of fans thinking losing would be better in the short and long term, I just disagree with it. At some point you have to think in terms of standing on business while winning, not looking to improve by losing. fug a few spots at draft position. I've always said that if your GM, scouts and HC can't identify talent to improve the team in every round, especially days one and two, then they don't need to be on the job. I give them the built-in grace on day three, but only because of historical probabilities, but there is no excuse for not being able to come away with at least one impactful starter on day one, and very little excuse to not come away with one on day two. No one will ever make me believe that when you have first, second and even third round draft picks that you can't come away with a player that continually (not continuously) has a positive affect on the field, so it makes little sense in my opinion to whine about approximately five draft positions. Now if we get to the playoffs and win in the first round, admittedly our draft position would be markedly different, but I'm never gonna cry about winning. Like AI said, I expect the FO to do its damned job regardles.
  4. I remember vividly when some Huddlers were telling us that Purdy was no good. You told us that he couldn't play without being stocked with stars at the offensive skill positions. That's not true.
  5. We'll always come up short with Bryce. Low ceiling and lower floor.
  6. This game just sucked. Despite the fact that Jaycee had an unbelievably dumb penalty, it's easy to believe we weren't going to do a damned thing anyway. Such a horrible, uninspiring display of offensive football.
  7. Well, assuming that we do what we should do (Dave being a big part in that equation), we should have at least one, if not two guys that can give Bryce some motivation at the very least.
  8. Let's see how DC handles this five-plus minutes. We need to score relatively fast. We need to go vertical-ish and start pushing the ball down field. Screens and quick-outs ain't gonna do it.
  9. Where is our JSN? We hardly ever have a streaking crosser who catches in stride.
  10. All of that's agreeable, it's just not helping us today. I'm not averse to Canales getting another shot or two, especially in light of not being able to pick his QB, but he needs an OC.
  11. If you're going to praise a coach today, then it's Evero. Canales ain't done a damned thing of note.
  12. But you know what? The halftime adjustments are going to tell the story, and in my opinion Dave hasn't shown to be stellar in that area either. An astuteness at play calling, halftime adjustments and situational play calling is how we win. We'll see what happens.
  13. It's not creative, that's for sure. I've never seen anything from him, ever, that is indicative of anything but a C+ caller (if I'm being generous).
  14. All these quick-outs and screen passes ain't hitting on too much.
  15. I agree to a point, and I've also said something similar. The thing is though, it's arguable that some other positions are a higher priority, and we just can't be in the business of passing up higher graded players at other positions to fill others, especially when we haven't even given current players the chance to pan out after only a season. I mean, at some point, if our guys show a higher consistency of flashes, you have to let them develop. I'm not averse to drafting an LB (EDGE or tackling machine) first, but they have to be definitely better than others at other positions.
  16. Scourton and Umanmielen? Oh, surely you're talking about MLBs.
