Only possible explanation...they want his value to plummet so they can bring him back on the cheap. He has been bad the past two weeks and they refuse to change.

He really should give it a go here then. It's what a head coach should do. Take over your team when its not working. Brady isn't working.

Can Rhule turn off Joe's microphone and call the game? Like I don't know if he's ever called a play before, but he can't be worse. What we are seeing here is comical. The team looked better when Cam knew less of the offense. The more of Brady's offense that is incorporated, the worse he looks. F Brady's offense, play to the players strengths and not the coaches ego.

I mean, think back to the Eagles game earlier this year. Carolina should have been up 30 at the half. They weren't and the Eagles stole one. Shoe is on the other foot this time. Could've been run out of the building due to miscues, haven't been, find a way to win.

Donte seems like a really good dude, but he'll be a Bill or a WFT member next year.

I don't think its a talent issue with this team. Coaches need to make adjustments. Put your best players on Waddle and force them to do something else. Same thing as last week. Washington had 1 receiving threat and was pounding the ball. No adjustments whatsoever to counter it. Gilmore has to be losing his mind. To go from a coaching staff that says "we're going to take away what you do best" to a coaching staff that says "we're just trying to make one more play than the other team."

After that half, to have a chance. This team has to take advantage and win the f'ing game. The NFL top to bottom is kind of crap this year, there are no good teams. Find a way to win this and keep pounding.

Alright, so third quarter...this week it will be different. Right? Right?

This team has a little more than a half to play smart. If they play smart, they'll still win. The early parts of this game have been a team playing dumb.

Have to call some plays that don't require receivers to fight back to the ball. They are getting bullied by the corners and not fighting.

The entire NFL really let Cam sit at home for half a damn season. There are quite a few GM's that should be getting "Really, couldn't use this guy?" calls from their owners.

Glass half full, most of the league is wildly inconsistent this year. If you told me that in a few months the Panthers would be 10-7, I'd believe it. If you told me they would be 7-10, I'd believe it. This is a weird year and with the 17 game season, everything is wide open. Bucs are world beaters until they run into the Saints and WFT. Rams think they have the Greatest Show on Turf 2.5 and then get rocked by the 49ers. Cowboys are on top of the world and then Teddy McMittens and the Broncos stomp them. Packers lost to the Saints early, went on a run and then Vikings got em today. Cardinals were great, hit an injury patch and look pedestrian now. In the AFC the Titans and Bills were juggernauts until they got the brakes beat off them. Long story short, call it parity or just crazy inconsistency but there are exactly 0 teams that look unbeatable and exactly 0 that are completely futile. Even the Lions fight like hell even if the results don't show it. It's just a weird year.

The rest of this year is the audition. Cam, CMC, and DJ give this team a chance every week. If they can get the 7th seed, the staff is back next year. If they get to 8 wins I think you see some turnover but Rhule is safe. If this team ends 6-11, I can't see Rhule back. This coaching staff has tied their fate to the next 6 weeks. You don't go get Gilmore, you don't go sign Cam unless the directive is to win now. They fast tracked the rebuild by bringing in veteran talent. If it doesn't work out there is no more "but we need a QB" or "the D is too young still." Instead it will be "We gave you (Rhule) the pieces and you didn't hold up your end of the bargain."

Taylor had a great freaking game. He had a few Russell Wilson style balls where it looked like it would be picked 75% of the time and they just kept being huge completions. I ain't gonna ever hate on a dude who everyone had given up on who has now created a niche for himself. Hate that he balled out today, but happy for the dude overall.

What's crazy is that if they don't resign him after this year, there's like, I would say a 80% chance he ends up back with Ron.

The holding calls today really hurt and were bullsh*# Everytime WFT got pancaked, they came up looking for a flag and got rewarded for it.

Cam and CMC in a backfield together should be a third and short cheat code. They want to get first downs, ride CMC and Cam. Make the D decide if they want to try and stop one of the best RB in the game or the best short yardage run QB of all time. 3rd and long, sure, that's a problem for every team. 3rd and short and it should be so automatic that they start moving the chains at the snap.

That 3rd down and a quarter of the field play was the biggest one of the game. Unbelievable that they didn't unleash the hounds there.

Washington is capable of playing keep away. I don't think the offense sees the ball again if they punt there.

With Cam, they can go on a run. Will they, who knows. Probably need to get to 10-7 to make the playoffs since like every tie breaker is unfavorable. The team has life again, not the result we wanted today but there's more hope today than 12 days ago.

Offense had 2 different chances on 4th and short and Brady called garbage.

RIVERA MADE THE SAME MISTAKE AGAINST THE BILLS. MAKE HIM PAY

I BELIEVE. KEEP POUNDING.

Getting him out of bounds was crucial
