What this truly shows is that a great drafting GM does make a world of difference.  Where Atlanta is praying they can get 2nd & 3rd rounders to contribute strong but fall short, we have a GM that has picked up 5th rounders and UDFA that START and make solid contributions to this team and are part of the reason we sit where we are today.

It also helps, when you have a good coach-who communicates with the GM-so you have an overall cohesive strategy, and know who you are, what you wanna do.

I've said that for a while.  Ryan is not and will never be in the class of Rodgers/Manning/Brees/Brady/Cam, but he is in the range of guys like Eli, Dalton, Flacco, and Alex Smith.  Those guys won't single handedly win you a superbowl, but they also won't cost you a superbowl either.  I said when they sold the farm to draft Julio that by doing that, they'd get a quick fix but long term failure because of it.  Julio is hitting his prime, but they lack depth, and the hope for 2nd and 3rd rounders is to hopefully be starters and 4+ round guys being second stringers, well they gave up a couple of starters and a lot of second stringers by doing that.  When you add that in with the fact they are paying out the ass for Ryan when compared to his skillset, then you realize they don't have the money or talent to prop up a mid tier QB.

Ultimately, I wouldn't be surprised in the least to see them run that horse faced asshole outta town, but as much as I hate him, I could see him doing well for someone with a team already there around him like Houston, Denver, or maybe even St Louis with their defense.

Just a great post!  That's exactly what I think, just way better said!

Julio was a hope and a prayer.  While he's a great player, they lack the other pieces.  They've missed out on some draft picks in the meantime as well.  In order to climb out of their current hole, they are going to have to hit on some draft picks and hit on those FA pick ups.  Their front office hasn't had much success in either avenue.  

I can't say I feel bad, or even sympathetic to the Falcons.  I've hated them for so long, I kind of enjoy watching the hope fade from the franchise and fan base right now =)  I'm not a good person =)

This is the first time that I've been successfully approved on an opposing forum (my name is AarghMatty btw). Everyone else (Titans, Redskins, Cowboys, Saints, Packers...) all turned me down. (CheeseCannonInMaPants was solid gold). 

Anyway, I just feel bad now. This was supposed to be fun.

Ryan would be great in Houston, Houston should legit try to make this happen. It would also be funny because then he would follow Schaub again. I doubt we really destroy anyone the rest of the season, everyone is gonna be too fired up and they're mostly division rival games. No one I really hate on the Falcons though, they're all kinda bland players who aren't really good or bad. I remember on Hard Knocks their center at the time was a bitch, but I also really liked Freeman, he seemed really down to earth and a good guy. His personality would fit in on the Panthers I think. 

It's crazy to think back to the 2011, 2012 days and be like... one day we'll be on top again. Now here we are, the Saints and Falcons are going down the toilet and the Panthers and Bucs are on the rise. Luckily I think our timing was better than the Bucs and we should maintain the top of the pack for a while, but the Jameis-Cam match-ups are gonna be the real deal for the next decade, which is pretty cool, assuming Jameis develops into the legit NFL talent he appears to be.

Lovie Smith doesn't have the best record with developing quarterbacks. Granted, he may never have had access to QB talent like Jameis. I just hope Winston has turned his life around. I don't hate the bucs. And I would really hate to start truly hating them for their thug QB. 

If they can run their organization with some integrity, I wont mind staying classy in our rivalry with them. 

Now the Falcons and Saints... they're just shitty organizations from top to bottom. Sure I bet there are admirable players and staff members on those teams, but as a whole, there's no love lost for me. I'm all to happy to watch the saints and Falcons flounder around for next five years (or ten) in mediocrity or less

Well of course they're agreeing with what you post since the things you've said are negative towards the Panthers.

Are you saying that you're trolling them by pretending to be a Falcons fan?

Saying insane delusional things that any true FOOTBALL fan would see to be trolling. For gods sake I'm spelling Norman Nortman.

      My Personal Takeaway from This Game vs Cheifs

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      What I really learned here is that the Carolina Panthers aren't anywhere near as bad as I initially thought they were earlier this year.  We've got a young and growing offense with some promising parts. But it still needs some tweaks and improvements.  We really still could still use a dominant #1 WR. But Chubba,  Legette, Coker,  and J.Sanders have generally looked decent. Bryce took a big leap after the benching. We can score enough points to keep pace with 2x defending super bowl champions, so offense isn't a huge issue. Main thing that needs improvement is defense. We sorely need a CB 2, and a number of new players at Dline and LB.  We're not quite as bad at edge with Wonnum showing promise.  But we definitely need 1 or 2 more edges Clowney is old.  Run D is probably worse prevailing theme these past couple years. We really need a good young stud or two to pair with Derrick Brown and another LB to pair up with Trevin Wallace. If Morgan and Canales can focus on rebuilding the defense this off-season and possibly going out and getting a #1 WR. This team could easily be somewhere around 7-10 to 10-7 and flirting with playoffs in 1 or 2 seasons. Overall this game has made me feel alot more positive about the direction of the team.

      Team is looking good for next season

      By PadresPanthersFan · Posted

      With our picks we need pass rush, lb, Safety, a speedster yac wr, o line depth and I still want a mid round qb. We got 9 picks and 8 in the first 5 rounds. If they pull Off another solid draft we be cooking.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By frankw · Posted

      We had one passing touchdown against the Giants and one passing touchdown against the Chiefs today. Yes a good backup can replicate that. And that is why Andy Dalton in significantly less games has the same number of 30 point outings as Bryce Young. I am on board with you guys about wanting to be hopeful for the future. Today was a good performance to build on especially at home. But let's please keep things in perspective. BTW the Bucs who honestly aren't even that good blew the doors off the Giants today after we went to overtime against them with 17 points. Again. Perspective.
