That same Aints team with a full staff just lost to the Giants

They beat a good Packers team and smothered a New England team that took TB down to the wire... I would say NO isn't as bad as the loss to the Giants, or as good as beating GB, but some place between...

My prediction:  we will be in the playoffs this year.

Even after yesterday's poor performance, we've allowed only 66 points -- best in the NFC, and (probably after tonight) 3rd in the NFL, behind only Buffalo and Denver.

Only 1 team, Arizona, has a better record than our 3-1.

3 wins out of every 4 games we play will equal 9-3 when we reach our bye week.  Of the next 8 games we play, only Arizona has won more games than they've lost.

The team sounds like they took this loss as a wake up call.

This season is far from over.

Before the season started If you told me we would be 3-1 at this point I would be ecstatic.

Without our best weapon we went toe-to-toe with a really good team on the road yesterday and were in it until the end. 

Size matchup vs our DL was a problem and that’s not surprising.

We were up at halftime and eventually lost by one possession to a very good Dallas team that easily could be undefeated right now.  

We lost the game because of the 3rd quarter.  That's a bummer, but really I came away from that game optimistic as hell.  The offense kept humming.  The defense started making some stops in the 4th, although not quite enough.  

I feel great about where this team is at.

Chinn isn't a FS but we are forcing him to play most snaps at FS.

This is glaring. We’ve taken away a lot of what chinn does well by moving him to FS. 
 

I like Chinn in the box and making plays in the run game. Not chasing down receivers after blown assignments.

It boils down to the Panthers had a cupcake first 3 weeks with 2 rookie QBs on bad teams and a Saints team led by Famous with a weakened roster/staff with covid and injuries. 
 

The secondary looked completely lost in the second half. I’m not sure if losing Horn was a reason yet. Their OLine looked like it was twice the size of our DLine. I didn’t like that matchup at all. 
 

They ran into a stud QB on a loaded team who will probably challenge for the NFC. Need to take this game and throw it in the trash and move on 

After reading your first sentence, I was prepared to poo you, but you're actually spot on. We faced 2 rookie QB's on bad teams, and a good NO team that came in cocky after taking GB to the woodshed. The fact that a lot of the coaches were missing certainly didn't help their odds.

Our secondary WAS out of sorts yesterday. It was the first game for the 2 guys lining up across from Jackson, CJ had only been on the team a few days, and AJ was signed to play nickel. Both are a huge step down from how well Horn had played. Luckily, our next "hard" game is weeks away, so they can hopefully improve.

Dallas really is pretty damned good on both sides of the ball. If they keep playing like this, they should go far into the playoffs. And we certainly didn't roll over for them. Without those 2 turnovers in the 2nd half, and blown call on the 1 in the 1rst half, we probably win this. On to the next game, Maybe we'll get that rematch in January.

I’m glad you came to your senses sir

Sup catman, hope all is well.

I thought they were a 7 win team before the start, but I seen a decent chance at going 8-1 or even 10-2. I think believe they could easily pass my 7 wins number.

      We looked like a competent NFL team PIE thread

      By Prowler2k18 · Posted

      We could easily pick apart yesterday’s game: dropped passes, blown coverages, bad tackling and red zone issues to name a few. But it was clear that this wasn’t the same team from earlier in the season. They fought back and hung with the champs until the end. That’s what I was excited to see and it gives me hope that we’re on the right track.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Pejorative Miscreant · Posted

      I think BY played well today and exceeded expectations. I will temper future expectations as he has to string together many games of consistent quality. One game doesn’t convince me that he is a franchise QB or even a guy you want to stick with for another season. One game doesn’t erase all the negative play and limitations from the past couple of years. I hope he balls out and continues to get better but for me the verdict is still out   That said, I think he gave the team and fans hope yesterday which is a lot more than what we had when we woke up Sunday morning.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By Ricky Prickles · Posted

      He was vastly improved today and we need to see more of Bryce the rest of the season to continue evaluate him in order to decide what the heck to do with him at the end of the season. He must play at least like this and improve more from here the rest of the season in order for me to keep him. No more 123 yard passing games and want to see at least this output weekly from him. If this is Bruce improving slowly over time then Canales is even better with developing QB's than I thought he was but still too early to tell and we need to see him the rest of the way as he has at very least earned back the starting gig moving forward.
