I was excited we brought in Matt Rhule and Joe Brady to start a rebuild. I was thinking even though Bucs picked up Brady he might have a chance at a SB and be gone in a couple years. Saints we’re losing Brees soon as well and would be going downhill. And we’ll Falcons are falcons not worried about them. I was like ok this rebuild might take two years or so just want to see them be ready by year 3. Now almost halfway through year two we don’t look good at all. We have no oline, and no franchise qb to build with anytime soon. Also guess what Brady has already won SB first year with Bucs and looks like he will play five more years. Payton has saints playing well enough with Winston even though we beat them which I’m starting to believe was a fluke with all the guys they were missing. And Falcons  have looked worse than us but have one loss less than us. I haven’t seen many people talk about the way the division was setting up good for us down the road, but now I’m not certain at all. What do y’all think?

The point of a rebuild is to gradually improve and over time get better by adding and developing young pieces. We all knew we were going to suck for while with having a young roster. So far, Rhule and his staff has somehow poo the bed and team has gotten worse than when we initially started.

This is the overlying concern and why the state of things is as it is currently.

Almost two years ago….. our defense was 23rd in yards per play allowed and 31st in points allowed per game.

 

Currently our defense is 3rd in yards per play allowed and 7th in points per game allowed.

 

There is a lot of woah regarding what the team doesn't have instead of being exited about what we do have. We are in year 2 of a rebuilding process. The early resources were spent on defense and the team is starting to see the results of that effort. I trust that we will see similar results on offense in a year or two.

As for the OPs question:

  • Jameis ain't all that, he's just as awkward in the backfield as Sam. I suspect he will be replaced once the 'aints have the ammo.
  • The Falcons are going to be going to be in the QB market themselves very soon. Have you seem Matt Ryan's contract? Dude is likely gone next season.
  • Brady is an unknown. He's good, but benefits immensely from an all-star roster of vets that make team friendly deals in order to ring chase. Ultimately father time is undefeated. Our team is being built to handle the Bucs though ... what other reason is there for our Pokémon like obsession with good CBs? Going to need a LOT of guys to cover everyone wearing pewter and red.

Basically, our near-term competition is the Bucs and our long term competition is probably the Saints (at least as long as they have Payton).

I’ve heard Father Time is undefeated about Brady for the past 5 years I’m not falling for it anymore!

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      By Aussie Tank · Posted

      I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball

      Is running back on the table for the panthers this draft?

      100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.

      I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
