How can you say a team that went 2-15 with both wins needing last minute scores and did not even have their the #1 overall pick can be a retool? 

Why can’t our GMs just be honest and state that we started our rebuild this year? We aren’t stupid as fans. We’ve had 6 years of losing and our prior GM tried to convince us that we just needed a QB and that our 2023 team was better than the team with CMC and Moore.

I feel better about this team over last year but what we started this offseason with was a team in desperate need of a rebuild. A retool means we were competitive last year and we were the worst team by far.

It's gotta be all the QB gambles. Hard to admit it you need to do a rebuild in the 2nd year of your rookie qb window after all they gave up to get him.

First, there is fact. 31 teams passed on claiming him, for whatever reason. So we wouldn't be the only guilty party.

I would have kept him, but it wasn't a huge issue for me that he is gone either, and looking at things the best he could do was ... 8th on SF depth chart? That will probably improve for him but where would he be if he got on the 53, to impact anything? He is struggling to be in the NFL.

I think Morgan is safe on him. That edge thing, that has to be fixed. But it is year one and everyone here pretty much agreed it isn't a one offseason fix. So.. 

I like Dan so far. I like his cap guy. 

On the cap thing, that guy is about to earn his money.

Main factor is age. 24 years old. Meanwhile we have 5 WR's two of which are 29 and 34.

It's an offensive league. Having had the worst passing offense in the league last year IMO the pass catchers are thin barring unforseen circumstances.

There's things to like about Morgan and I liked the bringing on of Tillis. Certainly there is more to slot as positive than there is to question. But in this league sometimes small things become big things you just never know.

Either way regardless of results this year next season we need to continue reloading our offense.

I think he basically wants to avoid the rebuild mindset in the locker room interfere (oops, interfering) with his rebuild. 

As to what else was said, I lol'd at the double standard coach speak about the corners - size matters, they have a prototype - where was that when it really counted? 

At the same time indicating Young is being coached pretty hard (my words), and personally by Canales and giving the impression that it is taking, that is a good thing to hear.

Watch it (for yourself). Basically doesn't like 'expectations'. Which, if I didn't I would have said 'they can limit you'.

Reads to me like they don't wanna put a public win target on the year.  I don't blame them.

Yeah he knows this team blows

They were very careful with the rebuilding questions too. Knowing full well the speed of a rebuild depends on a QB

About TMJ and next season when one or both AT and DJ are gone, his contract is done, right? He is young but his contract isn't. 

With the soaring costs of WR deals, the investment of a 1 and a 2 in consecutive years... I am not saying he will command a ton but it looks like the deals are inflated as hell now, so pay him or fill the gap with the next man up? Whoever that is.

The rebuild-retool thing is coach-speak.

It doesn't matter as long as we're improving on the personnel side. That's the bottom line and reason for churning the roster.

Just drop all the re- words and say we're building a team here.  What's the big deal?  We're not starting over at QB this year.  It's a dumb question tbh.

they want out from that it appears, he is expensive and getting older.  They probably will just bite the bullet next on year on him

Yep seems like they’re going to ride this out with Moton as they should. I think they know he doesn’t have much left. Missed a ton of camp days and I feel like he’s been dealing with a knee issue since forever

If they cut Moton next year they’ll free up 17 million in space 

If by some miracle we don’t need to draft a QB in 2025 I’m guessing we’ll go tackle with our top 10 pick

      Real Mid-Season Development at QB: Bo Nix

      By Icege · Posted

      One has a proven, offensive-minded, Super Bowl winning head coach along with a top 5 OL + defense. He's being protected and getting the ball back not having to chase the other teams. The other had Frank Reich + Thomas Brown their rookie year with a bottom 5 defense as well as a bottom 5 OL that gave up the 2nd most sacks against a rookie QB ever. The sophomore season is being ran with a top 5 OL but also with a rookie HC (that has just one year of OC experience) and a bottom 5 defense still. The Broncos defense has allowed over 20pts just three times this season (26 vs. SEA (L), 23 vs. LAC (L), 41 vs. BAL (L)). Meanwhile, the Panthers have had ONE game where the defense gave up less than 20pts (vs. NYG (W)).   I'm not sure how folks couldn't expect Bo Nix to statistically perform better given their incredibly different situations. With that said, I didn't expect Nix to keep ascending as impressively as he has this season. Hopefully his arc will give other older college QBs a better shot, especially given the recent media blitz against the NFL regarding how development of the QB position in the league seems to be non-existent. Hopefully Bryce continues to improve as well, of course.

      Real Mid-Season Development at QB: Bo Nix

      By 7CLOWNS · Posted

      “You can learn a lot in 10 games,” Nix said. “[I’m] still learning, still growing, but just finding ways to execute the play that’s called, no matter what it is: run play, pass play. It doesn’t matter. Just finding the right way to go with the ball.” To that point, Nix noted how his developing partnership with head coach Sean Payton has helped Denver’s offense get to the next level. “To be honest, I think at the beginning, you kind of make the NFL bigger than what it actually is,” Nix said when asked where he feels he’s made the most strides. “These players are really good, but at the same time, you have really good players on your level. I think simplifying the game, trying to play as fast as possible, and finding a completion, which is what we’ve been able to do here recently. “I think as we’ve gone on, Coach and I have found a good rhythm of what we both like, what we can kind of put out there on the field, and what we can execute. Then the guys have kind of adapted to it, found our roles within the offense, and executed at a high level. It’s just all about slowing the game down and processing things in a manner that you can handle. Just kind of see one or two things, and let those guys take you to where the ball is supposed to be.” -Bo Nix From what I'm gathering regarding Bryce, the Panthers entered this season with a reset mindset. It's Young's rookie year, which explains the benching. Now, we're beginning to see the development of Canales and Young's offense. Slow development but we're winning 😃

      Bix has more tds through his first 11 games than bryce has his entire career....no comparison at all he made amazing throws during his first games his decision making just keeps getting better.  Young does not have the physical ability ro make the rhrows bo makes
