We have been conditioned to a new low bar for not that bad.

 

This is so true.  We got drubbed by 10 at home vs a Bengals teams who defense is almost as bad as ours and the sentiment is "at least we were competitive."  Thats how bad its gotten.  I wonder how long that thinking will hold up... if we end up 3-10 or 4-11 down the stretch will people still still be ok with just being competitive?

basically.  yeah.  Bar is so low that just not being lifeless is good.  

and now we are demanding 1st round trade compensation just because a dude the league rejected caught a couple balls against bad teams.   I could of beat that Bengal defender last week given how bad he was playing.  Everyone ran by him all game long.

Honestly yes. 4-11 while being theoretically able to win most games is about the best case scenario for this season, especially with the defensive injuries we've sustained. It would give us the platform to build the roster based off of what Canales and his system requires. We're also gonna dump a bunch of dead cap this offseason so we should be able to play around in FA.

Improvement is what we're looking for, and 4-11 while being competitive is miles ahead of where we were last year.

I haven't had a shred of hope since draft night 2023, until they benched draft night 2023. 

Which was a decline from the very little hope I had since Tepper bought the team

I remember when we had LUKE in the scouting dept., then he was out the next year. I bet he left cuz no one listened to him or actually watched tape. It’s probably like RAS this and Nicole likes this one and let’s pick the hurt guy and prove everyone wrong!

    • I respect Deion but I said and thought immediately when he was hired there he would not be the coach after 3 seasons.  I don’t see it happening 
    • If my reply comes off argumentative, that is not my intention so please don’t take it as such.  You said one word, probably subconsciously, in your post that immediately disqualifies him from being a QB in the NFL. You actually said it twice. Kid. It’s exactly how you see him, and exactly how the rest of the entire NFL sees him as well.  Yes, he is a kid, he looks and acts like a kid and that exactly IS the problem. The NFL is for grown ass men. Period. Hell, our kicker looks like he collects ‘taxes’ as a side hustle. These are straight dudes. Men.  Nothing in his persona changed from last year to this.  Nothing in his physical stature. Nothing. He has shown 0 development. 0. And he disrespects the entire organization, talking video games and Netflix in the offseason. Bro. Really. My man Chuba is busting his ass to look good for his second contract. Set himself up for life. How many RBs make it to even sign contract #3? First 2 games he has to run in to a brick wall continuously because Netflix can’t even get it over the LOS.  He’s a kid who pulled off the biggest heist in world history. He looks happier on the sideline goofing around than he ever has looked on the field. It’s time to cut bait. 
    • I hear you and I can imagine it's frustrating as a fan, but UNC-CH leaving the ACC would be throwing away over a century of history. It would really suck if y'all, or Clemson, or any of the other remaining charter members leave. I still think it sucks that Maryland left as well. Feels so wrong not having that rivalry anymore. Maryland fuging hated us and I loved it. Who's Maryland's rival now in the big 10? Rutgers? lol. Also, I think that the Heels are more likely to be Kentucky 2.0 than you are to get serious about football upon joining the SEC. Both UNC (and also Duke's) administrations seem very stuck in their ways with sticking to their ways and remaining basketball powerhouses. I do wish we could see NC teams actually competing in my favorite sport sometimes but alas. I personally value keeping our history intact over trying to become top flight CFB programs because nowadays it's just a pay to win sport anyways. Even if UNC-CH got serious I doubt they could compete with that Texas oil money, or that Oregon nike money, or that USC rich kid money. That's all top level college football really is anymore. You're either an established blue blood or you're willing to waste tons of money that could be spent on education rather than football.
