Doesn't mean we couldn't have won. We still ran the ball well w/ D-will, and add Stewart to that mix. And Shanchise would have thrown a few picks had he played the entire game. 5-10 12 yards.

Revis would have shut down Steve Smith the way he did last year. The running game wouldnt have been enough to win.

The main "weakness" the prognosticators were yappin' about has shown itself to be a strength any way you look at it preseason or not.

I'd put Captain back there instead of Edwards for now. His struggling spotted the Jokes two scores.

J- O -K -E!!! JOKES! JOKES! JOKES!

The game might've been close, but Sanchez blew and their offense wouldn't have did much. Also, their run game was better with their 2nd and 3rd stringers than it was with their first.

Smitty would've got open as Revis is going to be exposed as an overhyped CB, while Jarrett made a few 3rd down plays. Williams and Stewart would've tore it up.

Minus the PR woes the game would've probably be a Panthers win anyway.

I thought the same thing last night. Personally, IDK. QB play was "eh". Run game was great (as usual). Defense played well, overall. Special teams were...well, special teams in Carolina. Granted, I thought they were a little better (but not much) last night. It's iffy. But there is a possibility, if only because the defense did such a good job.

Defense played "well"??? DEFENSE PLAYED fugIN SPECTACULAR. just as good as the number one defense in football apparently.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
