This team just can't overcome mistakes.

As Fox was showing the graphic and replays of missed chances to score Cam fumbles.

 

The gameplans on both sides of the ball have not been bad. However, there is NO margin of error for this team.

 

Steve Smith jumps up and down like he wins the lottery when he gets a first down and now I know why. Dude dropped the easiest TD he may get all season.

 

Lafell is hit right in the chest on a 4th and 1 the whole fan base has been asking for.

 

 

The Panthers are like a good hearted crack head. He really wants to do better but can't say no to very dumb things and always seems to have bad drama going on around him.

I'm glad that thus far I haven't seen many people harping on the 4th down decision in the first half, because I thought it was a good decision, and a good play call that had our #2 reciever just flat out poo the bed.  Second half is where crap really got bad, but although I'm pissed with Rivera, this game was more on very poor play by the players than anything.  Smitty is no longer a #1, and Lafell has no business being more than a #3-4 with his stone hands and ability to become the invisible man.  Ginn is sadly our best, and most consistent reciever right now.

IMO, its mostly mental by now.  We have lost so many close ones that we expect to lose when we go into the 4th quarter.  While I don't blame Rivera for all of it, I do think its going to take a complete change of staff, and maybe a few personnel as well, to fix it.  In truth we had the same issue in 2001/2002.  Great defense, crappy offense and a lot of close losses.

at the end of the day we have to stop "settling"..... settling on resting the plays that actual brought the success that kept us in the game, settling for starting below average players (O-LINE) in key positions, settling on not making proper personnel adjustments (coaching staff), and certainly settling on having a do it later or eventually within the game mentality! we can't win like this! and we don't deserve to get lucky! we deserve  as many heartbreaking sunday buttkickings  until we fix all of these issues not to mention our "Defensive- Minded" head coach

    • I complete disagree. Who is available is extremely relevant. If you have a couple of players you would be happy with and you can still get them if you trade back, you should do that in a heartbeat. Being afraid that people will lowball you next year is an odd stance. Then you just say no next year, problem solved. In this particular draft you can get a very good player at 46. But to each their own.
    • I don't think so.  Watson really screwed them up.  I see something happening, but do not know what.  Cousins could be had in a trade--but they liked Flacco when he played there.  If it were me, I would not spend the #2 pick on Sanders.  I would go after a tier 2 qb because I think Will Howard is going to start in the NFL soon, and I think Ewers was rated very high at the beginning of the year--he knows adversity and he beat out a Manning while taking Texas to 2 playoff appearances.  I am not good at picking QBs, but I think Howard's run pass option and his accuracy is going to help someone.  Stay in Ohio and play for the Browns behind Flacco--
    • After Cam at #1, there are three or four elite players and there could be a trade--If I am the Giants and I am needed a winning season badly and I have several needs, I might trade out and pick up mid first and an extra second rounder, including a QB--while nobody is going to move up to #3 for Sanders, they might for Carter or Hunter.  If the Giants then move back, Sanders could still be in play.  That could be the trade in the top 3.  New England wants Campbell and I get that; Jacksonville at #5 could move back if someone wants Graham or Jeanty.  But barring some trade, the top 4 are probably locked in. So it could be 2 hours into the draft before we get any surprises. Nice list, by the way--you nailed it.
