I think Thielen is done. Might be a nice guy for Keon to learn from or if someone gets hurt. That’s probably it.

That’s the thing. EJ wasn’t Marrone’s guy. It’s true dysfunction. Marrone had no belief in EJ and was willing to move on immediately. Which, honestly, is understandable. But the Bills would’ve been much better off hiring a coach who was all in on developing EJ, even if it didn’t work. All that matters is your QB becoming a top 15 guy in the NFL. The Panthers pursuing a few extra wins and giving up on Bryce puts them squarely in drought era Bills territory.

I’m confused at what you’re trying to say. The Bears kept lame duck Eberflus, who has shown nothing at the NFL level, and already had a first round QB fail under his watch. If the Bears and/or Caleb flounder, he will be the first to go. Then they will be forced to bring in another coach, who may or may not be committed to the previous investment of a #1 overall pick. And ultimately, these teams NEED to hire coaches who are 100% committed to getting that investment to succeed. The Browns did this with Baker. They kept a terrible HC in Hue Jackson when they brought in Baker. They of course dumped him MID YEAR, brought in another terrible HC in Kitchens, then finally landed on Stefanski, who wanted to move on from Baker immediately. They threw away Baker’s development because the HC didn’t want him. They threw away the investment of pick #1 for the HC. The Panthers are doing the same. Young has been truly awful, but if he isn’t Canales’ guy, it’s a total waste of the investment.

Sure but there is a chance they bring in a guy who isn’t married to Caleb, or has to coach him differently or has to go backwards. They should have canned him and started over with a Coach who was all in on Caleb

This is the mistake the Bills made for decades. The QB and the coach have to be linked. If the coach doesn’t believe in the QB, he is not the right coach for the job. McDaniel saved Tua’s career when they brought him in because he believed in Tua. He was right (kinda) and Tua has been a good productive starter. This was in stark contrast to what Flores had Tua looking like. The Giants brought in Daboll and Schoen because they believed they could fix DJ. They were wrong, but they gave Jones a chance. Young has no chance. Zero. His career with the Panthers is done. And all in the pursuit of winning 3 games instead of 2. The goal of every single lost franchise should be “make my highly drafted QB at least decent.” Not win 4 games or 6 games. Because….if you get a decent QB, you will hit those numbers regardless. The Bears did this, AGAIN. They kept lame duck Eberflus, who was brought in after Fields was drafted by Nagy and subsequently fired. 3 years later, they have picked 3 times in the top 8. This is how bad franchises stay bad. Marry the QB and coach immediately or hope you hit on a random lotto ticket.

It’s simple. You only extend two of them.

The only reasonable conclusion from this data: Good NFL QB’s are hard to find Productive college QB’s in good systems have little correlation to NFL success.

He is broken. Not sure if it’s the Panthers fault or not but he is unbelievably uncomfortable under center, has no pocket presence, and has been getting clobbered. he missed a WR screen to Thielen yesterday and looked like he was close to tears. Very sad for the young man. I truly don’t think he will ever see meaningful snaps again.

What drives me crazy about the Chiefs is that Mahomes somehow plays badly against the Bengals basically all the time. i know there’s a coaching element, but his first pick was just a complete and total brain fart.

Nothing has had a worse public perception than a rip move. EVERY game there’s a rip move that gets screenshot or shown on replay and 99% of fans watching think it’s a missed call. Honestly, the NFL should do a 1 min PSA before every game about the rule.

A regular season win?

Haha that was on Worthy too

MVS has the role Gabe Davis should’ve had last year. A deep shot or two then off the field.

Do not underestimate Harbaugh,

Okay, so we have gone backwards to “yes, they haven’t suspended anyway for weed for 5+ years but they revised the policy later,” haha

He was suspended in February 2019. Its September 2024. thats 5 years and 7 months by my math.

So 5 years ago, like I just said? Check your calendar my friend. It’s almost 2025.

What?

The NFL hasn’t suspended for weed for like 5+ years.

He has made a living off that one AFCCG that Mahomes inexplicably collapsed

They also tied every single game at some point, which is league average.

Is Joe Burrow a Tee Higgins merchant?

Levis is throwing away his NFL career.

Yes. They pretty much say, “Josh Allen is incredible but he has lots of turnovers.” lots of guys on Sunday say, “you gotta live with some of the mistakes and risky passes because Josh Allen can make magic happen like that” The context of the TO machine narrative is usually pointed to why he isn’t as good as Mahomes. I think commentators are really just talking about multiple SB’s vs not but want to sound more nuanced so they bring up the TO’s. If Josh had the same amount of TO’s but had 3 SB’s, no one would ever call him a TO machine.

I’m not sure McDaniel is suited as an OC either. He’s obviously a great offensive mind, and has some great creativity. He is an undisciplined play caller. Which is why McD takes such advantage of him in games. We let them gash us on the ground and just stayed in our defensive gameplan. McDaniel would not stick to running and getting 8 yards a pop, call 2 pass plays and they would stall the drive or turn it over. The Dolphins had their chance to stay in that game and McDaniel hoisted himself on his own petard.
