Lol the Panthers best offensive player was the Bucs special teams captain last year.

i didnt even know we got him this offseason until that TD.

I'm guessing he wasn't much to write home about last year?

He's awesome on ST but wanted a bigger role on offense and he obviously wasn't going to get that in Tampa. He's always looked good when on the field tho.

Cam was way off in the first half but he came good in the second. 6/6 for 66 yards and a touchdown. I think he was just antsy and hadn't had any live fire at all for a while. I think getting hit and running around a bit was actually beneficial to him dude looked dialed in the the 2nd half.

Bills next week might be a bit of a trap game, if there's anyone out there who knows how to scheme for the Panthers and knows their defensive system and how to exploit it it'll be Buffalo's staff.

It's OK, with our defense we'll never see a 25 point lead anytime soon.

The key to victory is the elusive 26 point lead

I knew the Saints defense would be bad and the offense probably worse than last year, but yikes. This looked like a 5-11 team.

I'm pretty pissed over that game.

I will always only be a Saints fan but that poo poo has me thinking about taking a pass more or less on the season. It's several years straight of the same problems. Defense can't cover, inconsistent pressure, moronic penalties and now sprinkle in a shitload of fancy RB bits that don't do poo poo while your OL continues to decline.

In other news Duke Riley is from my home town and I went to HS with his mom. His cousins were some of my better friends growing up and I followed his entire career so far so I can't even summon up the hate for the Falcons like in the past.

gently caress it, someone just take that av, put Brooks Reed's face over Julio and give him googly eyes.

Been a fan of this team my whole life. There were a lot of bad years in there. Just especially frustrated now because the window on this team has been closing for a long-rear end time and last night showed that literally nothing has changed from the past 4-5 seasons.


Edit: Like, a close loss with some solid defense and maybe some 1st game offensive miscues would have been fine. Instead we got a defense throwing up dumb penalties everywhere, getting outplayed by a mediocre opponent and an offense and offensive line that look nothing like the powerhouse they are supposed to be.

Edit: This is probably going to be a 3-4 win team.

When asked which Pokemon he evolved into, Kamara pauses.

"Motherfucking, what's that big dragon shit? That orange motherfucker. Charizard."

The line was hosed when Strief went down. They could have probably worked around Armstead being out by providing help on that side, but they couldn't help both sides against a pretty good Vikings front.

Despite being an awful game to watch it was still somehow winnable if they could have gotten anything at all going in the red zone.

The Vikings D line is really really good and they'll make a lot of good olines look bad this year, much less a banged up one.

What, you have no faith in Chase Daniel?

Bwahahahahaha. If Brees is ever hurt, tank the season and go for the #1 pick. I'm sure a new coach would probably be thrilled with that.
