Around the NFL Week 2

Does anyone else hate their stupid tush push as much as I do? It just doesn’t feel like football. Rather fitting that a team I hate is the culprit.

Yes. I hate it almost as much as I hate the new kickoff rules.

Ye olde "Prevent Defense". You know, the one that prevents the team on defense from winning. Valid criticism IMO.Cousins shredded the Eagles on the final drive with 0 timeouts. Literally made it look easy. Good stuff.

Tush push is the worst play to be seen on an NFL field since...... well fucking nothing. It's cheap, gross and stupid like the city of Philadelphia and the lot of their fans. It should be banned.

Kickoff sucks too but I get it. Still sucks.

Meanwhile in Carolina, Bryce Young is being benched in favor of Andy Dalton

They kinda did what the Bears are doing with Caleb Williams right now. Drafted him #1, and didn't have a decent OL in place and just threw him out to start. It's a recipe for disaster. Now the Panthers shipped all that talent out, wasted all those draft picks, only to have the guy bench after game 2 of his second season. The guy is done for. I doubt he recovers. THe Panthers will be set back 4-5 years easily.

Getting dangerously close to Snyder level with fan disapproval.

I feel that you could have written this: "They kinda did what the Commanders are doing with Jaden Daniels right now. Drafted him #2, and didn't have a decent OL in place and just threw him out to start". Isn't that the way of the NFL for QB's drafted at the top of the draft?

The larger problem for Carolina is that they traded up to #1 to get a QB and then drafted the wrong one! In my mind, there are minimum height, weight, and arm strength requirements for a QB to even be considered as a draft pick. He does not meet any of those minimums IMO. And my personal height and weight minimums keep going up every couple of years as the defensive players keep getting taller and stronger.

The largest problem of all for the Panthers is that they have a meddling nincompoop owner who forces the football side to do stupid things. That can only change with new ownership.

I agree but the OL has been decent i think JD5 play and the RBs have help to this point mask the OL's short comings

I also think the buzz out of CHI is to try to put some blame on the OL to take some heat off CW18; but CW18 just quit honestly has not been good (only been two games so a ways to go )

The media likes to build these guys up then they LOVE to tear them down the second they are not the shiniest nickel in the bunch

It's all about the clicks; therefore, instant analysis. It's very unfair to the players.

Bingo. The coaches wanted to draft CJ Stroud and Tepper wanted Bryce Young.

Jayden Daniels > Caleb Williams > Bryce Young
