What is roughing the passer these days?

Redzone studio currently under evacuation 😂

[MU82]

Wow ... Jake Elliott!

[The Hippie Satan of Hyperbole]

Pretty good game for such a mediocre league.

Pretty good game for such a mediocre league.

Ratings are going to finally crater

[MU82]

Holy moly ... Justin Tucker hooked a FG attempt.

[PointWarrior]

Ahem

And yet, nobody here has used the obvious...

Love stinks, yeah, yeah (Love stinks)

Carolina fires Frank Reich.

MU82, you have an owner problem in Charlotte.  Good luck with that

Can't say I'm surprised. According to reports, Tepper stormed out of the locker room yesterday screaming the f-word.

Tepper will never fire himself, so that's life in the big city.

I don't feel "sorry" for any highly compensated coaches or athletes, really, but I admit I do feel a little bad for Bryce Young. He never had a chance. If nothing else, the little guy has proven he can take a hit.

Reich preferred Stroud right? Probably should have listened to him.

Reich preferred Stroud right? Probably should have listened to him.

We don't know that. I have seen reports, but none that made me believe it definitely was the case.

Wouldn't surprise me, though. And it certainly wouldn't surprise me that Tepper (and his wife) meddled.

IMHO, Stroud would be getting killed behind this line while trying to throw to receivers who can't get open. Several times during yesterday's broadcast, replays showed how Carolina's receivers simply didn't get open. And Tennessee's defense isn't exactly the '85 Bears.

Ironically (or maybe coincidentally), the Panthers' one win was over Houston ... and Young outplayed Stroud by a pretty good margin.

How many coaches are still on CAR payroll? Def Rhule and now Reich

[MU82]

One thing the Panthers don't need is an "offensive-minded" head coach. Just hire the best guy and bring in a great offensive coordinator.

For example, I've really liked what Ejiro Evero has done with a defense that has been decimated by injury and has not been helped at all by the Carolina offense. Hired away from the Broncos to be D coordinator this season, he also had been interviewed for the head-coaching job.

Is he the best out there? It's not my job to know that. It's Tepper's job, and so far his record of hires hasn't been the best.

According to The Athletic, Detroit's Ben Johnson was Tepper's first choice last year but Johnson decided (smartly) to stay in Detroit. It's hard to imagine him thinking the job is more attractive now.

Ugh.

You can't let Luke Getsy get back on the plane.

[WhiteTrash]

You can't let Luke Getsy get back on the plane.

How can he not know you're allowed to pass the ball over 10 yds?

100% chance he is the Jets' QB coach next year.

[GB Warrior]

Try Getsy in the Hague. aDOT on completions of 0.3 yards

[jesmu84]

Screen play called - drink!

[WhiteTrash]

Bears can't even drop an interception. Uhg, cost them 15 yds.

[TSmith34, Inc.]

The whole division is pretty trash right now

[Jockey]

This is like watching Giants vs. Jets.

[jesmu84]

Bad - the decision to challenge by Eberflus

Worse - he threw the red flag farther than most of Fields' passes tonight

[MU82]

Yeah ... fire everyone and draft a QB.

[forgetful]

I swear at the end of games, the Bears actively try to lose.

[jesmu84]

This game was over - and people deserved to be fired - before the 4th quarter started

[MU82]

Yes, still fire everyone and draft a QB.
