We did what we were supposed to do against a 1-11 team.
Still giving up too many rushing yards

What?! Not sure what game you were watching. Bryce Young couldn't come close to his receivers. He finished the game with a 48.0 passer rating. Carr had a very respectable 88.5 rating. They each had one turnover. Young was sacked four times. Carr once. Young was 13 for 36 (36.1%) passing. Carr was 18 for 26 (69.2%). Carr had two passing TD's. Young had zero. Not only was Young outplayed by Carr, but he was outplayed by a huge margin. Not even close. Several of the few Panthers' fans in attendance were booing Young in the 4th quarter.

Sounds like Carmichael's decision of not activating Graham earlier is becoming an issue.

Like a hearty Pat on the head of a masochistic fan. Buy more merch. We have all the right people in the building. Just keep doing what you’re doing.

Love DD! Even though he's getting a bit long in the tooth, he's still got the range and instincts to negate his lack of speed. I'm wondering how much longer he's going to stay in NOLA.

Was this really a PC decision not to play Jimmy, or was it ultimately DA's call? I haven't seen anything to indicate either.

The offensive coordinator should always have the call on what players are executing his offense if they are medically available and on the 53 man roster (as has been Graham). At least from what I have always gathered. I cannot imagine a scenario where the de facto defensive coordinator (Dennis Allen) would make that call.
