Great point

I feel like this is 100% coaching. Every other play, there was a guy on our defense, looking like he had no effing clue where he was supposed to be or what he was supposed to do. Combine that with how many other plays where a guy was just left completely open within 15 yards of anyone. If it’s personnel, they need benched if it’s all personnel, then they need cut and pick up someone off the street that can follow directions until you have one that can follow directions properly.

Never see teams doing this anymore.

If we can’t beat the teams in our division, what good is Zac.

He's only 0-1 in the division so far as well, so plenty more losses to rack up.

1-3 outside of it so far, with that W being a piss poor effort against a dreadful Panthers team, when we actually think about it.

If they would have attempted the FG on third down all the holder would have had to do was fall on the ball which would have made it 4th down and given another attempt.

It's very rare, but why not if you're not going to attempt to get more yardage?

Is there any possibility Jake browning is a better holder than our punter?
