Today’s Panthers-Bucs game is crazy important, historically teams often see a bump post firing their coach and the Bucs are not good. There’s a bit of a buffer where the Panthers can win one game and still give us the first overall but they have a piss easy schedule and I don’t see any chance the Patriots win another game.
The Panthers as well are pretty committed to Bryce Young while I’ve never seen a qb shitshow as bad as the Mac/Zappe situation in NE right now.
I don’t know if we need to worry too much. Belicheck may be an all time great coach, but he may be the worst GM in the NFL. He’s just as likely to draft a guard or some crap instead of Caleb.
