Mr. Scot

Newton plays a more important position than McCaffrey and when was the last time he won a game with us? Hadn't he lost something like 11 or 12 straight? Wins and losses are not an individual player stat.

Akers would make sense.

He doesn't watch the games. I'm not even sure he's actually a Panther fan so much as just a pathetic troll.

Damn

Dude, that probably deserves its own thread.

Wow. Another OT game?

What "crusade" was there against Sirianni? He had some kinda goofy moments early on (so did Campbell) but he's doing well now.

Aaron Wilson chronicles who works out where every week. I hadn't seen a single workout or visit attributed to us all season, up to now.

I'm not that big a masochist.

Agreed. From here on out, it's his (and Morgan's) show.

There was an article a while back about how the "kick the can" approach was becoming a more prominent thing. Basically, people saw the Saints getting away with it and said "hey, we can do that too".

Pretty sure Fitterer and Wilks are gonna be collaborative...basically like a normal head coach-GM works rather than the Rhule "full power" bullsh-t.

"Things David Tepper probably shouldn't have said" is potentially a long list.

Pretty much all the "connected" folks say it's not happening. We've also got an interim coach involved in a lawsuit related to tanking, so anything that might be seen as undermining him could be... problematic.

We haven't got anybody on staff who came from the Jets that I can think of. You might be thinking of Terry Bradway. He's not on staff here. He and Fitterer are friends. I do find myself wondering if this affects Pat Stewart at all. Stewart came here prior to Fitterer and Morgan because he and Rhule had worked together before. I don't think it'll mean anything, but hey...

Don't see any fire sale happening.

I mean, asking a coach who's part of a lawsuit related to a coach being told to tank if he'll agree to tank...well, seems like a bad idea

Pretty much. I have a positive opinion of him, but it's fair to point out that we don't really know yet how good he'll be. And given where we are on the calendar, it's gonna be hard to judge much of anything till the offseason.

Spent a lot of time criticizing myself to throw people off, but you didn't fall for it.

Ya got me. I've been posting on Panthers fan forums since before I bought the team because I knew this day would come.

Could be worse. Imagine if my whole argument was based on guilt by association. Now that would be weak sauce.

What's his best move but I can't name his draft picks? Yeah, sure The roster that's been built here by Fitterer and Morgan, even with Rhule's influence hanging over him, looks decent overall except for the quarterback spot. The OL definitely looks improved, and that after only a single offseason. Hell, throw in that we've actually gotten returns for guys like Greg Little, Dennis Daley and Robbie Anderson. Meanwhile, the crux of your argument is basically "he worked for Rhule". So did a lot of guys, James Campen for example. If you want to talk about weak arguments, that's one of the worst.

You'd be correct. Morgan's experience is as a pro personnel guy. Fitterer has dabbled in it but it's not his thing. Hence why I think they make a good combo.
