BREAKING NEWS: Panthers hiring new coach
Khyber53 replied to TheSpecialJuan's topic in Carolina Panthers
Good! Hope he does great here! And if the Bill Walsh Diversity Coaching Fellow was his route to becoming a successful coach then great! The league won't survive long if we go back to the old days when there was a bottleneck to access that prevented skilled people from different backgrounds from getting the opportunity to coach. And fug Trump. -
I'd originally wanted to see a DE or LB with this pick, but if he's available and our pick at 8, I'm going to be happy with it. Big TE ... will be nearly the size of Gronk with Greg Olsen's brains... that could go a long way for us.
-
Another episode. Hope y'all are enjoying them.

There's a lot of truth to this, but I do see them as the same prototype of player. Josh just seems to be the next step along that line. Cam was a bit more physically gifted, to be honest, and I think he continued to rely on it more and more, rather than developing his passing and defense reading skill set. Josh, like you said, devoted more to developing that side of his game. That being said, if you listen to Cam breaking down tape, he's an incredibly knowledgeable QB, but I think Josh has benefited even more from mentorship from more experienced coaching. And yeah, both will eventually be HoF inductees. Just hoping Josh doesn't end up with the Marino entry... gold jacket, no rings.

No doubt and lets hope it's decades before they find another one.
-
Who knows... there may be another 6'5" 235 lb mobile QB with a cannon for an arm, with even better abilities to read and react to defenses. I thought there'd never be another step past Cam, but then Josh comes along and you see that next evolutionary step in the big, mobile QB group. Generational talents, but also just one of them per generation I guess.
-
If he ends up in New Orleans, we're going to have hell to pay. He'll spend the first year or two trying to find the next evolutionary step from Cam to Josh to... And if he does it'll be lights out in the floundering NFCSouth. There are a lot of other names on that list beyond Brady's that I'd rather see get that job, purely for the selfish reason that I'd want the Panthers to have an easier go of it.
-
They do, they really do. And he's a culture building guy that is better at talking with this generation of players than guys 20 years younger than him. He'll turn them around and into a winning team before he chooses to retire.

Ravens home uniform is great, black and purple just looks good. Logo on the helmet is one of the best in the league. Bengals home uniforms also good, still love the tiger stripes on helmet and on the shoulders and legs. Beats the hell out of Paul Brown just copying the Browns' unis and writing Bengals on the helmets. The Steelers uniforms are just iconic. Logo on only one side of the helmet, it's just historic and enduring.
-
That's an interesting wrinkle... and I can't quite shake that it could make sense. Still, I really want to see us grab LB in the first.

Panthers sign players to futures contracts
Khyber53 replied to raleigh-panther's topic in Carolina Panthers
Not a single one of these signings hurts us, or even costs us much, but it gives these guys a reason to stay in shape and keep working toward making a team. Sounds like a few guys who need to be part of a reclamation project and maybe we will find a diamond in the rough there. Sounds like some good, lower cost options for back-up O-line there. I wonder if the player from Ghana would count as a foreign investment player and allow us to keep an extra guy on the roster. That could be really handy, if I am correct about those rules. -
Dan Campbell gets emotional after Washington loss.
Khyber53 replied to staffcurtis's topic in Carolina Panthers
Amazing job of coaching he's done this season considering the massive number of injuries that team has suffered. Even with five turnovers, they put a bunch of points. Had their defense not been so decimated (including losing a starting DB with a broken arm early in the game), they might have held on to win it. The injury bug is a mean one, and it got them in the end. Not to downgrade Washington's performance, because they were outstanding, but just to say, there's no shame in Detroit. -
If you hire Coach Prime, you are handing him the keys to everything. And I mean everything. I loved the guy as a player. Loved him as a commentator. But if you thought his self-promotion made it hard to deal with him solo, then him plus his sons on the biggest national stage ever... you will lose everything you had for a middling to best coach and some totally over-hyped lesser versions of him. And you'll come out looking like the bad guy when you eventually have to cut him and them loose.
