Moton is the best long term answer at LT because the FO either ignores it or is too completely inept to actually address it.

He can’t beat our Little or Daley or Erving? That will be a sad thing to hear. Beating them doesn’t even mean he’s starting caliber…but at least his mistakes will be because he is a rookie.

You guys know you’re being trolled right?

Wow so the coaching staff is doing what the huddle suggested for the past three years after numerous failed (stupid) signings, injuries, and a bust second round pick? Another one to mark in the books….lol

Teddy Bridgewater had a faster release than Brees last year. That should tell you just how awful this oline was. There are only a few QBs with at least 400 attempts with a quicker time to throw than TB and in relation to the oline, none ranked worse than the Panther’s Oline. Just goes to show there’s a lot more to that ‘18th ranked’ oline…factoring in these, I’d put them closer to 25. These ‘oline wasn’t that bad’ people, well I have no clue what exactly they’re going on. Still it’s somewhat a different unit as said so yea preseason rankings and unknowns etc. But it’s reasonable to assume, given history and the content of what they’ve added to the line, there won’t be any improvement. If there is, it will be a pleasant surprise, but surprise nonetheless.

Yea I think JR chose to sell and wasn’t ‘forced’…not that he wouldn’t have been had he chose to fight it. Itd be nice is people weren’t paid off and details/stories/lawsuits would come out and some jail time would be included. I’d prefer that to forcing them out personally. It’ll taint their business and ruin him personally to a much more satisfying degree IMO. But lotta money involved for lots of people so that won’t happen. These a crimes…not things you ‘fine’ people for.

fug that, I say we keep finding FAs with injury issues and keep our oline budget in the 10-15 million altogether.

Maybe it’s just me but if we weren’t taking a QB and there was no chance of Sewell, I feel like signing BB trading down and drafting Parsons would’ve been a better plan as far as value and results. But I’m no GM.

Kind of reminds me of last year…all this pass pressure (which we’re actually middle of the road in) people want to talk about and yet only FOUR other teams allowed more average rushing yards per attempt than the Panthers. Then this forum bashes teams like the Jags who guess what…were tied with the Panthers at 27th in the league with that stat. Passing wise we didn’t do too bad…and by that I mean slightly closer to average….except interceptions and sacks. Only one team had less interceptions and again we tied another known ‘bottom dweller’ on the huddle for 31st place…the lions. Sack wise, only 7 teams had less, and compared to playoff teams our total sacks were near HALF of what’s needed. There is hella improvement to be made. Overall, we’re still kings of the bottom third of the NFL, which isn’t too bad considering, but back to your point, if the odds are a team will get a first simply by running the ball, especially with zero fear of turning it over should they pass, that will always just cripple a team.

Yes, we all know compliments and supportive words are what people mean when they say they have ‘mixed feelings’.

Do you really need it if you just have everyone sign a waiver while sober?

actually guys the best contract value for 2021 will be our best player pick in 2022 or maybe even 2023 that will help to win games and make several pro bowls on his rookie season, I mean we are paying him zero dollars this year and maybe next, can’t beat that

Uh, yea, Chinn represents draft value, not actual contract value lol dumb Hurney wouldn’t know value if it nailed him in the ballsack so we have limited options, not sure I even know who to give that to outside rookie deals. Have to consider time too. Giving one hit wonder, ‘it finally clicks in my contract year1!’ guys long ass contracts are bad value. Hello again Hurney. Also hindsight, the only performance measuring value we have is past year’s play. So in my humble opinion, I’ll go with Reddick. Only 1 year, 6 million (8 with incentives) came in with 12.5 sacks. Sure there are some question marks but I don’t think anyone would turn this down.

Hurney already gave Olsen crybaby 20 mil sunset money to sit on the bench the minute he got rehired…now no one can wear his # lol

KK’s extension and contract in general was worse than TBs. Paradis wasn’t great depending on this year it could be just ok. Shaq over BB was dum and just asinine in general. Soon as all these clear we should be good.

Because bitching about bitching about bitching adds even more.

Will you dumbfugers stop bitching about Covid every chance you get? There is more to life get your shot and stfu, learn to be more interesting thnx

where did he not line up?

As some who has experienced a share of stadiums, I’d say this is about right. There are only a few that are worse than BOA. Definitely needs an upgrade. We don’t have a rich history like the Packers so no need to pretend we do like JR did and keep things in the dinosaur age. And I think every gets the hint after 20 years of disturbed. And these rankings also take into account the fans…which will never change unless the Panthers have some sort of sustained success. The environment in BOA when we do make it in playoffs is actually pretty decent…but just as bipolar is the Panthers success, the fans are as well. Just no momentum.

to some the Panthers can do no wrong and JR was the best owner/founder ever - a legend in reality this is mediocrity at its finest and if JR didn’t have $ he’d be behind bars

I think this is a sign of cap strapped teams. You sign talent and what could be vs. production. Injury prone or bad teams. You take the risk vs. sign a below average but consistent player. If it works out, one less hole next year, where as you’ll still have a whole with a JAG. I’m fine with that but once we have a healthy cap I really want to see some magic in FA. The only time I have ever seen that since inception was with Gettle in 2015 (in a different way).

Isn’t obvious? I didn’t watch the video but just from common sense, let’s compare then to now: Will go from arguably the worst oline in the NFL (for several years) to, as of now, the 18th ranked. I always poo on our oline because it’s garbage but the Jets are otherworldly godawful. Go watch some Jets games from last year. His RBs avg yards: 2020 (37 year old HB) 3.5, 2019 (played 3/4 of season) 4.0, 2018 4.3-4.8. I’m sure I don’t have to explain why McCaffrey is better than 4 rotating washed up HBs. His #1 receivers: 2020/2019 Crowder a decent #2 but has never cracked 900 yards in 6 years, 2018 Anderson, never cracked 800 yards. Anderson couldn’t crack 1k until he came here. And aside from 2017, looked to be regressing with the Jets. Essentially, given Anderson is a wash, I’m sure I don’t have to explain why DJ Moore is better than Crowder. Gase as OC/QB coach/HC: Made the playoffs one time and lost. Overall HC record? 32-48 (.400). Brady/Rhule unknown but that bar is on the ground. But I’d put money Sean Ryan is better than Gase. There is a reason why basically any analysis out there on Darnold predicts improvement. Pretty much a duh. Question isn’t improvement, it’s will it be enough? He’ll look better but will he be a winner. But the reasons for improvement are painfully obvious even to the most casual fan (as indicated by literally everyone who talks about the subject). I’ll root for him but improvement and good enough are completely separate topics.

Winning seasons since 1995: Jets: 11 Panthers: 7 Jaguars: 8 Panthers are actually just a few (horrific) teams away from being dead last in this category.

Winning seasons since 1995: Lions: 7 Panthers: 7

I think that unless Darnold is absolutely garbage, he will be here next year as well. 8-9, 9-8 I think is that area, with a couple game winning drives, in which case I would be satisfied. Then next year it’s playoffs or move on IMO. And if no playoffs, probably only give Rhule one more year as well, 3 years is plenty to see if he’s capable. Kelly and Harbaugh both almost went all the way with shitty teams who needed serious rebuilding in only 1 season. Granted their stints did not last long at all. I think at that point a big move will be made for a QB be it draft or trade. While the Panthers didn’t give up too much to Sam what they are giving him is their time, and that’s worth a lot. At some point Rhule is basically betting his future and success outside of drafting and developing a future franchise QB which is why I think a big move will be made is Sam busts. It’ll be time to get serious.
