  1. I know nothing about how the writer / publisher created the article i only knew it was dated today, was the first article i saw that referenced the firing, and there were other articles that came out since that stated the same about the guy’s job status many on here, including me, worked in businesses that used analytics as a tool for probability but it really isn't hard to see the fatal flaw of using it exclusively for the NFL ..the guy came from the Eagles…tepper and fitterer drank the kool aid, add to it RAS, and here we are
  2. This came up on a feed for me today. I have not verified it https://fanrecap.com/article-706116/?utm_source=carolina-panthers&utm_medium=facebook&utm_campaign=nfl-mk&fbclid=IwAR0xqmLhpMQSKR5PHHfWlg626spsZ_UYQls9rz3wsaTNS9O_6OdD0-9c4tc_aem_AS6RCGSRdFxlpCbxxHN1pswEAf2liiLsL09zTx2q5yxzB7lQFkDi-7cUUPcAjC0L91Q In an unexpected move that’s sent ripples through the league, the Carolina Panthers are bidding farewell to Taylor Rajack, their esteemed director of football analytics. Rajack, who’s been with the team since 2019, has played a pivotal role in game planning, trend analysis, and shaping the Panthers’ approach to player research. This decision comes as a surprise to many, especially considering Rajack’s significant contributions to the team’s strategies and player selection processes, most notably in the draft selection this year. Taylor Rajack joined the Panthers’ ranks in 2019, bringing with him a fresh perspective on how data and analytics could influence football operations. Over the years, his expertise and insights into game preparation, trend analysis, and player research have become invaluable to the Panthers. Rajack’s knack for deciphering complex data and translating it into actionable strategies has made him a central figure in the team’s decision-making process. Perhaps the most compelling evidence of Rajack’s analytical prowess was how his findings led to a favorable comparison of Young to NFL legend Drew Brees. Through meticulous data analysis, Rajack demonstrated that Young’s accuracy in key areas of the field mirrored that of Brees. This comparison not only bolstered confidence in selecting Young but also showcased the profound impact analytics can have in evaluating talent. One aspect of Young’s game that sparked debate among scouts and analysts was his ability to throw effectively to the middle of the field. This is where Rajack’s expertise shone brightly. By leveraging advanced analytics, Rajack was able to alleviate concerns surrounding Young’s capability in this area. His analytical work included creating detailed heat maps and assembling statistics that highlighted Young’s precision in short-area throws and over-the-middle passes. As the Carolina Panthers and Taylor Rajack part ways, it marks the end of a notable chapter for the team. Rajack’s innovative approach to football analytics has undoubtedly left its mark, highlighting the growing significance of data in shaping the strategies and decisions of NFL teams. His contributions, especially in the selection of Bryce Young, will be remembered as a testament to how analytics can illuminate the path to drafting future stars of the sport. As the Panthers navigate this transition, the impact of Rajack’s work will continue to resonate, underscoring the indelible link between data and the intricate dance of football strategy.
  3. …and these are things a RAS score or analytics cannot measure I feel RAS is part of the puzzle but tape don’t lie…
  4. Kuddos to him for trying to improve as a human, a man, a father, a husband his sharing might help someone else
  5. He makes good points…and we all know these things if we have ever been in management Tepper isn’t my favorite person I think he wants that cultural but he picks the wrong people to grow it, and becomes frustrated when his vision doesn’t materialize and requires course correction he is a typical Myers’s Briggs ENTP personality …to a tee. he has big dreams. Big visions but when those do not materialize, he quits on that vision and moves on truthfully, I do not blame him for firing Reich. I blame him for hiring him and wanting young. He should be playing percentages vs outliers
  6. Maybe…he is happy where he is…doing what he does…for who he does it for i said the same in another thread a few weeks ago not sure he has the personality for a HC either and he may have personal considerations it is more than possible to have a long, lucrative career as a coordinator without the spotlight, aggravation and pressure of a HC not everyone is cutout for the belly of the beast NFL HCs endure
  7. Hhmmm Andy Dalton looked pretty good with the same cast against a decent Seattle team and we didn’t see him again…because…Bryce
  8. 7 years is an eternity in the nfl 3 years is the standard to turn around it seems in the nfl lions latest example…if teams know what they are doing Rhule is a ncaa coach and a really really bad hire
  9. Playoff teams invest heavily in both lines the Panthers need to do the same They have zero depth, two continually injured guards, an underperforming left tackle and an average right tackle and a one trick pony center and zero, and I mean zero, backups worth a damn …and those coming off injury guards are a year older they need to go young I would not care if every single draft pick was oline 17 games make that line a necessity for an extremely small nfl qb that they spent a fortune on over the years, they haven’t drafted a WR or TE worth a damn, Steve Smith during the Siefert years was a long time ago, so get those in free agency
  10. Dereck Brown is it offense….nope…and our number 1 pick would be on the practice squad best Brock purdy has weapons yes, but he also has guts and executes..Mr irrelevant
  11. Keep at it Like body blows boxing that’s their calling card
  12. Gotta start running that ball since start of the game, playing right into KC’s hands
  13. Well…he was blaming the sacks on Young and his lack of dropping to the right depth on setup Whether he was right or wrong, that was a conversation for himself and the coaching staff not the GM and Tepper It is called saving one’s ass
  14. Honestly. I’ve liked Canales for a month or so..the more I read, more I liked him still, performance based business …in my mind the issue with the panthers is talent evaluation and that starts with regional scouts and goes all the way up that chain and that is on Morgan’s side of the house we can say the selections ‘didn’t map the appropriate skill to the coach’s scheme’ all we want but regardless of coaching scheme, the drafting has been awful and free agents on pro personnel not much better. if they want to compete, they better fix that pretty damned quick
  15. story from Adam Schfeter continues. Last tweeted at 1045p. Eastern The Carolina Panthers are targeting Kansas City Chiefs’ vice president of football operations Brandt Tillis for a prominent front-office role in their organization that matches him up with new general manager Dan Morgan.
  16. Cold hearted ! I love it ! Dying here lol
  17. This was the argument for not pulling the trigger on a QB to begin with and when tvey did, they drafted an outlier Young must improve or he will be gone 62 sacks…id say 20 of those were on Young Too, im glad campen is gone as well…that oline was a little too comfy with status quo and there is something wrong with Ickey. He needs to get his head out of his ass or be moved on I didn't want Young but he is here one year is what he gets im very leery of needing the perfect situation for him to succeed thats never going to happen its a performance based business produce or someone will Im sure he is good to his Momma, puppies, and is a charming dinner partner but that's not what this job description is there are 51 other players whose livelihood depends in this kid and i think there should be competition brought in Not big on being given without earning /end rant
  18. lol. Offensive line coach 62 sacks will do that
