Accelerated Maturation for Hardy

LOL hyperboil much? None of us know the facts of the domestic and really that's the only serious charge he has had. I'm willing to bet that by TC this is all forgotten.

I don't know any people worth knowing that has a domestic abuse charge. You?

Maybe it's just me, but I don't see this as a big deal. You can get charged with domestic violence quite easily nowadays. What if the two were fighting (arguing) in public, and someone called the cops? Once they are called, someone has to go to jail. I know I could've been charged quite a few times myself, it's a tactic the cops use to defuse a situation. We have zero information as to what was actually going on, yet y'all are assuming the worst. I remember being that age, I remember spending a night in jail, (not for DV) but I grew up. I think GH will too. I'm not speculating, but I will give him the benefit of the doubt, until more information becomes available.

I am reserving judgement until the facts come out on why he was arrested.

 

However, I suspect JR will have a sit down with Hardy after this and tell him it's his last chance.  I don't agree with everything JR has done, but he seems to have little tolerance for stuff like this and I greatly respect that.

I guess I am in the minority but I believe:

1) He will not get that much punishment - community service and a 1 game suspension

2) His stock will not diminish

3) He will sign a massive contract somewhere besides Carolina (which would have been the case anyway)

Do you really believe this?

I've seen it happen with a buddy and his wife. They were screaming at each other in the yard, (obviously not sterling behavior) neighbors called the cops, and he spent the night in jail. This is the best possible scenario, of course it gets worse from there. I'm just pointing out, it might not be as bad as others are saying. I hope for his sake that's all it was.

I can vouch for this. Ex wife faked an injury to have me arrested for domestic violence out of spite and I had to go through hell to get my name cleared. Guilty until proven innocent is how it works. It's still on my record as being charged. The only way to know the truth is to read the trail transcripts. I'm not making light of domestic violence, just my experience in that situation.

Edit: corrected the charge. It was for domestic violence not assault. Had to look through my shyte to find the papers. Tried to forget the hell I went through so forgive me if I got the charge wrong.

    • Good post.  Definitely appeared to me as it was based on past performance and I was ok with that. His tone seemed to be bullish as well but the team ended up at 28 as a starting point. I personally don’t think they finish here but in my mind this is the right realm for preseason rankings.  I think the team has a lot to prove.  How fast can the rookies get up to speed, can the 2nd year players make the jump (coaching, player development), can DB come back to form from the injury, etc…    
    • If you are an athlete or former athlete (myself?  Cornhole 2021-present; Disc Golf 2013-got a mega blister and had to retire; speed walking--every black Friday at Walmart 2003-2009) you know what it is to lose confidence.  Self-inflicted or not (in my view, a lot of 2023 was coaching and a lot of 2024 was confidence), he has confidence now. How fragile is it?  I think the light is on, the game slowed down, and he is ready to do his thing.  He seems to be "mobile in the pocket" instead of "running scared."   Last year, there were times when AT was out, Johnson gone, and all he really had was XL and Coker--a raw rookie with upside and an UDFA rookie.  TE was rarely a viable option. It reminded me of Benjamin and Funchess.   Moore had to step up.  This season, Bryce has weapons.  I expect XL to improve.  I expect TMac to help tremendously, and I think Coker will be solid.  Renfrow?  Horn?  bonuses.    
    • His points are valid.  However, it seems a bit based on past performance and fails to take into consideration trends and conditions that might suggest growth in 2025.   For one, he breaks the team down by position and ranks them separately.  I guess that is a fair way to do it, but they are dependent upon each other. Last year, our DL sucked.  That impacts the rest of the defense.  With no internal pressure, the QBs simply step up to avoid the Edge rush.  I would have suggested that the internal DL is now featuring pass rushers and large people who can collapse the pocket.  Secondly, the LBs were not protected very well in 2024.  It is hard to see the holes and step up when a guard is in your earhole a second after the snap.  Finally, the defensive backs will be forced to make fewer tackles and they will be better in pass protection with a new and improved DL.    Canales made an interesting comment the other day, and I (from the outside looking in) feel the same way:  (paraphrasing) "I have never seen a better group of rookies."   I think the biggest concern is the learning curve.  How long before these rookies are ready?   I am bullish on this team.  I think they win 3 of their first 4 and get confident.  The get the fans behind them.  From there, they win 6 of the remaining 13.  If they stay injury free, they have an outside shot at the NFC south.
