WFNZ update

I'd be happy with an hour of silence instead of listening to Marc James. I hope they shift Garcia to the later time slot.

Back to the OP, good timing for Marc to leave. With all the guest fill-ins upcoming we will get a lot of Panther info from different perspectives. Hopefully we'll get a Jordan Gross fill-in one day.

Not sure what Gary Williams is doing these days but he was solid on the morning show. I would not mind

 

I think he's working for the Golf Channel. WFNZ would probably be a step back from that.

 

I just want someone who is passionate about sports in general and local sports specifically. Packer didn't seem all that interested in sports as a whole. Marc and Taylor were a little too interested in their own teams. I really enjoy the Mac Attack, if they could find that sort of dedication to local sports and self deprecation I'd be happy.

 

A thing I found irritating about the Drive was callers couldn't rip the hosts without getting cut off and lectured on why they were right. When the Panthers started winning and the fans wanted them to eat crow the response was "you guys are just being fans, no one would believe in this team". Sometimes letting a fan rip you or even admit you were wrong goes a long way. No one wants to listen to someone promote themselves for 5 hours a day.

That's an idea. I think Frank would be great in the later time slot. I have always enjoyed his show and he's a nice guy to boot.

That is one thing the morning show and Garcia is good at. They don't seem to take themselves too seriously and can see another point of view. I know some folks hate those shows but I think both were better than the afternoon one.

    • Wide Receiver: Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers – 85.3 One of the more shocking developments of the 2025 NFL season has been the Carolina Panthers’ ascension to the top of the NFC South, which they achieved with Sunday’s win over the Buccaneers. Perhaps nobody has made a bigger difference than former eighth overall pick Tetairoa McMillan, who continued to be a steady presence in the Panthers’ offense. McMillan caught six passes for 73 yards and a touchdown in the win Tight End: Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers – 91.1 Evans only saw the field for 16 snaps, but he was efficient in his limited playing time. He caught all three of his targets for 23 yards on just six receiving snaps while also grading well in pass protection (72.2 grade) and as a run-blocker (68.4) Edge Defender: Nic Scourton, Carolina Panthers – 77.9 The former second-rounder out of Texas A&M has been a force along the Panthers’ defensive line, and he was a key contributor in Carolina’s huge win over the Buccaneers. Scourton recorded two stops as a run-defender and added another while in coverage. Scourton also tallied his sixth sack of the year while contributing another pressure to the mix Safety: Lathan Ransom, Carolina Panthers – 75.7 Another Carolina Panther on this week’s list, Ransom has typically been stronger in run defense — he carries an 85.2 grade in that field on the season. But Sunday against the Buccaneers was his best day in coverage. Ransom intercepted his only target, which wound up being the game-winner that put the Panthers in the driver’s seat in the NFC South
