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.

      Cam had the advantage of having a very strong supporting cast his first 2 seasons. Things definitely worsened later on. But those first couple of years can kill a QB. Some never truly recover. If they do recover it takes years, and usually with another team. Trying to learn to be an NFL QB with TEs and WRs that are trying to learn too is a recipe for disaster. Imagine if Cam's rookie season was that 2014 offensive squad. Changes everything! I said it when they moved up in 2023. This team wasn't ready for a rookie QB yet. Anyone that thinks Stroud would have been a lot better is delusional. The correct formula is to build a strong team and then you go get your rookie QB. Not the other way around. BY is going into his third season and we're still trying to put a respectable group of WRs and TEs around him. I think they have the right personnel now. Unfortunately they haven't developed into actual NFL players yet.  This season we should expect consistency and aggressiveness from BY. Mostly for his development but also to DEVELOP his young cast.

      It is goofy how some people hate Bryce so much that they're flat out lying to try and remain entitled to their pessimism. It's insanity. Most fans are realists and eagerly awaiting the season to see if we get pre- or post-benching Bryce to start the season and how much he is able to do with some young and developing weapons. Many of us understand that these young guys are going to have growing pains on the job as well as the new defense, but the fans with all of the excuses for why Bryce can't be successful are pounding the no excuses drum. Personally, I'd prefer the Keep Pounding drum.
