Sportsonearth - Panthers have 2nd ranked front 7


Recommended Posts

Rankings are great for fans and the like. To me I could care less. Sure it's nice when your team/player is ranked highly. But at the end of the day, it means very little.

That said. We have a really good front 7. Definitely one of the best in the league. I can live with that.

Also, if Decoud and Cason, who are both still young, can return to previous levels. And Harper and White can play as well as expected. We should have one hellofa Defense again.

Not really, but feel free to think that. Steve Smith should still be here, and he's not because of the drama Gettleman caused. Gross would still be here if he hadn't pissed him off when he first got here. Lafell was gone, but you know poo was getting ugly when they made one last attempt to sign him back. They wanted Ginn back and refused to pay him, not that I blame him for that one. But he dropped the ball on not signing Nicks.

KB, Nicks, and 89 would put fear in defenses, you can't convince me otherwise. No need to cry over spilled milk tho, its done with. Just don't act like the decisions he's made this offseason were 100% the right thing to do. Different GMs would have handled things differently. Let's not forget that Hardy still doesn't have a contract, and if he ends up somewhere else next season then that will turn out to be a horrendous decision.

I love the fact that he went out and got his QB a guy who I believe will be a superstar in this league. I don't blame him for the LT position, because there really isn't anything he can do. That damage was done the moment he asked his Probowl LT to take a pay cut.

But his hands weren't tied, he made the decisions he thought were best for the team. Thats his job and time will tell if he made the right choices. But other roads could have been taken, he took his and we will see where it leads.

mislead much?

    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
    • You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
