USA Today: Five reasons to believe in the Carolina Panthers


GRWatcher

Recommended Posts

5. The wisdom gained last season: In 2013, the Panthers started terribly before getting their act together and winning the NFC South. They don’t have to go through the struggle again. They are an older and wiser team that understands how to get through the rigors of an NFL season.

I really hate the faith put in Ron Rivera. People think he changed his philosophy or something which frankly isn't true. Someone just showed him some relative value chart of going for it on 4th, or going for TDs deep in opposing territories, etc. These things aren't daring or innovative; they're logical. 

 

And even if he's changed on 3-4 plays a game, he's still letting shula call the most horseshit offense in the NFL for the rest of them. 

 

I hope they implode this year and they bring in Gus Malzahn.

The Panthers regressed offensively pretty much across the board in 2013 but i guess media narratives are more convincing than you know stats and things like that

I bet you're a lot of fun. We're all here getting excited for a new season and you just want to rain on everyone's parade. Lighten up Francis.

Wow.  Some fan you are. 

 

"I hope my team sucks so they'll bring in the latest college coach flavor of the month!!!"

 

Fans like you are an embarrassment.  Not to mention you're being dumb as hell because Richardson wouldn't even allow Malzahn to be considered even if we had a HC vacancy.  If we wouldn't look at a much more proven college HC in Jim Harbaugh, we certainly wouldn't look at Guz Malazhn and his crazy ass wife.

I will disagree on coach Rivera, him and McDermott put together one hell of a defense, but as far as Shula goes, I agree he is trash!!! I would love to see what are offense could be with a more innovative mind calling the plays

    • I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
