Per J.Jones on twitter..."hearing rumors that Rice suspension will only be two games". If this is true then maybe Hardy slides through with only one or two games also....being that Rice beat his now wife to the ground and knocked her out and it appears hardy was fighting with a coked up crazy woman without much injury. If these rumors are true , then he catches a big break and if he stays out of trouble...may get another chance..get rid of the money shark agent and straighten up the act.

CONFIRMED: TWO GAMES FOR RICE

D.G. "appears the NFL will allow the entire process to play out before any action taken"...jury trial takes a while and we may have him all season

You really want to keep him after you add up everything he has had happen and what we know about him being a little off?

 

I love the player Hardy is. He is easy to root for on the football field. But let's not kid ourselves he may not be guilty of what he was convicted of but he isn't 100% innocent and its only a matter of time before there is something else.

One of the DE's are gonna be gone next year..and it may be him if Charles restructures....if not then a contract with conduct provisions would be the only way...if JR hasn't already sealed his fate that is.

We both agree there one of the two will be gone. But Big Money has shown he is the better DE (In my opinion) without the drama. Again as a player and "The Kraken" he is very easy to root for. I just think letting him walk and replacing him with Elay may be the best way to go about things.... and I think it's been G-spot's plan since the draft.

All hail this man. The man which has never done anything wrong or been in the wrong place at the wrong time. You're a saint and my hero.

Sarcasm intended.

If Rice only gets two then Hardy's should be less IMHO. I still want him against the Bucs in the opener as we all do, and honestly feel they should wait til after the JURY verdict is read to suspend (or not). Crosses fingers.

obviously we will probably never know what happened that night, but I'm a huge advocate against domestic violence. unless she had a gun pointed to his head, there is no reason to lay hands on your partner. 

 

then again we love Hardy's crazy passion on the field, might not be entirely his fault he can't flip the switch when he's off it

 

unless Hardy shows serious remorse or a serious attitude towards cleaning up his off field antics I'm fine with letting him go

Ray Rice and Hardy's assaults are apples and oranges. I think the commish should allow the justice system to work and punish hardy after a jury trial. If he does before then its either too much punishment or not enough depending on how it plays out. Also Rice should have been hit harder with the video evidence.

Except Rice AND his wife were arrested. Stop defending the man just because he's a panther, it's fuging disgusting. Have some damn morals, it's just a damn football team.

Hardy is definitely psycho enough to use this crappy offseason as motivation for a record breaking year. We all agree he is a Peppers clone, but Peppers didn't have any screws loose. A genuinely pissed off Kraken is going to be interesting to see.

Yes that is the correct view point on this situation. Super Star athlete so we should ignore red flags and sweep them under the rug of generalized statements of nobodies perfect...

 

Because well... blind fandom.

Commissioner Roger Goodell is notoriously heavy-handed when doling out suspensions and fines. The list for violators of the NFL Drug Policy for this year alone is staggering. But he has yet to determine the fate of Ray Rice, who received pre-trial intervention counseling and avoided sentencing.
 
Hardy, however, was convicted and therefore is expected to miss at least four games, according to the NFL's personal conduct policy (via ESPN):
 
"'Persons who fail to live up to (the NFL's) standard of conduct are guilty of conduct detrimental and subject to discipline, even where the conduct itself does not result in conviction of a crime.' Among the listed 'circumstances' in which Goodell can impose discipline is 'domestic violence and other forms of partner abuse.'"
 
I wouldn't count on it being less.

Many fans on both sides of this whole thing have made themselves look absolutely ridiculous.

 

Either they are on a high horse, and declaring his career here over after two misdemeanors, or they are bashing the woman. All in all it's up to Hardy what happens for him in Carolina from this point forward. All these fans who think they personally know JR cannot predict the future.

 

As for a suspension, it's all speculation, nobody knows for sure how many games he would get, if any at all. It's still in the legal process.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.

      If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
