Dave Gettleman?

So this was the guy who we were praising all offseason?

 

The guy is the reason we have regressed as a team.

 

#1 He cuts our best freaking player on offense and got nothing in return for him. Nothing!

#2 Our 2 vet lineman retires and what does he do to replace them? Nothing!

#3 We lose Ginn/Lafell 2 young WR's. What does he do add 2 old aging vets? So why did we cut Smitty?

#4 Greg Hardy nuff said.

 

It seems like cutting Steve Smith was a personal agenda from Gettleman. He thought Smitty was a me first player, so he cut him.

 

Again why cut a aging star WR Smitty? To only replace him with 2 aging average WR's?

 

 

 

Plain and simple Gettleman didn't have a plan for this season. This was basically his rebuilding year.

 

 

I still believe in this team, but we are blaming the wrong people, this is all Gettleman's fault.

He did have a plan but there's a big philosophy difference that he has than previous GMs that created the current product.  

 

I understand his draft and FA style but you have to prioritize somewhat.  You can't just go grab whoever you think is the best football player regardless of position.  He needs to balance that out a bit because he just seems stubborn and convinced certain things will work themselves out.  Chandler, Bell, and Foucault/Norwell are our active tackles right now.  Like wtf.

    • not sure if any of this is news, but a good summary of our situation heading into training camp.  It's sure gonna be good getting Derrick back. After missing virtually all of the 2024 season, Panthers defensive tackle Derrick Brown is aiming for a full return to the field during training camp later this summer, per Joseph Person of The Athletic. Brown tore his meniscus in Week 1 and underwent season-ending surgery that has kept him limited through spring practices, though he did participate in “walk-throughs and light side work” during mandatory minicamp, according to Person. Brown originally stated a desire to be ready for the 2025 regular season, but his timeline appears to have moved up. Brown’s injury was particularly disappointing after a career-best 2023 season. He led all defensive linemen with 103 total tackles and was named to his first Pro Bowl, earning him a four-year, $96MM extension from the Panthers in April 2024. While he has never been a prolific pass rusher, Brown’s size and power has consistently commanded double-teams and created opportunities for his teammates. His impact was evident last season, as Carolina’s run defense ranked dead-last in his absence. The Panthers spent significant resources this offseason on defensive line depth, which should allow them to manage Brown’s usage more carefully coming off a major injury. He played a whopping 940 defensive snaps in 2023 (89% of the team’s total) and was on the field for almost every play before his injury last year. With new teammates Tershawn Wharton, Bobby Brown III, and Cam Jackson ready to share the load, Derrick Brown can take a lower snap share to stay fresh and healthy for the entire season.

    • Yeah it's kind of like they don't want him on the team anymore for some reason
