LoL... religion

Cutting Steve Smith was not a fail. It was a great move that saved nearly $35m in cap space from 2014-16.

The handling of the situation was a massive fail. Cap ramifications made it understandable and even reasonable but how the organization did it was not tasteful to say the least...I don't think players are to fond of treatment like that, it's a business but their is a certain level of expected professionalism that goes with being a NFL GM.

WTF is yiour point?  Your problem is you try to attack the poster and not the content of the post.

 

Try shopping with no money in your wallet.  I am critical of Cam--yes, if you understand what critical means--my words were "We don't know what we have in Cam..."  I said that many times in many posts.  His stats have regressed.  Having a bad OL (not all 4 years) and a weaker WR corps does not make you a great QB if your stats suck.  It means that it is hard to tell how he would be with talent around him.  However, all QBs depend on talent.  No contradiction here, WOW, unless you spin it so you can argue against it.  The poor supporting cast is on Hurney--and the reason we do not know how good Cam is cannot fall on Gettlemen because he had no money.  If you think, "Well, he shudda drafted a T."  Then go back and see how the players are doing who were there when we drafted. 

 

In baseball, the pitcher is measured on wins and losses.  They do not say," he is 4-12, but his team is not hitting well when he pitches and they make errors." Why is that?  Because all QBs have to overcome adversity on every team in every game.  Cream rises.  Cam is sinking.

 

No other position in team sports determines the outcome of the game more than the NFL QB.  Maybe the variables are adversely impacting Cam.  How many games has he won in a shootout?  As much as his OL and WRs may be hurting him, his defense last year helped him.  He has not shown the ability to take over and run the table.  Currently, he is in the bottom 20% right now and wants to be paid big bucks. 

 

If Cam has to have stud OL and elite WRs around him to be good, is he elite?

 

 

In baseball they do give concession to pitchers who don't get any run support and they do have stats that track the individual numbers for pitchers. So you would be wrong..

 

I'll ask you then what QB in NFL history has succeeded or overcome

 

1. Bad Oline

 

2. No consistent run game

 

3. Bad play calling

 

4. Lack of pass catching weapons 

 

5. Breakdowns by the Defense and Special teams.

 

And I'm saying all of these in a season..  Not just 1-2-3 or 4 but all 5 issues. Who has risen to the top of this situation???

 

Answer this question.

 

 

 

Of the elite QB who doesn't have at least 1 of those things??? 

 

Which one of the elite QB's don't have either a bevy of pass catchers or a good oline??

All elite QBs have solid OLs.

Most have a matchup nightmare to throw to.....

To OP

 

You should have had a C choice, allowing more time.

 

GMan has not been good this year at all. However, he was last year. So it remains to be seen.

 

And he's at least appeared competent in dealing with the cap, regardless of how his free agent moves played out this year.

 

Rivera's, been historically shaky as an NFL head coach every year, including his fluke/banner year of 2013 where he started off poorly, showing no balls.

Putting words in my mouth.

I never said I wanted to sign him long term, only that renting him made no sense unless it was for a Super Bowl run. But no, we did not save anything by renting him. We won't be paying him after this year, but we also won't have the player.

As for your "Lol, find another team", thanks for validating my judgement and intellligence. Were you and I in agreement on just about anything in life, I would begin to have my doubts.

saved signing bonus money.

Dave obviously felt the Panthers were going to lean on the defense to remain competitive.

Smart man.

Save the insults for somebody that gives a damn.

If what Jeremy is saying is true, and Dave is approving guys being let go for doing their jobs and speaking the truth (Jason & Avant), maybe its time for him to go too

 

Dave letting go of irrelevant players in a terrible season that have nothing to do with our future?!? OH NO we has to fire him

 

 

 

Give me a break

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By JawnyBlaze · Posted

      It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed.

      I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
