Chargers had the #1 defense and #1 offense one year and missed the playoffs.

You know why? Because they had a historically bad special teams.

Great point there. I forgot how good the chargers were statistically that year and guess who their defensive coordinator was?

I remember that.

Makes you wonder how different our record last year might have been with better special teams.

Special teams ace... remember Gettleman & Rivera said we were changing our ST personnel approach?

so we got Ginn and this guy so far. Ginn can return and this other guy can possibly chase down an opponent if he gets past our initial head hunters?

where oh where is Jordan Senn? he was ST captain and we just let him disappear.

I know Ginn's price tag was too much and understand why we didn't match 'zona's offer and it was smart not to, because we get him back at fair value and he's got some good history and repoire with us.

speed is great, it is highly coveted and I want as much speed as we can get, I just can't stand having so many niche players that are too highly specialized.

not to mention that this guy is getting way more $ than we should be offering special team aces who are supposed to be track stars after coming off Achilles injuries.

highly questionable move Getts, I need to know more about the plans for this guy before I feel good about the transaction.

We need specialized players so our starters don't get hurt on special teams. Our special teams cost us one game against the Vikings and hurt us plenty of others to a lesser extent. I just hope we have special team players who can contribute as a successful back up when called.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
