From Bridgewater to Newton...but...


Jeremy Igo

Yes, should Jennings sign in Carolina he will be getting an upgrade at QB, although Bridgewater should have been in the talks for rookie of the year. 

 

But more importantly, Jennings will be going from Norv Turner to Mike Shula. 

 

Last season Brandon Lafell performed at a higher level in New England while Jericcho Cotchery performed at a lower level in Carolina. So, it is far from a given that Jennings will have the same numbers here as he did in Minnesota, in fact, it is rather unlikely. 

 

Going from Norv Turner to Mike Shula is a really significant drop, more so than the upgrade he will be getting at QB.

If greg olsen and kelvin benjamin can both go for 1000 yds and at least 5 or more tds(dont know the exact number) then it would not be unlikely that he is productive in our system. The comparison to cotchery is not equivalent. Greg jennings is a two time pro bowler and unlike cotch has had more than one 1000 yd season. Cotch is a poor mans greg jennings. I know that jennings is getting old but hes saavy and knows how the game is played and has enough physical tools to come in a compete at a high level.

Jeremy being a Debbie downer again... We have enough of those on here already

 

 

 

Sometimes I see things swaying way too far to the positive and I feel the need to quell expectations a bit. 

 

 

Yes, he is an upgrade over Cotchery. But not as big an upgrade as many think.

    • Exactly.  You let him play out next season and continue to develop Thorton.  Jackson’s earned his next contract, but his age and the risk of tying up such a large portion of the payroll at one position leads me to believe that we’ll let him walk. In all likelihood, we’ll draft another CB, or two, and bring in some journeymen to fill the roster void, between now and the start of the 2027 season.  That’ll create more balance financially across the roster enabling us to invest in other areas.  
    • As far as the NFCS … I think this division will be hotly contested the next couple of years.   I am tending to pay more respect to both Atlanta and the Saints n terms of how strong they will be moving forward, than not.    I am mixed on Ryan but think they have a decent roster to start with. I don’t think he blundered hiring Stefanski. And that offense can be dangerous with a QB. Plus, defense is arrow up. No 1st round pick, WB issues will dull their effectiveness. Question is, to what degree?   I think Moore is going to be a good HC and can overcome tape that people have on Shough. They need a lot but they were playing with people. Just the way you want to see all the way to the end.    Not sure about Tampa they have Mayfield but I don’t think they can maintain their success and Bowles is not going to last much longer. They have to go through all that. Gonna be tough once it starts. Might already have started.    For us I feel pretty good about Morgan. But less so about our offense, we have some short term RB and OL issues and those things are critical given what we are working with at QB.  Overall, mixed. Like a lot of what I see but some major question marks remain.     
    • Absolutely. If we are talking about a 20 year old youngster. He's a grown-ass man, and he doesn't know what his job entails or how to do it? Maybe he will be better next year! It's the Panther way.
