Voth interviews Gettleman


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

Bill Voth also asked Gettleman about Josh Norman

Gettleman won’t talk about contracts, but would he admit Norman’s talent could tempt him to make a somewhat sizable investment in the defensive backfield?

“I’m not going there.”

“He made a lot of progress,” Gettleman said. “Like any other young player, there’s still room to grow. You’ve got to see how he continues to ascend.”

And thus begins the "Gettleman is gonna leave us for a bigger market" panics.

Because his path took longer than most, Gettleman doesn’t spend time worried about a falling ax. Whether he continues to build a winner, or if it all goes wrong, this is the 64-year-old’s last job. Not surprisingly, though, he won’t reveal details of his agreement with owner Jerry Richardson.

I'm too new to the site to get all the Joe Person hate... I get that he's not one to provide breaking news, LOL.

But perhaps worse is David Newton who seemed today to copy Bill Voth's interview with Gettleman without providing any attribution to Voth.  Lazy is one thing, but presenting another reporters work as your own is something totally worse.

Here's Voth's piece:

Here's David Newton's

Lol there's still a bit more to it than that, but yeah, that was a good thread.

He's notorious for "breaking" news that someone had already broke hours, or sometimes even days before.

IIRC there was one offseason, can't remember which, where there was quite a bit of rumors swirling around the Panthers... and everyone was getting news from other random twitter users... and not a single tweet about the Panthers from Joe.  Turned out the son of a bitch was on vacation and was instead tweeting about hot it was at the beach he was at and how good the strawberry daiquiri was he just drank or some poo.  Then he finally gets back with the program and starts retweeting all the same poo that several other people knew long ahead of time and were already having in-depth discussions about.

He's also a huge mouth breather, and seems like he's out of breath in most of his interviews... not to mention asks some of the stupidest fuging questions out of anybody at press conferences.  The player can have literally just said "I don't have anything to say on that topic" two or three times in a row and Joe will still proceed to ask them the same question.  Never fails.

That sort of sums it up I guess.

when ravensinsider is breaking panthers news and joe person's twitter looks like the ss atlantus, I must question how easy it is to get a job at the observer. The qualifications must be a pencil and three known words in the English language.

Only if those three words are "I'm completely worthless."

    • Baker was traded before he played his 5th year.  RGIII was cut before playing his 5th year. So it is rare but it happens. 
    • Time to hit 4000 yards and 30 TDs (including rushing). I don't care about INTs anymore. That's a big part of the problem. He plays uber conservative until the game is on the line. Playing not to lose, instead of playing to win. Time to let it friggin rip from the get. The team can win with a pick or 2 if he has 3-4 TDs. Stop playing scared.  But to be fair, his WRs have not been great. You all can bash about 1st round picks and O-line cap all you want.  Chuba as your #1 RB his entire career.  Adam Thielen as your best WR for 2 of 3 seasons is ridiculous. Then a rookie as your best in the 3rd season. Legette is not a 1st round talent. Probably closer to a 4th if you compare him to Brazzel this year. Coker has been a walking injury report. Nothing else to really speak of at WR or TE. Jimmy Horn has potential, but he is not an NFL starter yet. Oline has been better as run blockers than pass blockers. Ickey has always been so-so as a pass blocking LT. Center has been a revolving door for 3 years. Damien Lewis has been as marketed. Hunt is a great run blocker but an ok pass blocker - when healthy. Moton has been solid at RT. Biggest problem with the oline has been depth. When someone went down, their replacement became a glaring weakness. Overall a good but not great unit the last 2 years. 2023 was a ish show. Nothing else to say.  Not one game breaker, take it to the house offensive weapon since DJ Moore. Hopefully we get a little of that from Brazzell.  Either way, in his 4th season, it doesn't matter. You have to be able to overcome whatever comes your way. First 3 seasons with a young supporting cast is defendable. Can't use that anymore though. 3rd year in the offense. 3rd year with the same HC.   
    • Highest amount of OL salary cap in the league too. The Chiefs are behind us at 2 but we are ahead of them by a cool $23 million. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/position/offensive-line/_/year/2026/table/active/sort/cap_total
