I know, this isn't sexy or groundbreaking news, but I like his confidence in our WR corps, for him to be that confident and defiant in telling the media that makes me think he is either A. In denial or B. He has loved what he has seen in practice the last few days from our WRs that the media didn't see and was cutoff from and he really feels like that. I hope it's B.

Oh he said this today BTW during our presser

Yea he said something to the same effect about the LT situation last year and look how that turned out

I mean at what point is this board going to stop waiting for Ron to insult our intelligence? The WR situation is crap, everybody knows it, but you're not going to get him to admit to that because his job is not to bury his own players, it's to be constructive.

The Panthers are one injury away from having a very solid WR core in 2015.  After the Panthers drafted Funchess, I think everyone was excited about our WR's.  Nobody expected or wanted KB to blow out his knee, but this is the NFL and injuries happen. With the improved o-line, I think the Panthers are going to ground & pound more and that is not a bad thing.  In addition to an improved o-line, the Panthers also have some very talented RB's in Stewart, CAP, and etc.  I still think the Panthers will pick up another WR, but in the meantime enjoy the running game.

Until somebody actually fugs up in a real game he really shouldn't be saying anything different. Its not likely him playing Pinocchio is going to turn water into wine ,  but him going all Huddle on his own players can only be counterproductive at this point.

He can say whatever he wants as long as they have a game plan to feature the run game and tightends. That is this teams saving grace with the WR corp they have.We will see if Shula will or will not be a bone head when preparing a game plan

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By CRA · Posted

      Well, the whole rationale used  for the high IQ point guard is it would allow us to spend our resources elsewhere….instead it’s all our first rounders ever since to support the bad pick.  Reality is our front office is just bad.  If you wanted Bryce Young you were going to need to do something unique and special for him.  Instead we just insert a QB with traditional tools into old NFL concepts that pair with traditional talent and our pass game is whack

      Good to see some other folks are speaking the same language on this. It's simple common sense. But it seems like there's a disconnect due to the misplaced value the team has put on Thielen because he was the only vaguely good veteran WR willing to sign with the Panthers after we traded away DJ Moore. That time has come and gone. We have two first round WR's on the roster now.

      Yeah I’m turning this into a Bryce can’t play QB thread. Just stating that offense was a poo show two years ago. No QB is succeeding in that, much less a rookie. I feel like it’s become a common debate strategy on here to just jump down the rabbit hole of saying he is just bad in so many ways when any certain point gets countered. If that doesn’t work we can deflect to how poorly this team has been ran. In regards to the actual point we are debating, the OL was struggling, half of the skill players aren’t on a roster, Mingo has done nothing with his new team and the staff are either not coaching or on their 3rd team in 3 years, aside from McCown (I liked McCown too). Honestly about as bad as it gets. No need to try to state how good of an offense it was billed it because that has been proven false at this point.
