Greg Hardy hates the fact he's not here

Greg Hardy's former team was playing on TVs all around him at The Owners Box sports bar inside the Omni Hotel Monday night. But the Cowboys' standout pass rusher didn't seem interested. He was surrounded by fans seeking a photo or an autograph as part of a promotion for Gameday Sports Tours.

It's clear that Hardy does not care for the Carolina Panthers, the team that drafted him in 2010 but chose not to re-sign him after he missed all but one game in 2014 while facing domestic violence charges.

Hardy's feelings about the Carolina franchise were particularly evident when Jeremy Smith, a 38-year-old Cowboys fan, approached the Pro Bowl defensive end with a Panthers mini helmet to be signed.

"No, I can't do it," Hardy told him.

However, Hardy quickly found a solution, reaching into his pocket to grab what appeared to be a wad of cash. He peeled off a $100 bill, signed his nickname "Kraken" and handed it to Smith.

"I was a little irritated because I spent $37 on the mini helmet," Smith said. "But he offset it by throwing down the $100 bill. I was a little surprised. It made me feel better."

Smith said he would likely have the bill professionally framed.

Am I the only one that's worried about playing this mother fuger?  He said while he was here a few times the QB he wanted to hit the most was Cam... probably even more so now.

Hardy likes to violently light QBs up when he gets to them.   Wouldn't put it past him to bring something extra against Cam.  Hope Oher is ready for him when Cowboys week rolls around.

When you go through a breakup, you either can't stand to be reminded of your ex because you were in love with her (and you take every opportunity to trash her because you want to make yourself feel better), or you can talk about it unemotionally and move on because you didn't really care about her.

 

The former seems to be the case with Greg, DeAngelo, and Smitty.

Fun fact - Oher and Hardy were teammates in both high school and college. Before they went to Ole Miss both played at Briarcrest in Memphis, which was one of our (Christian Brothers) main rivals.

    • What it feels like is a horrible source reality. What a person sees is a horrible source for reality. Stats can be easily misunderstood because because they are interpretive and contextual. Very large data sets with dozens more more connected variables are difficult to deal with and understand correctly. Throw in confirmation bias, abstraction, emotions and the way human brains are wired make it really easy to roll with eye tests and intuition. The negativity for Bryce was really high and most were ready to trade that asset for peanuts until the second half of last year when he began to play much, much better.  Hope sprang eternal.  The Saints game last year.  Going toe to toe and almost beating the two teams who went to the Superbowl last year.  Beating the Falcons when the Falcons had everything to play for.  Haters started adjusting their tune. Fan and media starting saying it looks like Carolina has found their franchise QB.   The real answer was and is, maybe. If he plays great on Sunday the anti-Bryce crowd will find other excuses or say it's only one game. If he plays horrible, it'll be more of the "I told you so. I knew it before he was drafted." (which is beyond stupid since there there is not an actual way to know if a player will be successful in the NFL or not.) I'll leave with a simple example.  Of the initial list of incompletions due to WR error, Jarod Goff has 0.  He was 31 for 39 at an almost 80% completion percentage.  His WR's much has balled out. Except when you add the facts that only 11 of those passes were to WRs.  14 were to RB's and 6 to the TE.  Gibbs has 10 of those receptions and he's elite so that explains why we shouldn't put much stock into this stat.  But then we see that Gibbs also set an NFL record with the least number of yards (31) for any player with at least 10 receptions in a game. Fun stuff! Oh yeah.  From week 1 how many people had Justin Fields and Daniel Jones playing at elite levels?   
    • How do you reconcile with the fact that the most competent and productive the Panthers passing offense has looked at any point between 2023 and 2025 were both games where Andy Dalton (who is completely washed and terrible) started? 680 passing yards and 5 touchdowns in two games. And one of those games was with Frank Reich as the head coach. This team needs competent QB play.
    • If we're in position and he is there, he will absolutely be the pick. He goes to South Carolina after all
