Should Panthers pursue Murray?

90% likely he wont be with the eagles next year.   Trade stew while you can still get something for him and pick up a guy 3 years younger who runs just as hard?  I think he wants to go back to Dallas though. 

 

Thoughts? (please.. spare us the doom and gloom talk about talking about trades during the season, its a business)

Well since you've instructed us how we're allowed to respond...

No they shouldn't.  Here are reasons why that don't involve player trades mid-season or "doom and gloom"

  • He's a malcontent.  What happens when he's getting less red-zone touches than our QB?  Why seek out that sort of likely problem
  • I'm pretty sure he's not 3 years younger than Stewart
  • Running "just as hard" is not really valid.  Stewart fits our system and runs well within it.  Murray's stellar year in Dallas came as a "give him the ball and run him directly into the ass of a very good offensive line" back.  He didn't have to deal with a lot of the complexity our run game involves due to Cam being Cam.  He also didn't have to deal with a bad OL (which we do not currently have but our OL's performance is not at all what we expected and there's no guarantee he can survive without a good OL if it regresses)

In short: lolnowtf

demarco murray is garbage. His great year with Dallas was a product of an amazing offensive line. 

Also, Murray is 27 ... Stewart is 28. 

makes no sense at all. 

Not that I want us to go out and sign Murray or anything, but he was a very good back long before the Cowboys offensive line got as good as it was/is.  He's definitely not garbage and is a victim of poor blocking and being a poor fit for Philly's running scheme.

      Is Charlotte the worst sports city right now?

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I went to Canes games back in '04 & '05 when you were probably still a swimmer waiting to make your dad a father. There was no one there bc they sucked. Some of the lowest attendance in the NHL. As a Panthers fan coming off a SB season (03-04), I couldn't even believe they put a hockey team in Raleigh, and given the attendance, a lot of people speculated they would be relocated somewhere back up north where they would be supported and not "Mayberry." Seriously, educate youself.  That is reality. That being said, comparing that environment to 2024 Canes would be disingenuous. I was at PNC last year and know how great the current environment is. Comparing the current environment at BOA to 10 years ago is just as disingenuous.  Just bc you didn't witness how good BOA is when the Panthers are actually decent doesn't change reality. Seriously, surely you see that coming from such an elitist environment like the globally renowned world-class city of Raleigh, NC... I guarantee you if you went to a Canes game and a Panthers game in 2005, the difference would be unreal bc the Panthers were awesome and the Canes were (at the time) a moribund franchise. I have been in BOA when the whole stadium was rocking. You simply are young, don't know what you're talking about, but want to portray yourself as having knowledge about things you simply don't. You have a lot in common with modern day politicians and televangelists Like I said, Idiocracy has prevailed... Have a great day too!

      Let it all out bro.   At the end of the day Charlotte fans just aren't that passionate as other fans. The Panthers and Hornets crowds are wack.    Go to a Canes game and you will understand this. Tell the family I said hi and Happy Father's Day.

      Dude you have no idea what you're talking about. Best place to live?  LMAO... that's your criteria...  Charlotte gets put all over those lists too... come on man... and those lists have zero to do with sports. I'm done after this bc I'm punching down intellectually here... The Panthers have been bad for 6 years now. You are obviously young and not overly educated based off the "dunks" you're putting out there that certainly are, so let me educate you today on the Panthers. The Panthers sold out for well over a decade straight. BOA has been as good an environment as there is when the team is good.  Fan support for the Panthers has been incredible when the team has even remotely reciprocated. The idea that Charlotte doesn't support the Panthers is utter BS. People in Raleigh have the biggest little brother syndrome of all time... Nobody outside of the Triangle cares about any of your "vaunted" sports team outside of Duke-UNC in basketball on a national scale. Sure, the Canes are great. But nationally, the WWE dwarfs the NHL in ratings. More people care about Cody Rhodes than Sebastian Aho... or anyone else in the NHL for that matter... I doubt less than 5% of anyone in this state outside of Raleigh even knows who that is... that's a knock on Aho who is a great player, it's just the NHL barely makes a ripple in the overall hierarchy of American sports. It's not in the same universe as the NFL or NBA no matter how badly you want to tell yourself otherwise. Raleigh is not a big-time sports city, no matter how much you want to scream into the abyss about it. Neither is Charlotte. But no one here is making such a nonsense argument... LOL it's good to be young and to be ignorant enough to be confidently wrong... WTF are you even on this board though since Charlotte is so beneath you? There is an actual discussion board on this very site for Raleigh sports since they are so superior...  Maybe it's bc I'm watching Idiocracy with my son, but your timing is perfect, my man... The dumbest among us have become the most confidence in their ignorance... God Bless America!!
