Anybody listening to Darin Gantt on WFNZ?

My God, people STILL take him seriously? He's worse than Observer journalists at this point. I think Darin Gantt might be functionally retarded with his obsessive Jake Delhomme/John Fox/Marty Hurney slurping two days after that embarrassing loss.

can you provide a summary of what is being said?

You guys still don't get it do you?

The Panthers control what is said and written about them. There is no free press when it comes to them. Cross a line, and you will find yourself not having access any longer. Its their right, its a private company and are not legally obligated to allow any access at all to their people. The ultimate goal of the Panthers and the NFL is to have exclusive television and web content with no one else covering it. Things are heading that direction, and will only get worse. Any sense of community is being generally phased out season after season.

Gantt is basically treating Jake's performance as a blip on the radar and keeps saying over and over how only six teams have won more than we have since 2002. He's making fun of anyone that is suggesting that Jake is a bad quarterback. He's slamming Matt Moore saying that he's not a capable NFL quarterback and can't even compare to Jake's awesomeness.

Who cares? We all saw what happened which was essentially the second consecutive meltdown by Jake Delhomme. But we are in a lose/lose situation. We are STUCK WITH JAKE so for better or worse he is our QB and we better hope that he gets us to the playoffs because if he doesn't then the niners will be richly rewarded with a pretty nice little draft pick...

If this is the first year of the Fox era that we end up with a good draft pick only to see it go to the Niners I will freakin murder someone.

thanks SMF,

yeah, no one except a company man at this point would slam Moore and promote Jake. If anything they are basically equal options with one guy declining and one guy having room to grow.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
