Not sure why he did this. Now the media's lighting him up for "lying straight through his teeth" and "not showing remorse." Won't affect his chances of getting signed somewhere but only hurt him in the public eye. I don't think he's lying though, and I think our team's response in the aftermath before the Ray Rice video came out supports that. His situation is not comparable to Rice's or any other DV situations, and I think it's completely unfair to call him a "woman-beater" even if he did cause some of those bruises on her arms (as he said he and his friend tried to restrain her). Still hanging on to a thread of hope that we re-unite Monsters Inc. by bringing the Kraken back for peanuts, but I know it's not happening.

Well, now how can you explain those bruises? 

"I never said I didn't do something wrong"

 

The fug Hardy?

He wasn't responding to "how can you explain those bruises?" Schefter started it out by saying that Hardy claimed to do nothing wrong and that he's innocent, and Hardy responded to that by saying he never said he didn't do anything wrong, but that he is innocent. Hardy's clearly a dumbass and brought this on himself. However, I do not think he's a woman-beater like everyone in the public is making him out to be.

I might be in the minority, but I do believe he is innocent. I don't believe for a second that he threw he on the futon or in the bathtub or whatever. You just listen to the 9-1-1 call and that doesn't jive with all the mannerisms of the call. He is like "Get this crazy coked-out bitch out of my house, PLEASE!".. 

Then watching the live twitter updates come through during the trial - I felt it was a wrap until the sentence was handed down and was floored.. Yes, he was stupid to be in the situation, but I never thought he did what he was accused of.

No doubt amigo.  As long as he's unsigned and JR remains pissed off at the other owners and the fact we lost in February I'm not giving up.  Same "crime" would have gotten him a game or two before the FUGGING RICE VIDEO (remember the now joke of a 6 game DV rule was AFTER the incident).

I have consistently said that the bruises/marks are consistent with someone trying to restrain someone, not beat the poo out of them as has been pushed by many. If Hardy wanted to beat the poo out of most people, he could do it. Moreover, but for that unfortunate incident, Hardy doesn't have a history of beating anyone, much less women. That's just the fact of the matter.

The truth of that night is nebulous enough to give him the side eye, but not enough to label him as a woman beater in my estimation. If you're going to label him, call him a dumbass. But that doesn't warrant a lifetime ban from the NFL.

ITT, idiots will still want Hardy back in 3...2...1...

Just to clarify, I don't think anyone wants him back to teach Sunday School to Junior.  But he's done his time, would play like a man possessed, would be the best bang for buck in football, and would take the 2016 Panthers from best team in the league to unstoppable juggernaut.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      They're examples of denying reality. Here are some others: ,- Bryce is the worst QB in the NFL right now (no he isn't) - Bryce is the worst QB in NFL history (no he's not; that's stupid) - Well then Bryce is at least the the worst QB in the league over the last three years (nope, he's actually improved a lot since year one, which was a turbulent year anyway) - That's not true, he hasn't Improved one but since his rookie year (oh come on) 🙄 - Well, even if he did, we can't win with him (obviously we can) - Yeah but not unless everyone else is damn near perfect (think the game film from our wins this year would back that up?) - Even so, we won those games in spite of him (officially the stupidest argument available) And no, those are made up. You can find those quotes and other equally moronic statements in various threads around the board. I know some folks always need to characterize whatever they're against as the worst thing in existence. It's hyperbole, and it's hypersilly. Likewise, you've got some who are so absolutely emotional about it that even if you think Bryce isn't good enough (which I do) they'll still call you a stan if you don't agree to label him the lousiest passer in existence 🙄 It's just dumb, and it's not realistic. But on the flipside, here are some statements which are; - Bryce is indeed capable of both playing in, and winning, an NFL game. Not on a consistent level though, and consistency is huge. - He is also capable of completing mid-range and even some deep passes; hell, he threw a beauty this past Sunday  - Yes, he has improved over his rookie season and over last year. Arguing against that is disingenuous. - Believe it or not, other players are the roster do make mistakes in games also.  - And lastly, while I know it hurts some people's narrative and arguments, Bryce does indeed deserve credit for the winning games he's played in this season. ... Every single one of those statements is true. And since i acknowledge all that, I must be in favor of keeping him in place then Except I'm not 😕 ... Don't know of anyone who doesn't think he'll get the fifth year option. Not ready to guarantee anything beyond that, though. So bottom line: Yeah, Bryce is fully expected to be our quarterback through next year. If there were a logical, realistic path to acquire a more capable starter and transition Bryce to a backup I'd be elated, but that's a pipe dream. This where we're at  I don't **** it, you don't like it, others don't either. But here We are so let's make the best of it that we can.

      Let's be real. Signing Matt Kalil who was at the time inconsistent at best was always an extremely risky move and largely initiated by the fact he was related to one of our most prominent players Ryan Kalil. Memories get fuzzy the longer time passes I guess. Go watch some old Panthers games with Ted Ginn nearly losing us games. Then watch Cam Newton keep going back to him again and again and again. Then read all the Xavier Legette criticism while making excuses for Bryce being swept by rookie 2nd round pick Tyler Shough. Throwing TMac under the bus is just further proof how deranged the Bryce Young defense force has become. Bryce Young can barely compete in this gutter iteration of the NFC South. Let's see him take this WR core to the playoffs in an NFC South with Drew Brees and Matt Ryan
