Lets get this out the way, Panthers Are Not Going To The SB Without Josh

There's no freaking way Norman should be paid more than Luke, the guy had a great season last year, but damn man he's not worth $16 million a year! If you refused to sign YOUR paycheck, because you thought you deserved more, what would happen? I think a lot of folks have forgotten that before last year, Norman did absolutely nothing.

I hate when you post @beastson. You are one of the worst posters on here, filled with knee jerk reactions. You said the same thing when benewikere got injured last year and cursed the coaching staff for not taking him out.

can you stop posting to spare everyone else your idiocy?

Sometimes ppl will freak out when unexpected things happen, such as KB's ACL...

We have a decent chance to make it far in the playoffs, but our weaknesses will be exposed against the elite teams in the NFL. Everyone was fine with our bargain bin signings on the OL, praising them as the work of a genius, then the OL got predictably and absolutely throttled by Von Miller and Denver's D. I can see that happening again but with our secondary unless Gettleman can sell his soul to the devil and acquire a real #1 corner somehow. As of now we have a bunch of nickel and dime corners on our team at best, much like we had a bunch of scrubs on OL last year.

This just in...the Panthers ARE the elite of the NFL. Gettleman never uttered the words, "Super Bowl wins are overrated. Cut Norman."  Josh is not the difference between confetti and regret.

If you have watched the Panthers since it all began in 95' like I have, think about how special Josh Norman was.  The Panthers never had a CB put up remotely close to the season he put up.  The closest a CB in our franchise history ever came to Josh's level of dominance might be Ricky Manning and it was for two games lol.  Watching him last year was amazing, knowing whoever came onto the field was getting shut down, all the way up to the SB when he shut down DT.   A shut down CB like Norman is not easy to replicate, that's why we've never had one in our franchise history.  Sucks we only got to enjoy in for a year and a half..Best CB in franchise history shown the door in a year we are Super Bowl favorites and can afford him, makes sense.

I trust DG's judgement. I'm sure he has a backup plan. A trade for a CB or maybe a trade to solidify the Oline...DG made a decision to let Josh go, the Patriots did the same with THE BEST CB IN THE GAME (Revis) and they were fine! We will be also!

Remember DG's philosophy...hog mollies win games!

I know he's overreacting, but im shocked that so many of you are just shrugging this off and assuming Gettleman is making  the right move just because he's made good moves in the past. Let me remind you what just happend: WE JUST LET THE BEST CORNER IN THE GAME WALK AND GOT NOTHING IN RETURN. Our pass rush is garbage and our secondary outside of Norman was nothing special to begin with. In case your memory is a little clouded, go pop in some tapes of Weeks 3 through 10 of the 2014 season before Josh got the start and see what a doormat this defense was. 

 

These shutdown corners dont grow on trees, and maybe im wrong, but the first step of making it back to a super bowl should be keeping the guys that got you there

I know a lot of posters on here get a raging hard on from watching our GM refuse to fold and stand firm on prices, but at the end of the day would you rather fork over a couple extra million more than you would prefer to ensure you keep one of your best players, or do you want to stand firm and lose him? Sorry but Im not gonna automatically give GMan the benefit of the doubt just because of his history. He's just as much to blame for this as Josh is.

We also had a pash rush

That garbage was sixth in the league as far as sacks go last season. The team had 44 total sacks on the season. Five more sacks throughout the season, which equates to .333 sacks per game difference, and the Panthers would have been tied for second. The Panthers averaged 2.75 sacks per game. The league leader, Denver with 52, averaged exactly .5 sacks more per game. How exactly is that garbage?

I'd like to dispute this notion that JNo can "shut down any WR in the game". 3 times we went man vs. the G-Men. First OBJ toasts Norman and drops a would-be score, with the 2nd and 3rd plays vs man resulting in TDs for OBJ (who JNo was covering). Sure the Giants were in comeback mode, but you can find guys to excel in zone with coverage help for a hell of a lot less than $16 million a year.

    • Another layer to that is Ive seen Seattle has been in the market for CB help this off-season.   Michael had a higher PFF grade than Horn who got 15 games this season. He wants to be here too, that's a huge bonus for any 5 win team that had awful pass rush.  The 7th rounder Michael Barrett didn't last long on Seattle, he was cut before the season I think and ended up on browns PS. He's already been on 5.......5 teams within one year.......
    • You have gave the board some recent gold via posting. Heres my poor attempt at the truthful play-by-play of the time during post- I pulled out the old laptop to do my shitposting and check on websites. Open the huddle and see this new thread. Open thread and read CRAs post, {inner thinking, oooOOooo this is my lane and I got this}. Make sure not to scroll even to the 2nd post. 23% of current neurons still firing start up and two names appear- Captain and Josh....... about another 43 seconds past "O GOD" it's July 4th weekend and I got medicine to pick up. (If the laptop didn't give away my aging, the meds should...) I need to split, think long panther careers and the hint-  Ryan Kalil was a late 2nd and Pro bowls(even all-pros too) he's got to be OLman and Mikie Minter is among the all-time Panthers career leaders. Drop my post. Scramble to get keys, wallet, and phone. Check my phone- its 17% battery.....fug I now have to raw dog the pickup line and put the phone on charge.... Flip flops, sweat ringed filled hat, and shades acquired. Get in my pos rav4 and think about not running the A/C. Pull out the drive way and reach the 1st stop light, A/C is wide open. I check my shirt to see if there's any new stains on my house shirt, bush off the Bojangles salt that I see.... Neurons re-fire and focus on the comments CRA made that no one would get this....... Dang IT, that means it isn't Ryan Kalil or Mike Minter! CVS is close, but I know its impossible I get back withing 10 minutes to change my post and my phone is on the charger. {Think you monkey, at one point you were a draft nerd}. Reach the CVS line, by some grace its not 5 cars deep during 5 o'clock traffic hell. Im second in line after the car in front of me both turn in, they have to go back and forth to line up while Im a pro for that geometry. Neurons finally reach peak performance as Ive re-thought draft classes. Think obscure and unknown 7th rounders with long careers. Some Sunday/Monday night member berry fell out of my Melon, Will montgomery during the players intros for washington. I thought he out of the league and was shocked to see him still playing around the 2015 years. I do a goggle background check and that refreshed memory. Pick up the meds and enjoy the sweet smelling cool CVS air. Driving back and check in on one of the local bums at the big stop light, wow he's got a new fancy rug. Think about all the old food I got and need to start giving it away and rethink it. Reach home and post a follow up and I know Minter is wrong too, I check the draft history and see Robert Mcclain. Too late, but that would have been my guess....open CRAs link and get "upset" at the DBs name.    
    • THANKS my guy! Keeping up with this threads theme, if I view a thread and there's only 20 posts and some time passes. If I see there's one new post and read the name; @Dave Gettleman's Shortsis among the chosen few that I will reopen that thread just to see what you posted.    Thanks again, plus not just a scout, thats scotty mccloughans son?!?!? If not for the deep claws of booze, scotty is among the best talent finders this league has recently had. Last I heard he ran a consulting business. Caden could be one of those who's on a early path to being a GM in the future. I was a big fan of his dad, dam shame about booze demon ruining his career.
