Peanut talks Panthers...glowingly

[Captain Morgan]

Although it was difficult leaving Chicago, Tillman called the move to Carolina “one of the best decisions that I’ve ever made.” He expects the Panthers to be right back in the running next season after their loss to Denver in this year’s Super Bowl.

“My experience there was just so amazing,” Tillman said. “I learned a lot. Being a 13-year vet, guys think you know everything. I don’t.

“I learned a lot about myself. I learned a lot about the business side of football. I learned a lot from Dave Gettleman, our general manager, who I think is the coolest guy in the NFL from an executive position.”

Tillman said the ties that bind were similar between his Super Bowl teams in Chicago and Carolina: chemistry, cohesiveness, camaraderie. And both had strong leaders with Smith and Ron Rivera, respectively.

“I know they’re two times, two separate occasions, two different teams ... but it was a team mentality,” he said. “Everyone bought into what the head coach was selling. We bought all that stock. We’re a team, we’re going to win, Super Bowl — we bought all that early.

Yup

Who is the poster who claimed that he knows for a fact all the players hate Gettleman?

A team player, those are the type of players the Panthers are trying to build around...

CPantherKing, and it's well known he makes that stuff up. He has no inside info.

What's funny is he thinks people will believe him when he actually has no credibility at all. Most people just laugh at him and make fun of him.

Bring him back please. We can stash him on the PUP until like week 13. Until then he can be an extra coach. With 3 rookies, I'll take all the help we can get.

absolutely

It would be tough for him to coach and rehab at the same time.

Sanchez wearing 31...if that matters at all.

Not like an actual coach. Just to be around them in the meeting rooms and on the sidelines. Then if he's ready mid-late season we've got a fresh Peanut for the home stretch.

Saw that and went "bummer!"  BUT, If Peanut comes back, I imagine Sanchez will gladly change numbers just for the experience to sit at the guy's feet and be on the same team with him!  There were some changes to rookie jersey numbers last year in preseason I believe...

[Wundrbread33]

I agree. He would be a heck of a coach.

 

 

 

 

...except for teaching guys how to cover Steve Smith...
