Peanut talks Panthers...glowingly


Recommended Posts

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.

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

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.

You know I'm all in on this.  Been preaching it for weeks!!

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

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.

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

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...

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
