3 former Panthers...

Yep. Finnegan and Johnson weren't around long but they finished up with the Panthers.

They mention Rae Carruth on the front page, but somehow he didn't make the list.

All I can think is that he wasn't in the league long enough. He was certainly criminal enough.

They explained why he and a few others (OJ, Rice, Hernandez) didn't make the list. Not that it made much sense.

Yeah. That made no sense at all.

Gotta say though, while I obviously don't like that or the inclusion of Newton, outside of those things it's  a fairly solid list.

Greg Hardy could be #1??? WTF. Ray Lewis committed murder. He killed somebody. And got away with it like OJ. How does that beat out Domestic Violence? Ray/ OJ should be #1 and Vick should be #2. Then you got someone like Burfict who is looking to hurt anybody on the field all the time and Pacman who put some poor guy in a wheelchair for life. And Hardy is still ranked higher?

This list is wack.

Exhibit A on what Ray Rice did to Greg Hardy and the Carolina Panthers.  Apparently video proof is FAR less valuable than public perception of an innocent man in the eyes of the law, with Rice not even on the list, at all.  Grandstanding from limp wristed kooks whose pitchforks were nowhere near Tampa, Florida, week 1 2014.

Greg was never found innocent. Charges were dropped after Holden failed to show up in court after Hardy and her reached an agreement out of court. He was found guilty then he appealed.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
