It sucks, but the people in here that are happy that gettleman is screwing up should go cheer for a different team.  I will never understand people that delight in their supposedly favorite team's failure

This site is full of idiots and people who just jumped on the wagon. They not real fans man. Same cats questioning cam as our starter.

i've always been somewhat wary of rivera even in his best moments.  if you dig back into the archives on this site you can find me basically calling for him to be fired off and on for like three seasons in a row.  of course most of it is me being pissed off and drunk in gameday threads.

i'm by no means on the gettleman sucks bus right now but this is one of like three or four moves he's made (mostly coming in the most recent offseason) that i can't figure out.

Yeah, I'm with you on Rivera. It truly baffles me how he continually flip flops in season between just being in a shell of conservative football philosophy, and the riverboat persona. Supposedly he had finally turned the corner last season. I just cannot figure it out.

As for Gettleman, I'm trying to give him leeway, but with how our team has looked so defeated mentally, I'm beginning to wonder exactly how that whole Norman situation played out with our locker room. Business is business, but players are still human, and there is something going on.

The Panthers aren't overreactory like The Huddle... or The Browns. There is a reason why we let Bene go. It'll feel like eternity until we know why but we'll know eventually

 

Ron is going to get hammered with Bene questions at his press conference today.

Getting rid of a good CB from one bad game vs bad safety play every game and fing tre still around

he actually has been legitimately terrible this year. it's still a huge shock given how thin we are at the position, and especially three days before a frigging game where we're beyond dinged up at virtually every position.

i'd love to be a fly on the wall of that front office. i have to imagine this decision was made with the approval of rivera (who may have actually been the one to suggest it to dave.)

whether or not this lessens the heat on dave or pours it on rivera remains to be seen

    • TBH, these are the kind of players that get weeded out of professional sports pretty quickly. Also, CMC is not that guy. There is zero indication that he isn't competitive. 
    • I like the free agency. It actually helps basically all schools across the board. Pretty much only ancient HC's and/or HC's that haven't been able to adjust have been complaining about the free agency. Your fortunes can be made or broken every offseason. It's not like before where a bad recruiting class or two meant multiyear purgatory.  I will never understand all the bellyaching about the NIL. If you want to talk about what ruined college athletics, it has been naked greed. Conference expansions for TV revenue, ever skyrocketing AD and facilities costs and now the attempts to permanently ruin the postseasons(football and basketball).  All the kids did was get a very well deserved piece of a very, very, VERY broken pie.
    • Nobody is saying they don't count against the cap, because yes, they technically do count against the cap as it's money the team is paying and it needs to be accounted for. But what you're not grasping it seems is that if a player gets $10 million guaranteed in their contract, whether they get literally $0 as a signing bonus or $8 million as a signing bonus, it doesn't change the overall cap hit of the contract, because cap hits are about the guaranteed money, not how much is paid up front. The only thing that how much is paid up front changes, is how the cap hit can be spread out amongst the years. So yes, technically there could end up being a slightly bigger cap hit in year 3 and 4 due to a bigger signing bonus, but if that is the case, it also means there will be a lesser cap hit in years 1 and 2 than there would have been with a smaller bonus.  But over the length of the contract, the size of the signing bonus has literally zero affect on the overall cap hit of the contract, because THAT part of it is 100% about the guaranteed money and nothing else.
