The Panthers don't want Randy Moss's help

Apparently Randy Moss threw out an invite to help out the team (not sure in what capacity). Looks like it was declined.

The Carolina Panthers seem to be in a bit of a spiral downward this season. After finishing 15-1 in 2015 en route to a Super Bowl appearance, a 4-8 record in 2016 isn’t what anyone expected. The losses would be bad enough, but as they pile on, other nasty things are finding their way out of the cupboards as well.

Take for instance franchise quarterback Cam Newton sitting over not wearing a tie when the team traveled. That sparked immediate outrage and conspiracy theories abound. Now retired wide receiver turned analyst Randy Moss is making some news of his own.

Randy Moss on MNF: "I live in Charlotte ... We want the Carolina Panthers to get back on track. Whatever it takes."

 
 

 

Moss threw out a really great sentiment for Carolina that could have been turned into quite the motivation. Moss, known for being a bit of a prima dona during his playing days does have a certain fire to him that helped set him apart from others. That fire could in turn be used to get the Panthers out of their funk.

According to Moss though, Carolina turned down Moss’ advances.

@LibbyWeihsmann ive sent the invite and thts wht frustrating!#egos

Arrogant as hell. Despite Moss' diva reputation, coaches have raved about his football intelligence. Plus, when you're a young player and a guy like Randy fuging Moss is willing to come try to teach you a thing or two you fuging listen.

KB has regressed this year. Funchess hasn't improved. What's it gonna hurt to let Randy fuging Moss talk to these guys? Afraid you're gonna hurt Ricky Proehl's feelings or something?

I bet even Ricky would've welcomed this. He would've been a service to at least the WRs.

If he's offering to help the WR's, then yea, we could use his help. KB still can't run or finish a route to save his life, and Funchess definitely needs the help. 


Randy Moss was a terrible route runner, don't really want him teaching anyone how to run a route. Now if he can teach someone to be 6'4 and run a 4.2 in pads then I'm all for his help.

Lol, what?  Randy Miss is one of the best receivers of all time.  I'm sorry, I think he ran routes just fine.  Jesus.

Randy Moss ran like one route for the majority of his career, the streak and it worked because he was an absolute freak of fuging nature. If he had even half of the technical route running ability of a guy like Jerry Rice he would have shattered every damn receiving record by such a large margin they would have renamed the position after him. The dude coasted on his natural ability for a huge chunk of his career.

    • And those targets are mostly going to TMac, who will be a part of the FUTURE of the team. Did it remove the most reliable WR and Bryce's safety blanket? Absolutely. But it's also allowing him to build better chemistry with TMac, Stephens, Horn, Evans, etc. I am pumped to see Coker back and hopefully they can reignite that connection. 
    • It's the same thing that made Bryce the #1 overall pick. I've never seen such mass delusion about a football player before. Everyone convinced themselves that the fact that Bryce was below to severely below average in practically every physical attribute for an NFL QB just wouldn't matter because he has everything else you need and that'll more than make up for it. When has such an argument ever been made for an NFL prospect before? We watch prospects plummet every year because they run a couple tenths slower in the 40 time than expected. Smitty had everything you want in a receiver except he was 5'9" so he goes in the 3rd round. That's the way these things generally go. If you check a lot of boxes but leave some key ones unchecked you're not an elite prospect. With Bryce though, the physically limitations were always obvious so it gave more time to be able to build that into the equation and come up with reasons for why he'd be able to overcome it. Now we have all these same shortcomings having shone brightly on the NFL field and we STILL have people trying to convince themselves he'll be able to overcome it while ignoring that our past two wins and his improved play have come while riding the back of RB putting up GOAT RB production over the past two weeks. What changed wasn't Bryce. What changed is that Rico is playing out of his damn mind. Pretty much every NFL roster caliber QB can shine if he can get 200+ yards out of the RB behind him.
