Unpopular Panthers Opinions

Recommended Posts

What are some of your unpopular Panthers opinions? Can be past or present...

My biggest right now: Mike Shula isn't as bad as we think.  I think he's going to effectively know how to use McCaffrey and Samuel which will cause matchup nightmares for teams day 1.  I think the bigger problem was Gettleman, who was drafting size instead of athletes.  He finally seems to have changed that philosophy though, and I think it's gonna save his job and get us back into the playoffs next year.

Some more:

-Jake Delhomme in SB 38 was the best game a Panther quarterback has ever played.  Ever.  This may not be unpopular, idk

-Even after a 6-10 later, I think we handled the Josh Norman situation correctly

-I think Oher plays next year and plays well

People greatly over-estimate the impact of the dual TEs of Shockey and Olsen back in 2011.

Olsen had 45 catches for 540 yards.. Shockey had 37 catches for 455 yards yards. That's 82 catches for 995 yards combined. Olsen has been outdoing that by himself the last three seasons. Letting Shockey go allowed Olsen to become the great TE that he's been for us.

Kelvin Benjamin and Devin Funchess aren't as bad as everyone on this board makes them out to be

 

Ben Boulware is extremely overrated and won't ever sniff the 53 man roster 

 

We handled the Smitty situation as good as we could have at the time. The media made it out to be as bad as it seems right now.

    • Per Bill Barnwell  Vikings bring back a familiar face Vikings get: WR Adam Thielen Panthers get: 2026 sixth-round pick, 2027 seventh-round pick A reunion between Thielen and his former team seems too easy. The Vikings are struggling with injuries at wide receiver and a potential Jordan Addison suspension. The Panthers want to see what they have with their younger wideouts, and Hunter Renfrow's emergence in camp as a potential fourth or fifth option could squeeze a roster spot for Thielen, who doesn't play special teams. The problem is Thielen's $6.25 million base salary. The Vikings obviously would prefer the Panthers cut the 34-year-old and pick him up for free, but Carolina already paid Thielen a $1.5 million roster bonus earlier in the offseason, suggesting it expected to have him. His salary isn't yet guaranteed, but it will become so if he's on the roster in Week 1, leaving the Panthers until then to make a decision. If he does get released, he isn't likely to get anything close to $6.25 million from another team, so he also is facing some uncertainty. All sides involved probably would need to give a bit to make a mutually advantageous deal work. The Panthers would eat $1.5 million of Thielen's contract, getting two of the three picks the Vikings got from the Jets in the Harrison Phillips trade in return. Thielen would take a $1 million pay cut in return for having the remaining $3.8 million guaranteed. The Vikings cleared out almost exactly that much when they made the Phillips trade, allowing them to absorb what's left of Thielen's contract as part of the deal. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46053274/nfl-preseason-trades-2025-team-offers-players-draft-picks-contracts
    • From JoeBucsFan. Teams don't usually waste 2nd round picks like that. Kind of sounds like they think he just doesn't belong in the NFL.
