Who is in charge of the panthers right now?


Recommended Posts

We're in trouble. Maybe Kalil isn't panning out, i was skeptical about that contract. Also I have a feeling that Big Cat never knows what's truly going on, other than what's being reported to him. If he doesn't like it he makes drastic decisions.

Unfortunately it seems to be the players, as it was under Hurney.

While having player input and them feeling a vested interest in the team can be a good thing; it doesn't seem like the Panthers know a middle ground under JR.

Huge contracts to aging veterans coming up! Future success be damned!

I mean Kalil and the rest of the Panthers have been on vacation for weeks and training camp hasn't even started. I'm not sure how you could come up with that hypothesis.

JR still remains the problem with this franchise. As much as TD and Olsen does for the community, the idea of just letting them go after the Smitty and JNo fiasco probably didn't sit well. But JR needs to realize this is a business so the next GM will over pay a couple of guys in their mid 30s. No, I don't want to see them go, but at the same time, they could stay for less.

Jerry Richardson has been, and is still in charge.  I believe his hand was behind a lot of the crazy contracts that Hurney put together, and he probably was right there next to Hurney in disbelief when Peppers decided to leave.  He's not going to get a yes-man, but he is going to get a second in command who will either be good at the cap/contracts (Hurney) or at scouting (Gettleman).

Hurney took at 1-15 team to the Super Bowl in two years.  Gettleman took a 6-10 team to a back-to-back-to-back division winner and a Super Bowl in three years.  So you can freak out, but JR hasn't done a bad job at finding GMs--the only other one he's hired was Bill Polian, who also did pretty well while he was here.

Now if he decides to give Rivera control of Players/Personnel, then you can begin the freakout.

    • It’s wild to me that so many of you guys are threatened by the idea of an opposing team fan who is polite in 2025. He’s been posting here on and off for years, usually when our teams play each other which hasn’t been for a while. I’d maybe understand this treatment if it was a falcons or saints fan, but packers fans in general are one of the nicer fan bases as long as you aren’t another NFC north team (especially the bears).   
    • Some players excel on the big stage, while others freeze and succumb to the pressure. I’m not convinced Cam took a dive. I think he didn’t handle the stage very well. The pressure got to him and he folded. He wouldn’t be the first quarterback or player to struggle in a Super Bowl. Two HOF examples - John Elway and Jim Kelly. The 2002 MVP, Rich Gannon, threw 5 interceptions against the Bucs. Poor performances happen.  Unless of course you believe all these players threw the games they played in, but if that occurred, surely someone by now would have admitted taking a dive? 🤷‍♂️
    • It was always a matter of time with Cam’s playing style and a shorter shelf life than passers that protect themselves. I suppose Cam could have still been playing in 2028 ten years after the hit took place, but he would need to have evolved as a quarterback and become more of a passer than the dual threat maestro he was. It’s sad because it makes us think of what could have been, but I do feel it was always a matter of time until all the hits took their toll.
