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.
