Ok guys...24 hours + of shock.  Now time to act like adults.  Things happen in the world we have no control over.  Some of them we like and some we don't.  Some we understand and some we don't.

The rampant speculation (I know all we have) as to why this happened....which many seem to have now taken as fact and are spewing venomous anger toward Mr,. Richardson and even the team and players is a bit much. If you are not going to continue to be a fan because of this....I don't think you were a fan to begin with....but I am not going to argue with anyone on that.

I still love the Panthers.........will support this team and have confidence in our players and coaches to continue to work toward the goal we all have for this team.

I do not understand why this happened...no one does.  It does not matter how many theories are out there.  I wish Mr. Richardson would tell us but he likely will not.  This is a personnel issue and that is universally treated with discretion among professionals.

I prefer now to turn my focus on the excitement of seeing Cam throw the football after all these months...to see our rookies in their 1st NFL action..and when the season starts..to see "The Evolution."

Nothing wrong with having opinions but a lot of this stuff is over the top..some quite unbelievable.  I am going to trust that Mr. Richardson would not have made such a bold move at this time if he did not have a good reason.  I do not of course know what that is and neither do any of you.

 

Calm down guys.

honestly DG was doing something wrong. I've never seen so many players trash an organization and GM after being let go and then collectively rejoice the moment he's fired.

in all my years following football, I've just never seen it.

some stuff was made public. some stuff was kept behind closed doors. either way, Jerry pulled the trigger, and all we can do from here on out is move on to the next chapter of Panthers football.  

this is how we reacted when Smitty was let go. 

this is how we reacted when Greg Hardy was put on the exempt list 

this is how we reacted when we lost both super bowls

football is not a sport for the faint hearted. If you get super emotional after moves like these, I suggest you expend your energy on something else.

Good post.  Perspective is needed here.  The team is intact for this year and bringing in Hurney should calm down any dissension since he's well liked and respected within the organization.  I'm sure a better long term fit will be found.

If people can't get mad about things like this, then what are we even doing here? If there was no emotion involved in being a fan then what's the point? I'm not going to bash JR or any of the players, but I will say that there is no reason whatsoever to be in a hurry to extend a 34yr old LBer with another year left on his deal or a 32yr old TE with two years left on his deal. TD and Olsen are great players but all NFL players are replaceable. It happens every single year for all 32 teams and the one's who know when to cut guys lose are the same one's who tend to be contenders year in and year out.

      2025 Roster Cuts

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      It's definitely a historical issue at QB but to be perfectly blunt, we also don't do a good job of really developing almost any position if you look at the last decade or so. I tend to be on the side of that being far less a development issue than an evaluation deficiency.  I think we are in the situation at QB2/3 recently due to the overall roster being absolutely abhorrent and the QB classes being quite thin. It is harder to justify another Matt Corral(or several) when you can potentially get a real two deep contributor at other positions.  But, it was a lot of hard work to get to the point where are roster is so incredibly bad that luxury picks literally are not in our vocabulary.  This is the reaping what you sow portion of our history.

      That is what I meant about our front office. They are like someone filling out a March Madness bracket based on preference of uniform colors and mascots. There's no rhyme of reason to some of these fugg'n mind numbing decisions they make.  They go all in on these flimsy-@ss prospects and are gun shy when it comes to more solid prospects.  It's literally maddening and the reason I stopped being so emotionally involved in this team. Heck the only reason I'm active on the board today is one, it's my day off and two, it's cut down time.
