These are all horrible over-reactions by most of you. You won't know if the Gettleman firing was a bad move until we've played 2-3 seasons without him . If they're all losing seasons and no playoffs then I'll agree with you. But at this point I believe we have the still have the roster to contend for the next couple of years even with a not so great GM, with the combination of pieces Hurney and Gettleman have given to us from the past.

This season is gonna be ugly.  I'll be the first to eat crow if we win the division or slip into the playoffs as a wild card.

Actually the pieces are already in place for this season.   We will be fine. It is the next 5 season that will be ugly.

That doesn't tell the whole picture at all.

Take away the 17-2 season (which was an abnormality) and the Panthers went 26-24-1 under DG, so average. 

That 7-8-1 year was a fluke regarding the standings and anyone argues for DG based on that year is just kidding themselves. 

The team has been wildly inconsistent. I see all these comparison to Belichek and how he runs the Pats, well the Pats also don't go 17-2 one year and then come back and go 6-10 the next. If you're going to run a team like DG does you better have a player that can carry your team to victory like the Pats do when poo starts to hit the fan. While Cam can be that guy, he's not yet.

When you have to take away one out of four seasons he was here to make your point, it's not a good point.

You can't take away events that actually happened, I hate when people say stuff like that. People use that arguement against Cam all the time , "take away his MVP season and he's just an average inconsitent mediocre QB."

You have to take everything into account, all seasons, and all factors. The fact is , he got us into a position to get to the 2015 season, you could argue Star and Short were huge factors in us having a good enough pass rush to generate all those turnovers and be one of the best defenses in the NFL that season , which hugely contributed to alot of our wins, as good as Cam was. He did alot of other stuff to im sure to get to that point, it wasn't just just him riding the coat tails of players Hurney drafted.

Gettleman wasn't at fault for all the injuries that occured in 2016, which is a gigantic reason why we lost so many games many of which were very close games. You could argue the worst thing Gettleman did for 2016 is not provide Cam with good enough OTs after getting exposed in the Super Bowl, and shitting the bed with Josh Norman and fielding a couple rookies instead.  You can't blame him for Cam getting injured on that TD run, Luke getting another concussion, or many of the oline injuries simply bad luck, and you can't blame Gettleman for Gano missing the game winner in Denver. If Gano hits that kick we probably go somewhere between 8-8 and 11-5 in my opinion. Would have totally changed the mood of the season and may have had a butterfly affect and possible the players play much differently and some of those injuries dont occur.

IMO, I think this roster is better than 2015. We will be fine this year. Next year though, I have no idea.

When that season was out of the ordinary, yeah you take it out of the equation.

It's like when you run a formula 10 times and you only get a good result one time. Outside of that one year we have been mediocre and anyone that says otherwise is arguing with facts.

This season should be fine. It's our future that has me very concerned. 

Say what you want about there being "no chance" that Hurney is hired full term. But just wait and watch. JR will love having his guy back in the office. 

I'm calling it now and until the day we ink a new GM, Hurney has a very real chance at being our permanent GM.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By Icege · Posted

      WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.

      Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
