Current narrative from the organization is that Hurney is an interim GM. 

However, no one has come out and said he is not in the running for the permanent job, and Hurney would not rule that out in the press conference. Narratives can change. A simple "He did so well as interim GM that he was clearly the best candidate" is all it would take. 

So what is your gut telling you right now. Is Hurney truly an interim GM with an expiration date or is the permanent GM job his to lose?

If we win the super bowl, he can stay.. anything less, he needs to go. I can deal with a few years of Hurney's yes man bullshit as long as we have a trophy beforehand.But Jerry will probably give him a lifetime contract after this season regardless.

I'm not sure what JR wants but I have a feeling that Hurney will be temporary.
If you look at this from Hurney's standpoint... he gets to reclaim a job that he was fired from and hopefully rewrite the narrative in a positive way (hopefully). It's liken to many failing their first time as HC but then work their way back to a HC job and surprise everyone with success. Plus he gets to help an old friend (JR) with running it a little less aggressive than DG and bring that "family" feel back.
God I hope it all works out well for our team. I feel this will turn out really well for the Panthers or kill any chance for a long top tier title run for a LONG time... don't see it being just "Okay"...

I'm really surprised I haven't seen #NotMyGM

Nope. He's going to be the new Danny Morrison, not the GM in the future. 

Possible, but entirely different skill set in which Hurney has zero experience. He doesn't strike me as a particularly organized person capable of managing many projects at once in a highly political environment. Nice guy, sure, but that will only get you so far.

GMs manage multiple projects at once. Business owners also do. He's been both of those. He's plenty capable of doing the engagement part that Mr Morrison did. He's got the relationship with the owner. 

Hurney as Pres isn't based on any info - I'm just spitballing. My point, however, is if he "does well" this year then sure maybe he gets to stay on, but I'll bet my car it won't be as the GM.

Note: this bet applies for my Tahoe or my minivan (minivan is DOPE)

I am going to lobby for you to be President. 

 

No one knows what is going to happen with Hurney except Richardson. Just like no one knew Gettleman would be fired but Richardson. It is very possible he is the permanent GM. As likely as any other candidate. I have no doubt about that.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.

      "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
