The Theory of The Marty Hurney IR Dump


SCP

Recommended Posts

For those who have been around awhile you might remember how, towards the end of his first run here, Marty Hurney became the king of dumping guys into IR when the season began to take a turn for the worse.  I always contended Marty did so as a preemptive excuse for when he faced the media at the end of the season.  This is my opinion only because I am a Hurney Hater so maybe it's just a missed opportunity for me.  But he has played the "Yea but we had 19 guys on IR" card before.  Now I still think we sneak into Foxboro and get a W tomorrow.  However, if we lose the next 3, which Is looking like a strong possibility, do not be surprised if Hurney and RR start playing the IR game.

It's just laughable Hurney is the GM again. The Panthers turn around from where Hurney left this organization to when he walked back in the door to our senile owners open arms says it all.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around how that's OK... 

We're kind of a joke of a franchise. SMH

    • Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.  
    • I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
    • I hate Marchand, but if he became a free agent.....
