The Ewing Theory

I think the reason this KB stuff hasn’t hit me as hard as some is because I believe in the Ewing theory. 

 

There is evidence that this could be the case with KB. Our one season without him, and everyone’s writing us off, was our best in franchise history.  

 

I shocked when I heard about the trade too, and I don’t like Hurney and I think firing Gettleman was the dumbest thing in the past 15 years. 

But maybe there is something to this. 

 

What say you, Ewing Theory?

I don't know about that, but I do remember what I heard a business owner tell a manager once.  You can fire who you please, but if you fire someone, you better have someone as good or better to replace him, or you will be joining him on the unemployment line.  

Would we have thought we had someone better in 2015 when KB went down?

If it gets Cam to distribute his targets to everyone on the team I'm down for it.

He already was....

Really don't think Kelvin is a top 20 WR talent imho.

top 30?

top 50?

either way, if your QB coach can't coach your QB to distribute the ball and your OC can't design schemes to get different players on the field the problem is your coaching staff, not provable commodities at QB and WR.

this team is absolutely dysfunctional from the top down.

The fact that Buffalo called us tells me there was no thought put into this other than a last second “sure” by the Hurney himself 

No. It means brandon beane knew that the panthers were never high on Benjamin and knew they’d drop him for cheap

      Ex-Panthers great Steve Smith sued under 'homewrecker law' for alleged affair.

      By NAS · Posted

      Smitty is a legendary footballer player but this has really damaged his reputation as a person. You don’t cheat on a woman who has been with you through everything and gave you children and especially not with another man’s wife. He doesn’t even have any remorse about it, acting like nothing happened.

      The Athletic's "Undrafted Player to Watch"

      By Panthers Rhule · Posted

      That's a big ass center! Is there any center in the NFL that weighs 320 lbs? Also, we drafted a center last season. Not sure this guy is a center even if he took reps at the senior bowl. Looks like a guard to me unless his build is better suited to a lesser weight. In a zone scheme centers need to be able to move quickly.

      The majority of NFL draft picks don't play all too many snaps lined up directly across from another NFL player, and I don't think many people really realize this. Unless you play a game against one of the 2-4 schools that are putting half their lineup into the NFL each season, most teams who have multiple draft picks, MIGHT only have 2-4 draft picks in any given season. Some skill positions get around 30 players drafted each year, other positions are in the teens to low 20's.  With at least a handful of them coming from non power conference schools too.  So the odds for any WR or CB to get too many games lined up directly against another future draft pick is pretty low. The better odds are that they get lined up against a future NFL player, i.e. a junior or senior WR getting lined up against a freshman or sophomore DB who will get drafted in a couple of years. Then if you take it one step further and look for players who actually play in the NFL and make a difference.   You're basically looking at players drafted in the first 3 rounds of the draft, so a little less than 100 players a year, spread out across all the positions and conferences (which in today's massive conferences, teams have even lower odds of player the teams with more NFL players than ever before).
