6-10 and the worst secondary in the NFL in 2016. 

how'd that turn out? 

Are you stuck in last year? Same corners are on a top 5 defense and a 11-4 team. Norman looks old and slow and takes more penalties than anyone. Takes more than 16 games to develop.

We're blitzing like crazy because we have to. Our secondary is trash.

yeah thanks to our godly GM who let our best corner walk, drafted 3 straight corners in the draft claiming they were all BPA, including Sanchez who's no longer on the team, while also signing Brandon Boykin who was supposed to be our nickle fill in but let him walk a few weeks later and then lets Bene Benwikere go after giving up 300 yards to Julio just to save face instead of admitting he completely fuged up our secondary, oh yeah, and also letting Tre Boston go who was a great depth player b/c of course, our secondary wasn't a cause for concern to begin with.

lolll the greatness that was DG!

The fact that there are Panthers fans that can find a perceived "win" in touting DG's positives while overlooking the negatives when we're heading into the playoffs with Devin Funchess and a crew of glorified waterboys at WR while the Saints are throttling teams with Ted Ginn who DG let walk for a few million a year tells you all you need to know about the Panthers fanbase.

Sure. Ginn is the reason Saints har killing it on O. Yep. 

Gettleman made som huge mistakes. Kalil and the handling of Norman ( not letting him go, but the handling ) but to say Ginn is some mighty force is stupid. Had Byrd not been unluckey with his arm he would have done the same as Ginn if not more.

2 injuries and Funchess....

Who knows what Samuel would have done and Byrd was doing well. KB was a first round pick so he was trying....wouldn't even matter if we drafted Hunter Henry instead of that backup DT. That is truly DG's biggest mistake right there.

Agree

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
