Bill Polian has openly hated the Panthers since he was fired. this is like asking Steve Smith for his opinion of Dave Gettleman. many people forget Bill Polian was our GM back in the day and was fired.

and that's a white man saying that. imagine being one of the demographics JR targeted with his bullshit.

You mean like Steve Smith and Julius Peppers? How about Thomas Davis? Cam Newton? There is one unsubstantiated rumor that JR said/did something uncouth to a minority. Maybe I'm out of the loop but I read the SI exposé. The race issue didnt sound nearly as credible as the sexual harassment allegations.

I'm all for letting the pervert have it for his treatment of women in the workplace and abusing his authority in that way but let's not act like the man was a racist. That's embarrassingly misleading at this point.

I never was a big fan of polian. In six Superbowl appearances he comes away with one ring. There may be validity to what he says but he rubs me as a salty old man

Lucked into Peyton as well and never was able to build a complete team around him.

Richardson had similar personality conflicts with Polian and Gettleman alike.

Both of them did business like "northerners", Polian occasionally like a psycho (look up the chair throwing incident) and it never sat well with Richardson.

Of course, Polian and Gettleman both have Super Bowl rings as executives.  Unless we win this year's Super Bowl, Richardson never will.

    • No, you're right. It doesn't mean you can't call out his flaws and poor play. But it also doesn't mean you can't admit when he plays well and shows improvement. Not you personally, just in general I mean.
    • I will say, I do think there's a version of Bryce that could be really successful as a high-volume passer in a spread-based offense built around quick throws and timing-based intermediate throws with deeper throws schemed up around them. I actually think the power run based offense we're running is a poor fit for Bryce as it requires him to play under center far more often. It's a very traditional offensive approach whereas I think a scheme that spreads defenses out and lets Bryce distribute the ball quickly with anticipation and accuracy is the sweet spot for him. The key, of course, is to find a way to run the ball efficiently out of those formations. Our personnel right now (backs and OL) aren't good fits for that style of offense and I'm not sure it's a scheme Dave Canales favors very much either.
    • I root for him, and I hope for the best, as does essentially everyone. But that doesn’t mean you can’t call out flaws and bad plays. And that’s what a lot of people get wrong.  I hope I’m wrong and that he continues to improve a lot, I just doubt it. But I’ve been wrong before
