Please, without an experienced Cam Newton we would be drafting in the top 10. Cam is the x-factor.

Cam is not good enough to win without a good enough team around him. No one is. Not Brady, not Brees, not Manning, no one.

Hurney is a poor roster builder, even with Cam on the team.

You haven't got the first clue how this works.

You’re saying we would have the same record with any Joe Schmo at qb? Got it.

I came here to commment on just that. What people are really talking about are those contracts handed out after the lockout. That was all JR to show people he was committed to spending after gutting the roster in preparation for the lockout. 

JR was even quoted referencing it after people made claims he was cheap. He had  everything to do with it.

I'm saying he cut your favorite player. We  had our best season and went to the Super Bowl shortly after that.

Grow up and get over it.

Fyi, I didn’t mind him cutting Steve Smith. I did have a problem with how he did it and what we replaced him with.

So now, in the effort to make it seem like Hurney knows what he's doing, we've elevated Delhomme's play to "All Pro" level...

Good grief.

I don’t like revisionist history either but Jake had a good run.  Won’t bad mouth his time here. (Well, before the AZ game)

He also wanted to trade the pick that ended up being Cam so he can he can draft up to get Clausen but miraculously  couldn’t find a suitor.

Finding a QB is probably the hardest job to do far as building a team. Nobody new how bad clausen was gonna be BEFORE he was drafted and some mocks leading up to the draft had him going in the top 10. Consider hurney one of the guys who was sold him. Go into next he takes cam number one overall when a lot of other GMs wouldnt have done it. It swings back and forth.

The 31 other GMs who passed on him, including the ones whose teams were badly in need of a quarterback, can certainly be credited with knowing more than we did.

Hurney and Gettleman both made mistakes that probably cost us Super Bowl victories. I think there is a good chance that Hurney learned from his mistakes. He has certainly made at least 2 very good moves since he has been back this time. I am willing to give him a shot (with a short leash).

      Give Legette another season?

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
