Panthers Will Begin Conducting GM Interviews This Week

Who will be conducting the interviews, Hurney?

Seriously. This makes no sense at all without new ownership in place.

Honestly, I'll be surprised if this is anything other than JR working the puppet strings from behind the curtain and giving Hurney a contract that will see him retire well. I just hope new ownership will come in and tear that contract up, write him a check, and then conduct a real GM search.

Jimmy Raye III satisfies the Rooney Rule, and I’ve never heard his name pop up as a potential GM candidate, ever, so I’m bracing for the inevitable. 

He was a GM candidate for the Texans. 

I am assuming it is Hurneys job to lose but let’s see how this goes. We were all shocked when Shula was let go. Miracles do happen.

Pretty sure Tina Becker is the one who will be making the decision on next GM, and it's very possible she doesn't stick with Hurney. Atleast I'm hoping she doesn't. We'll see what happens.

I just wonder if it's actually her decision or if JR is still working those puppet strings. If she wants a future as an executive in the NFL, she won't hire Marty Hurney. No one else gave Hurney so much as a glance when we finally fired him. Just like Mike Shula.

    • 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
