Marty Hurney will meet with league on Friday

Panthers interim general manger Marty Hurney, on paid administrative leave while the NFL investigates a claim of harassment by his ex-wife, will meet with the league on Friday. Former New York City prosecutor Lisa Friel, who handles such issues for the league, has been assigned the case. Hurney's ex-wife has withdrawn the complaint, but the league still is conducting its own investigation. Hurney is one of four candidates being considered for the fulltime GM job.

Seriously the league needs to fast track this. Considering the allegations, the situation and the relationship this should be easy to figure out. We need a GM now him or someone else. The quicker they wrap this up the faster we get a GM.

The league only has to wrap this up quickly if you want to hire Hurney.

His being under investigation doesn't stop the Panthers from naming somebody else the GM.

Correct but let's all be honest, They're going to hire Hurney if they can get away with it. So for the Panthers sake and having a good draft, hopefully this is quick.

I wonder if this meeting has anything to do with the hire.  

What if the league speaks with him and believes that the EX is only causing fake news issues and drop the case and he is made permanent GM contrary to what Jason C. reported.

I fully expect that to happen because LaCanfra is a hack. The moment he said we were getting an outside GM it was set in stone it would be Hurney.

    • I must apologize, my sarcasm at times doesnt translate well in text form lol. At this point I would welcome us signing him, Trey Lance, trading for Jameis Winston, asking about Deshaun Watson and playing phone tag with Tom Brady before I ever fully entertain a season of Bryce Young being the defacto Starting Quarterback of the Panthers.

    • We had a QB who could do that and its the last time we went to the Super Bowl and the only time we had an MVP. Once he lost his ability to do that he was out of the league. To filter out insignificant stats I will only look at QBs who have played in 10 or more games this year. There are 28 qualifying QBs. Bryce is 25th in Air Yards per Attempt at 6.4. Only Joe Flacco, Cam Ward, and Dillon Gabriel are worse (6.0, 5.8, 5.1). Trevor Lawrence, Patrick Mahomes, and CJ Stroud are the median QBs at 7.1. Drake Maye and Sam Darnold lead the league at 8.7. Bryce is 18th in the league for passes that travel 30+ yards at 12. The median is Caleb Williams at 15. The league leader is Matthew Stafford with 26. With passes that travel 40+ yards, Bryce is tied with three others at 21st in the league with 3. Only Jacoby Brissett, Cam Ward, Joe Flacco, and Dillon Gabriel are worse. The median is a three-way tie with Drake Maye, Trevor Lawrence, and Baker Mayfield with 6. The league leader is Sam Darnold with 12. Having the ability to complete passes down the field (not YAC) stretches the defense and makes them account for more ground. It keeps players out of the box and keeps formations in nickel or dime, less line backers for your RBs to worry about. Bryce is why we have 2 losses against the Saints. If he had the outright ability to sling the football down field we beat the easily, but he doesn't. So they crowded the box and our 2 starting caliber RBs with our top ~10 Oline couldn't carry the offense to a win on their own. The limitations of the offense fall squarely on Bryce.
