Jackie Miles leaving the Panthers


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

The longtime equipment manager is apparently headed to New York where they just fired the guys that were part of the Eli memorabilia scandal.

Person says he may not be the only one.

Miles is remembered for refusing to give out the number 51 until the Panthers finally got the hint and retired it.

I think it's more a case of "find another job rather than wait around to see whether or not they keep me", and it's probably a common thought. 

I've heard it suggested that a number of resumes might be floating around Buffalo and East Rutherford this summer.

He had already retired and was replaced by his long time assistant. Saw that weeks ago when the rookies were getting fitted for helmets

Yeah, this should be old news that he was gone. I guess Person doesn’t watch panthers.com?

Except now he's "unretired" and going to work for the Giants.

He also famously never issued #1 until Cam was drafted. 

That was JR, said #1 belonged to the fans....Cam wanted #2, Clausen had it and wouldn't give it up, so he took 1 to more or less sum up the depth chart to Clausen

Yep. I doubt we see any big shake ups this offseason but I wouldn’t be surprised at all if the organization gets more or less gutted from top to bottom next year.

    • In all honesty, he should probably get that checked out. It might be (Arnold Schwarzenegger voice) "a tuuumaaa" 
    • Ah yes, my bad. It's easy to forget those handful of games Frank coached. LOL 
    • I've seen the comp a few times, and I feel there is a lot to it. Our situation is a lot like Kansas City was pre-Mahomes (without the HOF HC) Whether you like them or not, D&D are building something here.  They had a strong draft.  The team is slowly coming together, developing some identity, and has some decent blue chip parts.  Brown, Horn, McMillan, and a good OL situation that we should keep fortifying every year.  It's not much yet, but growing.    Bryce is in that Alex Smith spot.  A top draft pick, has never been overly impressive, but you can win games when he's safe with the ball.  You're not winning because of him - maybe once in a blue moon.  From time to time he's shown the ability to orchestrate some plays and lead drives.  I just don't see anything that is like - "oh snap, yeah don't let him go, he's ours".  He'll make a solid/good throw every now and again, but man, it is a struggle a lot of the time to watch.  Some terrible performances to speak of, heck he's already been benched once during year 2.      He should in no way preclude you from flirting with what else is out there.  This is not a marriage.  If you're in position (or trade range) for a guy you REALLY like come draft day, you shoot your shot. If we are in the draft process, and suddenly realize QB3-4 is a guy we really like, that's when you make a modest jump from like 16 to 11 or something like that.  Just like the Bills did for Allen, like the Chiefs did for Mahomes.  This is nothing magical that plants this franchise savior title on them, this is not some stupid trade-- it's an easy trade up to get a guy you like w/a big ceiling.  It's all player dependent and coaching/development driven.  If we don't like a QB, by all means fortify the front-7, get an awesome OLB or ILB prospect.   But we're on year 3, you kind of know what you're getting at this point.  Mostly sub-200 yard performances, low YPA, bad technique, poor mechanics, some decent stuff sprinkled in, but some bad turnover heavy ones that kill the team's momentum.  Again, run with him if there's no complete disaster that happens the remainder of the season, but don't close the door on something better just because of the investment or debatable performances.
