Why Rob Ryan isn't the Panthers coach

I’m not sure the blame falls on Hurney either, but he enforced it. Seems like he assessed Ryan and said your not fit to even talk to Richardson. Richardson didn’t say this about Ryan but if reports are true Hurney did. Do I want that mentality still lingering around? 

Me personally I think this organization needs a fresh start and a new set of eyes to wash away the tarnished old guard.

You don't think richardson specifically said it? If your boss,  who didn't even bother for a contract with you asked/ told you to do something and you are making millions you don't think you'd "enforce it"?

Maybe hurney won't be so bad when he's not forced to be a yes man.

If you were a yes man and you get a new boss,do you stop being a yes man? Not likely.

Do I think different types of people treat you differently?  100% yes. How do you know how many times hurney had a good idea and was shot down? Maybe if an owner actually allows him to do the job he won't be half bad.

The scouts who had to talk him out of trading a future first for Jimmy Clausen and/or thinking that Brad Kaaya was the backup QB of the future might feel differently.

Jerry Richardson had no involvement in those events.

In fairness, kaaya is better than any back up we have now.

Neither are our current back ups,  what's your point? 

That Marty hasn't proven anything yet.

He signed some guys and made some moves that fans like. Cool. That same thing happened before every losing season he presided over in his first tenure.

I'm gonna need something more than that before I'll anoint him as being a new man.

hmm cuz his defense in New Orleans sucked! And we were greatful!! I thought the rustic trailer park look was great for the NFL.. but his defense truly sucked! 

Well, for the last two years he was here you're absolutely right. But in 2013 we were 4th in yards and points and actually won a playoff game (on the road) instead of going 1-and-done at home despite having the #2 seed, a bye, and the #2 ranked defense in yards and points. Wonder who that was...

:thinking:

    • Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.  
    • I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us. 
    • From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
