Panthers Job More Attractive Than Packers - CBS Sports


Varking

Recommended Posts

Wouldn't be shocking. The Packers franchise is definitely far more prestigious than the Panthers, but I agree with a lot of the points they made as to why a lot of coaches would see Carolina > GB. It's also worth noting that the Packers fired their LB coach today for posting a tweet that seemed to take a shot at Rodgers' leadership abilities. Despite the media takes on the two, a lot of coaches may see Cam as the more coachable QB. Rodgers said all the right things about McCarthy after he was fired but there was way too much smoke about a rift between those two for there not to be at least some fire there.

huh? if a superbowl in the next 4 years isn't a requirement, why the hell fire rivera? 

also, develop cam newton? 

what more is there to develop? 

 

They need to develop the narrative that it's Cam's fault the Panthers suck before they even get a new head coach

yes, next

What’s holding him back? First it was Shula so we got Norv then lack of weapons and we have an all world rb and fast wideouts  now it’s ron. So under what scenario would we win with cam?

I like the line, "What we're getting for three hours on Sunday should be better than this,".  Sums up the situation.  And the blank slate situation is rare and should attract a group of coaches we'd probably never get with the previous owner.

What's fuged up is the first name that came to mind that would be perfect here is Josh McDaniels. Then, I remembered the screw job with the Colts and he's tied down to that franchise. And then i was like fug, you know who would be better? fuging Frank Reich. Returning home to his first starting position. Not happening now though. Why aren't we going after the Oklahoma guy? fug Kliff Kingsbury.

Is Cam a better QB than Flacco, Dilfer, Brad Johnson, Hostetler or Eli?

Hosteller was Nick Foles before Nick Foles. He didn't play that entire season and makes you wonder just how bad the Giants would have stomped the Bills with Simms at QB. Probably be like the other years. NFC East outside of the Cardinals were beast 30 years ago. All those fans living in the past. Even Eagles fans this year. GOING ON AND ON ABOUT LAST YEAR

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
