Vernon Butler A Healthy Scratch For 2nd Consecutive Week

I don’t think it’s effort at all. Remember him almost hurting his knee either in preseason or early in the season when he was running after a play 15 yards downfield and hurdled a player and landed awkwardly? If he was lolly gagging all over there’d be multiple threads on it. He’s gotten penalties for going a little extra. His issues are either overrated talent and/or coaching not making him better. I’m honestly not sure which it is and we won’t know until he’s on another team. I’m getting less impressed every game with our coaching and Butler’s on his 3rd DC in three years.

Nope, wrong

Lol. Blaming Gettleman is comical. Did Gettleman decide not to challenge Golloday clearly being out of bounds on third down giving Detroit 4 or even 7 points that they shouldn’t have had? Did Gettleman cost us 5 points like Ganope in the same game? Did Gettleman cause us to get barely any points when we’re dominating Seattle and couldn’t score in the red zone and then miss a potential game winning FG again? Did Gettleman fumble (wasn’t even his pick) and throw bad passes to lose to Washington? Did Gettleman miss a wide open Samuel (his pick) and throw 4 INTs?

What can’t I understand? That Hunter Henry missing this year with an ACL tear and being an OK TE wouldn’t have done anything this year?

If you actually blame Gettleman for our failures this year, you are so out of touch with reality it’s not even funny. Gettleman isn’t here anymore and Vernon Butler being inactive has 0 to do with being 6-6. 

Gettleman has fuged this team over from a talent standpoint for the next few years (barring miracles) his entire tenure here, he never drafted/developed a competent DE, never took importance in finding Greg’s replacement, taking fliers on multiple 1st round selections that are either healthy game day scratches, or ineffective starters (Shaq is literally just there) replacing this team’s greatest WR with a career journeyman (Benjamin) and a fugton of other shitty moves.

Gettleman rode the coattails of Hurney’s picks/signings and now that they’re effectively out of their primes (old) you get the shitshow that we witness on Sundays.

Old fang-less players collecting a check.

Yep, that was all Gettleman’s fault, lol. CMC and Samuel great. Donte who everyone thinks is going to be a CB1 who gave up the huge PI last week as well, not so great.

You guys keep thinking this is all Gettleman’s fault. That’ll make you feel better. 

Yes it was.. and Donte is much further along as a complete CB than Bradberry/Worley/Sanchez/Elder combined lol.

At this point, I don’t trust Ron’s judgement or ability to improve players at all. I’d give credit more to Luke than Ron for any success. It’s great to dump on Butler but would it really surprise you if he played better under a better coach? We’ve given up 17 at halftime because Luke made a great play and a wide open WR dropped a TD (same one who fumbled). We haven’t stopped them at all. 

I don't think this is an either/or thing. I think it's both. Butler is trash and so is Ron.

2016 was a bad draft overall outside of top 5 but my God our picks were just unaccepatable. One contributor from the entire draft and he's right now just an average starter who could easily be replaced (say if we get Josh in FA next year if Skins cut him and then he and Donte start...). DG had some great later round picks (KK, Turner, Williams, Moton) but man his first rounds were trash until McC. Star was fine but I expected better from a top 15 pick.

the nail in the coffin...draft of desperation

    • Good read and stuff under it is not bad either. https://www.yahoo.com/sports/article/panthers-cb-jaycee-horn-says-184519429.html
    • While I'd love to add him, it just doesn't make sense for where we are at in our re-build right now. The only teams who should be interested are those who have a very legitimate shot at winning the SB this season, as any team who makes the trade is going to be mortgaging their future to make the move. Teams who make these kinds of trades and then give them the massive contract, in the hopes that it will expedite their path to contention, ALWAYS ends up backfiring because they have to give up the 1st round picks that are then needed to help build out the rest of the roster after eating up such a significant chunk of the cap on the new contract. There is no way the Cowboys trade him for anything less than 2 future 1st rounders (and probably more), plus we'll have to make him the highest paid non QB in league history.  Not to mention that it would then have made the Scourton and/or Princely picks a bit of a waste, as those 2nd and 3rd round picks would have been better off used on a ILB or DB
    • Like his approach to pre season that's ro get them out there and play together for a few plays and right about the night before and morning before.  Maybe we can come out the gate on fire I can smell the smoke from here!!   Go Panthers
