No country for old men and JAGS


Jmac

Recommended Posts

This team is comprised of older players on their way out  and avg/below avg talent. Previous management always diluted themselves into thinking they could squeeze one more year out of a vet, or a JAG is better then he has proven to be.

They have a handful of talented young players that should now be the building blocks of a new team and new philosophy. Status quo doesn't work and hasn't worked....just look at the  results of the 2018 season.

The time has come to do what needs TO BE DONE and move forward. Twenty plus years of mediocrity has taken it's toll on this fan base.

This team is full of soft Gettleman players who were brought in for no other reason than they were "economically sensible."

None of them buy into this team's identity, it's toughness, pride, or aggression, and though its unlikely you keep the GM in a total rebuild, it says something that the hungriest players on the field are the Hurndog's guys, Moore and Jackson most noticeably.

For guys like mike Adams, keep pounding is just this team's hashtag. The bottom falling out like this is completely uncharacteristic of a traditional panthers team. Even on poor teams that simply didn't have the talent, Steve Smith was still starting fights in meaningless Tampa December games to stick up for jimmy Clausen.

 

Teams with any semblence of physicality don't just implode like this, but the panthers are full of "pro's pro" guys, guys who are here to jog as Jarvis Landry sprints down the field and trot to the sideline with an "oh well" glare plastered on their face

This team's moto is "keep Pounding"......they talk the talk, but don't walk the walk this season. Fold like a cheap suit when things go south. Infuse youth and talented younger vets to kick start this team. Move on from the old vets and the mediocre players surrounding the core of this team.

Quit making Tepper into something he isnt. I’ll believe it when I see it. Right now, it’s looking like Jerry has Tepper by the balls and still making decisions here in Charlotte. 

Like Jerry’s statue, bet there’s some things in the contract that has Jerry making decisions for the next 10 yrs in order to Tepper to buy this team.

what lol

 No one would drop 2.5 billion dollars on anything to have someone else run the show. That is ridiculous. T didn't become a billionaire by being a fool.

Right.....like changing the midfield logo, bringing in Reid, and building a new practice facility that will put an end to Wofford training camps. Those were all Richardson decisions.

Think a little

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
