Breer believes the Panthers will make no changes

Panthers GM Marty Hurney has built a good rapport with new owner David Tepper, I’m told, and so he and coach Ron Rivera are very likely to get at least another year. I don’t think it’s out of the realm of possibility that someone could be added to football ops. Tepper’s shown a keen awareness in the area of football analytics, so maybe that’s where a hire is made.

MMQB for December 24

So, possible we go into next season, and a major retooling of the team, with Ron Rivera and Marty Hurney running the show.

Oy :eyeroll:

Hurney had a "good rapport" with Richardson too. Unfortunately, he stinks at building winning rosters. That didn't matter to Richardson, of course. The hope was that it mattered to Tepper, but here we are.

Likewise, Rivera's coaching deficiencies will probably go unchecked. Tepper apparently believes analytics will make Ron a better coach.  We'll see, but I'm not buying that as a "cure all".

Regardless, another year of Ron and Marty looks to be on the horizon.

 

 

 

 

 

So...who's excited for next season? :poison:

And, uh, Albert breer is to be believed...why?

Breer is the guy who took over the MMQB from Peter King. He was the source for a lot of the the inside info that came out regarding the team sale.

Granted, this could be his own speculation (hence the title "Greer believes") but he's got a pretty good track record of being right.

In this case though, I hope he's very wrong.

If this really happens, then I would lose all hope for the future. Tepper would be JR 2.0, we would waste yet another year with Rivera and Hurney, and Cam and Luke will have another prime year down the drain. I would legit not even tune in next year if Rivera and Hurney are still here.

Hope so too. Retaining those two knuckleheads would make me lose 100% confidence in Tepper.  Back to just hoping we luck into a good enough players at the right time for a SB instead of believing we can build a strong enough team for sustained success.

    • Actually I have always felt that using a qb to sneak was a huge mistake even for big guys. Do you remember when Cam sneaked the ball and got a helmet spear to the head and it wasn't even called. It is unnecessary and potentially dangerous. Everyone knows what you are going to do. Why not have a big guy or backup run the ball who is disposable? Yeah they know what is coming if you bring in a big guy. Like they don't if you keep the QB in...... Actually there are many more reasons not to sneak the ball with the qb versus using something else like New Orleans did who could still run or pass.
    • you want me to provide evidence of his jump balls? Or bailing the pocket?  I don't think either of those claims requires me to show you evidence.  What do you want evidence of exactly?  never did I mention downfield throws.  I said, he gets blind to play at the lines because of his size (the quick stuff).  There are literally plays I don't have time to search for but have been highlighted on QB school where there is just no way he can see the options on certain plays even if wide open (talking behind and around the line of scrimmage).   Line too close paired with the receiving  option too close.  And the stat I referenced (which you can find on next gen stats) was he is below average at and behind the line of scrimmage....which I'm sure his size/vision plays a role in the why. I have an agenda? Cool.  Then so do you.  and again, Bryce's cherry picked best play (which isn't how anything works).....still leaves him on the low end of production.  I'm not overly bashing Bryce.  I just acknowledge, most signs point to him having a low ceiling.  And in the big picture, that's not the direction you want to go.  He is our QB for now.  I hope he improves.  Which in turn would allow our O and others to develop.   But to me, there isn't much of an argument that Bryce Young is anything but short term solution.   
    • Again where is the evidence. You keep saying it but honestly you have shown no evidence. Unless you know what he was supposed to do and then what he did do, you don't know anything about his intentions and or forced changes due to height. His completion percentage for passes from 1 to 10 yards was only slightly lower than his best percentage which was 10 to 20 yards passing.  Not enough of a difference to be significantly different.  Truth is you have an agenda that you try to justify despite any evidence to the contrary. Many of us felt the same way but have allowed his actual play to inform our opinion. I still would have picked Stroud over Bryce but I am willing to keep an open mind and see what is there instead of filtering everything through my biases and already polarized opinions.
