Or demoting Washington earlier last year. Or signing last years FAs. Or resigning an injured Olsen. Maybe we should do a GoT one where there is a 'your killed of this show' list combined with the Avengers time stone 'to fix past mistakes and make a better future' list?

 Sign Whitworth instead of Turnstilalil.

2012 Draft

 Don’t trade a 2013 3rd round pick for Joe Adams. When that pick could/would have been Terron Armstead. Or Keenan Allen. 

 2012-13 off-season

Hire Norv Turner(who was just fired as HC in SD) instead of Shula. He went to CLE as OC. Hard to believe we couldn’t provide a better opportunity than the Browns.

Yes, yes, and yes!

I was floored when Igo didn't mention pat-a-cake Matt's contract as his #1 mistake.

Also, more damning than releasing Smitty, IMO, was the whole Bell, Chandler debacle. 

EDIT: pretty much anything we've done at tackle since Gross retired (Williams and Moton excluded) has been a shitshow!

Michael Oher did fine. So did Moton before he was stupidly replaced by Frank Clark.

Edit: Chris Clark (dammit)

Releasing Smitty wasn't a huge mistake. We went to the playoffs, then the super bowl without him. 

He's my all time favorite player, but it wasn't a bad move. The bad move was trying to get Benjamin to replace him. Should have drafted Allen Robinson instead. 

We didn't go to the playoffs/SB just because we shipped off Steve Smith.

Did any of you guys watch Panthers football before 2015 or what? When it was Steve and Cam, our defense was essentially swiss cheese more often than not. Finally the defense began to come into their own after he left. Certainly you could argue offensively there was some kind of difference, but to just sidestep the fact that our defense made a huge leap is just being disingenuous.

And let's just be absolutely brutally honest here. What did we do at WR after Steve left? We drafted two busts early, and the best deep threat we fielded was a journeyman WR with suspect hands in Ted Ginn who saw a career resurgence with Cam Newton.

Steve Smith's final season with this team was in 2013. It's 2019 and we just now have a WR in DJ Moore who looks like he has similar playmaking ability.

I stand corrected. Oher was solid on the left. He slipped my mind. G-man signed him to a bargain, 2 year $7 million contract to. One of his best moves. FWIW, the 1 year (after Gross retired) that we had a solid LT, we went to the SB.

      Gameday Thread Steelers

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      Steelers fans will take over the Stadium and city   It will be unbearable  worse for me, on the west coast, resigned to the nfl network and you know it will be a steelers broadcast team.    It was ungodly bad with sheduer 2 weeks ago  Last game, tried listening  on panthers radio and  watching  on espn live last week but the delay between the 2 drove me nuts  so as bad as they were playing, found something else to do

      I mean I don't have a personal axe to grind with any human on the Panthers roster.  I know AT shouldn't be dominating the slot. The fact he is....is because we have a horrific front office/management.   I can part with any player.   The goal is a winning team.   the root of the AT ranting, is really just looking out for BY (people like to call me BY hater though).  A QB who was basically screwed from day 1 when we got drafted here.  I went hard at Carolina then too for setting him up to fail. Because it was obvious from the jump the setup was failure by design.  Which was true.   I said Frank bad zero sense with BY.  Miles Sandes made double zero sense.  The players they got in FA made zero sense.     Either you build a BY O.....or you move on from BY.  I have said I am cool either way.  We are in no man's land and have been there since they day we drafted him.

      It's the QB school guy mentality. Thielen is a shitty #1 option so aaarrrrggghhhh FUUUUUUUUUG HIM!!! This dude SUCKS!!! Yeah, Thielen should no longer be a #1 option at this stage in his career. He honestly shouldn't be a starter at this point in his career. But it's not an Adam Thielen issue that we've had to ask him to do that.
