What is the one position on the field that as a front office and coaching staff should be the best and most important position on the field? QB. Thats supposed to be and has always been the #1 priority. Look at the top teams in the NFL most of the SB winners. Most of them drafted/traded for a franchise QB. And they have someone ready to go if something happens. This coaching staff pissed around for 8 years and brought in only 1 QB that is even capable of starting in this league. We shouldn't even be in this situation, and it pisses me off. Matt Moore is a question mark. But he shouldnt be. we should have someone that this team is confident in, and is ready to go now. This is one of the many reasons that Fox and Hurney are, and should be on their way out.

Agree in many ways. This is the same conversation we were all having the year Jake got hurt, Carr sucked ass and the season was lost. One of the biggest failures of Fox/Hurney era is to have a QB of the future on this roster - whether they accomplished that through the draft/trade/ or free agents signing. They have tried but failed miserably and now we have another lost season due to it. What also pisses me off is they were so down on Moore they put McCown on IR to bring in Feely. Not that McCown is the answer but they traded picks to bring him in this past offseason. Now he is healthy but cant play.

I agree with you 100% and have stated so in a different thread.

Carolina needs to do whatever it takes to trade up into the first round and draft that franchise QB. That QB will be the new face of the team and someone who we can rebuild around.

Tony Pike in the second round will be our guy. And I love your sig...EBHS Class of '06.

Agreed TOTALLY! I'm sick of this "game management" bullsh!t! Even when we do "manage" the game, we still get beat!!! I want a high scoring offense. I want touchdowns not lame "time of possession" stats.

I'll take an ugly win over a pretty loss any day of the week.

Whatever we do to win. Who cares. JUST WIN!

This is an argument people have been making since '06 but were subsequently steamrolled with:

"Jake took us to the Super Bowl"

"Jake has the best post season stats"

"Jake is a perfect leader and has a strong arm"

"its the run game fault"

"It's the o-line fault"

"It's the defense's fault"

"It's the coordinator's fault"

"Its the coach's fault"

I just wonder what has put an end to all the excuse making.

I'm sure I left out a bunch. Anyone who has posted or lurked around here for awhile could certainly come up with a more detailed list. Some of my favorites were the isolated stats that included wacky parameters defined by score, quarter, defined down and distance, and my favorite... "when Steve Smith was out..."

I agree that the man to take over for Jake should have already been on the team....like after the 2005 season. they tried with carr but that was a disaster...nother thing, i believe both those cock fks (fox and hurney) new Jakes arm was jacked up before it popped. they have been gambling for a long time and now they are losing which is costing us. I still think we have a good core of players but need improvement at mostly qb. Fox needs to roll out. I mean, plenty of other bungled deals have passed thru the panthers organization but what the hell was your thought process to say im going to give Jake that kind of money off that kind of performance...

We need a new attitude around here. 'it is what it is' needs to change to 'damn, we beat their ass again'...

      Texas A&M Nic Scourton vs. Purdue Nic Scourton

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      I’m honestly not trying to argue with you or talk bad about Scourton, I like him and I’ve watched all of his Purdue stuff/videos you linked previously. Just like I’ve watched all of Princely’s Florida stuff I’m only pointing out the weight thing because I’m excited about the idea of him being 255-260 and being more of a stand up edge here in Carolina like he was at Purdue versus at A&M And like you, I have a crap load of experience doing the whole cutting/weight/fitness thing and I know how crappy/sluggish I feel when I’m holding as little as an extra 8-10lbs of unnecessary weight. So for Scourton to come out and say he’s 255-260 now and feels good that’s exciting based on what he’s put on film at 280 and not feeling his best

      I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game. They've created a nearly unending list of "what ifs". Hell, every HS, college, and pro team out there has a long list of them. It's also a good reminder that there's no such thing as a routine major injury. Even though sports medicine has improved dramatically in recent decades, major injuries are still somewhat of a coin flip on how a guy is going to emerge from it.

      I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
