One thing I really appreciate about this team...

On both offense and defense, we have a ton of people getting involved in plays rather than just a few. On defense we have 12 players credited with at least 0.5 sacks and 16 players with at least one QB hit. Five players have interceptions, 8 players have at least 20 tackles, and 15 have at least 10.


On offense, our receiving game is incredibly well balanced. We’re spreading the ball around to where it needs to go. Moore, McCaffrey, Samuel, and Olsen all have over 270 yards receiving and a TD. Say what you will about the rushing game, but nobody is being force-fed in the receiving game. We’re hitting the open guy, whoever it is.

Thank you Ron And Hurney

McCaffrey is the star in our offense but just like with TB you shut him down you just allow the WRs to feast. We are a healthy LT away from posting 37 points a game with a defense who can cause turnovers. Both the Panthers and NO are scary good and we are in the same division.

Marty Hurney is the most unjustly maligned and underrated executive in the history of the NFL.

All the guy does is draft all pros, and people complain because he drafted Amini Silatolu in the 2nd round a decade ago, as if other general managers never draft busts in the mid rounds.

And is Hurney ever going to get credit for signing Kyle Allen as an UDFA.  Gettleman sure did get a lot of credit for Andew Norwell.

 

 

 

Hurney aside whiffing on Grier has been nothing short of amazing since his return

Will Grier has never thrown a pass in the NFL and people are already declaring him a bust, even though he looked roughly the same as Kyle Allen in preseason.  He's a late third round compensatory pick, closer to a fourth round pick.  The track record of anyone hitting on a QB in the late 3rd to 4th round is 10% at best, and we haven't even seen Grier throw a pass.

People would rather talk about Hurney missing on Grier than signing Kyle Allen as an undrafted free agent, which might have saved this franchise (after he saved the franchise a decade ago drafting Cam Newton and Luke).  Not even to mention Brian Burns, Bruce Irvin, etc, and all the other brilliant moves.

We should be giving him an extension, even if we fire Ron Rivera.

 

 

Before the Arizona game they used Allen as an example of Hurney not having a plan if Cam got hurt.

This is the huddle, either Cam vs Allen or Boobs. I give each a 50/50 shot

In the time I have been posting and reading this forum, approximately 472% of the threads I’ve seen have devolved into Cam/Kyle debates. I don’t recall anyone mentioning boobs, but for the record, I’m a big fan.

    • And perhaps to a lesser degree, Coker, Umanmielen, Ransom, & Smith-Wade. 
    • I'm OK with it. I think it's a little high considering his injury history and weight issues, but Coker seems to be a solid kid that has an understanding of what it takes to be a pro, and I believe that they believe that he did enough last season to show that he's ready to be a consistent force within the offense. Let's go, Coker, be all that everyone, including yourself, knows that you can be!
    • https://www.si.com/nfl/panthers/onsi/xavier-legette-s-offseason-focus-could-help-unlock-panthers-wr I am going to be totally honest here: If I had to bet Xavier Legette would pass or fail--well, maybe catch on or drop (pun obviously intended), my money--err, pie in Zod's coming Huddle wagering system😅), I would pick the latter based upon what I've seen the last couple of years. But, like the writer, Preston Palm✋🏽, says, I'm going to be optimistic. Why not? It's the time of year for it, and I've told y'all before that through my fully grown skepticism, I haven't completely given up on X. I'm rooting for the kid.  X knows he can't have another year like the last, he said it himself: "My main thing is just to have a better year. I can't have another year like last year, I can't do that." He knows what's on the line. He's not dumb, however much some of you want to equate being country, or, more specifically, "talking country," with being dumb (which is kind of dumb in itself, but I digress...). X knows what's on the line, very clearly. As such, he has made some changes according to Palm ✋🏽, "Legette has looked noticeably thinner at minicamp this year and has reportedly dropped 7-9 pounds, which should alleviate some pressure on his hamstrings and not force as much impact on them every route he runs." You see, part of X's problem the last couple of seasons were his hamstrings, and now, he's focused on "bulletproofing" his hammies.  But of course X's journey hasn't just been about physical misfortunes and injuries, he knows that he hasn't displayed the best football, so he's embracing the pressure to perform, and likens it to what he did at USC (the southern version *sarcasm present*) during his time there. He exploded on the scene during his senior year, so hopefully he'll do something similar in year three of the NFL. Though we've recently seen some receivers breakout sooner, many receiver still don't break out until their third season due to the complexity of NFL route trees and such. I've never been an X hater, but I'm a realist. Still, I'm looking for X to make the jump. That would be the best for all involved.
