What’s coming next

I just want to take the time and warn you guys of what is coming in the next couple weeks. You actually saw a little bit of it today. 
 

This team is going to rally to win at least 3 of the 5 remaining games (most likely Washington, Atlanta, and against a rested New Orleans team). It honestly wouldn’t shock me to see them take down Seattle as well with some fluke luck and due to them having to travel east for a 1:00 game). 
 

Thie will create some murmurs in the fan base about how this is evidence that John Fox (err, Ron Rivera) is a good coach who had a team still fighting when everything was lost and how he rallied the squad to overcome numerous injuries.   Some of these people will argue that if we had a healthy Cam Newton, we’d be a playoff team and that this roster is talented enough to run it back one more year. 
 

Some guys are going to make some plays (like Bruce Irvin, Tre Boston, and hell, Donte Moncrief will probably catch a crucial td pass late in a game) and these same idiots are going to praise Hurney for his ability to bring in top talent. 
 

Our draft pick placement is going to plummet from 10-12 to 19-21 all in the name of momentum for next year. 
 

Im begging you guys, don’t fall for this. Take this from those of us who have sat through this same movie since 2006 (sans a few seasons). 

I agree with all of this.

Not that it matters because my real name is not David Tepper.

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
