...doesn’t necessarily go through Pittsburgh or NE.  While those teams have experienced mgmt coming available at seasons end, another has a HOFer who could come in tomorrow.  This person has led his team to the second best record in the last 20 years next to NE and without Brady.  His name.....Ozzie Newsome.  He’s still only 61 but was pushed aside by an assistant that the Ravens didn’t want to lose .  He apparently is still on the payroll without a title but I could not imagine them holding him back if he wanted to leave.  He has thought outside the box for decades with compensatory picks, hiring a ST coach with no OC experience, and last year trading back into the first round to take a QB that everyone else wanted to change positions.  Even if you could only get him as a consultant, keeping him through the hiring process and evaluation of Cam could set the Panthers on the right path for years. A call could sure do no harm.

For which job? Coach or Asst GM?

He retired from Baltimore and hasn't sought other jobs it seems. Why would he leave Baltimore and come south?  Weather? City? Tepper.?

I agree right now the Ravens look like a team to emulate. John Harbaugh honestly seems like the perfect mix of old school and analytics that Tepper is looking for. If we can get some Ravens influence in here that would be great.

      Robert Hunt Practice Window Activated

      By MHS831 · Posted

      It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.

      Chad ‘Ochstradamus’ Johnson and Shannon Sharpe on Panthers

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.

      I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
