how can anyone look at this team and say Hurney has done a great job?

How can anyone ask this question after knowing what transpired this year?

 I’m not a Hurney lover but everything went wrong for us this year and everyone thought we looked fantastic on paper before the season started and the injuries started racking up. 

Plenty of Hurney guys on this team that aren’t injured and are playing horribly. Just look at his track record and how the Panthers are the only team who wanted him.

Yeah, but are they playing horribly because they’re bad or because of the other injuries/this team completely collapsed? 
 

I’m in the boat that thinks we should part ways from Hurney but I think there’s other reasons this team is bad and it doesn’t all fall on Hurney.

I guess what I’m trying to say is this is a stupid thread and is unfair to say, “look at how bad this team is!” when it’s the last game of the season, we’re 5-10, and we’re not playing for anything. Plus, we’re playing against a team who is far superior than us this year. 

All of which points to a crappy team that hurney has put together.

Apparently David Tepper has.

 

 

 

 

Maybe his 1 step backwards 2 steps forward comment means he'll keep Marty and let him run is onto the ground again for the #1 pick so we can draft Lawerence.

 

 

 

Then we'll hear from some more panthers fans who will jump on the bandwagon telling us how the new successful team's credit is die to Hurney,because he drafted Trevor Lawerence at #1

Muh first round picks! Don't you know to build a great team all you need is to make great first round picks? The other rounds are a crapshoot and who cares about UDFA even though that's where Norwell was picked up at. Don't worry about shoring up the rest of the roster with depth none of that matters.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
