Rhule says the plan is to win a Super Bowl with Cam Newton .. but because its something you don't want to hear he was probably only just saying that. He didn't really mean it.

Tepper said ideally the Panthers win a Super Bowl with Cam Newton .. but because its something you don't want to hear he was probably only just saying that. He didn't really mean it.

But, Tepper says its going to be a five-year re-build and you just eat that right up like it's straight from the mouth of Jesus don't you. There is no, he's probably just saying that, he didn't really mean it, on that re-build statement.

Get off this board non-fan.

Chuck come on man

Pass. 

In a weak OT class, Conklin will get too much money and doesn't move the needle for me. 

I'd rather roll with Moton/Little and if we are going to spend FA money on an OL splash player, give me Thuney or Scherff inside to make our young tackles better. 

I'm on board for adding Thuney if we make a splash in FA. He's probably #1 on my list right now.

Wrong. Wrong everywhere. Thuney is over-rated New England trash. He plays Guard .. it is much harder to find solid Tackle play.

Conklin was a First-Team All-Pro Tackle .. Thuney was an All-Pro Second Team Guard .. 

Give me Conklin all day. How underrated he is here doesn't make sense. He is an above average starting Tackle in the NFL and 26

Some of you should try to be as realistic as possible about addressing the OL in 2020. We can make progress through some obvious moves but spending on OL in free agency has bitten a number of teams in the ass the last few years. Us quite recently with the Paradis signing and obviously Kalil. What's likely to happen is in the short term we will pursue 2nd tier depth FA olinemen and possibly add one or two more from the draft. There will be improvement but getting the OL into shape for contention isn't going to happen in one offseason.

Hurney picked his franchise LT in last years draft.  

audrey hepburn deal with it GIF

Honestly, this scares me to death.  I can certainly see Hurney trying to justify NOT taking a blue chip tackle because of his trade up last year.  "Little just needs more time, what we need is another LB"...I can see it coming out of is mouth now.

You just scared the poo out of me. I can see it all happening now.

Well, it does take time for O-linemen to develop. That's just the way it is. 

If we get lucky and one is the BPA, then perhaps we'll make another move in the draft.

I don't see us really going after Conklin though, unless he comes cheap(ish)!

    • Hmmm... not a good start. Maybe I'm reading too much into this but after the guy who has been carrying your offense expresses frustration with his sudden lack of use and your HC just blows it off and confirms they haven't even talked, your PR team decides to use the guy who should be his backup as their poster boy hyping this week's game? Yikes. Hard not to interpret that as another slap in the face.
    • For some reason this is becoming a disturbing trend in the NFL. Teams are shutting down one part of their offense without causation from the opposition. Shane Steichen did it an overtime loss against Kansas City last week with the best back in the NFL. Pete Carroll allowed Chip Kelly to completely abandon the run game against Dallas the week before he was fired in Oakland as the OC. Matt Lafleur abandoned the pass instead choosing to rely on a bottled up run game when we clearly were having issues with the passing game. Big brain play callers some of them HCs are what the league wanted along with high powered offense and these dudes are making some of the dumbest situational calls I've ever seen. At least most of them are young and can learn, Canales included. I remember Norv Turner trying to throw the ball around the yard in a certain SuperBOWL, going in at halftime down 13-6. Emmitt Smith said get me the d*mn ball and took over in the 2nd half. Remember Kyle Shanahan in the 2nd half vs. the Patriots? This shite happens to the best and the brightest. We are just actively seeing it play out in real time just like Atlanta and Dallas fans before us.  Also, not saying Canales is going to become either of those, just begging/hoping for our sanity he gets his shite together if he's going to be our HC.
