‘We need more Panthers players to step up.’


Gazi

Recommended Posts

Why should Panther players (human beings) be any different from anyone else?  This is a problem that we should all address.  When an authority figure, who we are supposed to respect, goes off the ranch, everyone, not just sports stars, should be upset.

To any and all of our players who might be lurking we say GET LOUD. We’ve always had your back on this. 

What does "GET LOUD" imply?

How does it manifest itself in day-to-day behaviour?

When it's all said and done, we'll come out of this with a better country.

Can we be better people, though, and see that it doesn't all go for naught?

Most people just don’t care.  They are busy living their “American Dream”.  But who needs to care are the cops.  This country has been moving in the right direction over the last decade but it seems the cops did not get the memo.

Seeing is believing and phone cameras have helped and hindered, but in these cases, there is no walking away from the shock of seeing someone who has authority over you blatantly violate the law he is there to uphold.  How to best crack the egg and fix these things will not be an easy fix with the bureaucracies that exist.  The country is overall a good place, but has not taken seriously the things it should have.  You cannot have a civil society with law enforcers being law breakers.  Just as all cops are not horrible, so goes with the rioters.  You cannot broad brush either group or you end up nowhere.  The hard part is the weeding out of individuals, or even entire staffs of law enforcement if they have been complicit.  It will be a long process.

The minority community has the ears of the country at this point, what will they do with it?  I hope something good.  This might even be a harder nut to crack.  Once you have the attention of those who need to hear you, stepping up with being part of the process of fixing these issues is next on the agenda.  Not sure I trust any DC politician to help the process at all.  They live from one election to the other making promises, only to keep power and not much changes.

I really feel that local level solutions might end up being better than DC solutions.  But again, I am not law enforcement, I am not African American and I despise politicians.  Injustice however, is not to be tolerated.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
