The Carolina Panthers entered 2020 as the team with by far the most change as any team in the league. Twice as much change as the next highest team on the list. 

 

New coaches. New schemes. New starters at key positions. All during a pandemic where OTAs were not possible, an abridged training camp, and zero preseason games. This team was scotch taped together only a couple months ago. 

 

And guess what?

 

They have played 3 games and have been very competitive in each, winning one. 

 

All in all, I'd say that is pretty fuggin incredible. 

 

Just thought I would offer some Wednesday perspective. 

 

Love,

 

Your MFCEO

I'm honestly not surprised. I was never a big Rivera fan. I always thought he was a mediocre head coach propped up by extremely talented players. Sean McDermott was the real talent in that coaching staff. Look what happened to the defenses after he left.

The game passed him by a long time ago and I'm glad he's coaching another team. Great person, hell of a guy, but not who I would want coaching my favorite team.

This is two-fold though... There has been absolutely zero film on our coaches and many of our players in these schemes. I'm certainly optimistic and tend to take a positive view of it, but game film on our team could certainly become a factor later in the year and in subsequent seasons. The adjustments in game ease my concerns about this tremendously, as that has clearly already been a huge step up from Rivera.

It really is incredible. The amount of no-names/rookies playing on this team is astounding: Trent Scott, John Miller, Chris Reed, Tahir Whitehead, Juston Burris, Rasul Douglas, Stephen Weatherly, Joseph Charlton (I can go on). And they are actually holding their own for the most part. The coaching staff deserves a mega-ton of credit. 

Could y'all imagine if we make the playoffs with this team? It would be movie-worthy

      I'm All In On Drafting a QB in Round 1

      By 45catfan · Posted

      So we cut him if we don't give him the option?  I'm pretty sure there are players who didn't get the 5th-year option that played year four of their rookie contracts with their draft team.

      I'm All In On Drafting a QB in Round 1

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I didn't say do nothing if we don't draft one in the 1st and I"m not counting on a FA to magically become a franchise QB. But signing a FA to be our starter for the year and then re-address the next offseason would be FAR better than reaching on the wrong QB in the 1st this offseason. Feeling we HAVE to find our long term solution just because we need a new QB is how we got into this mess.  We thought Two Gloves would be at worst an average level QB for a few years, that didn't happen, so we went out and traded for Darnold.  That didn't work so we went out and traded for Baker, that didn't work so we went out and traded up to get Bryce. Our last 4 QB moves were all trying to force a solution, none of them worked out, and we're still trying to find Cam's replacement all these years later.  We'd just have been better off spending a year or two building up the rest of the team and going year to year on FA QB's while doing so.  I get it, it will be frustrating to deal with, but then when you find that actual long term solution, they plug right into an already built out roster and you're ready to contend immediately.

      Hornets vs Wizards 10/26 Game Thread

      Great win, should be 3-0 but I'll take 2-1. LaMelo is an MVP caliber player, period.   This is looking like an incredible draft so far. Sion James looking like the exact type of role player that all contending teams need to have, absolute steal in the 2nd. Kalk is a work in progress and I question how much upside he has but he's already been a considerable upgrade at C for us compared to the last several years (outside of healthy Mark which of course was rare).   Really seems like new ownership/front office has change the culture here significantly. Every guy looks bought in now.
