Just so we are clear

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

    • Not only for Andersen but the whole team, having not beat the Habs this season before tonite.  Shows them that they aren't jinxed.
    • I understand why people say things like it could be worse in relation to Tepper but it just doesn't jive for me. Are the optics bad? Yes. Would I want her to be the owner of my team? No. But I mean she's only been owner for a year and the Colts overall are a better run organization. As far as I know they've also never had the distinction of having the worst win percentage in all of professional sports either. Tepper has owned this team for 8 years and about the only thing that has been consistent has been the ability to continue to find different ways to achieve new lows. Even now people are saying things are different yada yada but we said these same things at certain points under Rhule Fitterer and Reich. I'm going to wait to see how the rubber meets the road this upcoming season before I make any strong conclusions about anything in relation to the longevity under this franchise going forward.
    • This is a toughie because I wonder what a guy like Canales thinks about redemption stories for addiction issues. Also, I think this is a case of 1 player getting caught, and not being naive enough to think this isn't more common in college than we think. I'd toss a 3rd rounder out there. 2026 is essentially a redshirt season regardless, so he's not taking over for any NFL QB next year. Best case, he's ready to go in 2027 if we pass on Bryce's extension. Worst case, he's our future backup QB2. Kid has the tools to be an NFL QB. I do think we could somehow land a '26 3rd round pick back in a trade. Our past years' third rounders are: Brazzell Princely Wallace DJ Johnson Matt Corral All this to say, I could see a team like the Jets going w/ a 2nd. They have three FRPs next year.
