Hurney Scks ...Got it.. How do we fix it

Based on what I've read about him, I question whether Matt Rhule would want to work in that environment.

When Rhule outlined what it would take to get him to the NFL, he made clear that he was looking for a coach centric approach similar to what guys like Belichick and Saban have.

I'm not sure whether he has that already, but I have a feeling he will at some point.

It's amazing what people will agree to when $63,000,000++ hangs in the balance.

There is Z-E-R-O chance Tepper will ever cede to anyone the amount of control Belichick currently has (Saban is not relevant, not in the NFL)...

...it's Tepper's world and he ain't simply along for the ride --- he's large and fully in-charge.

I agree with you.  I am sure the Bill O'Brien fiasco definitely may have alter Tepper's timeline.  

So far Rhule hasn't made too many questionable moves.

So Rhule has control? But Hurney overruled him?

So the story goes...

Ask yourself this, though: Which of the two of them is more likely to still be here in the near future?

That’s a different topic, I was trying to get an idea of which organizational structure was more likely.

Hurny with total control like you are suggesting or the one that SizzleBuzz is suggesting.

Uuuhhh...Yeah. That's a pretty dumb article.

Jermaine Carter is a JAG, Ian Thomas is nothing special and Troy Pride has been inconsistent. Bragging about those guys as "killing it" doesn't exactly show a lot of knowledge.

What seems to show even less knowledge though is that the writer apparently doesn't know Marty Hurney didn't run the 2017 draft.

Not sure where you're getting that I said that unless you're going off what SB said.

But a quick FYI here: SB is a guy who's either been banned or changed IDs after making a fool of himself several times. His current silliness is to act like he knows what's going on inside the Panthers because he watches a TV show about billionaires on Showtime.

I think it's too early to make any definitive judgments on Jermaine Carter, but I'm pretty excited from what I've seen these past few games since he's been given more opportunities. 

He has 21 tackles over the last 4 games while playing roughly 50% of defensive snaps.  If you extrapolate that over a 16-game season and with 100% of defensive snaps, that would project him to have 168 tackles by the end of the season which would be an NFL-best.

I get that this isn't an exact science, but this is the best objective tool we can use to put his performance in perspective as a full-time defensive starter.  I certainly haven't seen anything out of him that would sway me towards an underwhelming impression of "this dude's a JAG"...I feel like we're just naturally dismissive of him because he's a relative nobody.

You seem to like to tell folks they are wrong but you can't ever support your rationale for saying so.

Back to Marty....

(1) You are saying he will be exited -- when and why?  (be specific)

(2) You are also saying the team should hire a traditional GM to replace Marty --- when do you believe this will happen, and again, why?

To be clear, here's where I stand on both:

(A) Marty will remain with the Panthers for the foreseeable future in a hybrid scouting/management/PR role, which has been the case since Tepper took over.

(B) Tepper won't hire a traditional GM within whom traditional GM powers are vested. 

The reason for both are (i) Hurndog's skill-set fits well within the Appaloosa model that Tepper has overlaid on the Panthers, and (ii) within the Appaloosa model Tepper is the GM and he will never hire and pay someone dumber than him to make key decisions for him --- just doesn't work that way in Tepper's World.

Let's get you on the record Scot and then watch it play out, see who turns out to be right.

You down with it dog?

You have averaged 42.5 posts per-day, every-day...

...for the last 30 days --- and have said absolutely nothing.

That, is something to behold.

 

Come on man, get on the record as it goes to Marty and a potential GM hire!

Live a little!!

    • There's nothing wrong with Sanders,  he's a good receiving TE.  Canales just doesn't use the TE that way.  He won't get the looks to break out.  
    • I thought he had a few really nice flashes.  I can see him showing out this year 
    • I have heard that before--when standing in front of a full body mirror at Old Navy.  I said it, actually. Seriously, Let's go on what we know. There is reason for optimism that exceeds random opinions and negativity: 1. Last year, the offense was the priority and the interior offensive line was the focal point. Morgan addressed it in free agency and the draft. They improved.  2.  Last year, Canales pulled Young after 2 games and replaced him with an established veteran.  Instead of giving up on Young, he developed him, primarily focusing on his footwork and timing.  Continued development in his fundamentals should result in improved play.  (this is significant because some athletes rely on natural ability and do not adapt well.  They resort to old habits. This means that Bryce is "teachable" and is willing to face adversity and fight through it.  That is what you want in a QB.) 3. Morgan drafted a raw talent at WR; and we all knew he was raw.  Huddlers are already calling it a bust, but his productivity numbers were in line with the other WRs drafted around where he was drafted.  So, yes, he was a bit disappointing, but what part of "Raw" is not understood here?  Evil Bryce, then inconsistent Dalton, then good Bryce--all while facing the top defensive backs--and let's not forget about his lingering injuries--and we should understand XL's productivity.  Morgan was looking for a home run based on XL's 1-season productivity and his freakish athleticism, but I always thought we would not know what we have until year 2.  TMac alone will make XL better--a solid #2. 4.  If you blame Morgan for drafting XL, you must give him credit for making Coker a priority free agent.  In my view, he addressed WR in 2024 pretty effectively in the long view.  5.  Let's look at the rest of the draft.  Brooks?  The best RB in the draft in round 2?  Morgan was attempting to build a solid run game behind Bryce.  Wallace was a very solid third round pick at LB. Sanders is a strong TE for a fourth round pick. 6.  Not much is being said about the development of Chau Smith-Wade.  His improvement mirrors Bryce Young's, actually.  In his first 8 games, his PFF rating was 36.5.  In the final 9 games, his PFF rating was 66.7.   7.  With so many needs, Morgan hit the UDFA market with success. In addition to Coker, Demani Richardson got 400+ snaps and had a 60.1 PFF grade, including an interception. 8.  In free agency, Morgan spent big bucks on Guards, a move that made his QB better. He added David Moore, Nijman,  He signed Clowney, Wonnum, Robinson, Jewel, Chaisson, Fuller, Scott, D. Jackson, Dionte Johnson, etc.  A few years of Fitterer left him with more holes that players.  Some did not work out, but he did all this on a budget (after he splurged on Lewis and Hunt).  It is hard to get a free agent to come to a team that loses--so in some cases, Morgan had to overpay or accept questionable players. Morgan's first year as a GM demonstrated an understanding of the game like we have not seen since Polian, before his lost it. Canales, on the other hand, should be rated by the improvement of players.  Zavala, Ekwonu, Mays, Young, Smith-Wade, Coker, Wallace--all improved.  He had to overcome major losses such as D. Brown, Shaq, Dionte Johnson, Corbett--and we saw growth.  Despite all this team went through, after 8 games of disarray, This team finished 4-5 with close losses to both Super Bowl teams.  Frankly, I do not know how he did it. This year was better.  The WR room is solid with depth.  The OL room is solid with depth.  The TE room is as good as it has been in a while.  The RB room has the potential to be as good as it was when we had 28 and 34.  DBs?  Better.  DL?  Better.  Edge?  better.  The bottom of the roster?  Much better. We really don't know what we have yet, and that makes this offseason exciting.
