There is more to his firing than just the draft, if he signed off on bridgewater than that alone is a fireable offense  

Why?

Bridgewater is NOWHERE near as bad as people make out and he's on an affordable two year contract. You don't fire a GM over that.

Tepper has publicly stated that one of the reasons Marty isn't here anymore is because he didn't "align" with Matt Rhule very well. He's also mentioned that Marty was very old school and resistant to new processes that the team wanted to implement.

It's not hard to look at those statements and figure that Marty wasn't comfortable with Matt Rhule having as much power as he did.

Hurney was basically King of Everything under Jerry Richardson, and per his own words, he liked it that way. Being part of a power structure rather than being at the top of it probably didn't sit well with him.

Thus, he's now no longer involved in it at all.

I'm trying to find the exact quote, but I remember some months back Matt Rhule said something like he'd just as soon work with Marty Hurney as anybody.

I guess that one goes under the same category as "I can't wait to work with Cam Newton" and "(player we're about to cut) is doing a fine job".

Just listened to the Tepper presser on releasing Hurney. 

When asked about his differences with Hurney, he stated that they have different approaches to evaluation. For example, how does a player perform in the 4th quarter or on 2 minute drives.

Does anyone else feel like this is a clear shot at Hurney's evaluation of Teddy Bridgewater?

    • Brother re-check that guarantee...my page shows 30mill.....thats means he's staying in my book for at least til the end of 2026.  Im going to be my normal honest self, besides watching like half of the SB, I didn't know the guy. My guess is Panthers have a "planned model of paying players" and they almost had to spend a chunk of space on a DLman after Dbrown injury season gave them a nightmare out-come of worst D in NFL scoring. Once Milton got above Dbrown payments, they went with the plan B. A player whom the "co-GM" put his name with. Brad said turk would not be a problem off-field and leader, which the Panthers need badly. I dug in with the google-fu, I found out  I also found him playing lots of NT, which was shocking given the small frame. He seems ready for a bigger role and had a great SB too. IDK, I feel Dan Morgan was dead set on not going into this season without more DL depth and its there. The real deal is this, nearly all FA take one year to "adjust". I think turk is trying too hard and causing injuries as a result for his contract. Dbrown called turk "strong as hell" and I know for a fact Dbrowns has insane core and strength numbers. They lift together with the 50 LB difference...... you always lift with a guy who's similar in strength cause you can leave on the 8 wheels, let the other guy lift while you rest and go after him.  I do wish he had a better beginning to his panther career, 3 games for him to do so and it would cover up the low points if he made a few plays.... Again it felt like they almost had to make move/spend $$$ and Morgan was going to have DL depth this season no matter what...My best guess. 
    • There's a reason DC wasn't getting calls to be a HC. He wasn't ready. His indecisiveness is infuriating. His lack of awareness is mystifying. He jumped at the chance to grab the David Tepper retirement plan and who can really blame him. Maybe with time he can grow into the job. But we're on year 8 of our 7 year rebuild. I think I'm gonna need a hip replacement before we get a decent HC.
