A Odd Franchise


3MTA3

Recommended Posts

Our only player in our hall of honor only played three seasons for us, and was about washed up when we got him, plus was slow and short. Our first franchise quarterback quit on us during the season. Our best play maker for most of the last 6 years is a wide receiver who is shorter than almost every corner back in the league, and probably would have never been a starting wide out with any other team in the league. Plus he personally lost a few games for us with his temper. We forced a defensive end who did all he could to get away from this team and move on, to stay, and hoped he would do what he did last season for us this season. He has only stepped up now cause of the player comments, and media attention, and doesn't want his actions to hurt his ability to sign with whatever team he wants to go to. Am I the only one who sees how bad this team has been managed? It is a joke from the top down!

Their loss.

Oh yeah, Carolina from an organizational standpoint is far from a "joke". Richardson is one of the most well-regarded owners in the league and John Fox is widely respected (outside of the fans of course). This thread is a perfect reflection of our new-ish fanbase. You don't know how truly awful a "bad" front office can be. See the Bills, Lions, Browns, Rams, Jaguars, Saints up until 2006, and Redskins for a start.

Please stop posting, this guy is obviously either a Saints or Falcons fan. Man do I feel bad for you though, you seriously need to get a life. But don't worry, your day will come when you suck too, or should I say, AGAIN!

drafting Julius Peppers

Thomas Davis

You know, it's easy to only point to the bad things...

As far as Steve Smith being too small to make it as a receiver on other teams. Well, other teams would have found out soon enough just how GREAT Smith was; minus his size issue. Wes Welker (5-9), DeSean Jackson (5-10), etc. Don't tell me teams don't give chances to small receivers.

I do agree with you that we sort of forced Peppers into a situation he doesn't want. $16 million or $20 million, when somebody says, "I don't want to be here.." you need to respect that. Like any of us, we only live once and Julius himself, doesn't want to spend his entire life in North Carolina. He deserves that much. Too bad we couldn't get a draft pick for him, but as Fox would say, "it is what it is".

I also agree that giving Sam Mills a statue is a bit much. I understand the heart and soul he showed but I think it's a little extreme.

    • The reset worked with proton.me.. wouldn’t work with my Gmail, Yahoo or Verizon email accounts 
    • Wish they started at 5:30 or 6 at the latest so I can watch it. I have to be in bed by start time.
    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.
