Panthers "narrowing the field"

Per Joe Person, currently on WFNZ. Apparently, a couple of guys have already been advised by the Panthers that they're "moving in another direction"(no word on who).

Person also mentioned that Tepper and Rhule haven't necessarily been on the same page in the search, specifically with Tepper wanting to look more at the "outside the box" guys but Rhule wanting a traditional talent evaluator.

As far as names, Person said he "keeps coming back" to Adam Peters. But also Interestingly said that if a guy like Peters is hired, that guy will have final say on the roster.

On a non-GM note, Person said the general belief is that the Panthers will be focused on getting a quarterback this offseason and moving on from Teddy Bridgewater.

And one final note: Joe Brady heading to Atlanta as their head coach is a very real possibility.

The fanbase would revolt if they didn't. Teddy is a top notch backup.

All of this makes sense. 

Curious....has Person become a more trusted/reliable/accepted source? Forever, I thought of him as a guy that you take the opposite on. Out of the loop and just a shade better than DNewton. 

He got better when he joined the Atlantic.

Seems like a real journalist now.

Spanish is correct.

Person was actually one of the earliest guys to mention that the Panthers could move on from Cam Newton. Also had specifics on what kind of injury Newton had (lisfranc) before others did.

He has his flaws, but he's a lot better than the sh-t he gets from some folks here.

What exactly did joe brady do to warrant an immediate head coaching hire after one season as a OC in the NFL? 

They have to be looking more at his college stuff? Or they just know Teddy's a bum and like his playcalling? Lol

His scheme and the plays he called throughout the year were all very, very good. Situationally it could have been better at times but he was learning as he was going. 

Teddy and the lack of a true redzone threat really limited what the offense could truly do.

I’m in the minority but I want Brady gone this year so we don’t draft a qb that just fits his specific system. Because Brady is going to be leaving shortly if it’s not this year. I want to draft a talented qb not a system qb. Makes me feel like we might draft someone like Mac Jones instead of Trey Lance. Maybe I’m wrong. Brady vouching for teddy leaves a horrible taste. Bye.
 

As far as a two gm type system I’ve been reading I don’t think that’s necessarily a bad thing. Kwesi is super smart but he’s green. I think he’s only been in the league for a couple years with the 49ers and Browns. You’d need someone who has more of a traditional eye and has more experience to pair with him. That’s hard to do though. Most of those types of guys just want the jobs themselves. Not clue what they’re gonna do but I won’t rush to judgement.

      You making fun of or not realizing how important that actually is leads me to believe you don’t have either of those assets and are subconsciously upset about it, or you’ve never been in a position to be a leader and thus you don’t value good leadership which Bryce oozes with.

      I said this last night to family. You can look at Bryce as not a “strong and physical” presence and that’s not going to change on you can look at it, that this guy has the type of skillset that sets him up to only get better for the next 5-7 years every year. He’s not going to know less about the game next year than this year. His timing will be better, his pocket presence better (even though the guy works around a pocket amazingly in my opinion), everything is just going to improve every year and I believed he’s already proved the doubters wrong other than nut huggers on here who just want a big strong man to drool over.

      Are the Panthers a "Trap Game" for the Hawks?

      By MHS831 · Posted

      The Seahawks won an emotional, divisional, overtime rivalry game vs the Rams on a Thursday night (Dec 18).  That gives them 10 days to prepare for the Panthers, but the Christmas holiday fell a week later--I bet they were afforded an extra day for travel-many coming back east.  Following the Panthers, Seattle plays at San Francisco for the division title (in all probability).   The Rams finish the season with games against the Falcons and Cardinals, two likely wins, pushing them to 13-4.  The Niners finish the season with home games against the Bears and Seahawks. Seattle finishes the season with the Panthers on the road and SF in California.   It is easy to see how preparing for the Panthers, during the holiday break and with the Niners waiting for them in SF a week later for (what could be) the NFC West title and #1 Seed in the NFC, could create the perfect trap game scenario.  The Panthers at home are 5-2.   In the past 2 weeks, the Seahawks struggled to beat the Phillip Rivers Colts in Seattle and then pulled off a miraculous, emotional victory at home vs. the Rams.  I am not convinced that they are as good as advertised. Seattle is a TD favorite in Charlotte.  I feel that Carolina by 3 may be more accurate.  While I am still not confident in this team's consistency and it never seems to dominate, it sure feels like a trap game for Seattle to me.  How could they NOT be thinking of San Francisco right now?  They are not used to being in this position (current players) and it is human nature.  Carolina 27, Seattle 24.
