My mom always said the least effective way of convincing someone you're smart is telling them you are.

Took me a few years to understand her, but now I get it.

Unfortunately, the message you took from that was to instead tell others how dumb they are to make yourself look smart by comparison.

Maybe you should just stick with saying what you mean, rather than trying make excuses for what you posted. 

TLDR:  Words have meaning.

So do tones and sentiments.

Ever heard of a backhanded compliment?

I wouldn't worry too much about it.  This is a football message board that doesn't add up to a hill of beans, beyond a way to kill some time sharing opinions.

And here I thought we were deciding the fate of the franchise.

One can disagree but pretending Toomers of all people knows more about what Rhule and Fitterer want more than they do is absurd.

Fitterer is a respected 24 year NFL scout and Toomers is a message board whiner.

 

I’ve never said anything about knowing what anyone in the Panthers organization wants or thinks. I questioned the decision they made. And gave specific reasons for it. Yet not one person can come up with a benefit of it. Where I gave many why it’s a bad one. Are you saying that Rhule and Fitt can’t be questioned? It’s usually the only reason you slink in and out of any thread. Someone’s being mean to my team 😭 
 

    Hurney was in the NFL for most of 3 decades. Does that mean no one should have questioned him? Now, run along and complete the hit and run as usual.

There were a few posters here that stated they'd no longer be fans if Jones was the Panther pick.  Other than that, there wasn't much discussion of it in the media.

I would have been horrified had we taken Mac Jones. The sports media had me laughing with how many different scenarios they had coming from their "sources" such as:

Panthers are trading up

Panthers are trading down

Panthers taking WR

Panthers taking QB

Panthers intrigued by Fields

Panthers want Wilson

Panthers not high on Lance

It was all being made up imo.

Ask Rhule. He basically affirmed it.

Just out of curiosity, are you planning to be salty about them going with Darnold over who you wanted for the rest of the year or will you be letting this go at some point?

Let what go? Hilarious mental gymanstics to justify overlooking three years of some of the worst QB play in the NFL over that timespan?

What is Rhule supposed to say? "Yeah, we know the guy has sucked. We're hoping he doesn't suck for US."

Some of it probably was.

Fitterer let it be known a while back he was comfortable with misinformation being out there.

      Where would the Panthers be if they sat Bryce Young last season?

      By CPF4LIFE · Posted

      So let me ask you this, and this is assuming you watched the first 2 games of the season. The falcons game was a back and forth between to 2 bad teams until bryce throws 2 crucial picks to help atlanta pull away. The second game was a sloppy game where the defense scored and our offense did absolutely nothing till the 4th quarter, bryce even fumbles and saints return for a TD. If Dalton starts both of those games is the outcome and playout still the same for both games?

      sure.  I acknowledge we had a rookie making rookie mistakes.  You fail to acknowledge a pushing 40 Dalton however paired up in this trainwreck wasn't going to yield significantly better results. good results.   And Dalton didn't even win his game vs a wrecked Seattle D.  Andy Dalton couldn't even find a way for his team to beat the Carolina freaking Panthers in 2022.  A team with an interim HC, that couldn't score, playing like it was 1970.   And Andy Dalton had REAL weapons on the field at his disposal.   All Dalton had to do was score more than 10 points.  He couldn't pull that off.    I probably got as little faith in Bryce as anyone here.   But I'm not willing to go this Andy Dalton route.  Maybe he wins 4ish here.  But he wasn't doing much here.  Dalton isn't Cincy Dalton.

      What do you think really happens here?  Do you think that Seattle loss with half a secondary is a realistic game for Dalton to consistently have?  Do you expect 40 year old Dalton to throw it 60 times and rack up 361 yards while constantly getting hit to work against other teams?  If we played him all year do you think he would rack up 6,137 yards 34 TDs and 0 INTs on over a thousand attempts?  That games wasn't a great game.  We were trailing all game and he threw it against a terrible secondary 60 times averaging 6.6 yards an attempt.  He had one "deep" pass to Chark (wide ass open) for 27 yards who ran another 20 for a TD.  That's not happening against other teams.  I would be surprised if Dalton made it two more games taking those kinds of hits and probably losing both of those games.  Our OL sucked, Our coaches sucked, and our weapons sucked.  Remember Rhule beat Andy Dalton and his Saints offense (which has a better OL and better weapons) just the prior year.  Yeah Matt Rhule...  Darnold put up 43 yards and 2 INTs and Dalton STILL couldn't beat him.  That's embarrassing.
