I know this isn't a popular opinion. But here goes. We have a new Sheriff in town. He hasn't been here a full year. Maybe we should hold off on projecting our fears of "He Who Shall Not Be Named" onto Fitt. Just yet anywho.

 

This is Fitts first big deal. Can we at least wait for it to be done? Maybe he is Hurndog 2.0, and that would suck, hard. But maybe he is just Fitt 1.0, and that may not be a bad thing.

 

tl;dr version: Let's give the Sheriff time. Then we can decide if he lives,or dies.

Yep, the only time we get deals done is when after a year they look like boat anchors.

It sure seems like after we sign players they get hurt or decline.

Saints can extend all of their young drafted stars with no issues. Why is it so hard for us?

The Saints do a better job at resigning good players than we do, for sure.  They are in a similar situation with Marcus Williams right now, so we'll see how each one plays out.

They'll extend him 20 mill a year and have no problems Im sure.

By all accounts Fitts is Deputy Fife and Rhule is Sheriff Taylor...

...it will be interesting to see how it works out (or doesn't).

If Marty didn’t suck he would have been working on extending Moton instead of wasting $26M on Okung and Short to play half a year combined.

And yet, even with the Hurndawg holding the reins of ruin for another organization, THIS organization is doing whatever it can to save present day nickels because they fear paying future $$$ to their young talent and anchors.

 Except for a running back, of course.

 Because as we all know, having the best and top paid running back in the league is the key to present-day NFL success.

 But for sure, Carolina management, make sure you lock down your RUNNING BACKS to long-term, top dollar contracts and not your top young performers on OL!

It's genuinely starting to feel like a curse. Maybe it's that black cat outside the stadium? Or maybe it was Jeans Friday?

Its not a curse or bad luck.

 Yeah, that easy answer might make you feel better, but it’s not that.

 It’s ownership/management/coaching (in that order… though, to be fair, the first 2 years of the Rhule Regime he’s pretty much been the GM as well as HC).

If you were going for the joke, then...lol

 

If you were making a comment on our leadership, then...not lol 

 

The leadership we have now is the best it's been in 15+ years.

God I missed your special brand of sarcasm. By the way. That was a Hurndog contract. He really doesn't have anything to do with the team anymore. You can't blame this regime for past mistakes.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      By 52Beast · Posted

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
