Not sure why the glee over Samuel having a minor injury. I wish him well. Would've liked to have kept him but we had bigger priorities and it didn't make sense to give our 4th offensive option big money.

Nobody is celebrating it, I'm just glad we didn't resign him which is probably what Hurney would've done.

I think letting him walk was the correct call too, but it's just in really poor taste IMO to make a thread spiking the football about the guy missing week one due to a minor injury. We chose not to re-sign him. It's not like he forced his way out or it was an ugly breakup in any way. The Panthers made a business decision not to re-sign him. Samuel made a business decision to sign a contract to continue playing NFL football elsewhere. That's it, that's all. There's just no legit reason to be salty and this thread is saltier than the Dead Sea.

Did you totally miss the part about Rivera?

I definitely missed anything to get mad about.

I can't speak for everyone else, but I am not mad or upset about anything.

I think that some things will never change, like Rivera shrugging it off instead of iterating how important he believes Samuel (who they are not getting on a bargain bin deal) can be to their offense and that he is excited to have Samuel healthy again as soon as possible.

I long ago became numb to Ron Rivera saying dumb poo. I don't even notice it anymore.

You normally make to much out of what coaches say to the media. 

Seems to me you're just taking another opportunity to take a jab at him. 

Let that poo go.

Any glee Panther fans feel is not about Curtis Samuels injury and it is not about salt.

It is about this not happening to the Panthers anymore.

This too. 
 

Hurney was liable to pay him like a #1 and be stuck with him and his current injuries (and likely later ones) and contract while losing Robby and DJ over the years due to it.

All this while losing out on Marshall

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
