from cam to Darnold..you guys still take what these people say literally lol

zero understanding of media/coach speak and reading between the lines

man what a rough way to go through life, i bet you all feel utterly betrayed by everyone and everything 

These are the same fools (Scott Fitterer included) that picked up Darnold's fully guaranteed option before he even walked into the building. No teams believe this mess because this regime has no credibility left. All we did today was give other front offices something new to laugh at. But keep thinking this is big brain chess Tepper and Co are playing 😂

I think they learned a little from the fug up of last year..

When Tepper  crapped on Teddy so bad.. He burned that bridge of Teddy coming back after they failed on Stafford and Watson.  He destroyed all the leverage we had when getting Sam.. And assets we might could have gotten for Teddy..

I think it also may just be that they don't have many or any options at QB. Good free agents don't want to be here. It just kind of is what it is.

50 games! 54 TDs! 52 INTs! 29 fumbles! Is that action loud enough for you?

Oh, the irony.

If that easy to figure out ..

 

Then "saying" Sam is a "Good QB" 

While trying to trade for or draft a QB..

Should be just as easy to understand..

Lmao

just because i don’t encourage anyone to take what the FO (or anyone really) literally doesn’t mean i think they’re intelligent or capable, they can still do so and not know wtf they’re doing

Just because they made stupid moves in the past doesn't mean they should keep doing them...

True. I guess because I cannot understand that line of thinking in life and that I do not see it openly that it could be an issue to someone. Maybe I've become oblivious to it.

I guess I thought sports was well beyond that in regards to players.

Now in coaching? I'm skeptical that the process has been inclusive and as open as it should have and could have. 

It's all stupid anyway.  Of all the things to dislike someone over the color of their skin would be the last thing you could possibly think of.

I work with enough old people all over the country to see and hear enough open racism or thinly veiled racism. 

Back when I gave a poo about trying to change people's minds, I would talk to them about this poo and it almost always boiled down to a learned response(relatives or people they were around growing up) or some event that happened to then and they chose to decide that "those people" were all like that. Seems to be fairly universal across all races or religions for that matter.

Now I just ignore it. It's nothing I care to fight and most of that crowd is old enough that they wouldn't change regardless of the circumstances. 

My general opinion is that they are all headed towards death anyway, so let them die and I just won't have to fuging hear it as much.

I think that definitely didn't endear them to prospective free agents across the board. Teddy is a pretty well liked veteran, although he might not be the most skilled guy.

So the owner and coaches dragging him after he just spoke his mind probably didn't sit well with a lot of veteran players.

The problem was they did it before he spoke his mind..

Remember Tepper was trashing him before the end of the season..

He shouldn't have said it because it makes the Panthers appear to be more of a clown show than we already are. It's not rocket science. You can't say someone is a "very good" QB when they have 54 TDs, 52 interceptions and 29 fumbles in 50 games. What you can say is that, "We need to stabilize the position," and we're going to add some competition to that end. That's believable and is "coach-speak", and is even respectable. You say something without appearing to be disingenuous. That's how PR works for those that want to know.

    • I just keep the main thing the main thing.   The equivalent here would be you raging about Joe Brady needing to be fired.   Me saying, Matt Rhule is the issue and firing Joe Brady doesn't address the biggest issue at hand and won't actually matter.  Which is a dance I did then too.  You then call me a Joe Brady apologist because I wouldn't get away from Matt Rhule being THE problem.  the main problem is Bryce Young and his supporters in the front office.  Until that changes, nothing matters.    Canales being a weak OC in over his head? Time and a place.  You can go check my threads from preseason where I blasted amateur hour  Canales for not calling plays.  He needed work because he isn't good.  But that's not the biggest issue we got.   Like I said, nothing really matters big picture until Bryce Young and his backers address THE problem.  Which is the QB.   I have gone into painful detail about the entire Dave scheme is dependent on a QB bailing out a meh scheme and approach.  I didn't want Dave.  Dave is Foxball in reality.  Which is what Pete did in Seattle in reality.  It's the same approach and it needs a QB to bail it out.   You want me to bash stuff I addressed long ago.  I'm no Dave fan.   But the biggest issue for the Carolina Panthers is Bryce.   I want the outcome that leads to Bryce Young not being retained.  That's what is best for the Carolina Panthers.  You want 2 more pointless wins notched onto a meaningless season if it means just another completely pointless season tied to Bryce?  Not me. 
    • Canales comes across as this uber positive, cheerleader guy, but he does seem like he can make a cold decision when needed (see: Bryce benching, calling out Coker, a few others).  Something about him makes me feel like he's a bit sneaky with how he can get.  He's the type where I think if he's just in a room with Tepper, he'll let it out about what he thinks to save his ass.   And even with the wins, I just don't see much camaraderie between Canales & Young.  They don't reference each other in the usual QB-HC tone/dynamic in pressers and games.  It seems like Bryce is still trying to prove himself and Dave is still just not impressed, trying to figure out what even works with the kid. My gut says he won't be shy to explain to Morgan and Tepper what he needs to succeed.  And that doesn't include Bryce.  Barring some epic turnaround, the book is close to being written.  He will have more leverage.  If he's gifted a 3rd season, I highly doubt he's going to look and say, yep, let's just try it again with Bryce.  That isn't happening.  
    • Underrated part of all of this. Feel like it was Kaye that reported that NOBODY wanted to touch this job, so we had to go with someone not really even getting interviews/hire someone too early.  A. Tepper is dumb to have not listened to Harbaugh if it's true he wanted to be here, since that was the only name I remember being *potentially* tied to us B. You can cycle through QBs every single year. You can't do that with coaches and expect to hire anybody worth a poo. Even if Canales sucks, optically we almost have to give him 3 years minimum to prove we're a serious team for once and not scare anyone else off.
