Josh Allen helps, too. A great QB makes coaches and GMs look good. Put Josh Allen on our roster and you’d all be singing the praises of Rhule and Fitt. Panthers need a break at QB. 

Ehhh I agree to an extent but I still think Matt Rhule is an inferior coach to McDermott. Also Brandon Beane has been one of, if not the best, GM since starting at Buffalo. I'm excited for Fitts future but he's got a long way to go to prove himself like Beane has. 

 

Ultimately I agree having a stud QB solves a lot of issues but the Bills are a contender due to the team they've built and coached around Allen in addition to the talent himself.

Nope. It would be a Texans/Watson or Lions/Stafford situation. Hell even a Rivera and Shula/Cam in some ways.

I agree a QB is paramount but put them with inept coaching who can only surround them with trash and a career will be wasted.

Rhule and Fit have not shown anything that even puts them at that level let alone average.

Anyways, the McD/Beane fiasco while clinging to Hurney is a great example of the failure of this franchise.

I made a point Beane was the future and should be the one to replace Hurney. Told again by the typical crew how wrong I was and how much better Gettleman was for the Panthers future. I obviously had zero clue on Beane's trajectory in the NFL.

I knew Gettleman was a path to missed opportunity and a long winter for the Panthers, and once again history proves me correct.

McD is a great coach but would Tepper allowed him to be the coach or would he have been a meddling owner just as he is now.  Tepper has not been a good owner and for a franchise to be successful it needs 1). Great coach  2). Great GM   3). An owner that lets the great coach and great GM to do what they do best....and stay out of their way.

      Texas A&M Nic Scourton vs. Purdue Nic Scourton

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      I’m honestly not trying to argue with you or talk bad about Scourton, I like him and I’ve watched all of his Purdue stuff/videos you linked previously. Just like I’ve watched all of Princely’s Florida stuff I’m only pointing out the weight thing because I’m excited about the idea of him being 255-260 and being more of a stand up edge here in Carolina like he was at Purdue versus at A&M And like you, I have a crap load of experience doing the whole cutting/weight/fitness thing and I know how crappy/sluggish I feel when I’m holding as little as an extra 8-10lbs of unnecessary weight. So for Scourton to come out and say he’s 255-260 now and feels good that’s exciting based on what he’s put on film at 280 and not feeling his best

      2024 College Football Thread

      I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game. They've created a nearly unending list of "what ifs". Hell, every HS, college, and pro team out there has a long list of them. It's also a good reminder that there's no such thing as a routine major injury. Even though sports medicine has improved dramatically in recent decades, major injuries are still somewhat of a coin flip on how a guy is going to emerge from it.

      I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
