So, which is it then? Are the Panthers building to win mid-season, as in now, or is that something they need to do in the off-season?

Hell if I know. Seems like they have been just throwing poo at the wall and seeing what sticks for years now.

Building a culture to win is doing things in reverse.

 

You build to win. The culture is the result. 

How many teams have a “winning culture” in the nfl?   Steelers.  KC.  Balt.  Pats.     This whole culture thing is overblown.  Build a good team and go win.   Talent and coaching matters.   Culture not so much.

Win of course is my thoughts when seeing the title of the thread!! Winning proves Rhule was the number one problem and we have quality players with a real coach!! Fluke or whatever u want to say last week.. they were a different team!! I hope they carry it on against ATL .. It will be interesting to see the next 3 games.. we will see then if Rhule was the number one problem!! I get the tanking but we have a chance.. we took the division before with a shitty record!!So did Pittsburgh .. and we won a playoff game if I remember right.. I was on the tank til I saw last week!! They looked like a real football team!! Playoffs or bust!!

Literal tanking isn't helpful but winning 3 or 4 or 5 extra games that didn't even matter in the grand scheme of things is why we have been relegated to throwing poo at the wall status. For example ask yourself if you would have happily traded that win streak with baby goat Kyle Allen for the rights to draft Justin Herbert.

      Off Season Thread

      By MillionDollarCam · Posted

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
