Burns is the new Rhule

[Sir Purr]

It appears the Huddle has turned their hate to Burns now that Rhule is gone. 
Always has to be someone to bitch about. 
 

Good job guys.

Thread worthy.

Fitts is the new Rhule.

How is that anti-tanking grandstanding going? You pathetic loser.

More the new Robbie than the new Rhule, but it's not even that either.

Anyway, if you actually read the responses, it's not really hate. Many are just explaining why we should have traded him, and use sound rationale to support that opinion. The "hate" that I've seen is for Fitterer (and by extension, Tepper) for not trading Burns.

Hate? Noone hates him you goof. He's overrated sure but I've seen no hate. Unless you consider anything short of licking his ass hate?

I don’t even know if he’s really overrated, it’s just that turning down two 1sts and a 2nd for him seems to be an obviously bad decision

Yup, anything not overtly positive is often lumped into the 'hate' category by a few folks.

tied for 14th in sacks

 

We should have taken the deal and tried not to laugh out loud until the nfl processed it

I’m really surprised at how many fans overrate the crap out of Brian Burns. Years of being garbage will do that to a fanbase, desperate to cling to any decent player. He’s not worth what the Rams offered it’s just that simple!

We let Riddick walk for nothing and he is a better edge. He is good and also overrated by a big chunk of this fanbase.

I’ll be honest, I love Burns and he’s quite possibly my favorite Panther over the last 3 years. That said, I was fully on board for trading him for two 1sts. That’s before I was even aware there was a 2nd involved.

I’m still hesitant to call him overreacted. I think it’s more accurate to say he’s a star player playing in the wrong system. Our defense doesn’t utilize him properly, but he’s still a damn good player for us. In a 3-4 I do believe he would be a superstar and the fact a team offered us two 1sts and a 2nd confirms that in my mind. They don’t think he’s overrated either clearly, so it’s not just our fan base. But we are in a rebuild he doesn’t exactly fit our system like a glove. We should have jumped all over that trade in a second.

He is very good. I deleted it because it felt harsh. He isn't great unfortunately, at least not here. I agree as a 3-4 edge the tackles would go down but sacks way up. I think he also plays well at LDE but we rotate him becaude of the lack of priduction from the other players. Some here treat him like a unreplaceable player yet Riddick was just picked up for cheap and no picks was really my point.

We absolutely should have traded him for that haul and it wouldn't have had to be justified at that price.

A Super Bowl winning franchise that’s regularly in the playoffs doesn’t offer 2 first and 1 second for an overrated player. That said, you take that deal and run.
