You're off the deep end with this stuff, dude

Forgive me, I've been relentlessly attacked on this board since yesterday.  I try to be a decent person to other huddlers on here.  I don't make any personal attacks on anyone.  I don't call anyone dumb or crazy on here.  I've been conversing with plenty of you guys on here for years, of which many things we agree upon. We both wanted Navarro a few years ago, back when his personal trainer was a customer of mine.  This is why I'm disappointed with many people on here right now.  I wanted good respectful conversation where we can lay out some stuff to eachother, but I've been personally attacked here all day long, which is fine.  To each their own. But you know I am a long hauler here and an avid Panther fan.  So I don't understand the gaslighting.  I'm not the only person with this point of view.

If wilks is the man of integrity everyone says he is he’d only be a part of the lawsuit if he felt cheated. Wilks knows he lost the job in Tampa, and to act otherwise tells me tepper made the right hire. Enough excuse makers and finger pointers in charge.

Somebody's got an opinion, starts a thread about it, others don't agree with them.  That's pretty much what has kept the Huddle viable all these years.

I wouldn't get too worked up about this thread.  Who's gonna remember it in a week or two?  Especially once the next tempest in a teapot comes along?  Not many.

Sorry dude, but you're being attacked not for personal reasons, but because this argument is ridiculous. There are enough holes in this theory to make Swiss cheese jealous.

Frank Reich didn't conspire with the Panthers. Hell, pretty much everybody who knows Reich would tell you he's one of the most honorable men in the NFL.

Reich would never be party to screwing over another coach. And suggesting his daughter's hire was part of some covert plan is just utterly ridiculous.

If you're upset about being attacked, drop this silly argument.

It could become an issue, but it would be the weakest argument ever. I believe it’s been shared that she placed the application with the team before he was even fired in Indy. Plus, this is not in Reich’s character. Whether you feel he’s a great coach or not, he is known to be a man of integrity and faith. 
 

So this is the attorney’s argument: The Panthers were racially motivated so much that they appointed you interim coach and allowed you to fire coaches and instill your “brand” on the team. They made no promises on whether you would get the full time gig and had a legitimate process to which you were a finalist for. However, you were screwed out of the job. 
 

It just makes no sense to me. However, he’s going to do what he’s going to do.

It's Florio, dude. Sh-t stirring is his business. Hell, he spent years trying to get presumed top picks to sit out their senior seasons.

Yet even he only states that it's something they might want to explore. And that there will be emails and documents and such to show internal communication.

My guess? He knows this is bullsh-t. But hey, anything for clicks, right?

Reich's last game they lost 26 to 3 to the Patriots. The team had 121 total yards.  They lost 17 to 16 to the Commanders. They were 3-5-1 and in the bottom 5 in offense and that's with Matt Ryan.  

Now Matt Ryan is washed but he is better then anything we had in the last 3 years.

You guys act like he is the second coming.

Ron Rivera was 76-67-1 and went to a superbowl....would he be a good hire? Would you want him back? Because by every metric he is a better and more accomplished coach then Reich. 

By any metric Reich's failures this year was worse then Wilks. 

Now you guys can live in the past and say Reich was great when he had a great QB....well no fugging shiit.

All coaches are great with a great QB.  But I get it...he did great 2 seasons ago so statistically he must be a better coach then a guy performing better then him today.

 

Nope because Ron is a defensive coach and just like Wilks, despite the "Riverboat Ron" nickname, plays and has played too conservatively in key moments of games. This has been a common thing in this team's history and one of the major reasons why Tepper would want to try and see what an offensive minded coach can do for us. Again, Wilks had a chance but playing conservatively hurt his chances and is a reason why Tepper would possibly prefer to go with Reich over him.

      I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
