What is your unpopular opinion?

[Bear Hands]

I'm happy we didn't reach on a QB from 2006-2009 to eventually replace Jake.

There were very few good ones to come out of those drafts and none that we could've even drafted in R1-2.  Flacco would be an exception but he was taken a pick before us. 

Also don't like the narrative that Clausen led us to Cam.  That was more on Matt Moore pulling a Kevin Kolb/Kyle Allen and teasing us he was our future, then flopping terribly.  That saved us from a lot of pain and heartache, and truly led us from the end of Delhomme to Cam.  No "bridge" required.  

A popular opinion: I still can't believe we didn't draft a QB high with Rhule.  It is still mind boggling how poorly he did at trying to build an NFL team.

Half true, they don’t come for advice they come for entertainment purposes.

I love Cam, but number 1 is correct.  Jake had the 2 min offense down pat.

Delhomme had Smitty, Moose, Walls (underrated), and an actual LT during most of his career. Cam only had Smitty and Gross his rookie year. That helps a lot in a GWD.

Without looking it up, I think Walls had retired by the time Jake was playing here. But I get what you're saying. Cam had Olsen, and briefly Shockey.

Fitterer is not a GM and should not have be carried over or hired in the first place.

High value coaches and players won’t play for Tepper and Rhule’s GM (lol) and those interviews are likely a disaster behind closed doors.

This franchise will never see success until Tepper takes his hands off, and hires help to put the right GM in place that will be able to bring in a winning coach. Basically the blueprint for most successful teams since like forever.

The Panthers and Tepper are a laughing stock trying to find a cheat code, trading valuable future assets and money, at QB, and consistently displaying how Tepper has zero clue evident by not following rules etc.

There is a reason why coaches/players in demand do not come here and we are always left with personnel with little options.
 

Some fans side with Tepper and say this is being smart, path makers, and finding a diamond. I say it’s ineptness, and evidence in lies in results.

Mike Remmers was a decent RT when he wasn't being put in impossible situations one on one against all-galaxy pass rushers.  He's remembered for being destroyed by Von Miller and Shaq Barrett in the Super Bowl, but his entire body of work isn't as horrible as emotional, angry fans think.

Gettleman rebounded nicely from 2016 with the 2017 draft and FA.  He also made several shrewd plug-and-go FA signings that filled holes in the roster and made us competitive in 2013.

If Tepper owned the team when Cam came into the league he would have spared no expense on coaches and weapons for him. And we would have won multiple titles

I really miss Jake Delhomme.  

I miss watching Stewie run. 

I hate the CBA.
