That until we find a franchise QB we will be irrelevant. You would think this is actually a popular opinion but there are actually human beings who don't think going after Bridgewager, Darnold and Baker were bad moves even in hindsight. 

 

Matt Rhule set this franchise back YEARS with his terrible management and decision making. Again this should be a popular opinion but it is debated

So the popular opinion is to double down on that.

Got a couple..

-Jake Delhomme is still very overrated in our franchise and should have been replaced BEFORE his Tommy John injury

-We fudged over DeAngelo Williams' career (Sat him behind Deshaun Foster for 2 years/wasted his prime behind Tommy Jone Delhomme and Jimmy Clausen)

-Julius Peppers is the best Panthers player 

-Chris Gamble is extremely underappreciated; top 4 Panthers player ever

I can get behind this. 
 

Delhomme in the 4th quarter was his saving grace though.

Actually Tepper set this franchise back and not just with Rhule. With Hurney and now with Rhule’s GM. Also with himself. He thinks he can make decisions. He can’t.

This is LITERALLY what the 49ers went through until the owner stepped back and hired help, and took hands off approach.

I mean Tepper literally just had a vote for his HC…including severely under qualified people when considering qualifications for hiring a HC. And that’s being nice.

You would think THIS would be a popular opinion but I’ve learned a majority of this board only watches the Panthers and are in a tunnel, and that change from when they do bad is always a good thing and brings hope. Even when it’s from the same source. 

Hope isn’t a strategy though and general NFL enthusiasts know until Tep takes his hands off, it’s not good. The fact moves like keeping Rhule’s GM are a good idea and Tepper is going to turn around the ship on his own despite solidifying the worst stretch in 30 years  is not even debated but given the benefit of the doubt/accepted as truth absolutely dumbfounds me.

And thus, we need a franchise QB so badly to bail us out. This is why my opinion has changed from not wanting to trade assets to trading the future and move up for one.

I think a lot of Scott’s sins were hidden behind Rhule’s incompetence. Wouldn’t be surprised if they show themselves more this offseason. The question is will Scott get the axe before he takes Reich down with him.

Indeed, we will see and it will probably take two seasons, but Fitt is and was hired as a yes man. Clearly. A GM worth his salt isn’t going to say yea I’ll come work for a CEO Baylor coach and just do the paperwork. 

Tepper can bark all day long about how he loves people who argue/disagree with him but he 100% does NOT. That is why Harbaugh and Payton are not his type of coaches. Too vocal. Too knowledgeable.

Nevertheless, I digress, getting the axe before Reich just starts the whole cycle over again. And by cycle I mean Tepper’s embarrassing assbackward dynamic of owner/GM/coach.

Owners hire GMs with help and insight and the GM hires the HC, HC hires staff. That’s normal.

Hurney hires Rhule, Rhule hired Fitt, now we have Fitt hiring Reich (actually I think a bunch of people voted on it really) and if Fit goes what’s next? Lol more shenanigans from path maker Tepper and co.

This is coming from a MJ fan.

 

I love MJ but Lebron is simply bigger, stronger, faster. MJ is too small to guard him.

 

6'6 215 MJ vs 6'9 250 Lebron it's not a fair matchup.

2 different eras of basketball. 

2 different ways the game was played, different in the way its called, and different in the way teams are built. 

MJ changed the game. LeBron is playing on the foundation MJ built. Not taking anything away from Lebron's skills, but if I had to build a team around 1 or the other, I'd take MJ 10 out of 10. I'd take Kobe over LJ too.

If they played one on one in their prime Lebron would bully him.

For about 3 minutes.

Then a champion mentality will overcome a flopping mentality.A lot of people were bigger faster stronger.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By PootieNunu · Posted

      It's funny how the teams with the great QBs stay at or near the top of the league every season.  Yes it is a team game, but the QB has the biggest impact in most NFL football games.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      By d-dave · Posted

      Look, no one is ever a perfect player.  Since the QB handles the ball on 100% of plays offensively (unless there's a direct snap to a RB or something), I can absolutely see where they get an outsized blame and gain from what happens at any given snap of a football game.   Theoretically, there shouldn't even be a stat or idea to a 4th quarter comeback or game winning drive because you should already have done that during the game.  Losers!  Right?  Just because you win late doesn't take away the fact you tried to lose the game for your team! I'm not a fan of that opinion, but again, I'm just a moron with a keyboard.   Bryce has limited tools.  Bryce has not inspired the same level of confidence in us as Cam Newton did in year 3.  I certainly get that.  We traded a TON of assets to get Bryce, and we still suck.  (I mean, since we've lost games, we're losers right?) I completely understand that some fans are just unhappy with a limited QB and a team that isn't performing well, unless the other teams are worse losers than we are. I will say this:  Bryce will fight until the end.  Sure, he's has some real loser football.   But in close games, he's doing his best to comeback (even against a winner of prevent D). Now is it better or worse if your QB plays their best ball in the first half and sucks 2nd half so long as they finish with 300 yards, 3 TDs for your fantasy points? Who said stats are for winners anyway?  The Panthers and Bryce has a long way to go.  I'm enjoying the winning right now.  Though I do start each game thinking "how will we fug this up today?" Because it's been such a poo show in the Tepper era.  Will he prove to be a legit starting NFL QB?  Maybe not here as evidence by our record with QBs who were high draft picks.

      Ive never liked the term game winning drives because they include games where the QB was part of or was the reason the team was behind in the first place. Ive been arguing against this stat since the Delhomme years. It should only count when the QB is out of the equation of reasons why the team fell behind in the first place and is at least half the reason why he led the last drive to give them a lead. It shouldnt count if they just hand it off most of the time and the RB is on fire and they go down and score a TD or FG.
