 Not trading Burns is looking like a real good idea now with Evero being brought in

It almost feels like someone in the Front Office has said "your best player on defence is Burns - build the system around his skillset". 

Let's see if he thrives as an OLB in a 3-4, there's no reason he shouldn't.

Wonder if Luke wants to be involved more now?   Seems like he would be a natural fit with Evero.

Only thing I see with that, is he looked lost in 3-4 during his last year. Idk if he'd be good fit as LB coach, which is where most people would peg him. I do think he'd be a great coach but would have to figure out where is the best spot for him.

To be fair, that was his choice.

Nobody ever expected him to be mistake free, but those were pretty bad choices.

Yeah. I was giving him credit for finally learning from a few rough years. He could have tossed Hurney when he got rid of Rivera so I really don't get whatever this take is

You mean like he always has? But he didn't have as good of football minded people around him?

I'm sorry, but anybody who expected Tepper to be this no mistake making person, when we still had hurney on staff, is just a t lying to themselves.  

Who forced Tepper to keep Hurney when he fired Rivera?

He was learning.  It's not like he had anybody else to learn on at the time. 

It's easy from a fan perspective,  to tell him to blow uo the front office, and rebuild it. When he didn't know his ass from his pecker? 

I can easily argue he did the best he could with what he had. When he had the opportunity to change, and upgrade from the experience he had acquired, he did. That eventually led us to this.

      this     I never cease to be amazed at the number of people who will run up their blood pressure to get to the grocery store 30 seconds faster or are racing to get to work like it won’t be there at 8:02.   The only thing I’ve ever done that I think added more years to my life besides quitting smoking, was to learn to go with the flow behind the wheel.

      The term you're looking for is "malinger(ed)", and he didn't.  I'm not sure why Panthers fans act like jaded ex girlfriends.  The dude is clearly injury prone as his time in San Fransico also proves. It's not like he got to San Fran and stopped having problems.

      My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.
