I agree, and think this is a step in the right direction.  They do not hang banners in March, as you know, but the feeling of optimism is something we have not experienced in a while.  I admit, I felt optimistic when Rhule was hired, with reservations.  As it turns out, he was horrible.  I liked Gettlemen at first, but then he started sucking.  So now we have a new GM who is once again tasked with overcoming Hurney's bad choices and can kicking.  

However, with not much cap room, we found 6 (and counting) starters, if you include Bozeman.  That is huge.

I agree, but they need to hit on the QB selection. 

I was immediately sold on Stroud, but the more research I do, the more I keep wondering about Young.  Aside from his size, he checks all the boxes---I know Stroud can check boxes too....I think it will become more clear--but I tried to keep an open mind and not lock in on one decision in early March--and the more I research Young, the more I think, after his pro day, people will start favoring him,  Most of the "experts" on NFL network, including a former GM Marc Ross who is firm about it...SO CONFUSED--either might be OK, but if one fails and one succeeds, it will haunt us forever....Unless we take Levis.  Then we need the suicide hotline.

Most of us have been pissed off and very negative of the sh#t happening with the team since he took over. He has made some huge hiring mistakes that have cost this team dearly.

He appears to have learned to hire the right people and to actually let them make the important decisions. Getting out of the way and allowing the experienced football people to do their thing is paramount to having success.

Thumbs up to the changes happening and to the man for having the foresight to let it happen.

You aren’t wrong but I have to wonder why the f*ck it took so long

I do think this last week should quite some of the huddlers that have been calling for Fitt getting the axe when Rhule got fired.

Fitt has been busy!

As far as Tepper I like how he admitted guilt of giving so much power to a dumbass college coach like Rhule. IMO the jury is still out on Tepper tho as a competent owner. The guy just seems to fug something up as soon as he touches it. Whether the field issue, new facility, etc.

Let's not crown anyone yet.

There were so many people singing Tepper's praises for being aggressive when he went after Matt Rhule and kept him away from New York. Sooo many people were popping the champagne corks then.

I'm more optimistic now than then, by a long way, but we've still not played a single snap of 2023's season yet. Let's hope it goes well.

    • No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.    
    • It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
