Panthers actively shopping for a WR

The crap this team does makes me think of that woman on Tik Tok who says “everyone is so creative!” When watching ppl cook the most absurd and nasty food. She watches in horror but puts on a brave face and makes sarcastic jokes about how good the food looks. That’s how I feel about this team: “Fitt and Tepper are so creative!”

KB is still such a huge "what if" story for me if he hadn't lost his mom and blew out his knee. Maybe he could've overcame one or the other but it just seemed like the combo of the two was too much. By all accounts he was the best player on the field that training camp he blew out his knee and second place wasn't even close.

I'll never forget that grab he made in perfect double coverage between the two best DBs in the game.

 

 

It really was a sad situation. I did not like everybody piling on him when he was going through all of that. Because from first hand experience of losing my mom last year, your whole brain feels like it gets rewired. Nothing is the same after that. And like you said, the combo of his mom dying AND tearing his ACL and having to reflect on whether you'll be able to play NFL ball again probably put that man into stroke stress levels. I truly hope he's doing alright now.

Fitts got rid of top RB in the league and one of the top WRs in the league from our roster over the last year.  He took that draft capital and drafted a QB who now struggles due to bad supporting cast around him.  We could of had CMC, DJ Moore and Richardson on offense right now and still have all our draft picks.

except Richardson went 4th overall and we were supposed to pick 9th. Could have just gotten the best player in the entire draft though(Jalen Carter)

Tepper/Fitt is a dynamic duo.

 

Worst Owner/GM dup in the history of football.

I think we correctly identified that we were going to be too low at #9 to land one of the top QB prospects. But I do think that we fooled ourselves into that giant trade up because we thought we had a much better core roster than we actually did have and that we could piece together the remainder with mid-level FAs and we could absorb the hit of losing all those premium draft picks. That evaluation is looking not so good at them moment.

Tepper for sure is a horrible football owner, but I'm going to give Fitterer one more offseason to prove himself.   This is his first year without Rhule and since Rome wasn't built in a day, I'll afford him one more swing at this.  If this team is still basement dwelling next season, it will be time for Scott to pack up his things and leave.  Yes, even a mid-season dismissal if it's going that bad.

BPA needs to be a staple here for the next 5 seasons. this roster is legit awful at every single spot.

Funny how most of you changed your tune. I remember saying we needed a #1 WR in the off-season and people were like nah we cool we got Mingo and TMT.

 

 

Many were saying signing DHop would hinder the progression of Mingo and TMJ, lol

It ain’t going to slide down easy if it ain’t cheesy

    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it. 
    • If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
