It's crazy, I was predicting this mess before the preseason and all I got was poo on. I believe that one of my threads had over 40 poo emojis. Now, I'm getting pie for posting the same poo that I posted back then. You assholes owe me an apology. Lol.

I hate being right and would love to eat crow. 

 

This half this board would rather be right, than support the Panthers

We are not going winless, calm down. the Panthers have been in every game and were an fumble away from winning last week. They are not great but they ain’t that bad. 

I dont know if you remember 2001, and tbh, it's been a long time for me too lol, but it felt like every game we found creative and painful ways to lose.  But I watched every game...  every second.  I don't remember many of those games where it felt like we just got the doors blown off of us...  from memory, it felt like an awful lot were lost within a score and a few on last second plays.  It was miserable to be so close but so far away...  and that's what this team feels like.  We find ways to lose.

We literally had a 99 yard pick six, won the turnover battle, and still found a way to lose on a 4th qtr fumble that switched the momentum. 

Again, I'm not saying we'll go winless, but wins in the NFL usually hinge on one or two plays - and there are teams that find ways to win on those plays, and there are teams that find ways to lose.  This current team finds ways to lose.

it was all shady PR all along

 

Yup. But those articles...

Like I said. If you lived through watching the curtain being pulled down on JR you should have know better this time. Teams are supposed to PR like that, people just got desensitized by Rhule's bumbling no skills years and bought in. That's rough

I remember Bills fans were in the doldrums for a few years because Pegula very much looked and felt like Tepper thus far, and then he backed into hiring McDermott, Beane (all faciliated, of course, by a monumental fug up by the one and only Carolina Panthers), and then drafting Josh Allen.  But man, I think Tepper has far more fug ups than Pegula ever had, so it's hard to see him turning it around.  If he does, just like with Pegula, it's gonna be by accident.

Now to be fair, can you name a single person who at the time would have been excited for us to promote Brandon Beane, who had spent his entire career working under Marty Hurney who we couldn't wait to get rid of? I remember that being idea being completely torn to shreds when it was floated by Gantt or whoever that it was a strong consideration because it would have just been more of the same.

Actually I think there was a strong contingent of huddlers that wanted Beane at the time.  His reputation had grown over the years and everyone knew Hurney was a dead end at that point, so it seemed logical.  I wanted us to give Beane a shot.  But I could see why some were against it...

Bean did well under DG. Who made a point of getting him more involved. No idea the angles there but I remeber that much.

I think you’ve got some revisionist history. This is the only thread I could find, but I don’t see many mad people at the time about him leaving. I only wish I could the thread when he was named interim GM and they were considering keeping him full time, that one was full meltdown.

If this is true, it's 100% about Reich giving playcalling duties to Thomas. No other CHANGE can happen that will make a significant impact right away. 

Wins and losses be damned. If they keep putting Bryce in these CRAPPY situations, they are gonna ruin him. 

Brees wasn't Brees until Payton got a hold of him. Heck, Trevor wasn't Trevor until Pederson. Tua needed McDaniel. And I really don't think Purdy would be who he is without baby Shanny boy genius. 

Just saying. Guys around here act like playcalling and weapons don't matter. A QB's situation going in to the NFL is a HUGE factor to the level of success they'll have. Reich and his playcalling is not a good situation for BY, or Laviska, or Mingo, or Sanders, or Chuba, or...

      Post Draft Luke and JJ Podcast

      By GamecockSmitty4 · Posted

      Here’s a summary of the JJ and Luke podcast transcript. Opening / Bryce Young Fifth-Year Option     •    JJ: Breaking news — Panthers picked up Bryce Young’s fifth-year option at $25.9M, guaranteed, coming in 2027. Combined with his 2025 salary of ~$6M, that’s $31M over two years — called it a “no-brainer.”     •    Luke: Enthusiastic about the move. Highlighted Bryce’s improving TD/INT ratios (11/10 → 15/9 → 23/11) and the value of entering year three with Dave Canales. Noted $25M is a bargain relative to the $60M top of market. Luke’s Personal Update — Charlotte Christian Football     •    Luke: Working with Charlotte Christian school football program, which hired a new head coach. Coaches include Greg Olsen, Luke, and Greg’s dad Chris Olsen (a New Jersey State coaching Hall of Famer).     •    JJ: Jokingly quipped that Charlotte Christian’s coaching staff is “the world’s greatest” — a Fox analyst, a Hall of Famer, and the best Panthers RB ever — all coaching middle school football.     •    Luke: Praised Chris Olsen’s deep football knowledge spanning decades and his ability to connect with kids. Round 1, Pick 19 — Monroe Freeling, OT, Georgia     •    JJ: Panthers were on the clock and submitted their pick almost immediately — a sign of confidence and preparation. Freeling is 6’7”, 320 lbs, played in the SEC in a pro-style system.     •    Luke: Loved the pick. Emphasized you can never have too many quality offensive linemen. Noted Freeling’s size, athleticism, and arm length as key traits. Said the pick also reflects team’s philosophy of drafting great people, not just great players.     •    JJ: Noted reporter Darren Gantt compared Freeling favorably to Jordan Gross — bigger, heavier, and faster — as a potential franchise left tackle.     •    Luke: Pointed out that young players like Freeling still have physical development ahead of them, comparing the trajectory to Christian McCaffrey’s growth from age 20 onward. Round 2, Pick 49 — Lee Hunter, DT, Texas Tech     •    JJ: Panthers traded up from 51 to 49 (pick swap with Minnesota) to grab Hunter. Played audio from Panthers area scout Kaden McLuhan, who scouted Hunter.     •    Scout Kaden McLuhan (audio): Said Hunter’s size is immediately striking, and that everyone around him spoke glowingly about his character, energy, and love for the game.     •    Luke: Praised Hunter as a massive (6’3”, 320 lbs, ~34” arms) two-gap nose tackle who fits perfectly in the Evero defense. Compared his prospect profile to Akiem Hicks. Said having Derek Brown, Bobby Brown, Derrick Brown, Terson Wharton, and now Hunter creates varied body types that stress offensive linemen.     •    JJ: Noted Hunter ranked third among all prospects in run-stuff rate and sixth in interior pass-rush win rate — addressing a perception that he couldn’t rush the passer. Rounds 3–7 Highlights     •    Luke: Highlighted WR Brazle (3rd round, 6’4”, 437 speed, 1,000+ yards at Tennessee) as the vertical threat the offense needed. Also praised OL Sam Heck (5th round) as a technically sound player whose “short arms” caused him to fall but who has proven himself.     •    Luke: Mentioned CB Will Lee (6’1”, 33” arms) fits the Panthers’ DB prototype — big, long corners.     •    Luke: Praised S/LB hybrid Zaki Wheatley (5th round, 6’3”) as a big nickel similar to Trayvon Merek.     •    Luke: Excited about the linebacker competition between Devin Lloyd, Trevvin Wallace, and Claudin Cherless.     •    JJ: Noted Panthers had the #1 “steal/overreach” rating in the entire draft — drafting players lower than consensus big boards projected. Around the League     •    Luke: Admitted being “a little jealous” that the Miami Dolphins drafted LB Jacob Rodriguez (Luke’s favorite LB in the draft). Has personal connections to Miami’s coaching staff (Jeff Hafley, DC Shawn Dugen — a childhood teammate).     •    Luke: Also noted Miami’s selection of OT/G Kaden Proctor out of Alabama, who will likely move to guard. League Trends — Bigger Tight Ends / 12 & 13 Personnel     •    JJ: Observed the NFL saw its highest run rate in ~11 years (~52%) and a notable pivot toward big blocking tight ends in this draft.     •    Luke: Explained the cyclical nature of NFL offense/defense evolution — as defenses get smaller to match spread offenses, teams counter with bigger personnel (12/13 formations), which then forces defenses to get bigger at the nickel/“big nickel” spot. Called it an ongoing arms race.
