There is no one to put at LT.  This team is void of talent.  If we don’t move on from this staff we are going to be terrible until we get someone here that knows what they are doing.

Hurney and Rivera were WAY better than these clowns and that is scary stuff

Rhule was better…that is what is scary. Tepper literally makes this team worse and Worse and worse.

It's getting old watching guys show promise as rookies then either regress or never develop.

Fug it, just run the old blocking scheme. At worse you build up his value for a trade if they want to continue their dream build. Hell the entire line would probibly improve.

We have a bunch of maulers trying to execute a finesse zone blocking scheme and it looks like how you'd expect that to look.

Yup. And suddenly the run game would improve. Short term fix but what low hanging fruit when there are so little positives to be had.

Rivera is about to be available soon.  Maybe even Hurney.  Hell, Gettleman is out there.

Might as well do the Charlotte thing and re-hire a coach or GM that you previously fired (Marty Hurney, Steve Clifford, Dom Capers).

Serious question, can you get hired at McDonalds after previously being fired by McDonald’s? 

Charlotte pro sports is something else.

We're just trying to find an apple on the ground that isn't totally rotten at this point. 

We fans are sure. I haven't seen much beyond the OC calling plays to suggest they get how bad this is and make moves that big like changing back to a mauler apraoch. Too early from this game but I completely expect more of the same. Tepper is too clueless to understand anything and it's not an approach any of this staff would willingly do as far as I know. It's more of the same until something breaks the cycle.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
