“Keep a close eye on Belichik to Carolina”

That's all we need, another Frikkin' Yankee coming down here to "fix" things for us. 

Over It Whatever GIF by Rodney Dangerfield

Honestly, why would Belichick come here where the cupboard is bare when he will most likely have his pick of QBs in the upcoming draft since none of the other contenders for the crapfest award will need a new QB. 

And honestly, as bad as his team has been for the last couple of years, they have more key players in place than we do.

Bill's not going anywhere and we look as attractive to him as fully awake colonoscopy.

If it means getting rid of Fitt, I'm for it.

I don't doubt Tepper would go all in on a Belichick, O'Brien & Young combo. It would be an entertaining experiment. Young credited O'Brien with his success in college. May be the only shot Young has at success in the NFL.

I would want to take a Walsh-McVay path to a championship team. That wouldn't include Young. Tepper isn't dumping Young. Just like he isn't dumping Hubbard, TMJ, Mingo & Tremble.

I wouldn’t be surprised. What I seen in that press conference yesterday was a man who mentally was like “yeah, you were all right, I’m going to fix it- do we really need to talk about it?”

I think he felt defeated and was trying to be professional by having the press conference but he was just deflecting his way through it to make it as least embarrassing as he could. 
 

I am not going to be surprised one bit if he brings in a HC/GM type or a “President” to run the day to day so he can pull himself somewhat out of the accountability realm and play charity hero instead of football villain.

Gotta love the state of “reporting” these days. Let your imagination run wild, post some scenario you dreamed up while sitting on the toilet in an article behind a paywall. Create a headline that makes people think it’s a real story. Get re-tweeted and shared until the collective conscious believes your toilet fantasies are real.

    • 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.
