Morgan got his guy. Perhaps we should all rejoice. 

We can at least fool ourselves into thinking that Morgan told Tepper--who we all know wanted Johnson--to effectively "put a sock in it."

In Morgan we trust, until proven otherwise.

I've done the "convince myself to get on board" thing too many times already.

I'm burnt out on it 😕

You shined Scott Fitterer's shoes more than anyone else in the Carolinas. There's no reason you can't be at least optimistic we didn't hire a retread.

As always Tepper and his wife are the wildcard here. No argument.

Nah, I just said he needed more time. Of course, that went out the window when Frank Reich was fired.

But as always, I know it's easier for you to argue against your misrepresentations of my positions than my actual positions.

I think that we'll hear plenty of optimism---optimism that seems delusional---about Bryce Young and how much Canales loves and believes I him (and how Morgan loves and believes in Young as well at his presser).  

Playing Devil's advocate, should he come in and say something like?...... "this whole oraganization totally blows! The owner is an egotistical jackass, and the starting QB is a noodle armed munchkin"

Good luck to the guy, he's started out the job as the captain of a ship that's three feet below the functional water line. He's got a helluva job ahead of him with limited resources, a potentially meddling ownership and a fanbase that has been bitten twice already.

It's going to have to see what he can turn out there before I'm able to really get behind this. But hey, surprise me man. 

Once upon a time I was like who's John Fox? And this guy Delhomme? He's a nothing burger, why did we grab him?

Sure would be nice to go on a wild ride like that all over again.

My big concern here Is that what everybody knew we needed was a guy who could/would tell David Tepper to butt out of this hiring decisions.

Canales is arguably the guy with the least leverage of any candidate to do that.

Fair, but I’m at least a little optimistic that Tepper is listening to Dan Morgan. Morgan has the extensive relationship with Canales.

I think you need a middle ground option between love it and indifferent.

I like the hire and I feel optimistic and think he can do good things here if Morgan is the right guy and the Tepper's can quit meddling so much. I'm glad we went this route instead of a retread. That's my main takeaway.

This is me as well.  He wasn't my top choice, but I am definitely intrigued.  I wanted a younger offensive guy that wasn't a rethread so he checks those boxes.  Spending over a decade under Pete Carroll is a nice box to check as well.

Brother all we gave him was time and each time we were worse off for it. All his wheeling and dealing only amounted to the darkest days in the history of our franchise.

If you gave him the benefit of the doubt and tons of rope there's no reason to not at least give Canales a season to show us something.

      Moton Meets the Press

      By TD alt · Posted

      One thing about it, he's not thinking about retiring. I found it odd that some Huddlers were taking rumors and running with them, imagining a slow down and "up-playing" injuries. Moton feels great and is still in his prime according to him, and his game is still indicative of his thoughts.  Sure, it may ultimately come down to economics, but I am sure that everyone involved is motivated to keep him in Charlotte.

      Moton Meets the Press

      By CmC2k · Posted

      I think the knee stuff with Moton has been blown way out of proportion. The exact quote was “It’s chronic stuff. Most linemen deal with it. But it’s just figuring out what we can do to make sure it’s limited and I’m still able to explode off it, which right now I can and I feel like I can in the future,” After a while, you start learning more about it and what can we do to make sure it’s as little of an issue as possible. I feel like I’m moving like I was when I was younger.” I don't view that as a guy who's saying his knees are on their last leg I see that as a 10-year NFL olineman saying that obviously after 10 years of playing a really physical sport, he's never truly gonna be 100% healthy again and he's gonna need to spend more time with the training staff to ensure his body can continue to perform at a high level. I think Moton has another 3 to 5 years left if he wants to continue playing.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By kass · Posted

      So much crying. Tiresome. All of you should have had enough time to come to terms with the team picking up his 5th year...
