Maybe I dont understand how these things work, but this strikes me as odd.  Wouldnt working with burns people to get a deal done be priority a,b and c since the season ended?

I dont think so.  If he wont budge on the whole 30m per thing then there isnt much to talk about.

Didn't watch just going off tweets. Dunno if I can stomach a full Panthers press conference anymore

I watched them for you. Dave came off as a lamb being lead to slaughter while dropping coach speak quotes. Dan looked off the meth and said what every single GM says - " want tough, smart, guys that are all football". Each feel WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYY over their heads about the rebuild ahead. More I see about caralas, the less I like the hire. I hated the rhule hire, its not that bad, but right now Id want evero leading this rebuild rather than a guy seahawks never gave a OC job too after 14 years there..... ALLL while he was "loved" by pete and staff......like what is that poo??? Only the panthers gave him a call to interview for HC and thats with carales qualifying for the rooney diversity hire. 

I was thinking about win/lost over/under and this made me put the number at 3.5. *bonus- i think smart money is the under*

Dan has to draft like the best GM in NFL history the next three years(missing a 2nd next....) and canalas needs to figure out how to be a NFL HC while being one. Just feels like this will get feel ugly fast, just my honest feel right now.

Plus Canales wants to call plays on top of learning on the job...His head is already spinning and he hasn't even had a practice yet. And he was pretty honest about it, and about the fact that he couldn't afford to turn the job down, "betting on himself" and whatever. Saw that money and said sure I can fix Bryce! lol

Yea, it has a bad feel about it. I get it, once you look at the roster, watch the tape, know the investment they have in young.....its a lose/lose deal. If morgan and caralass pull it off within three years, build a fuging heavens tall statue of each next to sam mills. 

I dont blame him one bit, take that 6 year multi-million lotto ticket. I just dont see him being able to over-come the least talented roster, no depth, no young talent, few great picks, and you are forced to play young with the hope hes turns into a NFL QB...... This job will take years off his life....dave better find him one of these fast-

well, I don't walk away from that talk/plan of action thinking that our new HC believes Bryce Young was a #1 overall give up the farm type QB.   

Any HC in 2024 that is putting his emphasis on running the rock and seeing what happens imo doesn't believe they drafted  someone that has "it".  

 

I wouldn't read too much into it. We've been saying since last year got that we have to get some semblance of a run game and play action going for Bryce to have a chance. Tepper ran Reich out of town over it. I could have told you that was going to be the next coach's philosophy.

    • I’m honestly not trying to argue with you or talk bad about Scourton, I like him and I’ve watched all of his Purdue stuff/videos you linked previously. Just like I’ve watched all of Princely’s Florida stuff I’m only pointing out the weight thing because I’m excited about the idea of him being 255-260 and being more of a stand up edge here in Carolina like he was at Purdue versus at A&M And like you, I have a crap load of experience doing the whole cutting/weight/fitness thing and I know how crappy/sluggish I feel when I’m holding as little as an extra 8-10lbs of unnecessary weight. So for Scourton to come out and say he’s 255-260 now and feels good that’s exciting based on what he’s put on film at 280 and not feeling his best 
    • I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game. They've created a nearly unending list of "what ifs". Hell, every HS, college, and pro team out there has a long list of them. It's also a good reminder that there's no such thing as a routine major injury. Even though sports medicine has improved dramatically in recent decades, major injuries are still somewhat of a coin flip on how a guy is going to emerge from it.
    • I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
