Hoover: Panthers in 'opportunity to fail'

Recommended Posts

Fiammetta was hurt

does anyone pay attention or do we just like to randomly spout opinions as fact?

Games that Hoover didn't play-

DAL-Fiammetta played, did not start

BUF- Fiammetta started

NO- Fiammetta did not play

ATL- Fiammetta started

MIA- Fiammetta played, did not start

Fiammetta got hurt near the end of the season, and Hoover played the rest of the games.

I think its sad you missed the point.

No, I completely got the point. You said that you don't understand keeping aging players to mentor younger guys. This, in response to my questioning why the organization would not honor the final year on Hoover's contract, at the very least to metor the younger guys. And no, it's not a numbers game to keep one more body, (from a team that burned a roster spot for a KO specialist last season) especially at an element that is the essence of our offense...the running game. No, I think I got your point perfectly.

Said team let the KO specialist go too. With all the questions at DE and WR why use a spot on a "mentor"

The KO specialist was due to make over a million next season. It's no secret that JR is looking for fiscal responsibility with the lockout looming. He'd look hypocritical for hanging on to Lloyd--a million dollar guy that might see the field 4 or 5 plays a game.

As for the WR and DE scenario, that's only a couple of spots and DE may only have one addition for depth. You make it sound as if the 54 man roster is darn near set and the team is making cuts to get under the limit.

It's obvious we are not going to agree on this one, so I'm ready to leave it alone....

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
