I genuinely thought he'd be blacklisted from the NFL.

Well, it will be a long time before he gets a team to run but he can work. 

To the right person, having people that have been where you are is good because a guy who has been boss at least understands more about that than people who haven't, and will have that sort of respect for the person in that position. And probably be able to help him.

 

edit: that’s my personal perspective. I was an employee a long time then graduated into bossdom, after some years of doing that was an employee again and I can tell you I am a much better employee than I was before getting the boss experience.

I was only a boss of smaller non corporate stuff, not trying to brag.

I'm a Daniels fan.  They made a really promising swing at QB.  Also think they got great value in Newton at DT and then Sainristil and Sinnott.  Solid solid draft.  

There's good pieces, but if I was a fan, missing the coaching hire along with the shear amount of former-Panthers they've brought in would make me nervous.  There's no disputing we've been the real cellar of the league for a minute now so why reunite so many from that regime?

They've also had some shaky picks (Forbes, Allen, Dotson, etc.)...just a real roller coaster there.

 

CMC and DJ Moore are doing well in their new teams. Maybe they are banking on our old staff not knowing how to use players correctly?

As for the GMs…. I got nothing.

Fitterer was not a good GM during his time here but he's served under successful front offices before, doesn't mean he's a bad hire. 

I think Fittterer ultimately will be judged for mishandling the Burns situation. The draft selections are impossible to know how much Rhule and Tepper played a hand in

What I think happened that really polluted stuff was Tepper pushing HARD to get their franchise QB at any cost - it just has to happen NOW.  No patience. Forcing things rarely works out.

I mean I think that was Tepper. I don’t know anything I just interpret the doings that way.

    • After last season, it was the same question. And the answer most people came to was "If he doesn't make the playoffs, he's gone." He made the playoffs. No matter how it was done, we made it to the playoffs. He's safe. He's going to have a chance to keep working this out, even if next season isn't a playoff one.  I think we'll do better next year than we did this season. There's something being built here.
    • The NBA is a very fickle league. Kon is one of the hottest rookies in years and beyond just his play on the court he is a very steady competitor and that translates to the rest of the team. That has been a glaring absence with the culture of this franchise through the bulk of the LaMelo Ball years that's just being completely blunt and realistic. The enigma of LaMelo Ball is he is entering year 6 and still either red hot or ice cold. We need him to find that sweet spot. Logic dictates the Hornets will want to see this core again next year. But the clock is beyond ticking at this point. It's put up or shut up. Especially considering what the Thunder managed to do recently. I'm hopeful they can keep these wins rolling in and get some much needed playoff experience under their belts which will help substantially.
    • I think as long as the Panthers are competitive with Canales they should keep him. Pepper needs to repair his/the teams image as a place prized free agents aren't hesitant to consider. Just dont do any crazy poo for a few years.
