Should have never gotten rid of RIvera if this was the plan.....sooo much for modernizing and wasting on trade up for #1.

 

We also could have just never gotten rid of John Fox.

He doesnt have a QB to build around yet, what else can he build around?

Hard to get excited about the guy who brought your the worst run O in the NFL….talking about the run is where his mind is at.  

Going to see BY in person will bring out that kind of talk

I guess a hand-off machine is worthy of being 1st overall. It's just bad resource usage. I mean if you wanted a rock climbing vehicle, it doesn't make sense to buy drag racing wheels and motors.. Just super upsetting to witness. Even the 39th 2023 pick and 31st 2024 pick for WRs to block....ugh. 

 I feel you are right, he re-viewed some old tape and told his BFF dan- "bro only chance is running the ball and give me a 6 yr deal cause this is madness!!!"

IMO The “run the ball” philosophy makes sense based on the hand the coaches were dealt. The possibility of establishing the run successfully really may be just trying to maximize talents of guys like Icky, and minimizing the weaknesses of others. 

I hope it works. It could open up easier pass plays- takes pressure of BY, provide manageable 3rd downs for the offense, keep the ball away from the other teams offense, rest the D etc…

As the roster changes we should hopefully get a more modern pass oriented offense. I heard a lot of folks saying the offense is at least more modern as far as pre- snap motions and formations hopefully it continues to evolve.

      My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.

      Ok LT and Petersen are a cut above everyone else to me cmc and Faulk are interchangeable on this list.  though Faulk was better career wise

      Maybe faked was too strong of a word.  "Milked" may be the better way to call it.
