City Confidential: Panther on the run

To be fair I don't think Pacman has ever been implicated in a homicide, in fact I don't believe he's ever been convicted of a felony.

Not in that sense, but in the way they both kept going to strip clubs and staying in the night life.

But also Pacman allegedly told some people to shoot at some other people, I also think he is accused of being involved in a woman that got shot who was pregnant.

Don't worry gang, when Big Cat gets his transplant, and we hoist the Lombardi in Tampa the ghost will be exorcised:party:

I think for the most part it has been. Players have had some scrapes with the law in recent years, but for the most part Charlotte has some of the higher character pro athletes of any sports town.

Carruth was canned the moment he was arrested. Jones and Owens were EMPLOYED by Dallas in spite of the way they are.

Again to be fair Owens is an ass for sure, but as far as I know he's never had any run ins with the law. In fact from what I've read he's actually fairly generous in his community relations.

This show doesn't have a clue... They just said the Caruth scandel made the Hornets leave, and Richardson wanting high character guys made the team weak........ Obviously this is an old production, but what BS, if they could only see us now.

They didin't exactly say that.

They said that it changed the way the Panthers scout players, which is very true.

And it said that the Hornets left cause Charlotte didn't want to buy a new stadium.

Well as usual at this time of night I'm pretty buzzed, but it sure sounded like they implied the Caruth scandel led to the downfall of Charlotte sports from a sports crazed town to one that didn't care leading to the Hornets departure.

It also sounded like they said the Panthers were bypassing talent in fear of troublemakers, and I'm sure they said the Panthers were still in Charlotte "for now". But eh like I said I'm buzzed and probably to sensitive, who cares.

    • For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.  
    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
