I hope Fox and Hurney watched Hard Knox tonight

Rex Ryan said it best:

" Last year we were under the radar and thats a great place to be...... F#CK THAT! The best place to be is when expectations are high! Get used to it because its always going to be that way! Now we got to prove everyone right! We know we're better than you we dont give a damn if you know it or not. We dont give a damn if you give us your best game or not we're going to beat the hell out of you!"

God I love this man! No wonder the panthers have been so inconsistent. They are too afraid to want to be good. They only wanna fly under the radar when no one expects anything then hide like pussies when expectations are high. Martty Hurneys interview on WFNZ last week just made me sick to my stomach. "we dont want to be an organization that gets attention. We want to fly under the radar blah blah blah blah". F#CK that! This team needs a leader like Rex Ryan that isnt afraid of high expectations. One that isnt afraid of national attention. One that will wash away the p#ssy mindset that John Fox and Marty Hurney have poisoned this team with. Lets keep our fingers crossed that we can find the next Rex Ryan next year after Fox is gone.

Everyone has a different way to approach the game. Ryan looks great saying that stuff because they overachieved last year. If they underachieve this year I don't think he'd be singing that tune. He is the same coach that said something like they didn't have a snowball's chance in hell to make the playoffs...then when they did make the playoffs he proclaimed them the favorites. So...His "we are the champion" attitude gets lost during the season when they are struggling.

Its not just the jets. The patriots considered last year a complete failure after being humiliated in the first round of the playoffs. I was listening to Falcons camp yesturday on SIRIUS and the whole organization considered last year a failure even though they went 9-7. Martty Hurney is still talking about how they went 12-4 two years ago as if they won the super bowl. More proof that the panthers have had a firm commitment to mediocrity under Fox/Hurney.

Come on Bobby, Ryan is an idiot that had no idea that he was in contention for making the playoffs, and then proceeded to cry about how much he loved his team.

He should have considered himself fortunate to have the ability to be confident in making the playoffs again within that tough division.

If he fails to make the playoffs he cannot use this strategy again, He should take lessons or learn from the mistakes of his daddy, Buddy.

They went to the AFC title game with a rookie QB. That in itself is an accomplishment but Rex Ryan considers it a failure because they didnt win the SB. Thats exactly the kind of mindset the panthers need.

You know damn well Rex Ryan would be the best HC in panther history if he was here.

Eh, let's see Rex Ryan be a HC for more than a season before we crown him the god of NFL.

Besides, the way that Fox and Hurney address the media has no bearing on what goes on in the locker room. Do you honestly think anyone in the organization is happy about going 8-8? Do you really think Jon Beason and Steve Smith aren't willing to do whatever it takes to win a championship? This is the NFL, no one is content with mediocrity. Just because they don't go mouthing off in the press doesn't mean they aren't committed to winning.

Yes, I actually beleive the organization is happy with being mediocre as long as they produce a winning season once in awhile. Thats been proven when they keep going on and on about how Fox has never had a double digit loss season as if thats some sort of accomplishment.

    • It's actually interesting you mention Richardson because I've seen it suggested here Bryce will have 500 or more rushing yards and 5-10 rushing touchdowns this year. And if big Anthony Richardson can get hurt carrying the rock what's that tell you about the practicality of thinking Bryce won't?
    • I mean, I get why the media and some NFL and Carolina fans are saying that we don't have a real chance, but as many Huddlers should know, we won't know what we really have in this team until probably late September or early October at the earliest. And I'm not trying to be a homer, I'm just looking at things historically. Obviously I'm also looking at Bryce's "palatable" improvement the last half of last season (including being the catalyst for hanging with and nearly beating the Super Bowl participants), and the new additions that we've acquired overall. I'm also looking at the beginnings of a culture change--even if perceptibly subtle--to some degree indeed may take a foothold if things start falling the right way. But, overall, I'm still cognizant of the realization that things could just go south and that perhaps that Bryce could revert and flop, or that D & D (Dan and Dave) are not the answer, but I still am not ready to say "we're far away." Hell we could be close, albeit with growing pains, but even if we're on the course to bring legit in 2026, then guys like Ramsey would be welcome additions this season. That's just my take on it. I don't think we'll know that we're far away until some point in the season. If we can compete in the South...who knows?
    • You guys remember when the narrative on here was that Bryce would be chronically injured in the NFL due to his size and Anthony Richardson would be super durable due to his? You remember when the narrative was that Bryce was physically incapable of throwing a ball further than 20 yards in the NFL? You remember “I’ll stop complaining when he throws for more than 200 yards and looks like an NFL quarterback”? You remember when 60 sacks was his fault and not the offensive line, slow WRs, and terrible scheme? Pepperidge Farm remembers. It will always be something for some people. Whatever insanity they come up with will be quickly dropped to move on to the next thing. Bryce could have an MVP Super Bowl winning season and they would complain that we can’t run the tush push with him. It will always be something.
