There is a disconnect with coaching and management

I know it is easy to blame players and much of it is justified but I think much of the blame lies with management and coaching this season.It started with the draft,we had an obvious need at WR so management should either draft one or get one or pick up a free agent but we did neither.We traded a 2nd round pick for a project at WR and he is not even on the active roster.Hurney must be on a longer rope than many of us believe or we would have drafted a producer.In doing so he threw Fox under the bus it appears to me.Regardless of what many say JR owes the fans that purchase the tickets an attempt for a winning season.

Fox and his puppet OC owe the fans and the players play calling that is greater than that of High School Ball.Ok he wants to dominate by running the ball....I get it.. but play action on 3rd and 8....running the same play on 1st and 2nd down every time on every posession I dont get.It is like he wants to be fired before the season is over.

I couldn't agree with you more my friend. Our problems start at the top, not the bottom. I have been saying this poo for years, including Delhomme's play-off self destruction. I do not blame that entire game on him. I blame Fox for not doing then what he did yesterday while we still had a chance not to mention A RUNNING GAME!

you can't do poo on the field with 1 receiver.. it's that simple. you're running game is affected and you're only WR is shut down.. luckily they blitzed and Smitty does what Smitty does best, beat his man... still, he had 2 receptions..

bad oline play or not.. defenses can pin their ears back and make your OLine look average.. it's all a chess match and when you have the opponent somewhat figured out, you can play faster.. much faster..

we have no answers, because we didn't prepare in the right fashion.. we haven't done that for 5 years or more..

      Schedule Release: Leaks and Rumors

      Dan Morgan on the Rich Eisen show

      By TD alt · Posted

      I hope Bryce balls out. Wouldn't bet the farm on it though. Morgan has to be practical though. He was placed into a situation where he was compelled to give Bryce a long look. There really haven't been any more practical options due to who has been available at the position. The Panthers had already put their chips in with Bryce, so putting more chips in by borrowing against the future and stacking on that by borrowing against the future without really having the requisite draft capital was a nonstarter. We could either dump Bryce and go dumpster diving for known and unknown JAGs at the position, or take out chances and let it play out with Bryce and hope for acceptable returns. Due to what looks like some good moves in the draft and free agency, it appears like we're finally getting into a position where we can take a swing again if need be without destroying the core of the team. I understand that you'll believe it when you see it, but Dan is gonna move on if Bryce can't cut it. There are too many professionals lives and careers tied to Bryce to simply accept the status quo.

      Football is the ultimate team sport. No sport is more dependent on others for your success - including coaching. I don't know if Bryce is the guy, but I do know this has been a very bad team all around since he got here. One of the worst o-lines and coaching staffs I've ever seen his rookie year. One of the worst defenses and receiving groups (including TEs) I've ever seen his 2nd season - with a rookie HC and OC. An improving WR group his 3rd season mostly due to a rookie. The only other WR of note didn't really play well until after the 10th game of the season due to injury. Still no receiving TE to speak of. And lost games because of the worst pass rush in the NFL. And the only speed he's ever had on the field was DJ Chark. A washed up DJ Chark that played here one year and has had 31 yards receiving since leaving.  Carolina had no business moving up for a QB in 2023. They weren't ready. Especially if it meant trading your only good WR to do it. Now finally there's potential on defense. Potential on o-line. Potential at WR, including some actual speed in a game where speed kills. If BY falls on his face this season, then he has to own it. Situation may not be perfect, but it's at least NFL average across the board. I won't beat him up for being bad in bad situations on a bad team. But a 4th year QB has to be able to control the offense and make players/coaches right. The team looks good enough on paper to show what he can do now.
