So maybe they were right.

This is not a "I told you so thread" at all. Cause I had some doubts.

However, maybe Hurney and JR were not being 100% cheap, and were being honest when they said that they thought that they had talent at the WR position when they were asked about bringing in a veteran.

Maybe we still should have, maybe we would be 2-4, or 3-3. But maybe not.

Its still very early, and it is only 1 good game by Gettis and LaFell, but I believe these guys showed why, during training camp, Hurney thought they could get the job done with competent QB play.

Maybe Hurney CAN draft a WR. Either way, he stuck to his guns, good for him.

I am optimistic, but I know the pessimists will say that JR was being cheap, and it just worked out for them for one week.

I am willing to go through the growing pains with these receivers, as long as I see progress.

If these guys can continue to get better, which is a BIG if. We may have a solid, cheap core for years to come.

This is why you dont judge rookies after 5 weeks, but at the same time this is why you dont say that they are gonna be great after ONE game. But, we do know what they are capable of.

We beat the worst team in the league by a field goal and all of a sudden Fox and Hurney are gods again.

lol

You said it before I could...

SF is garbage. We'll be lucky to be 4-12 this year and after a loss to the Seahawks, those that were hating on Fox/Hurney earlier will start to do it again.

      Emanuel McNeil Warren + Jacob Rodriguez

      By RIPTreyLance · Posted

      Do you see the vision?  As of now our Carolina Panthers don’t have an identity. We are not an offensive powerhouse and on defense we only started getting it together towards the end of the year last year. In my opinion we are much closer to having an incredible defense that scares the daylights out of people. I say the answer is simple and we fully commit to that possible identity.    Emmanuel McNeil Warren (E man)  This guy is like a shark lurking around ready to attack anyone. Fearless. He is easily a top 20 talent in my eyes, and the only reason he isn’t more talked about is because he’s from Toledo. Do your due diligence as panther fans and watch his tape I beg you. Once you’re done watching let me ask you this, if you dropped E - Man into the strong safety spot on the Buckeyes, he isn’t being talked about as one of the best prospects we’ve seen in some time given the skill set you see with this guy? I think so. Put his name on the card and turn it in at 19.    Jacob Rodriguez  High effort, High energy, High IQ guy that flies around the field. We all know Jacob at this point. My only concern is he’s a little bit too good and I’m not sure he makes it to us at our pick in the second. With the additions of Jacob and E- Man I think our defense goes to top 5 in the league. We would have a duo of linebackers that rival anything we’ve had in our past. I’m not a GM so I don’t know what the possible answer could be, but if there’s a way we can comfortably trade up in the second to secure this guy I think we find a way to do it.    Spend the rest of our picks fixing the O - line.    Thoughts Panthers fans? Who’s the ideal duo for yall?

      It is time to Consider the Likelihood of WR at #19

      OL is arguably much more important to the success of a young QB. (Or any QB)

      Didn’t get around to watching this one but looks like Pistons played their starters and actually tried…? Unlucky that they sit vs Magic, etc and try vs us. Hopefully we can beat the Heat and then Magic or 6ers with no Embiid. BUT if not, the NBA really should give us the lottery win this year like they did Mavs last year. Another high pick could be our final missing piece and have us as legit top contenders next year and going forward if we’re healthy. Or trade it for a Giannis type
