Saint J's eight month plan to bring the Panthers to relavence


Saint J

Recommended Posts

1. Draft Luck...no hesitation. The Panthers have held out on drafting a real franchise QB for far too long. Luck is the best QB prospect to come out in a while as well. To boot he will be adeqaute enough early on to at least bring the Panthers back to .500.

2. Hire Harbaugh, with Luck in Carolina plus a bigger paycheck it seems like a no-brainer for him. He could stay in SF but without a shot at franchise QB, retarded management, and having to live in the same area where he just spurned a whole school and fan base isn't all that attractive. At Carolina you have a nice area to raise a family, a franchise QB he coached, an owner with reasonable expectations, and a non-crazy fan base.

3. Draft pass rushing DTs and WRs. It doesn't matter who, at this point you're throwing poo at the wall and hoping it sticks. Youth and potential is something you need at these positions.

4. Sign a big time DT in free agency or trade for one. This is the only big splash move Richardson has to make. If there is a pro-bowl caliber DT on the market or available through trade find him. Even that asshole in Washington would do as he would be playing in a 4-3.

5. Sign veterans to be mentors in two positions...WR and QB. Since Smith is alll about making sour faces and not doing poo it's time to find someone who can teach the young guys like Gettis, LaFell, and your newly drafted WRs. WRs take time to develop and they can always use a good mentor. Look at Roddy White with Joe Horn or a guy like David Patten for Meachem in New Orleans. 2nd you need a veteran QB, whether that's McNabb or Kerry Collins or anyone. Just a guy to help Luck out and start for a while if necessary.

6. Cut bait with Clausen...he's not NFL material.

7. Lock up the core of the team...Kalil, Beason, Anderson, etc. Lock them up and give them their pay day. Let DeAngelo walk, he's a great RB but RB is not a position of need right now. It's something nice to have, not necessary for success.

8. Keep Ron Meeks, while some of you want to cut bait with anything and everything Fox he is not really a 'Fox guy'. He coaches above what his talent is and will give Harbaugh a solid defense to work with.

9. OL depth...find it in the draft, FA, waiver wire, where ever. In 2008 the Panthers signed and drafted everyone asshole who was 6'5 and 300ilbs to play OL. Time to do it again.

10. Beat Atlanta this week.

Good write up, why do you care
one potential benefit is that the NFCS would probably become the best division in the NFC and could be among the best in the NFL.

right now we are the guys that is holding it back. we get a real QB and good coach in here and we are close to making it real.

I'm good with this, especially when the Bucs beat you. You won't stop Blount. It would be extremely enjoyable to see the Bears and Eagles with the byes .

The Saints had their best rushing day of the year vs. Tampa and I don't remember any of their backs being a factor.

    • No, I'm starved for contention. If you can't see that and keep wanting to turn things like this back around on T-Mac, then you're just either being purposefully obtuse, or is a fan who is happy having 5-6 win seasons just because we're so used to the 3-4 win seasons and you like "just being better"
    • Chiefs had zero penalties last night
    • You mean the guy who took over a franchise that hadn't had a losing season in the previous 4 seasons... who proceeded to get his team into the playoffs in 3 of his first 4 seasons, only to win 2 games in said playoffs, to then go on to having a 54-74 career record and never won another playoff game after those first two? Who then after being fired from that job, took over a team that was 30-18 in the 3 seasons before he got the job, got into the playoffs that first season, lost their first postseasons game, and then went on to have a 6-26 record over the next 2 seasons? You're literally proving my point by bringing up someone who's claim to fame is that quote. If you just play to win the game, you're never going to be a successful franchise.  You need to play to win the game while ALSO working to make your players better.  Having the former without the latter is a picture perfect recipe to become a stagnant franchise. That's how you work towards being a winning franchise who can contend in the postseason.  And sure, having a stagnant franchise that makes the playoffs every other season is better than what we currently are, but that's not what I strive for with our Panthers, I want to actually contend for championships in my lifetime.
