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.

    • Mike Davis is like yeah, why would these coaches expect me to watch film on our next opponent if I'm playing good.  Yeah, I really don't pay attention to a lot of stuff around me if I'm doing good.   also Mike Davis, how dare they give all the reps to CMC.  from just listening to that interview, I think Mike Davis likely was often in Mike Davis' way and he can't comprehend that aspect.  Even his story of why he hated people.....was weird.  He hated Steve Spurrier because Spurrier was like hey Mike, Marcus Lattimore left...and we need you to step up into that role/void and be more for us.   And Mike Davis was like, can you believe that motha trucka!! Nah Steve.  Just give me the ball and leave me alone (paraphrasing it all obviously but that was the gist). 
    • Unless he's 1,000%, just sit him an extra week at this point to let him get his legs back under him. I want to see him out there as much as the next guy, but this was a serious thing and I'd rather wait an extra week than put him out one day too early and risk something going wrong, play the long game for once.
    • God, these posts are really starting to piss me off If we're relying on Moore, Idzik, and Canales to carry that weight, then we're royally screwing over our young WR room.  It's not that those guys can't help with some of it, but these young promising WRs are going to miss out on a lot of learning that can only be provided by the vets on the team.   You do realize that coaches spend ZERO time in the locker room, right?   They are only in there just before games and at halftime, but the rest of the week, they have their own locker room, they only spend time with the players on the field and in the film room.  There is soooooo much time that you're leaving unaccounted for where players are working together to get better. Players are constantly talking about their game and how they can improve while they're in the locker room.  If you think career long special teamer David Moore is going to be able to carry that water in the locker room, then you're sorely and woefully mistaken. Even beyond that, if a coach pulls a player aside to give advice between series, that still means there are 4-5 other WRs who aren't getting individual advice, where that's normally a time a vet like Thielen is going over with them what he's seeing out there and how they can do X, Y, or Z to do A, B, or C better on the next drive.
