"Most Charlotte Fans Are Dumb"

We have paid other players and coaches a hell of a lot of $$. just because we have been relatively frugal on FA's doesn't mean we are cheap nor does it mean we will not go after some FAs.

Doesn't mean we will either...

The fact JR admittedly sat and watched a John Fox NOT follow his wishes and chose to put a bad product on the field and chose NOT to do anything about it because he'd have to pay two coaching staffs...is cheap. Teams with much less recent success and coach hires were willing to dump coaches to show they are willing to do what it takes to put a better product on the field.

PSL owners got shafted this year BECAUSE of Jerry's cheapness. He admitted this in the press conference. If you're too blinded to understand that, then this reporter or whoever is exactly correct.

Just in recent memory:

Mike Wahle

Ken Lucas

Jeff Hartwig

Maake Kemoeatu

Keyshaun Johnson

Plus our own free agents:

Dan Morgan

Steve Smith

Jake Delhomme

Jordan Gross

Chris Gamble

Julius Peppers

None were really exhorbitant FA pickups. Mike Wahle was probably the best money we ever spent looking at the outside FAs we brought in. I don't really count re-signs as FA pickups. Lucas gave us a good few years. Kemo too. Panthers aren't the "get stud outside FAs" in here while in their prime. That better suit you all?

All those free agents I listed were highly sought after when we signed them to big contracts. And if you are going to call our organization cheap, then you MUST look at the players we have re-signed to big contracts. You can't look at one side of the way we spend money without looking at the other.

    • Small Market? That would be Green Bay Market smaller than Charlotte? Then you're talking Kansas City, Baltimore, New Orleans, Indianapolis, Pittsburgh... Folks need to stop using "small market" when referring to the Panthers. It's not true when referring just to Charlotte.  It's definitely not true when combining Charlotte with additional coverage areas like Greenville/Spartanburg/Asheville or Greensboro/High Point/Winston Salem
    • Or just don't be an ass and hang out in the left lane. Just use common courtesy. The people who tailgate and be an ass are no better and its not a surprise that a lot of road rage incidents occur when inconsiderate people and assholes cross paths. Just make an effort not to be either. "Not allowing the bully to bully you" is also being an inconsiderate ass to the people behind the "bully" who would also like you to GTFO of the left lane.
    • It was completely disgusting and the most obvious fix I’ve ever witnessed. Deflating. It’s probably gone on for decades but high def TV has truly outed the egregious ‘officiating’. When was the last time a small market team was allowed to win a SB?  Offensive holding is it, and it’s so predictable. 2nd and 7 turns in to 2nd and 17. Defense pins their ears back, covers the slot guy and TE roaming the middle, and watches for the WR/RB screen. D line needs to maintain gap integrity. The deep shot to the WR down the sideline is a low percentage play so no real worry there. Most average O lines won’t be able to convert.  Loser getting too close to FG range in a close game? Holding. Winner needs a short field? Holding. DCs love them some obvious passing downs. Narrows down the playbook and significantly puts the odds in their favor. Put a team in 2nd/3rd and long all day and they are NOT going to win that game. It would be interesting to do a statistical analysis of the relationship of holding calls and game outcomes.  This is where having skill position people that can go yard on any given play is so valuable.
