What were you wrong about?


Awesomeness!!

Recommended Posts

Going back in history (or recently) what were you completely wrong about? Could be a draft pick you wanted that turned out to be a bum, could be a coach you wanted that turned out to be a scrub, could be anything, Panther related that you were completely wrong on.

Ex: "I thought Jimmy Clausen would be a good NFL QB"

Ex: "I thought Jimmy Clausen would at least be a serviceable NFL QB"

EX " I thought there was no way Jimmy Clausen would turn out to be a complete and utter bum"

etc etc..make it fun...

-too early for me to make an evaluation with Clausen although when I first heard his name I went into meltdown, then reconciled myself into thinking he was going to be a Pro-Bowler, back to hating him through the season, and now realizing I overreact to everything.

-I thought Dwayne Jarrett was going to pan out this year, and I though Kenny Moore was going to be a great kick returner for us at one point (wrong, wrong)

-I swear when Drew Brees was a free agent, I wanted him so bad; but knew with Jake we probably weren't going after him (not wrong)

-I thought Jonathan Stewart was a bad pick the moment it happened; thought he was going to be injury prone (kind of is, but I was definitely wrong with that one)

-I thought we should have drafted a Safety the year we drafted Beason- I think the Pats took Merriweather right before us

all in all thank god I'm not our gm; good thread btw

Post draft last year I thought Matt Moore was going to start all season while we groomed young Jimmy Clausen to be the Franchise Quarterback of the future and Steve Smith would be going back to the Pro Bowl. I am now way more depressed than I was before this thread.

Thought Matt Moore was going to continue his 4-1 start. (wrong)

Thought Bernadeau would step his game up. (wrong)

Thought Fiametta would eventually pan out. (right)

Didnt think it would be as bad as it was overall. (wrong)

Edit: I thought Otah might want to play last year. (wrong)

I thought the offensive line of 2009 would translate to the offensive line of 2010.

    • It appears that he sees things differently than the QB and OC, so Cam's advice is spot on. It isn't about number of targets, it's about quality of targets. Trust and being on the same page. BY doesn't know how to anticipate what XL is doing. And XL doesn't like where BY is placing passes. One on one film study would go a long way. More for BY than XL though. He has to adjust to XL. I really don't think XL can adjust on the fly. 
    • If the team shows improvement, then he shouldn't be in danger of losing his job - even if the record doesn't reflect. This was a very young team (with a lot of new vet starters) that overperformed last season. Somebody's doing something right. Consistency is key with so much youth. And we're potentially looking at new starters at ILB and FS. Those are positions that take time to fully understand the defense. ILB calls the front 7. Safety calls the back 4. Injuries at WR and IOL killed the offense last season. Depth needs to be upgraded. Same with Edge. I think they would have won more games if Pat Jones doesn't go down early. Be smart with the roster and draft. Trade players for assets when it's time to pay them more than they're worth - yes, that includes BY if he doesn't make a pretty big jump. That's one of the many reasons Tillis is as important as anyone to the future of this team.
    • He had heart surgery a while back he looks Fraile I hope he is okay
