not sure, I got some friends that are Hawk fans......Charlie Whitehurst blew but many were wanting him to get a bigger shot. The guy we watched in the playoffs ain't the guy we would be getting.

With his rash of injuries, I'm not sure how much longer Hasselbeck can hold up?

Even if it is Barkley, Luck, or whoever...I think next year's draft will be better to get a QB. If we pick one this year with that 1st pick, we are settling for what is out there.

So you guys are content with sucking enough to pick in the top 5 again?:confused: The front office has brainwashed the simple minded.:frown2: Especially a Tarheel fan we don't do mediocrity.

So let's say Luck regresses like Locker did... then what?

Luck looked great... so did Heath Schuler, David Carr, and Ryan Leaf. I was very excited about the prospect of getting Luck but despite all the hype there are no assurances that he has the ability to be a successful QB in the NFL.

There's no sense in pinning your hopes on a guy who has yet to take a snap in the NFL.

I think he wouldn't be too bad. C'mon guys, we only need a QB for one year until we draft Luck

Excellent idea. D.A. would be very successful here.

By successful, I mean he'll be bad enough to make sure we will have the #1 pick to get Luck!

Apples and oranges man. There is no comparison with Luck and those guys. Luck could sit out the entire season and he'd still go #1 overall.

I'm with you on the no pinning your hopes on him though. I've moved on from the possibility of drafting him. I'll joke about it every now and then but there is about a 1% chance he'll ever be a Panther. Sucks, but it's probably the truth.

Idea makes me cringe, honestly.

If that was the decision they made, I'd hope they were right, but I'd likely have to chant "I trust Rivera" repeatedly to deal with that one.

Yeah, it would be hard to swallow but I would keep reminding myself of the success Chud had with Anderson in Cleveland.

      Should Dave Canalas be on the HOT seat??

      By OldhamA · Posted

      I think you have to factor in that we're still not an attractive proposition for Head Coaches. You're not getting the cream of the crop if you fire Canales a year after winning the NFC South, especially considering the situation he walked into.

      Yeah, I was about to say I hope he's doing okay health-wise because he's not looking good in that pic.

      Honestly, I dont  think he should be on the hot seat yet. A bad start to next year, then yes. Despite our mistakes on play calling this past season, we played better than anticipated overall. Bryce showed improvement and maturity (although still not nowhere close to our expectations). Better record and 2-15 to 5-12 to 8-9. Despite what we feel the stats dont lie we are improving by 3 wins a year. Could 11-6 be our expectation. That's a high bar but at the rate we are going, thats what its looking like. We all want to see a 5-12 to a 13-4 record but we are methodically moving up. Success doesnt happen overnight (well in most cases).  IMO we are struggling mostly on the defensive end. LB and edge are our biggest weakness. I see Bryce making improvements (even though I was a Bryce hater) next year. Biggest concern is LT on offense. How to fix this? We need a big name edge or to trade up and get a big name edge or LB and pick up one in FA and draft one. Also if in the 3rd we can pick up a TE. Dont know if Sanders is the answer or Tremble (even though I love Trembles blocking and power after the catch). If these two can get their footwork together they would be great. Maybe all they need is a better TE coach. And if Brooks can stay healthy and be the back we thought he could be, man that would be great
