The questions we should be asking...

Just read the article about Sal Pal and his interview with hurney. He mentioned at the end of the interview that he feels that the Panthers are going to take Newton. He even threw out some quotes from Hurney talking about Newtons past and his drive for greatness. Here's my question...why did sal only ask about newton???

I understand he is probably going to be the pick but it seems that the media is constantly asking about him...I don't even recall a time where hurney or Rivera bring up newton without being asked first. It scares me the Hurney still doesn't know who to pick...I think that means they want to trade down and if they aren't able to then they take newton. But here's another question...how comfortable are you with a guy if you'd rather trade back than take him??? If we were 100% sold on newton I can't imagine giving that pick away bc you lose newton. Either hurney is an idiot or he is a genius...I personally have no clue which it is...

I also really really really do not think Hurney knows who he wants to pick at all

If there in fact is this much questioning around Cam in Hurney's eyes, why risk your job on it after it was just saved and you're on thin ice?

I dunno. fuc k

You ask questions as reporters not looking for direct answers but the indirect ones. What does he say and not realize it and what does he not say which is something important within itself. GMs have every bit the power to steer the conversation as well.

Will he be on thin ice if he passes on Cam and Cam is great and wins a super bowl while we are still trying to figure out how to get out of the NFC South cellar?? I sure hope so.

Hurney wants to trade out, but is starting to realize he cannot. I think the press conference today was to let everyone know that he may put the trade chart down if a deal helps the Panthers. I think he would take a second to trade down 3-4 spots.

    • Bryce has been in the NFL 3 years and still looks like a very mediocre QB. Most games are nothing but mediocre plays with a highlight reel every now and then.  He is a very INCONSISTENT QB and it’s very fustrating. He does not deserve a 5th year option, even though the Panthers and all the dumb asses in the front office will give it to him.
    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
