I wonder if Panthers' front office are actually aware of the opponents next year....

I've just come to the conclusion that, no matter what Hurney does, people are going to think he's an idiot. Just a few weeks ago, everyone was ranting about how Hurney would be the worst GM in the league if Peppers just walked into free agency because we'd have to tag Gross due to stagnation in getting him signed. However, we lock up Gross long term for fairly cheap and tag Peppers. Now it's two weeks later, and Hurney is either the worst GM in the league for tagging Peppers when we should have just let him walk, or he's an idiot for not putting a gun to his head and forcing him to sign the contract offered to him prior. Christ.

You are 100% correct my friend.

However, that is what you get when this sites becomes invaded by a bunch of Madden Trained newbies who know absolutely nothing about running a business or a franchise.

Successful teams don't focus on their opponents as much as they focus on being the best they can be. That way they bring it regardless of who they play. Plus they know like most educated fans know, predicting who will be good or bad at this point is useless. Even supposedly great teams are only a few key injuries away from mediocrity.

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
