Record under GM Marty Hurney by the numbers


Sam Mills Fan

Recommended Posts

Cumulative regular season/playoff record since he became the GM in 2002: 80-79 (50.3%)

Past 5 years (2006-2011): 39-51 (43.3%)

Past 3 years (2009-2011): 12-29 (29.2%)

Past 2 years (2010-2011): 4-21 (16.0%)

Worst special teams in football in the past 20 years, worst defense in the league this year, and just one torn ACL in Cam's knee from having the worst offense. A record that gets worse and worse as you go along, only 1 game above .500 under his watch even when you count the great years prior to 2006.

...And people say this guy is a good GM?

from 2008-2010 hurney did a horrible job and we're feeling the effects of it today

bad drafting, no FA acquisitions worth a poo, bad trading, etc.

Jeff Otah, Everette Brown, Jimmy Clausen. ...those were players we traded up to get and/or our first picks in a draft. When your philosophy is to build through the draft you're not going to win picking like that. If we draft Kalil or Martin in 2012 (because, well byron bell is like the worst OT ever) we'll be replacing the guy we traded up for just a few years prior, and we might have to do it because byron bell is terrible and should be a 2nd stringer in the CFL. This is how other positions that need help (e.g. the entire defense) get ignored.

He's not. He got a rookie Head coach and bet the farm on a rookie QB #1 draft pick. Always a crap shoot.

But then he picked one that can't run an NFL style offense which means we keep our running backs running out of the pistol. AWESOME!

Aj green and later draft QB = win!

Matt Moore + Steve Smith + AJ Green and better O-line = win.

Hope he can figure it out next year. Hope Cam can figure out how to run an NFL style offense. Stewart's going to be out though.

But he drafts those awesome 7th round picks that wouldn't start for any other team.

He also leads the league in drafted players retained, never mind how bad they are, they are starting and that's what matters.

Oh and those awesome FA pick ups, yup, good for 5-6 penalties per game and can't protect Cam for poo.

Don't fug with Hurney though, he may go on a tear and piss away more 1st and 2nd round picks.

I've only seen the actual pistol offense like, twice this year. You're confusing it with the zone-read option offense.

Also, having the #4 defense in the NFL has helped Andy Dalton + AJ Green a tremendous amount.

Having the 27th ranked defense has not helped Cam.

    • I hope Bryce balls out. Wouldn't bet the farm on it though. Morgan has to be practical though. He was placed into a situation where he was compelled to give Bryce a long look. There really haven't been any more practical options due to who has been available at the position. The Panthers had already put their chips in with Bryce, so putting more chips in by borrowing against the future and stacking on that by borrowing against the future without really having the requisite draft capital was a nonstarter. We could either dump Bryce and go dumpster diving for known and unknown JAGs at the position, or take out chances and let it play out with Bryce and hope for acceptable returns. Due to what looks like some good moves in the draft and free agency, it appears like we're finally getting into a position where we can take a swing again if need be without destroying the core of the team. I understand that you'll believe it when you see it, but Dan is gonna move on if Bryce can't cut it. There are too many professionals lives and careers tied to Bryce to simply accept the status quo. 
    • Football is the ultimate team sport. No sport is more dependent on others for your success - including coaching. I don't know if Bryce is the guy, but I do know this has been a very bad team all around since he got here. One of the worst o-lines and coaching staffs I've ever seen his rookie year. One of the worst defenses and receiving groups (including TEs) I've ever seen his 2nd season - with a rookie HC and OC. An improving WR group his 3rd season mostly due to a rookie. The only other WR of note didn't really play well until after the 10th game of the season due to injury. Still no receiving TE to speak of. And lost games because of the worst pass rush in the NFL. And the only speed he's ever had on the field was DJ Chark. A washed up DJ Chark that played here one year and has had 31 yards receiving since leaving.  Carolina had no business moving up for a QB in 2023. They weren't ready. Especially if it meant trading your only good WR to do it. Now finally there's potential on defense. Potential on o-line. Potential at WR, including some actual speed in a game where speed kills. If BY falls on his face this season, then he has to own it. Situation may not be perfect, but it's at least NFL average across the board. I won't beat him up for being bad in bad situations on a bad team. But a 4th year QB has to be able to control the offense and make players/coaches right. The team looks good enough on paper to show what he can do now.   
    • Mr. 0-2 every year to start the season in his career. Last year was the first year he ever played a week 3 game.
