Darin Gantt takes position with PFT

This is what I was thinking as well. Either PFT got more credible, or Gantt is no longer credible. Don't know which way to lean.

99% of what PFT does is post links to other peoples articles.....how much credibility do you need to do that?

Yes, I realize some of it is speculative BS to rile up people to get more clicks and ad revenue but that part is so obvious you can filter it out.

I think the PFT hate comes from Florio's (often dumb) commentary... when they just report the news, they're pretty good.

I think Gantt's presence will increase their quality not decrease his... he's a good reporter. Hell his updates on twitter were usually way better than the normal Panthers stuff online.

we will finally see if Gantt is a reporter at all.

as a beat writer he traded loyalty for leaks = truly lame and totally filtered, white hat reporting

as a whatever the hell he was after that he was a bitter twitter with a bit of an axe to grind = less filtered, grey hat info. dump

as a PFT source we will see his chops. PFT is a black hat prognosticating bottom feeder who has to take risk to generate respect. I am not optimistic for him in this arena but it is up to him to show us what kind of true skill he has as an independent pundit.

    • Question to the posters on this thread because you are knowledgeable--I love watching and pull for the Canes, but I never played so I don't have the understanding I had when I played football then watched it.  Having said that, Do you think we are weak at Center?  I see the team to be pretty strong on the wings, promising defense, and weak at Goalie.  It would be ideal if the Canes had 1 more position to upgrade, not 2.  I don't think you can count on Anderson to play a full season and he is 35.  However, are we solid at Center in your view?
    • Couldn't agree more, Kooch is erratic and Freddy is fragile, maybe save the remaining cap space for a goalie stud at the deadline
    • There is one play that sold me-- it was around 2:38, I think.  It was 4th and 1 and the QB telegraphed and threw the ball out wide to TMac.  He had no blocking (the TE was very late) and four defenders collapsed on TMac behind the LOS. They seemed to know it was coming.  He got hit behind the LOS and battled through several hits to get three yards.  THAT play showed me his fire.
