Why the Hurney Hating after Giants loss?

Honestly, why? I realize the fan base has had a love/hate relationship with Hurney for years now and he has his detractors, but honestly, our team is no different talent-wise than it was after the Saints game and all of a sudden after one bad loss it's Hurney's fault for being a terrible GM?

What happened against the Giants had nothing to do with Marty Hurney. We have a good enough team to win. The coaching staff was the problem; we came in unprepared and soft with a predictable gameplan.

Hurney has made his share of mistakes, sure, but are why does this loss make him suddenly so much worse as a GM? Blame the coaching staff, not the GM. We have a playoff-caliber team - when they play to their potential.

When they don't, that's on Rivera, not Hurney.

Because alot of peeps think that we keep changing our coaches but it never changes the mindset so maybe its time to go to the next rung up the ladder. So need a scapegoat and I have hated him for a while. Not sure what people are thinking.

It's not coaching when our weaknesses that Hurney refuses to acknowledge keep getting exposed time and time again

It's not our weaknesses that are the problem, it's that our strengths haven't lived up to the hype. The OL, for example, was viewed as a strength coming into the season, and has been awful so far. The linebackers as well, and the running game has yet to really get going.

All perceived strengths coming into the season that have struggled so far. That's why we're losing. And that's on the coaching staff, not Hurney.

      Veteran CB trying out for Panthers

      I like Jaycee a lot and appreciate his leadership but to say he's above Ramsey right now is based on hopium let's be realistic. He's got a great deal to prove this season. I’m hoping to see that he firmly establishes himself amongst his peers.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      It’s amazing how simple it is. When you are winning 2-7 games for 7 straight years, you’d think people would understand that just drafting some starters isn’t poo unless they are above average NFL starters. Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase started their rookie years like Legette did so we got an elite WR in the 2024 draft. Luke was a rookie starter just like Wallace. Damn we basically got a Kuechly and Jefferson last year. Bravo Dan Morgan!!!

      I didn’t even say they would be starters. I don’t think Legette will be and Coker was not drafted. Coker chose to sign with us because our WR room gave him a chance to start even though we drafted a guy in the 1st. That should tell you something when Coker chose to come to Carolina even after we took Legette. We drafted and signed guys to potentially replace Sanders, who isn’t a starter yet over Tremble) and Wallace. Go look at our other drafts since Rhule. We had tons of rookie contribution from all of our recent classes. Why, because our overall talent sucked and we needed bodies. Go look at PFR. Here’s some of our players who “started” for a year: TMJ, Mingo, BC, Ian Thomas, Jermaine Carter, Dennis Daley, YGM and Roy. That’s what Legette and Wallace are right now although unless TMac bombs, Legette has kind of already lost his spot. We’ve had shitty drafts since 2018 and every single one has contributed at least two guys who’ve started so 2024 is tied for last right now and we just had a draft where we took 3 more players who play the same position as 3 of our top 4 picks in 2024 but somehow I’m saying that the 2024 draft class is good? Nope, the 2024 draft class was bad and our team is still in the low enough talent quadrant that lots of rookie contribute in our holes until we replace them. Been the same story since 2018 and accelerated as the old solid vets retired/move on.
