Bill Polian Interview MNF Eagles game

Recommended Posts

care to summarize?

It's worth a listen. More than just Cam in there. Basically says Cam wasn't as successful last year as fans thought. He was a product of coaches being creative in his use catching the league by surprise. He was 6-10 but thought he was successful. He has never failed before at any level. Once the league adjusted to the O scheme Cam didn't.

Specifically mentioned our defensive line and Luke Kuechly as strengths of the team. And Charles Godfrey as well (that is sure to endear him to our fanbase).

Critical of the offensive line, and our offensive line and of especially of Cam. Said that defenses have caught up with him, and he needs to adjust and hasn't so far.

Someone else made a stupid comment about Cam being a failure because of the number of wins last year. IMO, blaming wins or lackthereof on one guy, even the qb is stupid.

Polian always talks down on the Panthers every time I hear him talk. If he actually knew what he was talking about he would know we don't run the same offense as we did last year. The only thing other teams look for is the read option which we all know has failed but Chud thinks otherwise.

Did you listen to the interview? He actually said quite a few positive things about us.

He was respectful and full of class. He answered every question directly and didn't dodge anything, except the one question that was not his to answer, which was who should be the next GM. It's a shame we parted ways with this guy. He is a winner everywhere he goes.

How did the league adjust when Chud changed our offensive scheme this year?

I did listen and I have listened to a ton of what he has said in the past. Polian does not like the Panthers and especially does not like Cam. He was on espn not to long ago bashing the Panthers and Cam while slurping Bob Griffin.

I do not want that man anywhere near this franchise ever again.

I don't agree about what he said about the coaching staff doing everything right vs the Bears, Falcons and Bucs to win.

The read option is killing are offense and Polian didn't even mention this, he seems to place the blame more on players then on the horrid play calling.

Well we should of wom those games.....even flawed coaching put us in position for those wins

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
