Im on the Jim Popp bandwagon. Could be the perfect match.

So because he is in the CFL that automatically means that he's never scouted players in the US?

He played college ball at Michigan State and has also coached college in the US and also has coached his CFL team in the past to a Grey Cup. Don't think Ross has that kind of a background. I'd say Popp knows a whole lot more than you guys want to give him credit for

Competing in an 8 team league with lesser talent, different rules, a lesser pace and nowhere near the complexity of the NFL doesn't inspire confidence in me. Especially not when we have candidates who have 15 to 25 years of NFL experience.

If he were applying for a lesser job where he could work his way up, maybe. As it is, the Panthers are going to be in a highly complex situation over the next few seasons. Given those conditions, do you really want the team being run by someone who has to learn on the fly?

To me, Popp is a fallback candidate. Nothing more.

Damnit, that's what happens when I dont wikepedia something before I spew bullshit. Woe is me.

I heard them talking about him on the radio the other day and they were saying how he had a shot because he is a local guy who grew up and lived his whole life here and has a lot of connections in the area and oragnization. Also was saying how he was a season ticket holder, yadda yadda yadda. I remember thinking "Hell, they might as well hire SCP, he fits that criteria".

The guy's resume did sound rather intriguing if nothing else. Would be interesting to see what he could do at the NFL level. (Not saying I would want that experiment to be with my team of course).

      I was definitely on board with re-signing Darnold for another year while they drafted someone. Darnold really turned a corner once he came back in the second half of 2022. He is one of the better QBs in the NFL now for sure. Still makes those patented Darnold blunders though, evidenced by throwing a pick on a potential game winning drive yesterday. But he was also stellar at times during that game too.

      I dare you to go “pull the records” on my Cam posts. 🤣🤣🤣  Kyle Allen posts too.  I was one of the few screaming how garbage he was early.  Also, look up the posts and see what side I was on when it was rumored Olsen tried to console Cam his rookie year after a tough loss.  And whose side I was on when people criticized Cam for the towel, or “pouting” or for dancing.  I have never wavered.  Not only do I pull for Cam as an athlete, but I felt a kinship with him dating back to his Florida days.  I wrote about it here.  I know what it’s like to be judged off your persona, your reputation that someone else has given you, off falsehoods, off appearances, off of a mistake.  I know what it’s like to be ridiculed and omitted from opportunities for those things.  I’ve never me Cam, but that’s my brother.  So, anything insinuating anything else is hilarious.  I was riding for Cam when half the board wanted Marcel Dareus.🤣  I was riding for Cam and running off racists like “TheRealDeal” over Matt Moore (who, actually was a damn good QB, imo, but he was no Cam).  To this day, I still maintain, if we signed Cam off the street right now, he is the best QB on this roster instantly.  I don’t care what anyone says.   So if you have some sort of previous history with another poster or posters that made the racial component obvious, then please share, but when it’s coming from me?  Trust and believe - this ain’t that.  Never will be.  And no doubt, a ton of Cam hate was purely racial.  But, I call a spade a spade.  Mentioning Bryce in the same breath as Cam is objectively insulting.

      I haven’t. And always willing to show face. If you’re going to a game let me know. Love for you to explain why I’m an idiot to my face.
