The future

Recommended Posts

We all know how horrible this team has been for the past few years due to hurney/fox.. however I am still very excited about what gettleman will do when he gets rid of rivera and the useless talent on the team and truly makes it his team.. I know it's sad the future is the only thing I have to look forwards to but hey at least it's not hurney anymore.

Teams going backwards. Team has not improved. Secondary sucks, and that secondary is injured. Core group of guys just aren't worth building around. Cam looks really bad. Front 7 not doing much. Rivera is on borrowed time so we have a new system coming in. I have zero faith that JR can make a smart hire.

I think he gets a new HC that wants to play old school football......and neither will believe Newton fits that mold. Which he doesn't

Which is why I am not a Gettlemen fan. Cam is a special kid. He needs the right coach to potential tap into all he offers though

He's an athlete and a running quarterback. It is what it is. He was pretty damn impressive his first two seasons. Let Cam be Cam. He will never be a Peyton or a Brees. Let him run wild

I want to see a respectable O-line, a legit #2WR and competent CBs. 

 

In regards to coaching, a OC that will cater to Cam and the offense's strength is ideal.

 

I have faith in Gettleman to address this, though I'm a bit worried about his seemingly "old school" mentality.

I'm with you on this. That's why I didn't place blame on Shula last week. 

 

Cam doesn't fit Gettle philosophy, but he'll never get JR's blessing to deal Cam, so we'll see more of the same, even with a new coach, leaving Cam to eventually leave Charlotte on a sour note.

that would be so depressing

Well I never understood the DG hype....

No NFL team would even interview the guy....we hire him and suddenly he is crowned the answer to all of our problems.

He believes in playing football the old fashioned way. The sole reason I was against DG is I felt Cam needed a FO all in on him. DG wouldn't even help Cam with a decent OL during Rivera's do or die season

Valid points against gettle, but I think the man has a chip on his shoulder and wants to prove that he can be a good GM.. I hope.

The big thing is...we do have talent on this team....I mean come on Jake took us to a superbowl.....Jake is given much love from the carolina family...but he was not a good QB not even sure he was an average QB...granted we have a good RBs too..but williams is decent and tolbert is great for short yardage which for some reason we have not really used...we have  a decent front 7, a great TE, a good QB that could be great, smitty and a few other avg position players....and a great kicker....reminds of Kasey a little....We should be able to compete with this team and win....something needs to change now and fast....or this season will be lost....

    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was. 
    • I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
