Was Hangartner really that bad?

one of the dumber things we've done i retrospect, because we replaced him with exactly what? 

 

and supposedly we released him early to give him a head start in finding another team, which he has failed to do.

 

bring him back. i'm not for taking steps backward, but at this point can we say that we would be by doing this?

 

crap, at this point i'd be for bringing back drayton florence and chris gamble in the secondary.

The huddle pooped on my gamble thread but he would easily be the best player in our secondary

I'm so frustrated with all the second guessing because so many people blindly agreed with what Gettlemen was doing at the time and so many of us who spoke out against it got blasted.

 

I was told by tons people on hear that we would bring in starters after cuts and that there was a plan in place.  Now we are two weeks into the season and Bell is going to get Cam injured and the secondary is the worst its been in years.

 

Gettlemen has a plan, I'm just hoping Cam and the fan base can survive it because it doesn't include the playoffs this year.

Geoff Hangartner went to the coaching staff and told them he was a step slow and his body simply was taking too long to get into playing condition after missing the 2012 season. But, he was part of an offensive line just a couple seasons ago that featured 3 of the 5 O-linemen who could play multiple positions (Wharton, Hangartner and Gross).

 

Just that flexibility and versatility factor should have been enough to keep the guy on the roster. But, in true Panther fashion, poor personnel decisions again reign the day and now they suffer the consequences of having no DB and no O-line depth.

      Panthers OLB Pat Jones II makes bold claim about team's defense

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      It's not impossible to go from worst to first.  We kept Evero because anyone in there right mind knew our defense was destroyed by injuries, not the scheme.  Evero has been given a plethora of talent between free agency and the draft, not to mention getting DB back. I fully expect our defense to be very good.  I have no reason to think Jones would say something like that unless he truly felt like that.

      We would’ve played Florida and lost in the 1st instead of the 3rd round.  Montreal would have been the 8 seed.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      I can't get behind a purely subjective re-draft as a method of defining "top-10 QB" status. That invites bias based on vibes/hypotheticals and can ignore actual on-field performance. You and others have said that Bryce has to be a top-10 QB to justify the pick. That's a high bar, which I'm not against, but we need a clear, consistent way to measure it. When I bring up metrics that Bryce has registered in the top-10 in like BTT%, P2S ratio, catchable deep ball rate, etc... they're waved off as either irrelevant or the expected baseline performance. Meanwhile, volume stats like passing yards or win-loss records, both of which depend heavily on roster talent, health, and coaching, are treated as definitive. That's where the inconsistency kicks in. If no performance metric ever counts in his favor and the answer is always going to be "he should be doing that," then we're not evaluating him... we're just holding him to a curve he can't win against. If this is really about performance standards, then let's define them. But if it's just about confirming prior takes based on height and weight, then let's call it what is it and stop pretending that this is a football analysis discussion.
