What Newton Really Needs


Recommended Posts

after watching the throttling the Oline got and the cripple secondary anyone else curious as to why Gettlemen hasnt really made a roster move? Is he turning a blind eye? Telling Rivera to win with what hes got?

Yes...

Our secondary last year allowed a league best completion %

Our OL last year was playing with fire in terms if keeping Cam healthy and being able to run basic plays consistantly.

Gettlemen ignored them. Ignored every weakness. Drafted to build his NY inspired DL and gave Ron a couple bandaids at WR....he technically has to have guys with somewhat comparable salaries anyway.

Hurney and his mess isn't universal defense for everything

Wasn't Eifert our second choice if Star wasn't there? So Gettleman pretty much acknowledged that a 2nd TE was needed and never went after one in FA, unless he thought Brandon Williams was going to solve that problem. Which is laughable.

We know HC and GM had different opinions on early picks. I think GM won....

I think Ron wanted the TE and believed a 2nd round DT was sufficient

    • No, I'm starved for contention. If you can't see that and keep wanting to turn things like this back around on T-Mac, then you're just either being purposefully obtuse, or is a fan who is happy having 5-6 win seasons just because we're so used to the 3-4 win seasons and you like "just being better"
    • Chiefs had zero penalties last night
    • You mean the guy who took over a franchise that hadn't had a losing season in the previous 4 seasons... who proceeded to get his team into the playoffs in 3 of his first 4 seasons, only to win 2 games in said playoffs, to then go on to having a 54-74 career record and never won another playoff game after those first two? Who then after being fired from that job, took over a team that was 30-18 in the 3 seasons before he got the job, got into the playoffs that first season, lost their first postseasons game, and then went on to have a 6-26 record over the next 2 seasons? You're literally proving my point by bringing up someone who's claim to fame is that quote. If you just play to win the game, you're never going to be a successful franchise.  You need to play to win the game while ALSO working to make your players better.  Having the former without the latter is a picture perfect recipe to become a stagnant franchise. That's how you work towards being a winning franchise who can contend in the postseason.  And sure, having a stagnant franchise that makes the playoffs every other season is better than what we currently are, but that's not what I strive for with our Panthers, I want to actually contend for championships in my lifetime.
