Farewell to Jon Beason

We should also remember how Jon handled Luke coming in here and taking his spot.  He could not have handled that situation with more class. 

 

I look forward to the day Beason has his number retired here.

 

Not a chance that Beason's number gets retired.  He did not do enough to come close to warranting that honor.

Meh, I felt worse after Pep left.

 

Peppers didn't want to be here for the long haul. He made that clear.

 

For me, it's always tougher to see guys leave who really love their team and their city and want to play there forever. I wish Beason could retire a Panther, but this is the nature of the business. Simply put, Beason signed a big contract, got banged up and is losing his role on this team.

I talked to Beason after he was first moved to OLB a few years ago.  He was positive and upbeat.  Then he sang Luke's praises and accepted a lesser role. 

 

He was with Davis throughout his rehab.

 

Beason will be better in the middle, but I have to wonder how his body has held up through several years of the pounding a MLB gets. 

 

I hope he fires that Defense up in NY and takes it to the Saints, Falcons, and Bucs.  He will bring them knowledge and leadership.

I'm glad for him to get a shot, something that wasn't going to happen here.

 

 

Great player his first few years.

 

No trouble off the field.

 

Class act when transitioning Luke into his spot.

 

Took a paycut so something like this could happen.

 

Long term he helped the team.

 

This is exactly what I would have hoped to do in Beasons and DG's spot.

 

Good luck Jon.

    • He is a really good WR and they have a rookie QB so they can afford it. Look at what they have been wasting on Cousins for years? That's where this cap came from lol. Now the guaranteed money is high but Minny had to keep him while taking a shot on a rookie QB.     
    • Johnson is very smart IMO. He will get paid either way but avoiding a terrible spot can save your career too. He looks to be working the system and good for him. I always thought hiring interviews go both ways and have been disappointed watching people not realize this. He handled DC roughly but it was also funny because he did see them as what they are which is a new ownership group, even with Petters, he would be likely be destined for failure there while they figure out the normal learning curve of the NFL.  It's not lying it's just 'your great but I can't say what your not because that is taboo'. Sometimes lies are expected if the truth isn't what they want.  I agree generally. Ron was doing great work as a DC where he put in 6 years as DC at 2 teams vs Canales 1 year as OC before becoming a HC. Ron is such a known quantity by now, he earned his 2nd shot as a HC and it went as expected given his proclivities. Offense is just safer in this NFL vs Defense so any one that can score will get a look. Ryans is a beast but how do you think he fairs without Slowick? Which HCs were in the SB? Offensive guys. It's a thing and makes laughing about TB, Atlanta and NO all having beatable defensive coaches the Panthers still can't beat LOL. It's a dump. If your building a career the Panthers are a long shot. If you are taking a shot, getting paid and/or ready to grow from this failure then this is a great option. I think the jobs are extremely valuable on many levels but there is always a turd in the punchbowl with Tepper. Hurney, Rhule, Friterer, now Caldwell and maybe Morgan. Tepper always leaves some dookie around to contaminate the next batch...they literally help him fug up the next time. It's Tepper's MO, spend lots of money and lean on past failures into new failures. There has not been a truly fresh start under Tepper yet which explains why he keeps failing. 
    • yeah lol never say it can't get any worse with David Tepper in charge
