What will Gettleman tell JR?

Last year around this time, the Panthers were cancelling any plans they had for making the playoffs and JR asked Marty Hurney why we were losing.  It was reported that Hurney's answer was "I don't know", and that those three words pretty much cost him his job.

 

I imagine this week JR will ask Gettleman the same thing.  What's he going to hear?

Time to do it the Gettletrain way.

 

I think its one last overhaul..  but lets see what Gettleman can do with his own poo in place.

 

 

 

 

 

Hurney's stink is still very much present and its time to clean up his stink. not just cover it up with De-0. Oven cleaner.

He tells him, "This team will underperform as long as the current staff stays in place". 

 

I don't trust Jerry to do the right thing. All we can hope for is Gettleman does, in fact, know what he is doing and knows how to build a winner, and that Jerry will give him the authority to do it. I'm not yet sure that either one of these expectations will hold true.

As a fan of the game, he should..But he wont. He is getting paid good to do whatever his job is. Just like your current job, if you got a huge promotion and had more money than ever before, you would do whatever was asked/expected. If your boss still wanted to run the show and have his way, you wouldnt care since you were bank rolling. That is just the business of the game.

I'll say this about Gettlemen, the free agents he brought in on the cheap have done pretty well.   Ginn, Cole, Mitchell, and Blackburn have all been pivotal.  Granted some didn't pan out but that's expected.

 

He has a good eye for talent and there actually seems to be a long term plan in place.  Hopefully we will begin to see that unfold.

 

But to answer the question I'd imagine he'd pop in a cigar and say, "it's all part of the plan."

      I just want to see a big guy with an NFL certified cannon arm suit up for the panthers again. To me, it will show that they are at least  trying to take the QB position in the direction it needs to go.   Will he throw picks? Yes. Probably a hell of a lot, but (for now) I’m strangely ok with that… for now. I at least need to see a dude that CAN make the throws with some semblance of accuracy.  This is the time to see what the QB whisperer is made of. The offensive talent is there. It’s certainly better than most rookie/journeymen QBs will ever step in to. If he can get a random dude playing at a JAG level, then I might be sold.  Andy could really surprise in the Buffalo game. He (for now) still has enough arm for Tet and XL to show what they’ve got, but we all know it’s only going to be good for 3-4 games, max. He has vet savvy, and that does account for a lot. He also has a full week of practice with all the snaps to prepare.  My best case scenario going forward: Andy plays the next 2 games nobly (winning one would be a huge bonus) giving White a chance to learn some of the playbook and develop chemistry with the players. Serviceable Andy turns in to old man Andy in game 3 and White takes the field after halftime.  A high ankle sprain (lol, sure it is) is an injury that can buy the team a LONG time for BY to ride the pine…. Maybe even IR. His peak trade value is now. Get what they can for this albatross. He’s now shown that he can be a mid level backup which does hold a significant value for the right team.  Not even in my wildest dreams do I see White being anything more than a JAG, but that’s ok. JAGs with a big arm make great bridge QBs that at least won’t have your play makers stagnating. Keeping BY under center is a 100% recipe for stagnating high ceiling (Tet/XL) dudes and/or not allowing them to take the next step in their development. Why even practice the good half of the playbook if the QB can’t make the throw? After a while, you’ve now got high ceiling guys who can only run a limited route tree. No thanks.
