Panthers question.

Recommended Posts

A couple of years ago I remember the Panthers beating a team that was having a really bad year. If I remember correctly they fired their coach after the game. For the life of me I can't remember who that team was. I believe it was in the John Fox era. Pie to the one who knows the answer.

Thanks in advance. Go Panthers!

For some reason I had a feeling it was Tampa. I think this is right! Would be awesome if we did it to them again!

After further review, it wasn't Morris. He was fired at the end of the season. I swear there was a coach fired after a Carolina ass beating, just can't remember who. Mr Scot, please help!

Jon Gruden on MNF.

Wasn't him, he got fired on January 16 2009. But the last time we played Gruden was that epic ( yes epic is deserved here) Monday night game at home, where we kicked the poo out of the bucks and I almost got arrested for being to loud in my apartment.

Mora is the first name that springs to mind, but I have a vague memory there may have been another.

 

Let me do some digging.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
