So we don't have a game for ten days - let's talk about some non-pressing issues. Apologies if it's been mentioned before. Where has Frank been? Obviously a bad sign that he's been inactive for a couple of games and he's had zero impact during the games he's dressed for. Past two years he's been great as a 'change of pace' pass rusher. If he keeps this up, Hardy's gonna take us to the cleaners. Wonder if this is destined to be another Hurney folly...

Saw him last night applying some pressure but not really getting off his blocks.

"DON'T RESIGN HARDY, FRANK IS THE SAME!"

Hardy's awesome - but he definitely benefits from having CJ over there. CJ is a pretty amazing all-around DE, if you look at the advanced stats from PFF, etc. I'm not sure how'd Hardy would be as a one-man show. Ray Edwards-esque, maybe? He's gonna demand a ton, and I don't think he's going to live up to it. Gettleman undoubtedly knows this but he may have to pay him anyway.

Hardy will not get the jackpot he wants here.  He can read the writing on the wall and sign with a team that will be a perennial playoff team for the next 12 years or test the open market.

 

I want him to stay, but there are too many upcoming contracts to give him Hurney money.  We can make him a main cog but we cannot afford to make him a made man.

 

Oh, and Frank is about what Hardy was at the same juncture in their respective careers, without the trouble.  I love Kraken but Hurney screwed us good for the next 3 years. 

 

Dumpster diving coming up.

Can't really and truly tell by the bucs game, there oline was getting away with alot of holds

 

It was insane the amount holds the Bucs were getting away with.  It was the worst I've seen in a game that I can remember.  It all became clear to me when I saw who the officiating crew was though...Boger's.  Worst officiating crew in the NFL.  I was literally yelling at my computer screen over the holds that were getting ignored.

Can't see how Gettleman, who has spent most of his time with the Panthers trying to renegotiate Hurney's bloated contracts, would increase the team's previous offer to Hardy.

 

Either Hardy comes to terms with the Panther's offer or he moves on to another team.

 

There has STILL been nothing even remotely official or reliable that has indicated an offer was made or that Hardy rejected anything.

The Falcons were making moves to snag CJ at the end of his first contract, and we blew them away with a huge contract. Here's hoping ATL doesn't come sniffing around again for Hardy. Finding a guy like Hardy, with his size and speed, you usually have to spend a high pick. I'd rather offer him a favorable (but not CJ crazy) deal. Alexandar should remain a rotational guy imo. Keep Kracken.

      What?!?!?! Chark's 1,000 yard season was 4 years before he played for us and he only had 525 yards in 15 games as our #1 WR.  Dude has 3,100 yards in 7 seasons, he's the literal definition of a JAG and you think he is better than half our current WR room? T-Mac is literally already better than Chark was at his peak, which again, was years before he ever even put on a Panthers uniform, and there is a real argument to be made that XL and Coker were both better as rookies than Chark was for us in his one season here.

      Im glad we're starting low. It's nonsensical to put us at 28 IMHO based on objective things IMHO (I think 21-24) is far more appropriate but whatever. Washington was at the bottom last year FWIW.  In 2003, Sports Illustrated said our best chance to win the division was to transfer to the ACC. In 2015, everyone wrote us off as a team that snuck into the playoffs with a losing record in 2014 and lost our best WR in TC (Kelvin Benjamin). All these videos are fodder for conversation, but this prediction has no more validity than saying the Panthers are making the SB bc we're starting the season against the Jaguars again. If Bryce plays like he did down the stretch we will end up the season just fine. This roster is much better than it has been the last 2 seasons. No one knows who any season will ultimately end up, but this team is finally being built in the right way, and the idea that this roster can't compete this year is as insane as being it was when we were gaslit in 2023 that we were a rookie QB from winning the division with that roster.
