Hurney Legacy Good or Bad


stirs

Recommended Posts

All the while, we thought he was great with the cap, but he wasn't. In essence, he opened one credit account to pay another with the way he played restructures. DG is trying to buy the team financial independence so he can have true control over the roster(I.e.,cutting an ineffective JStew and his bloated contract). I'm sure Smith was hard for him and as an observant fan.....I promise there will be more of these type cuts! He has to pay players what they are worth, not what it takes to keep them in CLT

his legacy is very average. yes he shelled out some dumb deals, but he also netted us some GREAT franchise pieces: including a player that no one wanted who was Defensive Player of the league in only in second year. 

 

When he was good he was great, when he was bad- well were still feeling those effects. 

 

Only thing he gets crap for that I refuse to blame him for is Beason. That was completely out of his control, and in fact he made the right call by essentially admitting his mistake and drafting Kuechly.

Gross, Gamble, Davis, Beason, Williams, Cam, Kuechly, Hardy, and CJ among others make it hard to say he was a bad GM. But he fugged us with his stupid extensions.

 

As I said....he was money in the first round.  Really weak in the 2nd-3rd round. 

 

And he SUCKED at contracts and the cap.

    • Needs to be a run heavy game. They have allowed 121+ on the ground in the last 3 games including 180 to Tampa yesterday. If they do the whole crowd the box deal like they did against us, push the ball downfield. If we can do it to the Rams and Falcons we can do it to them.
    • Rushing attempts PG are actually the 5th lowest since 1990.
    • team are playing lots of 2 high shell trying to take away the big plays.  But I mean, defenses being scared of QB play.....aids the run game.  I mean, don't pay the QB and have the threat....the safeties aren't going to be fixated on taking away the deep pass and can play the run and cheat on pass attempts.  I think what you are seeing is the most elite QBs are flat out being game planned for to take away the big play.  But if you aren't an elite QB and vertical threat QB.....defenses flat out aren't going to make that league wide shift on your offense.  Take a Bryce.  I would imagine most of his INTs are made by opposing safties over the course of his career (who aren't taking away the vertical but cheating to make plays on the intermediate balls)
