Jeremy Chinn era cometh

Fine with just going BPA at 9 but I don’t think it’s going to happen. I like next year’s QB class more and we’ll have less competition for them

Folks who like flats leave half the wing on the damn bone I don't trust y'all

Think we'll get more then Ron and Matt offered in their intros because of his experience

Chudzinski is a fraud and Cam's rookie numbers were despite him

You're absolutely right despite the morons pooing your post. National media only know the Panthers at surface level. If you don't follow in-depth enough to understand why Wilks had more to prove compared to other candidates racism is the only answer. Pundits follow this team mostly through bullet points and stats fed to them and this looks bad on paper. I also think sport media is using this situation to virtue signal on race relations without directly criticizing the league. They weren't nearly this self righteous about Kaepernick, or the NFL's cartoonishly racist "race-norming", and they weren't exactly supportive of the NBA players attempted boycott over race relations. But because Tepper is taking the heat on this and it doesn't put the honeypot at risk they're suddenly freedom fighters. Give me a fuging break.

And got torched when his defensive background was needed the most

I like that he's upfront about being overwhelmed his first season or two and is specific about how he would do it over again. Genuinely seems like he's learned from his mistakes.

Speak for yourself on Corral a decent contigent of us want a better look at him.

Need a Bojangles kit with the Bo Box trim

Yeah the whole guessing the play thing is his schtick and it gets old. Olsen comes off as much more natural, like just a knowledgable football mind watching along.

He’s been the sticking point in negotiations I’m pretty sure. I think that’s why Rozier to the Lakers didn’t go through. We’d have to bundle in LaMelo for someone to take Gordon off us now.

You notice that your colleague Mary is wearing a well fitting pair of denim pants. Which of the following statements are an appropriate response? (Mark all that apply.) A.) "Show me how you wiggle to get those jeans up." B.) "I bet you lay down on your bed to fit in those jeans." C.) "Did you step into those jeans or did you have to jump into them?" D.) None of the above

Payton is the most anti-Rhule hire Tepper could pull off right now so I have no doubt he's all in. That alone makes Carolina more appealing than any of the others.

I didn't even see this just sit him for the year

At what point should we be worried

Our esteemed head coach quit and our locker room leader caught a felony all within two weeks of the draft. If Miles got arrested a week earlier Jalen Duren would probably be on the team rn. I know it's convenient to blame all of the Hornets misfortunes on Jordan but the reality is this season was doomed before it started beyond anyone's control. They were right to move on from JB when he did and Clifford's the best (maybe the only) option they could get last minute when Atkinson flaked. It's not enough but Cliff is playing the young guys more than Borrego did and is working with less.

@frankw you're not wrong but glossing over San Franciso's success after the trade while pointing to ours is where you lose me. Our success since the trade is just proof that we're stuck in an ancient offensive scheme not that CMC is overrated. This team is conservative to it's core and tried to fit a non-traditional player into a traditional bellcow RB role. He's an undersized back on a team with a weak offensive line and they were treating him like Le'Veon Ball. He's underwhelming and not worth big money in that role. They correctly recognized his talent was worth it but wrongly bet on the coaching figuring how to make him work for us. The organization is trying to evolve now on the coaching end and the o-line is much better. With luck, the next regime will be the type that could actually take advantage of a player like CMC but it probably would have been too late had he stuck around. It was good for both sides that we parted ways when we did.

Glad we got something back for him in the end but the way this team squanders talent is taking a toll on my fandom ngl.

Richardson will fall to us unless he has an awesome combine. They’ll have to trade up if they want Young, Stroud, or Levis.

This thread stiiiiiiiiinks. The kid is 21 and the whole team plays better when he’s distributing. Prime Steph or KD on wouldn’t make this group into contenders but you’re ready to write off the most talented player in the team’s history? Because he can’t Lebron a bottom barrel squad into the Finals singlehandedly? Good grief.

What does "full control" entail really and how is that any different than just having a GM on HC on the same page? Rivera and Fox weren't considered those sort of guys that but did Hurney ever block them from doing anything? We don't exactly have a football brain trust to protect in Carolina. Either we bring in a coach and give them the power to rebuild the place or find someone who basically just acts on Fitterer's behalf and no accomplished coach is going to agree to that.

Good news either way.
