Corbett cant play either really well. Don't break what ain't broke.

That was Fittershits. Granted Morgan was assistant. Since then Tepper has supposedly stepped back, but as I said, makes his opinion well known. You can't tell how much influence he's exerting.

It's part of what makes his job as GM so hard to judge. You cant tell what Tepper has forced. He made it perfectly clear he walks through the building making his opinion well known and when the big boss does that he intends for people to listen even when he's being "hands off."

Oh I'm not kicking the man at all and any win over the cowboys is a good one. I just want long term success for us as fans. We deserve it. One of my favorite moments as a Panthers fan was watching Dieon talking smack all week leading up the playoff week and getting knocked the fug out. Hating the Cowboys is just one of those things you enjoy doing.

I'll still never understand that pick. Going into the season planning on Corbett starting at center made no sense. Switching positions, coming off injury, not that good anyway. Just take a center and be done. Pressure up the middle is a QB killer.

Just speaking for myself, it's year 3 and at the end of the season it's going to be pivotal in regard to Bryce's future in Carolina. I wish it was as easy as sitting back and enjoying the season, but the next 5 years or so is going to depend on his performance this year. Just the nature of the beast.

Exactly. Thats why we need Bryce to show he's either the franchise or bust.

Also worth noting right now that Morgan has a QB on a rookie contract. Its going to get a lot harder at the end of the season when we have to either re-sign Bryce in the 40-50AAV range or look to FA/draft for a new QB. Im still not a fan of how he's built this offensive line. Draft guards and centers, pay tackles. It's a rule for a reason. RBs can be found in FA. Put them behind a good offensive line and watch them eat. We played a Dallas team without their elite WR and they took us to the brink. This team is showing life and playing better and thats a good thing. Dan has also been here with Fittershits too and contributed in how much to putting us in the predicament we're in. This year's draft is showing lots of promise. Credit where it's due. But I'm nowhere near crowning him a top GM yet.

He watched Varsity Blues last night and was trying the hook and ladder trying to get a date to prom with Miss Davis.

Sweet victory snatched from the jaws of the refs!

Those things are on nearly every team's wish list. There aren't 64 receivers with that kind of speed and route run ing available in the draft and we cant get them here in FA because we spent 100m to have the most expensive line in the NFL to put in front of Bryce. I dont like how theyve built this offense either but a QB has to be able to elevate the pieces hes got somewhat to be a franchise QB, especially with what we paid for Bryce. And if we did manage to somehow get all of that, Bryce would need to set every offensive NFL record because our defense would be so devoid of talent they'd never be able to stop a drive.

Ceedee Lamb officially out this week as well.

Maybe just make it a standing rule to ro-sham-bo Newton every time he says something stupid. At least we'd get something entertaining out of his interviews for once.

Cam had his moments for me like celebrating a 1st down when we were down big, but overall, dude was a big kid playing the game he loved. He made the game fun for fans and engaging. He was great for fans, and probably for bringing in new young fans, but not enough old fans with $$$ and instead of embracing change they stuck with Sid and his old balls.

Cam was one of those personalities you either loved or hated. And Roger Goodell hated Cam and wasnt going to ever let that smile be the face of the NFL.

If Steichen is getting this out of DJ and can't get anything out of AR you know it's gotta be really bad.

It really is 3 full games as a starter. He got 3 yards rushing in the KC game. That's it.

Literally the best I have left from a draft that started Nabors, Chase Brown, Hill, Kittle, Lamar then Pickens.

Im playing Pickens and Fergeson this week in fantasy. Panthers 97 Cowturds 2

Oh I know. It just sounded funnier in my head.

He can make every throw, just not always to his teammates.

I didnt see it as whining about Bryce as much as asking is this year an anomaly in the 5 years Dan has been a part of the drafting process is it an outlier. There seems to be a lot of questions about whether or not repeating this type of draft is possible, and was it Dan, or bringing in a PFF guy that was ultimately responsible for the draft results.

The one that still blows my mind was if Burns hadn't been available Hurney was going to take Greg Little. He had a 1st round grade on him after that horrendous combine. We got so damn lucky Snyder drafted Haskins
