  1. I wouldn't necessarily say they're "all in" but I do think they're "in" (now I'm gonna sit back and watch to see who takes that line and makes it sound icky)
  2. That, or call the right kind of plays to attack what the Saints throw at us. He majorly failed to do that last time.
  3. Maybe 20 years from now when I'm an 80 year old billionaire I'll go looking for one of those
  4. Kellen Moore is a good quarterback coach. Don't know that he's a good head coach but the ability to coach QBs is a valuable commodity in this league. Arguably the biggest there is...
  5. Some are still trying... With an 800 horsepower engine attached... John Elway made a career out of that.
  6. And it's an easier position to play. An 18 game season combined with the current offseason training restrictions... What could possibly go wrong?
  7. Said before and it's still true...a lot of folks either don't understand or don't appreciate just how much of a unicorn Newton really was.
  8. Never was... Regardless of draft position or talent level, you still gotta have the right coaching. Good coaching can shape a lesser round or even an undrafted player into a solid starter. Poor coaching can tale a top overall pick and turn him into a massive bust. There's about a hundred other factors that go into making a great NFL quarterback of course, but if you don't start with good coaching you're already operating at a disadvantage.
  9. Young's performance in that game will matter, but I'm honestly more interested in what Canales does. He got hilariously outcoached in that game so I'm anxious to see how he responds in a rematch.
  10. So basically, just admitting you've got nothing, here?
  11. Dude broke our running percentage gag
  12. Wins and losses are a team effort. The team his rookie season just wasn't good, and there were a load of things going in behind the scenes that made things even worse. The past two seasons have shown better results. And again, the whole "in spite of Bryce" argument is just silly.
  13. You can to some degree by looking at titles and job descriptions. Morgan dumped Cole Spencer. He was Firterer's head of college scouting when he was first hired but had been promoted to a larger personnel role (I wasn't a fan). Tilis has Samir Suleiman's old role plus some other duties. I don't know that he has any personnel input but he might be helpful in picking the people we bring aboard who do. But even if he doesn't, Morgan has a lot of prior connections with solid reputations that may be available this coming offseason. That includes Lake Dawson, the guy who interviewed for our GM job before Richardson handed it back to Marty Hurney. Might even include Joe Schoen depending on what happens in New York. We've also still got Scot McCloughan's son Cade as an area scout. McCloughan had a damn near unmatched eye for talent years back, but he basically drank himself out of the league. If he could come aboard in some capacity (and stay sober) I'd love it. And there's others like OC Brad Idzik's brother who's a former GM, Trent Kirchner from Seattle who got his start with the Panthers, and many more. I'm hoping to see us bring some people aboard this offseason. As front offices go, we're relatively small so there's room to grow.
  14. I'd add you can't take YAC out of the equation. It's one of the core principles the WCO was built on.
  15. Sam and Baker were back when Rhule had final say. I'm going off one of Gantt or Person's articles on their differences (I forget which). Don't forget Tilis.
  16. Should and shouldn't are hypothetical.
  17. That's partially why our front office ended up the way it did. Fitterer signed on to Tepper's heavily analytics based approach. Morgan prefers old school eyeball scouting. As far as "genes" our last few quarterbacks have had both the OMG and WTF genes. That's nothing new in Pantherland.bThe only difference was how far and how fast those throws went.
