The NFL Shield At Midfield

"the panthers didn't deserve to be in the playoffs!" who in the division deserved it more then? considering that this team did it with one hand tied behind its back i think that sort of evens things out.

nice

ink that contract greg

all this said though i swear if our opener is another 4:15 kickoff against the fuging bucs

reminds me of the acquisition of kemoeatu in 2006 for this team "can you imagine kemo and jenks side by side? who's going to be able to run on that?" then week 1 the falcons rushed for like 250 yards lol

set that mousetrap

him and lavonte david i know they're consensus elite players and they're undeniably among the best at their positions in the league, but it seems like they're just kind of there every time we play them. maybe one of them will have a nice pass breakup or a sack or something but that's it. i can't remember one of them just taking over a game by himself like we've seen luke, thomas davis, or hardy do.

i'm kind of surprised that we haven't heard reports of the panthers pursuing chris hairston. he's a sleeper with upside who could probably be had at a reasonable cost.

nicks, crabtree, and stevie johnson are out there. i don't think it's impossible that something might happen between those three.

i'm not happy about it but i'm not pissed off either because my expectations for this FA period were extremely low.

of all the things you could step on gett's nuts over i don't think i'd pick the draft the guy has whipped out his scouting acumen two drafts in a row and it's a twelve incher

people need to go on wikipedia and look up the drafted players for every year. you can view it by round. when you get past the third round it's mostly a bunch of guys nobody has ever heard of. hell look at the 2014 5th round. bene might have been the best player drafted in that entire round.

bene, tre boston, and aj klein were all selected after the third round. gaffney was basically stolen from us in a technically legal manuever by bill belichick. the guy never played a snap for us so he's basically a null value. gettleman was working with five picks in 2013. let's also not forget that we're talking about a sample size of two drafts.

part of what makes draft picks what they are is the value. you can potentially net somebody who plays at a high value on a cheap contract. brandon marshall has a reported $7.7 million cap figure on the jets' roster this year. you're not giving up a draft pick and getting a free stud skill position player in return.

so two players is all you've got? get on wikipedia and look up the picks other teams made in those rounds. it's mostly a bunch of crap nobody here has ever heard of. gettleman drafted bene benwikere in the fifth round of last years draft by the way.

the elephant in the room in all this, in spite of all the piss and vinegar over dave gettleman, is that ron rivera has proven that he pretty much can't be trusted to play the best 11. the only reason we made the fuging playoffs in the first place* is because injuries sidelined amini silatolu, nate chandler, and deangelo williams and moves were forced in the secondary. *e: outside of the division being garbage before i get my head ripped off

you guys are going to lose your minds when we draft a DE in the first round

hopefully gettledouche doesn't destroy the panthers further by drafting a bunch of day one automatic contributors again

the division sucked last year, it's true thankfully the panthers were buoyed by the contributions of mike remmers, trai turner, andrew norwell, kelvin benjamin, tre boston, bene benewikere, and kony ealy. all of whom were either signed or drafted by king dipshit dave gettledouche who ruined the panthers and can't run a football team

wasn't rodgers injured a shitload in 2013 with tolzien, flynn, and seneca wallace all getting playing time too e: just looked those three started a combined 7 games in 2013

wouldn't it be funny if he left without signing a contract and then signed somewhere else really, really cheap

well he's no duron carter

i've been here since 2006 honestly, and i'm not kidding here, there might have been less complaining before 2010

nobody important has said anything about it. this would be the biggest news of the entire FA if it was true. 99% sure this is bullshit

is this real
