I was just happy they got into a SB in 2003. I went to SB 50 and it broke me. I never looked at football the same after that game. Great time outside of that with 2 family members who are no longer around but that game was brutal. Ron not changing anything or adapting to the situation. Refs making crappy calls. Poor quality playing field. Bunch of rich turds who only watch 1 game a year around uustalking about the things they own and do. Then we lost to a decrepit Manning. Just brutal. Thankfully we got the tickets at face value.

Go a head and run him lol. Please. I heard he is also good at trucking since he has a low center of gravity so no sliding.

I don't think either are very good HCs. One is a very good OC. McD has potential but his ego showed up hard with a tad of success, Flores D and his O was good for 2 years. I don't see any real potential from Canales. Even with a great QB he would still be the weak link from a lack of talent. McD does have tallent but he didn't put the work in and it showed. Ego, other personality failures, complacency? IDK but there is talent there. Not sure he will every really tap into it either.

His wealth isn't his issue and he has blown chunks of it just not effectively. He is a terrible manager which includes hiring and control. Good managers let their people do their thing until they need to step in, that's not Tepper. He is also partial to snake oil salesmen and loves him some yes men. He still hasn't shown the ability to work with someone with a giant and earned ego that wouldn't kiss the ring. Those guys have 'poor interviews'.

BC's always hurt but they did lean on him and Corbett this year. Sorry but Cousins is what Dalton was 2 years ago. Dalton couldn't even play 1 quarter this year without being hurt and he deffinatly couldn't play 8 games the last 2 years. He is vastly declined but Dalton isn't even playable anymore even if he could stay healthy. That's who Cousins will be soon but not this year. I still think Cousins could have pulled off 1 more win than Penix and tsken the division.

I'm not going to say never. Reid couldn't overcome DC Johnson retiring but he fixed a lot of his issues when he went to KC and had great success there after Philly. People can grow but they also have to be hungry enough to address their own issues. We will see how big his head and ego are. He could be a stud OC and just pull a Kiffin the rest of his career. Other than pay, I would choose that path too. Owners suck all the best parts of the game away and could only imagine having to report to them dirrectly. Ross is a known assbag too.

He shouldn't. He obviously needs a reset but NFL teams do NFL things.

I thought he did good up to the point when they gave Tua that deal in 2024. That was around when they let the D fall apart while only focusing on the O. His head did get too big IMO from his successes. As an OC? Hell yeah.

They also won a SB 2 years before and lost in the Division game the year before. Plus Baker isn't Brady which is getting an unfair bump regardless.

If he was clutch he wouldn't have finished 1-3 when it mattered most.

Commited to not winning is a hell of a flex.

Again, wasn't propong him up. Just saying taking the NFCS could have earned Morris a chance to take another shot at QB next season. Yes the math is guessing but he only needed 4 more wins to take the division. IDK, someone always takes a shot on overpaying Cousins. It shouldn't happen but it keeps happening. I agree but the play at that spot has gotten worse.

Im not expecting him to suddenly find a brain like the scarecrow but it's worth a look before dumping him. Who knows, miracles happen once in a while.

I agree but 5-3 in eight games is still enough to take the division if they played him all year. Again it's not because Cousins is great but that the NFCS was terrible. I presumed all of that and the issues at RG on top. Along with it being later in the year when teams generally get more dailed in.

Great. Now they can get a read on XL going into the offseason. Anything less than showing a hard reality check in him should result in moving him in the offseason. If that doesn't light a fire under him then get him gone for whatever they can get. Should have happened way earlier.

Well that's about 10 wins on 17 games so that just carries my water for me. That's how bad the NFCS was this year. I am not trying to say he was good but just good enough. You're right. So it just Corbett desolving as the year went on?

Dowdle was fresh and it was early in the year. It gets more difficult later in the year when teams improve, gel and get in their grooves. Hunt being out also plays into it but then when was the last time the Panthers adjusted well with personnel? Morris did some good but the QB situation was enough to sink both him and the GM. I'm more on the 'if they played Cousins they could have won the division this year' side. It would have been ugly but it was really low hanging fruit. Penix getting g I injured again and losing the division by a game was enough to know he isn't the guy IMO. 2 years is the standard and he still falls on the wrong side. Im surprised Lovie is back. I have zero faith he can build up any team. Did a decent job maintaining someone else's build but how he handled this year vs the last 2 was enough to give him a pink slip IMO.

Depends. Did they finish strong or limp past the regular season? In this case they would all be taking the same flack IMO. 2014 was made fun of but most fans just laughed because they finished strong and we had Cam and Luke.

Yup. I'm more concerned with this crews ability to faceplate after doing anything good. Getting into the playoffs guarantees they will faceplant next season after not making the changes they need to make to improve.

That and finishing weak. 1-3 to wrap up the year is not something to celebrate IMO.

At least he is carryable is the point. The Panthers can't even carry Bryce to a winning record.

Dave finished the year weak and as for the 8 wins we'll if anyone in the division wasn't terrible then it would have been 2 6 win teams and a 12 win team. All of the 8-9 teams would have been 6 win teams if they weren't playing each other. Dave hasn't earned jack other than a participation trophy that Atlanta gave him.

Lol he was in a top 10 offense carried by a top 2 defense. Youbg has never been out of the bottom 3rd regardless of the talent around him. Hurts would be a huge improvement. The Panthers would be 12+ wins with him under center.
