With the money Hurney gave him what else is he going to do lol

As of now I agree. They really want to tap into what Young may have, which they could never do with the state of things. Could be nothing. But it’s really the only option with the investment made. If he shines, you splurge on defense. If not, enough time has passed where they’re actually in a position to try again. They’re not in a position to try again right now, people really need to accept this. You don’t just simply instantly bounce back from the likes of Rhule, Reich and most of all Fitterer. What reality does that happen?

I think they are actually wanting to be bad. Just in a different way. They want to give Young support to develop while the defense will suffer. They’re not expecting to win but to keep Young healthy and see what he has. And considering the investment I think it’s a reasonable move. Especially considering they’re digging out of a huge hole left but idiot moves.

That’s ridiculous gotta keep Brown

Some of you still haven’t accepted the Teppers are doing with the franchise what kids do with doll houses and legos. This is their toy. To distract them from boredom. A brief talking point at dinner. They’re beyond rich and have zero worries in the world. They are just tinkering around. They have no ties or personal reasons to care about Charlotte or success. This team is at most just a stream of revenue but it doesn’t even need to be that in the slightest. The Panthers don’t have a chance to win anything until a new owner takes over.

Exactly. He’s a role player like Reddick was. He doesn’t have that ‘dog’ Morgan likes. Even the 28 mil the Panthers offered him was extremely gracious. And that is exactly why a deal hasn’t been worked out yet. Even Fitt knew better. This is a huge test for Morgan.

Those same people said Young would come in and light up the league. I’ve literally had three highly regarded dermatologists completely whiff on identifying skin cancerous spots. I had well known contractor completely fug up my house. And the highest rated concrete guy pour a god awful patio I had to take out myself. Scott Fitter was a NFL GM. I could easily continue.

Our only hope is either a trade or a contract worth his price. 30 million for 8 sacks and zero run defense is going to cripple this team. Reddick got half for twice as much production lol

Because for almost two years he looked like a bust. He was very bad considering where he was drafted. And yes, he was elite this year. And people changed their minds. Seems logical. What’s the issue? Don’t know why people on this forum act like they’re a pro scout and have some sort of crystal ball, saying they were right by what criteria? Watching YouTube highlights? Albeit people here do need to be more patient.

I didn’t take it that way. So how does playing scared change anything I said though? Is playing scared tough? Playing scared with ‘that dog’ in him…wtf are you on about?…that’s what’s dumb about this comment. In fact, only thing your comment added was suggesting Burns played 100% to his abilities. And if that’s true 30 mil a year for last year is asinine.

This whole scenerio will be the tell sign if Morgan is for real imo Burns played not get hurt, put himself over the team for money. This will not command respect from the other players and sure as hell won’t send a good message. It will not foster competitiveness like Morgan wants. This is not ‘that dog’ mentality Morgan keeps referring to. It’s not passion. Not the toughness he wants. And certainly doesn’t ‘embody what it means to be a Panther’. Well Morgan…we full of poo? Or can we move on from this guy and try and get a pick or two.

Tepper is pathetic…why in the world would any player with options want to be here? I don’t understand at all. I guess money but there is literally nothing else.

Imagine Luke saying some poo like that. Would never happen. This team desperately needs toughness and leaders. Signing Burns goes directly against that sediment and will leave a bad impression to the other players. Thats not even going into whether his play is objectively worth what he wants.

Burns didn’t have a down year. He purposely played bad. So not only can he not take over a game, he isn’t going to elevate the team and lead teammates if he feel it doesn’t matter or is worth it for him as an individual player. A business decision he says, so what happens when he’s bad? When the team isn’t going to win? It’s a really poor mindset. It’s not really something you pay to be the face of the defense. No thanks. If they do end up paying him, it will be a regret mark my words.

True but at least Bosa has the ability to take over games in prime time. I don’t think Burns has ever done that…maybe once in garbage time? Maybe for a quarter? Idk

Honestly I think the consensus was being happy with either and just hoping the FO did their diligence (and had the competence) to pick the right one…or one of because both could’ve worked out. I wanted Stroud but wasn’t mad at the pick at the time. A lot of people thought Bryce would get injured as their main reason and well that’s been wrong. However, what have noticed is the media now taking a complete 180. Now all of a sudden his size matters lol Hitting on a franchise QB living up to number 1 overall is incredible difficult and so it is lazy to say he’ll bust and then want everyone to think you’re right and know what you’re talking about it’s dumb. Like I could said that the past 30 years no matter what and be like 90-95% right. Young has hella work ahead of him. For me personally I don’t think his size matters as much as his mental strengths just not translating.

I agree completely, but that’s a testament to Luke imo. Maybe I’m just sour but I feel going to 3-4 did him no favors and possibility contributed to the length of his career or at the least the quality of the tail end. But he’s Luke, he’ll ball out regardless.

I doubt he was fired just for the superbowl, the Lion game defensive plan was putrid. Wilks is just too predictable and considering the talent the 49ers have on defense should’ve done much better. I do think he’s a good coach and would even take him at DC. But he’s predictable, won’t adjust, awful blitz scheming/predictability and he won’t be winning against modern teams that adjust well.

until he went to 3-4 and had Luke headbutting offensive lineman

Wilks showed he will revert back to 90s defense despite going up against a Mahomes/Reid led team…you absolutely can not do that

the saddest part is we’ve seen what they can do with garbage coaches but believe it not they never even hit their peak

how about we just complete a downfield pass first

You’re not going to find a Mahomes. That talent has been seen only a handful of time in the history of the sport. We just need someone competent. Or someone with a ton of potential…you know like Stroud.

Reich was a garbage hire though. In hindsight and with that logic, we should have kept Rhule. Need to compare him to , Reid, Shanahan, Harbaugh etc. No one in their right mind wouldn’t take Wilks as a DC.

Depressing to see coaches, players, and FO personnel moving on from the panthers to be great
