Fill in the blank: Panthers are circling ____________. Correct Answer: The Drain.

You can count on it! (Pun intended)

I'm going out on a limb here... It's gonna be big.

I hope the new ownership now appreciates and embraces Keep Pounding and makes it a staple of every home game going forward. TL/DR: Looking at you David Tepper. Keep Pounding!!! RIP Sam Mills.

Chances are McAdoo, a former NFL OC/HC, wouldn't have joined the Panthers without being given the authority to choose his own staff.

Glad JJ is back. He might be only one of a handful of players who consistently provides solid performances game in and game out. Seems like someone wanted to do a thorough house cleaning without having an adequate appreciation for who they already had on the roster.

Don't want to get into the weeds on this, however, Sometimes waiting for people to have a change of heart and do the right thing takes generations. Most people don't have generations to wait. That's where legislation comes in handy.

Too bad the NFL doesn't allow the Green Bay Packer's model of ownership (publicly held nonprofit). Under those circumstances Byron Allen could maintain control while selling stock in the Denver Broncos franchise. I'd definitely buy a share or two just for the novelty.

When it comes to roster building this should be Matt Rhule's only role/roll.

You can count on it.

Just about every other GM in the NFL to their QBs: We have a standing offer from Carolina if you're unhappy with your current situation. QB: Crickets GM: Just as I suspected

Alvin Kamara's Autobiography: A Momentary Lapse of Reason or How I Destroyed My Reputation and Lost a Lot of Coin in a Matter of Seconds

Wow! Houston we have a problem.

For a young guy with plenty of spending cash, Las Vegas is like being a kid in a candy shop. Lots of sweets to choose from, but you've gotta steer clear of the jaw breakers and all night suckers.

If Rhule doesn't pull a rabbit out of his ass this coming season (and is still retained in 2023) Tepper won't be able to show his face in Charlotte for all the verbal abuse he has coming his way (and deservedly so).

What the hell has the NFL been thinking all these years? Picking winners and losers based on wins and losses? Nah, we need to determine who the best teams are based on Rhule's invisible intangibles that only people like Actionman can see. TL/DR: Fans can't see it, but Rhule knows 10X better than you or I. Stop bitchin' and trust the process.

Thanks mister Actionman0z! You've somehow cracked the secret code of professional football and explained it in a way all us dummies can understand. Don't know what we'd do without you!

Could have finally hit on something Rhule might be good at... winning a BBQ eating contest.

I have no doubt that any one of the Panthers previous Head Coaches could walk in on day one of next season and get more out of our roster than Rhule (even if he were given an entire off season to prepare). And yeah, every one of those previous coaches were ultimately fired for their lack of success. Which begs the question, why is Rhule still the Panthers Head Coach considering he is the worst coach in Panthers history (based on his record)?

Chances are Rhule didn't agree to coach the Panthers without an agreement/contract that stipulates he has final say. Tepper wouldn't be able to just snap his fingers and force Rhule to give up his power over personnel decisions.

That's why teams have to do their due diligence and not allow themselves to get caught up in "top coaching candidate" hype that is often next to meaningless.

Tepper is fiddling with himself while BOA stadium burns to the ground.

Did it turn out the way many of us hoped? No, but Cam's return was a momentary reminder to Panthers fans of a culture and leadership ability totally absent w/the current regime.

Rhule is the personification of gum stuck on a shoe...

Anybody remember when Marty Hurney returned as the "interim" GM? Rivera along with a couple of other employees conducted interviews with several well qualified candidates even though nobody seriously believed Hurney wasn't a shoe in for the job.
