I respect the Falcons, at least they don't settle for inconsistency and mediocrity unlike JR and this organization, inconsistency and mediocrity has always been accepted here, I guarantee Rivera stays no matter what happens

the falcons and panthers are basically the exact same team in terms of playoff success, division titles, super bowls, whatever metric you want to use.  the only difference is that the falcons have been around since the 60s and the panthers haven't.  i know the "hur hur JR always settles for mediocrity and he loves losing and is basically david duke and hitler's love child" angle is a popular one on this site but you need to choose a different franchise if you want to make that comparison.  like one that isn't an exact mirror image of the panthers.

 

if you want to get more specific they've barely been better under blank than the panthers have in the same interval.  like i'm talking a few one and done playoff appearances better.  the panthers have actually won more playoff games since 2002 (the year blank took over the team) than the falcons have.

 

i'm by no means going to bat for jerry richardson but jesus dude come on

You realize who you're trying to reason with, right?

I live in ATL and am forced to know a lot about the Falcons organization (sports radio). I will agree with respecting Arthur Blank, because he doesn't take any BS. If you don't perform, you get fired. People always bash JR for running the Panthers as a "business first". But the truth is, Jerry is too loyal to his employees (or too cheap) and keeps people that drag his organization down around for too long. i.e. Marty Hurny and Ron Riviera. And that my friends is why we end up being mediocre.

This.. The ONLY reason Hurney was let go was because he was working without a contract lol, JR cares nothing about winning, he knows he makes his money from the transplants that come and watch the opposing teams play, JR always intended the Panthers to be a team that makes money off the people that move to Charlotte from other cities and states, Charlotte is a basketball city not a football city, JR just cares only about the money. We aren't meant to become a "storied" franchise like the Giants, Steelers, Packers etc. The Panthers exist to make money off those Packers, Steelers and Giants fans that live in NC

This post is absolute idiocy.

Nolan is one of thebbest defensive coaches in the league.

Ya guys don't have talent where you need it on defense.

Nah you don't understand. We've got our MLB trying to cover wide receivers, dt playing de, nt playing dt.

There's no identity to the defense. I still couldn't tell you what our base d really is.

There are some bad players on the field. Kroy, goodman. But it's nolan putting them out there.

The whole thing is a cluster fug.

yep richardson brought an NFL team to charlotte solely to make money off fans of teams that we play at home once every few years.  it's a fail safe business plan!

 

i mean really charlottepanther-all the different ways you can mount a "richardson only cares about teh moneys" argument and that's the one you decide to run with.

      High look overview...

      By musicman · Posted

      Start with Bryce, this is like his rookie year. The 1st 2 games proved her was wired wrong and it looks like (we hope) he needed a time out to reset and be the player that was drafted. He's still about a year or more away from being a top 15 QB, if the Panther give him another playmaker or 2 (a top WR and a decent TE) and maintain that line. Canales deserves credit as playing that card correctly to motivate (or refocus) his QB for one last shot to decide his and the Panthers immediate future. As a Panther fans we should hope he keeps improving as we invested so much to get him. CJ Stroud will never have a season like he had, even if he stays a top 10 QB. He's got great character so I'm rooting for Bryce to continue on his positive journey. Canales is playing the week to week thing with bryce perfectly. Nothings guaranteed, earn it weekly which builds consistency and consistency is greatness.  Keep the O-line. They've got to extend Brady C, along with Mayes that have a real good 7. Great job Morgan starting with the big guys upfront.  I really hope they draft a DE or OLB in the 1st round. Getting Brown back with A Robinson and what DJ has shown that we can have a decent D-line. Need a CB in the early rounds/ or a time FA to go with Horn.  The future as to next year being good enough to challenge for the division is within reach. Just show progress (win or lose) every week. Kudos to Dan Morgan. Plays GM like a LB. Tackle the problem and move on, don't just hope it works out. Find guys with your playing mentality and work closely with your HC to share a vision. Teamwork starts at the top and flows down.

      Canes vs Panthers(Back to Back Games Thread)

      By Panthers Fan 69 · Posted

      Since we play the Panthers today and tmrw, we will have one gigantic double thread for both games. Today’s game is at 3pm and tmrw is 7pm.    After beating the Rangers and sending the those yankee bastards back to Cary, we get the Champs in the house.  Clean up the defense, no more lazy clears, and score baby score.  LFG CANES!
