Bill Voth also asked Gettleman about Josh Norman

Gettleman won’t talk about contracts, but would he admit Norman’s talent could tempt him to make a somewhat sizable investment in the defensive backfield?

“I’m not going there.”

“He made a lot of progress,” Gettleman said. “Like any other young player, there’s still room to grow. You’ve got to see how he continues to ascend.”

And thus begins the "Gettleman is gonna leave us for a bigger market" panics.

Because his path took longer than most, Gettleman doesn’t spend time worried about a falling ax. Whether he continues to build a winner, or if it all goes wrong, this is the 64-year-old’s last job. Not surprisingly, though, he won’t reveal details of his agreement with owner Jerry Richardson.

I'm too new to the site to get all the Joe Person hate... I get that he's not one to provide breaking news, LOL.

But perhaps worse is David Newton who seemed today to copy Bill Voth's interview with Gettleman without providing any attribution to Voth.  Lazy is one thing, but presenting another reporters work as your own is something totally worse.

Here's Voth's piece:

Here's David Newton's

Lol there's still a bit more to it than that, but yeah, that was a good thread.

He's notorious for "breaking" news that someone had already broke hours, or sometimes even days before.

IIRC there was one offseason, can't remember which, where there was quite a bit of rumors swirling around the Panthers... and everyone was getting news from other random twitter users... and not a single tweet about the Panthers from Joe.  Turned out the son of a bitch was on vacation and was instead tweeting about hot it was at the beach he was at and how good the strawberry daiquiri was he just drank or some poo.  Then he finally gets back with the program and starts retweeting all the same poo that several other people knew long ahead of time and were already having in-depth discussions about.

He's also a huge mouth breather, and seems like he's out of breath in most of his interviews... not to mention asks some of the stupidest fuging questions out of anybody at press conferences.  The player can have literally just said "I don't have anything to say on that topic" two or three times in a row and Joe will still proceed to ask them the same question.  Never fails.

That sort of sums it up I guess.

when ravensinsider is breaking panthers news and joe person's twitter looks like the ss atlantus, I must question how easy it is to get a job at the observer. The qualifications must be a pencil and three known words in the English language.

Only if those three words are "I'm completely worthless."

      Current Draft Position & Potential Prospects

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Starting to see more prospect discussion and figured to drop in a few lines: DRAFT POSITION The short: We currently stand at #5 and I think this is about where we land.  We are 1 game separated from 1OA (currently JAX) all the way back to pick 11 (currently CHI). https://www.tankathon.com/nfl My Reasoning:   JAX is simply a wildcard - I think their remaining schedule is all winnable, but it's a faltering situation. NYG could very well lose out, tough schedule, terrible team.  They would still be ahead even if we lose out and they win 1 remaining.  They seem like the highly likely Cam Ward destination/Can't see Deion supporting his long time nemesis.     NE is playing AZ, BUF (twice) and LAC to close out the year.  If we both lose out, they're still ahead of us.  Hunter is an easy pick here.   LVR have some winnable games, also play JAX week 16.  You never know what Raiders team you're getting weekly, but Shedeur makes too much sense for them - question is - where do they land?   CLE has a BRUTAL stretch coming up and could easily lose out, moving ahead of us.     With this in mind, I think highest pick here for us is #3 unless Drake Maye or Drew Lock pull off some stunners.  Lowest pick is in that #10/11 range.  If we get just 1+ win (which seems likely), I think we end up at #5.  So, okay, there's my reasoning.     MINI-BIG BOARD And now the big board talent - more/less consensus from what I'm seeing (minus QBs who's value pushes them up): 1. Travis Hunter DB/WR Colorado 2. Will Johnson DB Michigan 3. Tetairoa McMillan WR Arizona 4. Ashton Jeanty RB Boise State (talent is this high, but doubt he goes top-5 in the current climate) After this...it's really hard to sort bc they all start to have warts, the EDGE talent is not good, but names you'll see: Shedeur Sanders QB Colorado Cam Ward QB Miami Mason Graham DT Michigan Malaki Starks DB UGA Abdul Carter OLB PSU   - Where we benefit: Ward & Shedeur will be going to QB needy spots and early. This brings Hunter, McMillan, & Johnson into contention.  With that being said, as mentioned, New England seems a likely landing spot for Travis Hunter.  So long story short: Johnson DB v. McMillan WR v. Graham DT is the debate I foresee having as things escalate.  The EDGE class is simply not worthy in the top-5 (I need a hard sell on those guys) and don't really see the value elsewhere unless we really like Starks.   Many are already talking McMillan and I think it makes a lot of sense. Seems like a situation where staying in that top-5 helps. So maybe yesterday was a blessing in disguise.   If we drop much further, there may be a prospect commonly ranked in the 20s right now that rises into consideration with how this draft class is muddled.  That top-4 is clear and it's just a big field of late 1st/early 2nd rounders IMO.  Put Bowers, heck Amarius Mims in this draft class, they're both going top-5.

      What Exactly Caused Bryces Turnaround?

      By jb2288 · Posted

      Nobody could have succeeded last year, it was an awful offensive roster with even worse coaching I've been screaming that for a year. Watch some of the film of last year playcalling vs this years, it's an insane difference.  but to directly answer your question, I think last year not only slowed Bryce's improvement but made him regress. My opinion is he was worse this year Game 1 at Saints than he would have been if he just took a year off in 2023 from football. The last staff absolutely ruined him. I wrote him off, said after the first play of the Saint's game when he threw the int he was done and no coming back. Sitting seemed to have let him get back to being the dude he was coming out of Alabama, and what we are seeing now I believe is what the 1st overall pick looks like 5 games into their rookie year.

      What Exactly Caused Bryces Turnaround?

      By Panthering · Posted

      It's impossible to tell without being in the building but the biggest thing for me is confidence in himself, which happened once he finally had confidence in the offensive line which for some reason didn't happen until after his benching. Him being benched was his first football failure of his football life, he's been successful at every level since high school on incredibly talented teams. Biggest difference I've seen with him is staying in the pocket and also keeping his eyes up. He's legitimately eating big hits on the chin like a pro and still delivering darts. He's suddenly unshakeable it's great to see. I thought he always flashed some good throws with some anticipation so that's been there, with his confidence back his accuracy also returned to form. He still has to work on balls to the boundary but those are notoriously difficult.  tl;dr: confidence.
