The fact that there are Panthers fans that can find a perceived "win" in touting DG's positives while overlooking the negatives when we're heading into the playoffs with Devin Funchess and a crew of glorified waterboys at WR while the Saints are throttling teams with Ted Ginn who DG let walk for a few million a year tells you all you need to know about the Panthers fanbase.

Ginn's got about 700 yds. and 4 tds.  He's not throttling anyone.  NO is winning with a balanced attack with a 1000 yd. receiver, a 1000 yd rusher, and a do it all rookie.  None of these 3 guys are named Ted Ginn.

no, they have a stable owner who isn't being investigated for sexual assault and racial discrimination.

But didn't he have a punter who was beating his wife for a long time and only got one game?

so we sacrifice an entire year just to accommodate our hard headed GM and his ego? 

Why not? Our dumbass owner sacrificed a whole season to accommodate the 31 other owners while the PSL owners were required to continue to pay full price.

in all seriousness if you honestly think josh Norman alone is worth 4-5 extra wins last year, then it's not worth continuing this conversation.

Sure. Ginn is the reason Saints har killing it on O. Yep. 

Gettleman made som huge mistakes. Kalil and the handling of Norman ( not letting him go, but the handling ) but to say Ginn is some mighty force is stupid. Had Byrd not been unluckey with his arm he would have done the same as Ginn if not more. 

I thought it was the run game.....

made the same mistake twice with the same guy...

I feel really bad for their next QB. He's going to take a beating behind his OL for the duration of his rookie contract, and much longer if he's any good since all the money will be spent on him and defensive linemen.

If this is, in your words, a "DG built team" then you also have to credit him with the 11 wins they've put up.

Can't have it both ways.

There's no way we even sniff 11 wins without Cam Newton leading the team in rushing.

All these year of you posturing about your football knowledge, the fact I have to explain this to you is comical.

no, but I'm sure as hell not mad DG is with the Giants now. 

I don't give a s--t whether Gettleman succeeds with the Giants or not. The only team whose success matters to me is the Panthers.

That said, I think Richardson was a dumbass to fire Gettleman, and while I hate the scandal that's happening, I expect the team will be better off with someone other than Jerry Richardson making the important decisions.

Yea the hope is we actually get a GM that is at least DG level and perhaps could get a better one.

I totally agree with you on the Ravens GM in waiting...i'd make him the highest paid GM in NFL history if that's what it took to get him over here.

Maybe so, but Newton can't do it by himself. We've had losing seasons with Newton at QB too.

given the fact we lost like 8 games by 1 score or less, and the fact our secondary was absolute trash last year, yes, Norman could have easily made the difference in a few games last year, not just on the field, but playing opposite of Bradberry while also mentoring him and Worley in the process. 

instead our GM decided to throw 3 rookie corners to the wolves and watched them get eaten alive every Sunday. great strategy to get back to the dance following a 15-1 superbowl year.

Passing on Drafting a future TE to take over for 30+ year olsen to take a backup DT for 2 young guys just drafted 3 years ago......its still cringe worthy.

Is be good with Marc Ross too.

I can't imagine he's too happy to still be the GM in waiting after all the time he's spent there already.

The fact that there’s almost a 20 page thread with fiery discussion about another team hiring a GM is awesome. The huddle is great.
