Panthers will not win the SB with Jerry Hurney and Ron running the show. All 3 are terrible and bad.

10 years at the earliest once they're all history

...reinvigorated by new ownership, and not just the same old Boss Hogg bullsh*t

...world-class receiver already on the books for half his worth

...overrated greedy Carolina-hating meatball sub sandwich b*tch ("Star" Lotulelei) switched out for a player of superior talent who's never had the right fit

...dodgy veterans with no future politely shuffled off the books

...for all I'm loathe to admit it, a solid caretaker/bridge QB with a unique selling proposition

...aggressive approach to free agency instead of bargain bin tomfoolery

...Draft God waiting in the wings, setting up the next Kuechly-level steals

There's not much left to derail us. 2018 is the year.

Drinking and posting...great job!

well i'm convinced

better make room in my closet for a couple of world champs t-shirts

[MasterAwesome]

Who is this “world-class” receiver on the books?

[cheynehowell]

No Secondary-

Weaker Offensive Line with overpaid injured Center that already struggled to give Cam more than 2 seconds to throw the ball

Cast off WRs

No Power Back with a clock control oriented Coach

Yup sounds like a Super Bowl to me

There are folks in this thread who'd do anything to stop a Super Bowl season - I've mentioned in some other threads that I worry about the lengths they'll go to, but we'll leave that aside here.

Anything that challenges their narrative - succinctly, the narrative is "Everything sucks and will always suck, we're cursed, Gettleman was our last hope, GOOOOO GIANTS!" - is idiocy, or wishful thinking, or trolling, or offseason twaddle, or homerism.

It's a type of person I recognize easily, because I built a career on avoiding them and making sure they never played for me. Quite simply, there are people in this world who are happier losing than winning. It's usually a combination of what psychologists call an "external locus of control" and a high tendency toward neuroticism. These are people who've told themselves a tale about the world - it's evil, they're out to get me, nothing can ever go right - and they subconsciously bend their lived realities toward that shape, that arc. They are genuinely more comfortable that way, because it confirms their worldview. To win, to succeed, would be an intolerable shock to the system.

You know who you are.

if hurney is so good, why didn't the panthers win a super bowl in the 11 years he was the general manager of this franchise
