No, it's time to go in a different direction. Also Cam has nothing to do with retaining or firing Ron and Hurney.

This.

Its time for Rivera to go. Let the new coach, staff and GM decode what direction they go at the QB position. Don’t handicap them with coaches and players they don’t want to implement like JR used to do.
 

Don’t hire anyone who isn’t capable of putting the right people in place. Trust them to do so. Refresh everything and do it right.

I honestly think Cam will be retired by the end of next season. I didn't want to type that. Just a hunch. If he regains his health he's the face of this franchise and people will come to BOA just to seen his massive body out there running and jumping and chucking bombs. I just don't his body will let him do it anymore, and he won't go out there and fake it. He'll retire.

I do think if CAM can not get any joy out of playing he will retire.

I could be wrong, maybe Hurney has ingratiated himself to Tepper, but I think Hurney's fate is tied to Rivera, but perhaps not the other way around.  Cam's is not tied to either of them.

My reasoning is you can fire Hurney or not without touching Rivera.  If you do let Hurney go, that means his replacement gets to evaluate Rivera, either immediately or over the course of the next year.  If the new guy is in place quickly, then Rivera's fate can be determined almost right away.  If not, he probably survives another year.

But if you fire Rivera, do you really want Hurney playing a major role in selecting his replacement?  I don't.

You can do any combination of those things and bring Cam back next year.

The worst scenario, to me, is to part with Cam and bring Laurel and Hardy back.

At the beginning of the year, I stated it was time for new leadership.

Unlike 90% of people changing their opinions week-to-week, Im currently in firm neutral. My biggest issue is not Ron, its Herinay and Cam. I did not care for herniay 1.1 and hated he came back.... I never agreed with drafting or most of his FA signing, just thought outside the 1st round he was a terrible GM. I think hes done great with the draft and better overall in free agency.

 Cam is an enigma. No clue about his health status and the future of it. I always thought he was one of the toughest QBs in the league, so its odd seeing him under-preform while hurt. All players play with pain, thats one of the skills about playing in the NFL. I also know if he can not run, that takes away form his skill-set too. If he can not run and can not play well hurt, well its maybe time to look at other options. Just didnt believe this would happen soooo fast, I still hold hope he can remain a healthy panther for the next few years. 

If the panthers make the playoffs, like I want badly, then Ron did one hell of job. I know this NFC south is no joke when it comes to offense. All the teams except the panthers are able to put up points at any time. I do believe Ron is a very good defensive coach, just dont know if hes a head coach. I know that Norv and Shula do/did like 99% of the offensive work too. Plus all that Mcvay "changing the league/ 389 NFL IQ" stuff is over. Unless you play in the AFC south, its dog gone hard to win constantly.

Rivera is the only one here in serious peril although I'm sure Tepper thinks he could find a GM better than Hurney. Hurney does find good 1st rounders but I don't doubt Teppers thinking and he knows a lot of football people he trusts more than this dufus troop.

Cam isn't tied to either.

Hurneys drafts have been subpar at best. Ya he may find a good first round but let’s look down the chart. His first round last year is just coming into stride and his first round this year? Well he broke his wrist punching the ground...

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
