Luv it...luv it..luv it........

Named Fewell  interim HC Which will will meet Rooney Rule when he is interviewed for full time HC....Names Scott OC and gives him 4 games to show if he is the next son of a coach(like Mcvie) to leapfrog into a HC role. He’s playing chess, not checkers.

The same guy who hasnt listened to his scouts because he LOVED guys like Jimmy Clausen, Gaulden, etc.

Every GM misses...he has been good.  Hard to deny.  Now...his soft, player friendly demeanor is something I seriously question as a GM.

I’m not a Hurney guy but the dude may have drafted two league MVPs on this same roster. Say what you want, but that’s definitely something you take notice of 

And how many Super Bowls have we won because we have such a complete roster?

Armanti Edwards specifically says HELLO....SMDH...

This looks like it’s going to be painful. Marty needs to go. He could have drafted CMC and then Dalvin Cook, and instead picked up Curtis Samuel...

 

oh man oh man oh man.

 

that line about only accepting excellence? Maybe Ron knew the moment Cam hung me up for the season that this one was lost and he was going to use this year to evaluate the entire team.

 

id like to think that there was a legitimate conversation between Tepper and Ron about where things were honestly and the future. Marty likely had his own ideas and those conflicted with Ron’s, and for that reason he was fired.

(Complete Speculation)

 

im shocked by  a lot in this interview. He could have said that he’s a phenomenal coach and he fired him early so that he could land somewhere else, he could have said we just needed a change of pace or a new vision.

 

i think what Tepper didn’t say spoke more to how he viewed Ron than what he did say. I smell a personality conflict here. Tepper may be trying to take a more Jerry Jones”esque” approach and Ron likely told him to kick rocks, I know football and this team. 
 

who knows fellas, who knows. I’m sure more will come out.

You kids need to grow up a bit

How many teams have won a super bowl in the last fugging decade? We must be the only ones, huh? 

Oh wait. No. Well I guess by your logic then, there must only be 4 competent GMs in the entire fugging league, huh?

I really thought I'd be excited the day that Ron Rivera was no longer head coach of the Carolina Panthers.  But after watching that clip, hearing what he has to say about Hurney, just the whole thing I don't know what to think.  Marty is safe and Tepper I think is a meddler.  I'll continue to watch, but, I really don't get good vibes from any of this and am not too optimistic going forward

This is pretty much how I feel right now.

      As fans have we unanimously concluded that Bryce Young IS THE PROBLEM

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      If my reply comes off argumentative, that is not my intention so please don’t take it as such.  You said one word, probably subconsciously, in your post that immediately disqualifies him from being a QB in the NFL. You actually said it twice. Kid. It’s exactly how you see him, and exactly how the rest of the entire NFL sees him as well.  Yes, he is a kid, he looks and acts like a kid and that exactly IS the problem. The NFL is for grown ass men. Period. Hell, our kicker looks like he collects ‘taxes’ as a side hustle. These are straight dudes. Men.  Nothing in his persona changed from last year to this.  Nothing in his physical stature. Nothing. He has shown 0 development. 0. And he disrespects the entire organization, talking video games and Netflix in the offseason. Bro. Really. My man Chuba is busting his ass to look good for his second contract. Set himself up for life. How many RBs make it to even sign contract #3? First 2 games he has to run in to a brick wall continuously because Netflix can’t even get it over the LOS.  He’s a kid who pulled off the biggest heist in world history. He looks happier on the sideline goofing around than he ever has looked on the field. It’s time to cut bait.

      I hear you and I can imagine it's frustrating as a fan, but UNC-CH leaving the ACC would be throwing away over a century of history. It would really suck if y'all, or Clemson, or any of the other remaining charter members leave. I still think it sucks that Maryland left as well. Feels so wrong not having that rivalry anymore. Maryland fuging hated us and I loved it. Who's Maryland's rival now in the big 10? Rutgers? lol. Also, I think that the Heels are more likely to be Kentucky 2.0 than you are to get serious about football upon joining the SEC. Both UNC (and also Duke's) administrations seem very stuck in their ways with sticking to their ways and remaining basketball powerhouses. I do wish we could see NC teams actually competing in my favorite sport sometimes but alas. I personally value keeping our history intact over trying to become top flight CFB programs because nowadays it's just a pay to win sport anyways. Even if UNC-CH got serious I doubt they could compete with that Texas oil money, or that Oregon nike money, or that USC rich kid money. That's all top level college football really is anymore. You're either an established blue blood or you're willing to waste tons of money that could be spent on education rather than football.

      Maybe a move to the SEC forces UNC to be more serious about football?   I mean we should be making noise in the weak ACC and we can't even do that. How is Duke better than UNC in football right now? It's honestly sad and pathetic.   It doesn't matter if we get another great QB as you said a QB doesn't mean you have a great roster. A QB can only do so much. We lack elite guys in the trenches. That's how you build a program. It starts up front.
