Marty getting started early on the dead money dump. I really thought it’d be 2021 before it slammed us in the face. 

It actually might not be a bad idea, especially if y'all have an eye on a certain QB next draft. Could be starting over with an entirely new slate, including at GM.

Ive seen your posts btw generally good dude.... just not the offseason to be a panthers fan lol.

It's all good, haha. And I appreciate it, I know we're getting close to the same situation when we have to eat a huge load of dead money as well. Definitely not looking forward to it, but that's the way the cookie will crumble. Just going to have to hang on until the organization is out of the tunnel.

I may or may not have held the money for the "pay-for-performance" pool.

I'M SORRY! :crying:

No, y'all certainly didn't... but y'all fell two games short.

:tongue:

not only was that in 1996, but it also wasnt even confirmed with evidence. we didnt lie to the league about targetting players either, that's speculation and nobody knows if it was supported by the coaching staff or not, or if it even happened to begin with.

Y'all sitting here talking poo about Hurney, the person who picked Luke (who was not at all wanted by about 40% of you assholes btw), and you don't even know how retirement works. The Panthers and Luke will have a sitdown and work out how much money he gets. If we're like the Colts we'll give him the entire due, if not, then our cap improves a lot.

That's not how any of this works.

We now save just under 4M total by him retiring.

oh yeah how could we forget the multiple restructures. thanks hurndog.

Anyone blaming Hurney for extending g him and now him retiring is a blithering idiot.  Those extensions were done for a HOF player in the 6th year if his career...times when you would extend and restructure him.  There was no one (Hurney included) that would have even fathomed Luke retiring now.

Unless we needed the cap space, restructuring is rarely a good idea.

Doing it to Luke, while it maybe seems like not a bad idea due to his age and ability, still came back to bite us.

Doing it to KK and Trai....when it's not needed is certainly going to come back and bite us.

It's a bad practice, but doing it to certain contracts is worse than others, in this case all of Hurney's restructures are going to affect us.

pfff yeah no. He had so many concussions man, I knew this could happen at any time, Im just glad it didn't happen on the field with a skull crushing hit to the head. Luke was a bad hit away from retiring since 2017. Dude's had a bakers dozen of concussions. Now I would have thought he would have at least played this upcoming year.

Gale Sayers had a shorter career and never even played in a Super Bowl.

Super Bowl?  Heck, Gale Sayers and Dick Butkus played together (same draft class) and neither one of them ever even made it to a postseason game!  They only had 2 winning seasons, with one of them just barely making the cut at 7-6-1.

      Tom Pelissero: Ejiro Evero name to watch when coaching cycle commences

      By SteveSmithTD89 · Posted

      Respectfully, I completely disagree. Last year we were:  32nd in Sacks. 32nd in Turnovers.  32nd in Rushing TDs allowed  29th in Scoring.  We were absolutely atrocious on defense last year and that was with a full stable of weapons in Derek Brown, Frankie Luvu and Brian Burns that played all 17 games.  Using yards per game as a metric to guage our success lacks the context that because our offense was so inept teams were not driving the length of the field, they were starting at their 40-50 yard line.  This year, our Defense ranks:  31st in Sacks. Tied for 19th in Turnovers  31st in Rushing TDs allowed 32nd in Scoring  His defense fails to get pressure, fails to turn the ball over and fails to stop the run. Three things you absolutely have to do to be successful in the NFL.  Denver meanwhile has not missed a beat without him.  If another team wants to hire him as a HC and the Panthers get two 3rds for it I'll wish him the best and pack his bags myself.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      Ah, the ol Cam Newton hating.  I will give you credit, the week of pretending to be a Daniel Jones super fan is a very clever way to disguise your hatred of Cam.
