but he’s only the interim, right?

Ha, I laughed at that the moment it was attached to him.

Tepper basically said that it's going to get worse before it gets better.

Why go and hire a Ferrari of an Offensive Coordinator if you don't plan on winning now

We've got board members who have broken more recent Panthers news than Rapaport. Who gives a fug what he guesses?

Hearing Luke was retiring hit a lot.... I think most logical people have accepted Cam is gone too.

Yes, sorry to say but the reason I liked the panthers were first of all Steve Smith, then CAM, Luke, td, Norman, Olsen. All will be gone. I don't have the stomach to really watch an NFL game now bc of how the NFL treated Cam. I don't even think if CAM suits for another team I will be able to watch much. I kind of wish Cam would retire too. Just wasted talent and time and the good experience , joy has left the game.

why hire a good teacher for 8 year olds since 8 year olds aren’t that smart?

You aren't smart, none of you are ... Cam will be here in 2020

Well if that's the direction we're going in then realistically he shouldn't be the only one on the trade block.

Our primary focus will shift to acquiring a worthy franchise quarterback to lead this team, and as we have seen Kyle Allen/Will Grier are simply not up to the task. The potential moves required to make this happen could upset some. But remember, "it's a business".

For real. My strong attachments ended after TD left and now Luke. Next would be Cam, but at this point, might as well blow the whole thing up and start over. 

It makes me beyond uneasy to imagine Hurney with the task breaking down and then building an entire roster from the ground up.

Yes, but in his "Cam is getting traded" narrative, its always speculation.  He doesn't actually cite sources in this particular story.  Only "My guess", "My beliefe", "Panthers should".  But never "per sources", etc.

 

 

 

I think it's supposed to be implicit - I mean, he's more of an information broker than a real pundit, so I think he's assuming we know that if he has "a belief" it's because of poo he's hearing from insiders.

But yeah, it's slippery wording with built-in deniability.

Lol. We gave up 30 points to the Rams, 20 to Arizona, 27 to Houston and 20/26 to Tampa. We had one solid D game against Houston. Aside from Houston that’s 25 ppg which pro-rated would be around 20th. So 1 out of 6 games before SF we had a good defensive game. Cam’s biggest fans wanted to make sure Allen got no credit during the win streak so the D was talked about like it was amazing and it wasn’t.

We gave up 166 yards and 2 TDs rushing In week 1 against the Rams. Just because our first 6 games were filled with mediocre running teams doesn’t mean we were borderline top 10. We still gave up 100+ yards rushing in all games except London when Winston turned the ball over 6 times. We gave up 500+ yards to the juggernaut Jaguar offense.

We weren’t ever close to top 10. We basically carried over the miserable D play from the second half of 2018 into week 1 of this year.

As I mentioned above, we gave up the most points from week 2-17. The Dolphins who gave up 50+ points to Baltimore week 1, gave up less points than us the rest of the year. 

You are conveniently leaving out the other statistics that involve a defense, like sacks in which we lead the league in, pass defense was ranked top 10 at the time, and we were top 10 in turnovers. The defense had 3-4 games that we forced 3 or more turnovers in until the 49 ers game so just looking at points allowed doesn’t account for the actually performance on the field, the rush defense was atrocious no ones vouching for it but to act as if the entire defense was trash since week two is ridiculous

You dont bring in Joe Brady to run an air raid offense that requires quick accurate throws and keep a QB that is known for neither. Cam is a great QB in the right system but we dont run that system anymore. And sadly, he may never be truly healthy again.

Right here it is.

Haha why go after the hottest name if you’re planning on a “complete rebuild”. Makes no sense hahaha. 

Sure it does. I don’t understand your logic. Rebuilding is not the same as tanking 

[Jared Patterson]

Can we get a first for Cam or no?
