  1. 1. If we hire Sean are you still a Panthers fan?

Wut? People would quit being fans over Sean Payton? Jfc. I can understand not liking the guy but I could understand quitting if it was Wilks more than Payton.  I could understand being sent over the edge by the prospect of more years of the same old same old, but not cuz the new Super Bowl winning coach has a douchey face and had a bounty program once upon a time.

Wilks is at least at his core is what the best of the Panthers has always been about.  Keep Pounding. 

Payton? A pill popping, bountygate (against our Panthers) villain that we rightfully disliked.    

I don’t want Wilks.  But Payton having a ring doesn’t mean we should want him.   It makes no sense.  Why give up a bunch of picks to our division rival for a douchebag coach??? That’s not building things the right way from the ground up.   I’ll strongly consider being done with the Panthers if Tepper fugs up a 2nd hire badly.  It’s just a football team.   And I have switched teams before.

Give me a break. As nice as that motto is, it has done nothing for the franchise. Because that's all it is, a motto.

I mean, I literally have said 100 times I want nothing to do with Wilks.  It’s just a repeat of what we have claimed we wanted to improve on. 
 

But I can’t endorse giving away draft picks to a division rival for douchebag Payton.  That’s the real point

Still a fan of the Panthers football team, but I won't go to a game, watch a game, buy a piece of memorabilia, a jersey, anything. I know the NFL is a violent game, injuries happen. But paying your guys to intentionally end someone's career and end their livelihood? Sorry. Not going to have any support for that type of bullshit. Might as well be one of the fans cheering when Cam was getting smashed in the head. 

Yea but the thing is, every team in the league was doing “bounties on opposing players” for years and years. Then, when the headlines about CTE related (football) injuries became a big deal, and the league was worried about lawsuits, they finally started coming down hard on teams/players for bounties. When the Saints were penalized, there were other teams still doing (permitting) the same thing. More than a few players came out and said so. But in the end, Roger Goodall chose to make Sean Payton his big scapegoat. Just saying, not that it was alright, but if you want to be fair about it, if the league had chosen to they could have penalized a lot more teams and players. The evidence was everywhere.

Oh man, I hope Sean Payton gets a job quick not with the Panthers.  I can see him getting a bag of money from Tepper, all while screwing the Panthers for multiple draft picks for his beloved Saints, and then messing stuff up as fast as he could, then taking the money and running.

Getting eggplant emojis from someone who joined after 2015. Tells me all I need to know.

ahhh yes, because as we all know, the date someone joined the huddle is the exact moment they became a panthers fan. I've been browsing this place for longer than my join date anyways, so your "point" still falls completely flat. You're not actually delusional enough to think that the vaunted 2015 bandwagoners are still following this team in 2022 right?

my answer isn't final anyway, I just put no because it's what I'm leaning towards and I don't really expect Payton to actually be hired. I'll have to seriously mull it over if the time comes; hopefully it won't.

It is batshit crazy or you’re a bandwagon for you to even be mulling the possibility of giving up on your team because they might hire a coach you don’t like.

Can't say I agree; I'd have a hard time supporting a coach who not only oversaw and allowed a program which sought to inflict serious injury on our players in the past, but covered it up and refused to shut it down even after being told by the owner directly to do so. Not to mention that he's a playoff choker and the brand of football his teams play is quite unwatchable as a cherry on top. Also, you are aware that this 2015 bandwagoner boogeyman you keep attempting to fall back on.. wouldn't have actually seen the games in which their players were cheapshotting our guys right? The bountygate news broke in 2012. A lot of newer fans wouldn't even be aware of it happening.

This is a subjective thing though, so I understand your stance, and I'm certainly not going to hold it against anyone for thinking differently.

      Trading Down Could be a Gold Mine in This Draft!!

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      I don't mean to make this a mock draft thread particularly,  but every time I do a mock I have been investigating the talent that goes off the board between picks 8 and our low 2nd rounder pick 57. There is a gargantuan amount of talent still left on the board in the top half of the 2nd round every time I do one. Losing our original 2nd round pick to the Bears as the last pick of the Bryce trade stings badly .  I'm particularly looking at elite players like Carson Schwesinger (LB), Luther Burden (WR), Matthew Golden (WR), Maxwell Hairston (CB) , Nick Scourton , Landon Jackson, Donavan Ezeraku (all DEs/OLBs) . The sweet spot in this draft really feels like pick 15 to 40 - ish. This is why the Bears should be making bank with this draft. I don't know how realistic a trade down is from 8, but if we could pick up any teams higher 2nd rounder and still grab their 1st? We'd be cooking with gas man.  Say for example we get Tet McMillan at pick 8, if you wait all the way to 57 you stand the chance of not getting any impact pass rushers in this draft. And I don't think this team can afford that.  I'd personally love for them to take a break from drafting wrs in R1 or R2 (i think we've taken one in the top 2 rounds in the majority of the past few years), and stick to repairing the nfls worse defense in history (in terms of total points against iirc, or was it yards? Also included my most recent mock as an example . Don't put too much into the  late round selections lol

      How is this supposed to work on college? How are you supposed to recruit with a one year interim coach?

      You must have researched him to know this--I said I would research him.  And there are trades, etc. during the draft--you really need to know the full board.
