Who do you blame

There is not a single vet player released that would make this team any better right now.

Don't say Hoover....he was injured and beaten up. That is why no one has even considered signing him.

Moose....maybe would add a little help at WR, but his skills were diminishing.

Defense...we are playing OK.

I don't blame who they let go. What I blame Jerry for is not bringing anybody in too replace the saved money he's not useing. Everybody could see in the preseason we needed another DT, Older vet QB and a Vet wr but Jerry handcuff this FO.

100% Richardson. Fox has been mediocre for a while. Richardson should have made changes well before this year. Combine keeping Fox/Davidson around, with his cheapness this season, getting rid of vets we could have used, and it's totally him. I also think he should have brought in a new coach this year, cause obviously Fox is gone and he knows it and has given up.

JR started the mudslide that is our season. All the poo is on him.

I blame, well, all of you. Everyone on this board wanted change. Everyone wanted Jake gone. Change comes at a price my friends. It also takes time. When all said and done, you guys will appreciate the sacrifices that were made this season. Go Panthers!

roflmao!

The White House just announced that George Bush was the reason the Panthers are 0-5

It's always management's fault.

It's their job.

The reason why it goes all the way to the top is because nobody knows or ever will know how much of the decisions come directly from the top.

This was a throw away year. No, there was not a meeting where the braintrust deep in the bowels of BofA said "phone it in in 2010" (hey that's pretty catchy) but some of the personnel moves were clearly made with risk levels that are/were significant at this level and they were deemed acceptable.

It may in fact be a perfect storm of bad luck that Jerry would have us buy but Jerry and Co. stocked the provisions on this ship and those provisions have proven inadequate.

There is undoubtedly a "who gives a sh-t" attitude in the locker room. Veterans who believe a new coach is coming have it because they do not know what the future holds. The 'replacements' as I like to call them have it as they know their days are likely numbered. The CBA is holding this team hostage.

It may be good business sense and some may not like that but this is a business and if I have to suffer through '10 and maybe even '11 to make sure we even have a franchise in '15 I can accept that.

If you can't then you obviously have no idea what you have bought into.

While Richardson stripped the team of a lot of veteran talent, there still remains a great deal of talent on this team. The problem lies in the fact that Fox doesn't want to develop the talent here when he knows he won't be back next year. He doesn't want to put in the extra work and do his job and for me that is unforgivable.

Who do I blame....

Well, I don't blame jerry for running his team how he wants. That's why he is the owner, and we are the fans.

I don't blame fox, as he is a good, proven coach. I do blame him for bringing, and sticking with davidson. Although it wasn't his choice to get rid of henning.

I don't blame the rookies, as it can't be expected for them to come in all pros, or even having any consistency as they are rooks.

I do put some blame on the oline, although it isn't all their fault either.

I knew there was going to be growing pains...but I didn't expect Moore to regress, and losing steve smith on made things more difficult offensively.

Such as life in the nfl, nothing is certain.
