" It is agonizing that we have not performed at the level we had planned for and expected. "

lolwut

Not performing at a playoff level was expected considering how young and relatively inexperienced the team is, but I don't know what JR was expecting. Maybe he hoped we'd have a 3-9 record by now instead of 1-11?

Going forward, our plan of attack is to build through the draft while retaining our core players. We have one of the youngest teams in the League, and a number of those younger players have shown genuine promise in this otherwise disappointing season. We won't give up on them. We also have a solid nucleus of veterans that we will seek to keep intact.

Means, I'm not paying for high priced FA's.

He should have pulled the trigger on Fox a year ago. Lame duck coach gets you a season we have right now. That's why there haven't been many of them... trying to save a little money in the big scheme of things lost more money. Maybe a new coach would have saved the Panthers from being the laughing stock of the NFL.

It was nice of him to send that but what he dose next year will define him for years to come. If he goes cheap once again he will pay dearly for it.

This is the first year he has ever gone cheap. And we all know that was CBA related.

There is no reason to think he will not go back to spending in order to put a competitive team on the field once a new CBA is signed.

JR takes full responsibility while his fans pay full price.

It was nice of him to send that but what he dose next year will define him for years to come. If he goes cheap once again he will pay dearly for it.

yup, you can say what you want about Snyder and now Bowlen in Denver. But at least they are trying to put a winning team on the field, and that keeps fans in the seats and in front of the TV.

    • Fair enough. I never once said not supporting Tepper makes you a bad fan by the way. I can't stand the guy myself. You on the other hand don't like anything about the team. You can't stand the owner or the coach because his religion doesn't fall in line with how you feel it should so I'm curious why you are even a fan at this point? Hell, you like nothing about the team, why even be a fan these days?  We can go backs and forth about how many games we have been to and measure dicks if you want or but it doesn't matter. I've been to my fair share over the years. Some as a fan and some work related but I bet you have been to more due to my weekends being filled with some work I do at the collegiate level so I probably only average maybe 2-3 games per year tops. You have me beat there im sure. You are probably very correct on us not being the same in anything at all I am quite sure of that. If I'm a "mark" (as you put it) for not liking Tepper and not caring about Canales religion or his political beliefs or letting it have weight on whether or not I like the team then call me a "mark" but you're still a whiny bitch either way.  When you hate everything about leadership from their personalities to their religious beliefs all the way to who they vote for at that point why even be a fan? I can side with you judging by your beliefs that you have made apparent, if you owned and coached the team, I sure as hell would find a new one to support but as you said we are different. Enjoy Norway, it is a beautiful country. Visited last year myself and absolutely loved it.
    • The playing well part, depends on what happens going forward. It could have been a tease that will dig our hole deeper.  In the small picture of one game, probably his best game. Green Bay wasn't as great as people think it was. More like one good quarter. Followed by two games of exactly nothing. 
    • Oh, it was handled horrifically.  Ego got in the way of a plan.  I'm just saying, that he actually probably stumbled into the better outcome/plan.
