The Luck Hate Is Embarrassing....

Come on guys, I've wanted Luck for two years now but to rip the kid for wanting to finish school is asinine. He's a rare breed of athlete, he has a great head on his shoulders and he's making the decision that he feels is best for him. Just let it rest and start thinking about where to go from here and stop cursing him. Who knows with Clausen starting we will probably be right back here next season except the kid will be getting his degree in a couple of months and declaring this time around....

Whoever hates on Luck is hating on Panthers fans too. After all, Luck probably didn't come out because he had a ton of problems with the Panther front office. Well, doesn't that sound like he would fit in posting on the Huddle just fine if that's the case? Blame Richardson and Hurney, not Luck. If I was a Texas/California kid with no ties to the Carolinas, I probably wouldn't want to come play here either. He just better hope Buffalo doesn't end up with the #1 pick next season.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I know I respect his decision.

However, that doesn't mean I think it was the right decision for him. Being the #1 pick as a QB in the NFL draft is much more rare in this life than getting a degree from Stanford. He's such a rare talent and the timing for him could not have been more perfect to come out right now. Yeah, he's always going be financially secure regardless and if he truly is the best prospect in a long time he'll still go #1 next year no problem. But it's an opportunity I never would've turned down.

Plenty of great CEOs and founders of companies or actors/actresses, etc were in college when they developed their company or started making lots of money doing something they loved and they dropped out to let that business and/or their career flourish. You don't just don't pass down on a job to be a starting QB in the NFL and 50 million guaranteed. I mean is he actually ever gonna be an architect? Hell no!! If he wants the degree he could easily get it after his career. I truly don't think he's going back for the degree. I think he's going back because he wants one more year to be a kid because he enjoys the college life and playing with his college teammates and his sister also goes there and everything. Plus he has no pressure on him right now in his life. That is something I respect and all, but it's not the smart decision IMO.

We all have to get over it though.

I'm annoyed at Luck, sure, but oh well. It's personal because I wanted him to be a Panther. I don't really hold it against him. I don't think he's stupid, even if I think he made the wrong decision by my own selfish standards. I don't think he hates this organization.

A new coach could change everything for us in a way none of us can predict.

It doesn't take a "once in a generation" talent to become a franchise qb and reignite fans. We'll see what draft night brings.

      Chiefs vs Panthers

      By strato · Posted

      For the silly people that worship her it will be that.  The Coleman 'legend' thing, they did that with another fairly average player that was here and I sort of mocked or questioned the 'legend' status. Instantly caught crap for insulting someone's favorite Panther. So okay, Kurt Coleman is a Legend.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      You allow him to compete--you all are talking as if I am proposing making him the starter. Give him a new coach, new weapons, good OL, etc. and see what happens. You are saying, "Well Damn.  It did not work for 3 guys..."  Right now, our C is injured, we lost our top 2 WRs.  Better question:  If you need a QB, Why would you not take a chance on bringing in a QB who was a former first rounder, a good arm, intelligence, mobility, youth, etc.  and see how he does out of NY--with a better OL, better running game, better receivers.  I am not saying give him a 10-year contract, I am saying give him a chance. You act like there is no improvement on offense here--it was a 2 year process, and next year is year 2.  To me, how can you sit there with Bryce and an opportunity to sign a veteran QB on the cheap comes available and you say--"Not us. We're good.  We are waiting for Patrick Mahommes."  Jone's problem is obviously mental--and he has little support.  Why is this so frigging hard to comprehend.  It is called "bottom fishing" and it is better than sitting in the boat.

      Predictions for Brooks debut

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      I think we're going to fall from behind quite early and be forced to abandon the run game.  3 rushes -2 yards 1 catch -10 yards
