It is so refreshing....

To see this

instead of this

Just watched the post draft presser, and tho he's a soft spoken man, Ron Rivera's passion and fire are clearly visible. You hear it in the way he talks. You see it in his demeanor.

No more bullpoo. The Panthers are returning to prominence in the NFC South. Sooner than a lot of people think.

I'm ready for the season to start so we can begin proving people wrong one by one week by week. Maybe I'm being overly optimistic, but fug it. I believe we are not rebuilding, we are restructuring. With Ron at the helm the sky is the limit. fug that. Lets kick ass on Jupiter too.

it's almost 1 am, i'm drunk, and the huddle is keeping me from drunk dialing people right now. lol

I hear ya bro, I feel the same way. Let's just hope Richardson and Hurney are ready to make a big splash in the FA pool. We need some more veteran help throughout the team.

One of the things that I appreciated about the Fox era, which took me a long time to appreciate, is that you don't need to make a big splash in free agency to be successful.

Develop your young guys and bring in solid role players to fill the voids and you'll be ok.

Then again tho... Maybe that big splash is what separates the good and great teams from those who are just going to be ok.

John Fox is taking too much crap. Yes it was time to part ways, but he was at the helm of the best run in our short history. Reflect on the good he did rather than the bad.

The man took a 1-15 team to the Super Bowl in two seasons. That is an amazing feat in itself. 03-08 was a great run for Carolina & I'll forever be a fan & supporter of John Fox.

I do agree with you, that's the philosophy for Hurney, build through the draft. But we haven't brought any FA's to Charlotte in a while? Anyone remember the last player we got through FA?

First one that rings a bell is Sean Gilbert... That was an epic fail.

I feel drunk dialed by this thread.

It's definitely fun to watch him talk. He knows his team, has great confidence, and has a 'won't take poo from anyone' type demeanor about him. If I were a player, I wouldn't want to have to walk up to him after I made a mistake. I feel like we will have a very well-respected team for years to come.

How about you get his cock out of your mouth and move on. I love Foxy for all he did to turn around this team, but the NFL is a what have you done for me lately kind of league, and lately he hasn't done poo. He was a good 2 yrs past his expiration date and I'm happy we moved on because I was going to get sick digesting that stale ass gameplan he kept feeding us.

Don't troll my opinion thread dude. Take that Fox lovin' bullshit over to the Broncos fan forum. It's a new era and a new regime in Carolina. Lets make some history.

He did it mostly with players Seifert drafted. No QB or WR drafted during Fox reign here did anything.

I guarantee Rivera won't be clapping and saying "we'll get 'em next drive" after a 3 and out.
