Oh please, you blamed EVERYTHING on Fox.

i did? i blamed fox for gambling too much with draft picks?

there was a lot of stuff that i didn't like either of them because i didn't think either one was doing enough to build the team and were too interested in maintaining the status quo. when hurney moved on from/away from fox he became more palatable to me. i held both of them responsible and often discussions would be which GM we would like to go with our new coach.

i thought that hurney had started to change and be more proactive but i still don't like his approach to team building. it's just not balanced and it never has been. we had too much experience and not enough youth in the fox years to go forward and now the problem is the opposite...not enough experience. too much youth. i also don't like building exclusively through the draft.

i didn't like fox and was more than ready for him to move on. i was open to hurney staying as long as we did something to move forward but i'm ready to move on from him again.

One thing is for sure, with the level of Panther fan anger and disgust reaching an all time high around Charlotte, JR will have no choice but to act decisively at the end of the 2012 regular season.

Honestly, I'm not sure who he'll terminate but knowing JR's history with this organization, if I were the grounds keeper, I would be very nervous.

From what we have read in the past, Hurney is only the cap guy. He does not make the big decisions like other GM's

Our drafts are not that bad. We have had a string of players however that we cut, who go on to make other squads and start.

Our college guys are doing okay in that respect.

Our big problems right now are fundamentals and execution. I would say that falls more on Rivera than anyone. If you say we have the talent, that lets Hurney and college scouts off the hook.

After last season It's hard for me to believe we are now talking about firing Rivera. But then it's not hard to believe when you watch the games. The guy is not head coach material...he's a coordinator. Period. End of story. Our game plan sucks. Our players lack energy. We don't adjust. We can't tackle worth a damn. And the play calls are garbage

This team pisses me off sometimes

Fire Hurney. Get that sack of pigshit outta here cuz it stinks

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      Did I mention that he was on worse teams?  Yes.  Do QBs alone win games?  No.  Did Cam, on a much better team with some awesome defenses ever have 2 consecutive winning seasons?  No.  So now you are cherry picking,  If the overall stats are similar, you take a look at him.   I told you that you look at his skill set---but you wanted to tell me that he sucks and mentioned performance.  I just presented performance--and his numbers are very similar to Cam Newton's numbers--a player most call the best Panther QB ever--and I agree.  By the way, Fumbles are evidence of how bad his OL has been--so you are saying that a QB in a situation worse than Cam's who has stats and physical abilities very similar to Cam's should not be given a look when you have Bryce Young at QB?  You are going with that story because you simply talked your way into a corner and now you are trying to save face.  No good GM would do what you suggest because "he sucks."  Sorry, but the facts do not support you.  But no matter what eye-opening details I provide, there are some who are going to go their Google machines to try to find some reason to support an ignorant approach to developing the QB position.  You ignored the similarities to Cam and went cherry picking.  I know what you are doing--but I am only suggesting (as I have stated before) that we bring him in as one of three approaches to resolving the QB issue. Compete with Bryce and draft a QB. Basically, I am suggesting that Jones has the potential to replace Dalton and compete with Young.  He is a battered stock that could get better in a better situation--that is human nature.  Instead, I am called a Daniel Jones lover and superfan.  That is good debate--But a real sign of immature thinking is the inability to LOGICALLY consider alternative perspectives--which is actually a characteristic of intelligence.

      I don’t get this, I know that is the popular thought process but I just don’t think it’s true.  For instance head to head last year the ACC had a winning record against the SEC.  The SEC had a losing record in bowl games. This year so far the head to head is 2-3 SEC and that’s with a fluke Vandy win in week one.  I see the ACC taking another head to head winning season after next week.  The SEC is mostly hype with 3 good teams, in my opinion.  But to say any ACC team would get exposed I believe is a stretch

      What the hell?  How is presenting Cam's stats hating him?  The point is not to hate Cam, it is to show you how similar Jones is to him and why you take a look at him.  I mentioned Jones has the skill set to take a look--the response is, "look at his 5 years of performance."  So I compare him to the greatest QB in franchise history, and the stats are similar--while Jones was in a worse situation.  Now that is "hating?"  Come on.  This is a meritless, ignorant, personal attack because you are wrong.  Just stop it.  You all attack the poster when you have nothing.  So saying "we should consider a guy with similar stats and size to Cam Newton" is now hating Cam and making me a Jones super fan- that is just stupid.
