Our OL was a glaring weakness heading into this season.....Gettlemen bluntly ignored it.

Only thing Gettlemen did this entering this year is tweak contracts that put him in good position for making moves prior to the start of the 2014 season. He had resources to help fix our OL holes....and didn't.

He doesn't believe in the style of football you need to play with a Newton type QB. Pretty much said it when he arrived.

Basically is letting RR sink or swim. Only real investments he made where in HIS defensive line.....the type he would build if RR were here or not.

I said this the moment he was hired. He would sit on his hands and structure things to act after this season. He will then know who his HC will be and THEN help that guy build his offense. He isn't wasting resources on this O unless RR earns it.

JR created this odd GM/HC pairing were the GM has to wait out the fate of a hotseat HC before he will do anything to help him.

Draft picks were not RR picks. They were DG model picks

Less the nonsense about Cam (you don't toss a Franchise QB cause he's not your style), this is all correct.

Its retarded because Gettleman doesn't design the playbook or call the plays. He handles personnel and salaries.

What the panthers did on the field has absolutely nothing to do with Gettleman.

Good lord people, will you swallow what any fan with a keyboard types?

While true, one thing Gettleman does control is who the Panthers sign amd draft. In this year's draft people on here wanted a wide receiver, and one could even have been picked up.in free agency (though cap space would have been an issue). By not getting Cam a new toy, one could take that as setting him up to fail if you're being cynical.

I don't believe that, but i'm not gonna argue this with you because i already have. You took out of context quotes to back up your claims. Rayzor verified everything. DG loves what Cam brings to the table.

DG had to talk up what he had when he arrived....

What we have doesn't match his blueprint for what he believes in......and that matters. RR being on the hotseat also impacts what a new GM will or won't do for his HC

Gettlemen supplies the bodies....and he knows what his coaches hope to do

Retarded IMO is believing the OL we had allowed such. Foolish to think our OL can allow anything consistently to occur

Having a hot seat coach that was for Ed on you....impacts decisions

What about Cam?

You think the dinosaur GM believes in playing the game with a QB like Cam? The day he arrived he pretty much answered that....he doesn't.

He wants to rush a front four, pound the rock and have a pocket passer to occasionally go downfield off play action. DG wants John Fox essentially.....that is what he believes in IMO

Why wouldn't he? Newton has absolutely shown that he is a pass pocket capable Qb who only scrambles when the pocket collapses or it appears it could get postive yards.

If Gettleman truly just wants a player who can go deep on play action then he already has one of the most accurate deep passers in the game with Newton.

Losing like this causes people to go crazy, this retarded thread is a prime example.

Gettlemen should have had the opportunity to either keep or replace Ron, but he didn't.

I said this crazy junk before a single game was played....

It may be crazy but it isn't knee jerk

Newton ha a shown that he is wildly inconsistent as a passer and is at his best when allowed to play playground football.

I think Gettlemen will settle for less big play potential and more traditional and accurate

      They gave him franchise QB money. Sorry but if you don't earn it you can be embarrassed.   He's rich he can take it. Stop feeling sorry for people who can't live up to their contract. This isn't a sport to be soft. Daniels deserves to give back some of that money he stole if you ask me.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      And it was coming off of a bye week. Perhaps he should vacation a bit in Germany in the off season, something certainly seemed to help him there.  No, really... He showed maturation and the possibility that he's turning a corner. That wasn't the NY Giants out there, but the back to back Super Bowl champions with the #3 defense in the league, with them coming off of a prime time loss. And that was a 9-1 team we just played literally down to the last second. Bryce played so well that maybe, maybe he wins over some nay-sayers. It's still early, though, but what a nice breath of fresh air that was. You can win quite a few games if that is your normal performance. It is obvious that we are still on the learning curve, though. But that was one helluva test he just took. Some of these QBs coming out of college just don't have a lot of games under their belts, especially in top end programs. They are perhaps just a year to two years behind center in games that matter before they move up. It can take them some time to hit their stride. We can still be cautious about our future and still celebrate a great game by the kid, though, and we should. He earned the laurels today, or had before they were snatched away at the last second.
