  1. I haven't read the whole thread but it seems silly to me to speculate that McDermott is bringing in new personnel guys.

     

    DW hires and manages the personnel guys. McD hires and manages the coaches.

     

    McD bringing in his personnel guy makes as much sense as Dough hiring assistant coaches.

    McD has worked as a scout. If he brings in his own guys he becomes the de facto GM

  2. Disney ruined ESPN. They are trying to cut costs and have driven out the high salaried analysts that have been there for decades.

     

    They don't realize by trying to get ratings with the likes of Stephan A Smith, which they do, several sports fans who are turned off by this directive, do more than not watch Stephan A. Smith, they turn off ESPN all together. ESPN used to be great but it is barely watchable now and I personally do not watch it except for live sports action.

     

    Turn on the NFL network for the draft, it is better coverage anyways. ESPN is a sinking ship and I personally look forward to seeing ESPN getting passed by its competitors.

    i concur. They're on suicide watch

  3. Is it possible that Whaley, who by all accounts doesn't like, and hasn't performed well at press conferences, actually asked not to do any more press conferences? And Pegs, who also seemingly doesn't like talking to the media, granted that request.

     

    And there's nothing here that's more sinister than that?

    yes I thought this as well. McD is a better public speaker

  4. Carolina is going to play Seattle this weekend. Any predictions on the result? Any new excuses we can use for Cam :P

     

     

    1) This is not Cam's year

    2) The Panthers should have paid Norman

    3) Running game is not helping

    4) Receivers are not helping by dropping or fumbling

    5) Carolina has been playing all time great defenses

    this is a lame thread. You must a be Tide loyalist. The Panthers have been a playoff team since getting Newton. I guess he screamed bust when he broke Payton Manning's rookie passing records

  5. I agree that with everyone healthy we could make some noise but with any scheme change on D comes adjustments which I don't expect our guys to absorb until after week 8. I don't see Shady holding up his current workload for 16 games and I expect we will be a run heavy team again this year. If we are at .500 at midseason we have a chance at a wildcard

  6. our team got two years older, not better under Wrecks. On D we have Alexander, Hughes and Kyle Williams and a bunch of guys. On offense we have a high mileage Shady, fragile Sammy and a decent o-line. We are not set at QB and will need at least 8 games before McDermott's scheme makes sense to our players. I really like the HC hire but he'll need 3 seasons to get us over .500. I see us at 6 wins this year barring a Romo signing.
