A Falcons win over the 49ers puts the Panthers at the bottom of the division to set up what hopes to be an easy 2020 schedule for Carolina and an optimal draft pick. Kyle Allen may have had his last start as it’s reported that Will Grier will get the start against the Colts. Towels of Shame, the Sunny Side and Bag Fries!
New beat writer for the Charlotte Observer and the reason for the Panthers’ five-game losing streak Alaina Getzenberg joins the show to talk why Cam had his surgery so late, the worst takes on ketchup, the great David Tepper Debate and why – again – it doesn’t make any sense for the Panthers to go into 2020 hoping – not planning – that Cam Newton will be their QB.
Al Wallace and Kevin Donnalley take you into an NFL locker room with an interim head coach, with a losing record and the fanbase chanting for you to lose games for better draft picks – they’ll talk about why tanking isn’t a possibility in football, when they’re ready to see Will Grier and their memories of former Panthers coach Ron Rivera.
The Riverboat Ron era is over and David Tepper gets a jump on the rebuilding process as Perry Fewell takes the helm. As always, we hand out Towels of Shame and look on the Sunny Side of the loss to the Falcons. The 10-3 Seahawks are looking for another W in Charlotte; Ashlyn thinks it won’t be so easy. There are 2 home games left, and the Roaring Riot is going to be there!
With Nikki out of town and all of the Charlotte media handling…..some news, Colin & Josh are here to talk about the end of the Ron Rivera Era, where the Panthers go from here, whether or not David Tepper revealed who he might be looking at for the next head coach of the Panthers, why this happened now and whether or not it was the correct decision at all.
