I feel Bryce gets another shot next year. I have a feeling a new GM or couch will look at tape and determine he didn't have much of a chance with the talent around him and the couching. Maybe they can build around him better. But then again, maybe there is some FA out there they decide they want.

When he turned down the Rams offer for Burns it should have been immediate firing.

I want Evero back. The defense is playing as hard as they can with a non existent offense. They aren't giving up. Considering they are on the field so much it's impressive.

Our special teams has been solid this year though.

Pay Brown. What the hell has Burns been doing ?

Do players not dive anymore ? Also hand off for 3rd and 12? Lol.

If Burns is this average in a year where he's trying to get a contract then I worry about signing him.

Brown not going to pro bowl is such a snub.

Number one priority is paying Brown. Burns can wait or get traded for anything.

Tough guy on a message board here lol.

Grats to Brown breaking the tackles record for DT. Sign this man now.

Yes with the .5 seconds he has on most plays.

How could Bryce really ever succeed with this team? Garbage receivers. Bad play calling. We just had a 3rd and 9 and threw a 2 yard pass to Tremble. I'm not saying Bryce will be good but man this is an offense full of losers.

It's just par. Dropped into by defense. Fumble immediately into Tampa hands. Now Chark with this. Nothing works for this team.

Good play by Bryce negated by another idiot teammate.

Dude wtf is Chark doing

I would rather see Tampa make the playoffs than Saints or Falcons so I'm torn.

Yeah all this, basically. I'm not saying Bryce is or isn't a bust, it's just too early and the issues are too vast right now. Those numbers posted earlier in the thread don't take account receiver separation etc. Also just the eye test. Our offensive line is eating dirt on many plays within 1 second. There are screenshots of the ball barely hitting Bryce's hands and every member of the defensive line has beat our offensive line already.

With our coaches I would bet CMC was on the IR 4 games into this season. We just never used him correctly.

If we were winning games and Tepper threw water on a fan.... would anyone still care? Not excusing him at all just something I thought of.

Crazy person using the library computers again

The Panthers have sold out every ticket for like 20 years or more lol. Jerseys are whatever but on paper the tickets are selling. Charlotte is a fringe top 20 market and like others have pointed out almost every market ahead of Charlotte has a team already. The area is also top 15 fastest growing cities as well. It's just bad business to move a team under those circumstances. The league is mostly a profit sharing league which means the other owners would basically be voting against their own self interests to move the team. I really believe it would be more likely the owners vote out Tepper before they vote for a move. And before people say "when has the owners vetoed a move" I would say that just like a lot of laws or anything they have a good idea before hand on if they'd have the votes so if they don't, it probably never came to light. And when has a team been moved to a worse market? Since almost all the markets ahead of Charlotte have a team it just doesn't make sense.

There is like 14 teams that make less money than the Panthers. I'm not going to say "never" but it would be really surprising.

I just can't see a team that is profitable being moved before teams that aren't (or aren't as much). It's all about money. But I concede I can't remember any move being vetoed when I think about it but that could be because a team would already know it would be before bringing up a vote and wouldn't even try.

I don't think the rest of the owners would approve a move. The team makes too much money. The NFL is pretty heavy in profit sharing so it would be silly for them to approve a move.
