Is is interesting to see (in this day and age I guess) is that two victims have not filed civil but only criminal. Yes you can award restitution in criminal and yes a civil can (and usually recommended) be filed after the fact, but you’d think it’d be lumped in now. It’s more likely 10% of women actually care about legality of it and not the money, while we usually see more examples (obviously) of the other 90%. Watson definitely didn’t play his odds on that one, having 22 individuals with allegations. As someone who works in law I would really like to see a lot of the discovery.

Personally, if things stay civil and Watson gets imposed a half season NFL punishment (conjecture), I suspect the price to be slightly lower that what Wilson commanded. I do not get the whole three firsts and seconds plus players type trade at all. The no trade clause will affect that as will competitors. Regardless, anything about At or over what was paid for Wilson will be overpaying. Something like two firsts, one second, and one player.

I agree completely. Do not want. But you must realize should he not be charged criminally, which may be decided soon, (Friday or the coming week, deadline of April 1 at the latest). This is most likely a civil only matter. Also keep in mind if it does go criminal, it does not mean he will be convicted. An indictment is not a conviction. It means a case will be built and go to a plea or trial. But it’s a sign when the grand jury declares evidence worthy, it means it usually is and most importantly, gives you a peak at what a trial would result in should you not plea. On a smaller related note though, we are speaking about high paid lawyers and individuals …a lot of things can happen and have happened evident in judicial history when big money is involved. Meaning, as a civil case, the only repercussions from a team’s perspective, will be whatever punishment the NFL decides to impose on Watson, and their limits within their guidelines of something that is in fact not criminal. I have no idea what that is. And I also have no idea if sitting out last year will play into any ‘credit time served’ agreement or argument presented by Walton’s side, on his behalf, that will provide better optics from the masses on the end result (which matters quite a bit) or possibly won’t even matter at all. I’m not an expert in NFL guidelines so not sure. Watson is pleading the 5th in the civil dispositions. Which makes sense, there is absolutely no reason to testify with criminal charges looming, that is kind of a form of double jeopardy in a sense, though only technically applying to criminal cases. It is still self incrimination, and legal officials recognize that. It is not a shocking move. The fifth is generally used in civil cases to avoid self discrimination. He can plead the fifth in criminal court however this will be very unlikely, and can be overruled by the judge. It is also only applied to specific scenarios and questioning. And it can be worked around regardless. Therefore, not really a tool in criminal proceedings, only civil and testifying for a third party case(s). Some crumbs for thought.

I actually agree with every single thing on there but if you notice this list is based on physical well-being. I dated a hospice nurse for a couple years. I was curious about people’s last thoughts and feelings on life. We talked about it quite a bit over two years. There was consensus on 3 things in order. 1. Worrying too much. Of course some may say on your death bed everything is irrelevant, but things are also much more clear looking back. Almost everyone wished they live life more relaxed. 2. Regret not taking more chances and risks, afraid of failure or rejections. 3. And finally my point - working too much, focusing too much on money. Not enjoying life. Point being, I find it’s either about balance of specializing. This list takes a more balance approach. For me, I specialize. I wear cheap clothes and drive a crap car. My meals are cheap. I don’t buy anything on that list and have 401. But I do spend on travel. It’s what makes me happy. It’s not something I want to regret dying. Imo, that’s the key. I’ll be perfectly fine driving a beater and crap apartment but I won’t be ok not traveling. Everyone is different. For some people it’s family, traveling to visit them, buying them things, holidays. The hardest part is finding what you won’t regret on your death bed, and focusing on that to your best extent. You have to enjoy life too, for all we know it’s all we got. On a side note I literally know a late 30 years old living with his parents with decent job and about 2 million in the bank as he has lived with them all his life, he is the most frugal person I have met. His dinner comes in a can and his car is a true POS. He says he will never change until he retires on a tropical island at 65. That’s not living to me. Hopefully he doesn’t die before then.

curious what angle people on here think this scenario will somehow end better than the 4 win, Watson led 2020 Texans…what am i missing strip the team, stack the picks, and send them in with zero chance 2022. fire Rhule, draft qb, profit give up one season and you can have a better situation

I specifically pointed out JR 2010 style.

i don’t understand why we cannot stack picks for key players outside of Moton and Horn, tank JR 2010 style w/darnoldand get the franchise guy next year with the first pick, while having other high picks and tons of cap…and then move on from Rhule… how is this such blasphemy compared to giving up the only way to build this 5 win team for sexual predator scum…why is this the ONLY way it’s desperation from a bunch of inept morons…if you’re going to be desperate at least be smart

I wouldn’t say that’s a reason for it not to be an option. Even at their state now can you confidently say the Panthers are the better team? IMO, not even close. I doubt Watson will have to wait any longer there than here for a ‘rebuild’. If you’re talking from a Seahawks perspective, Watson is only 26. It would make sense. On that related note the Seahawks were smart and stacked picks. They could trade for Watson and not be crippled. The Panthers on the other hand will struggle massively with such trade. It will be beyond crippling. Also as of now their coaching is superior. Their staff will probably change but betting it will be worse than Rhule is one I wouldn’t make. Lastly, as of now (things will change with contracts and rollovers), Seahawks have about 10 m more in cap for 2022 and a whopping 70 m more in 2023 unless I am reading something wrong. It appears the better situation is Seattle in every category. It would be a smart move for everyone involved imo.

It will be presented just the jury technically has until April 1 to decide.

can’t wait for yet another report of the Panthers showing interest and being laughed at

definitely not the Panthers

we can laugh at Rhule and Tep tho it’s all we have

guess that leaves us with the rapist teps new nickname is sloppy seconds

don’t mess with peoples money…child abuse rape assault carry less harsh suspensions lol

hopefully for next years’ first and Rhule doesn’t get to fug it up first sounds good, just not with rhule id honestly have cmc for 4 games than whatever dumbassery Rhule is going to conjure up, mark my words

Thing is - they are either way. The difference is, this way cripples the future. It’s just really hard for fans to envision losing Gilmore, possibly Jackson, and Reddick, seeing Rhule evaluate FA olineman wasting more money on Irv/Elf type signings, starting center is gone (though he wasn’t great, have a single top 100 pick and then marching down to the field with Darnold or Tribuski or a rookie and pulling out a winning season. I mean it’s a sign when worthwhile players and coach don’t want to come here. You’re basically asking Rhule to do much much better with an even worse team than he already had. It’s not hard to see why fans don’t really thinks that’s possibly or being realistic, and so to fug up the future Hurney style to do it is a bit confusing. But you’re totally right. Rhule and Tep have fought tooth and nail to avoid a proper, inevitable rebuild and it’s baffeling.

Maybe, all depends. In state, likely. I don’t know OP situation is or NC law, but if he is divorced or separated, a lot of states will take any custody you have if you move out of state. It happened to my family in Michigan. My dad nearly went bankrupt because of it despite having a great job offer out of state. And he most likely can’t take kids with It’s an absurd law considering things like child support. Custody laws are complex and in a lot of ways complete BS for a male.

Yea, that’s what I thought.

So his best fit was not where he was a ROY finalist and would’ve won had Young not played a flashier position? And he fits in the FS where he does not display his best skills? Can you articulate to me what Chinn has shown at the NFL level at FS this far, that supersedes his year on the outside and justifies movement to a less valuable position despite thriving at the other? I’m genuinely curious of your analysis.

All I know is Chinn needs to be moved back…the idiocy of this franchise, how anyone can look at his 2020 rookie performance and turn around and move him is beyond baffling. And then there’s rhule

active in FA? After Thomas and draft picks they will be like 10 mil give or take lol Moton isnt really a big deal, great olineman with no injury problems, flourished under different schemes…money to performance, even overpaid or dead in future is NOT what the problem is people, quite the opposite regardless, this is nothing compared to what is to come mark my words panthers need to and will truly fug up a couple more contracts (like shaq) to be active in FA then you may bitch

i mean honestly this sounds good to me tho i’d trade burns for moton…Moton, BC, and Horn that’s it. we need a reset…get some leaders, culture and attitude in here. this team is flaccid also Rhule needs to go to full reset

i mean we had last year to get mac or fields…you can say you don’t like them but at some point you roll the dice and develop someone unless you tank we had top 10 pick 3 years in a row…that’s really as good as it gets unless you tank i think this franchise is just too high on moral, non strategic victories should’ve tanked in 2019, where are all those moral victory fans? Probably still partying celebrating that win vs Saint third stringers…the reality and irony of it is they’ve probably lost interest

i mean he traded a high 2 for a guy that will never be ready even after playing for a few years
