  1. About to see the Darnold of old in that situation. Good for him for cashing in on a good season in a great situation.
  2. Typical Panthers safety. I don't know why we want undersized LBs playing safety in today's NFL.
  3. Definitely for 25 year olds. There's no bargains shopping for guys in their prime. Contenders sometimes get bargains with aging vets ring shopping but bad teams don't get bargains ever.
  4. I think it signals that we think the odds of him being there is slim to none. I'd still take him if he was but ultimately I expect him to be gone and I think we draft more of a NT type after the 1st.
  5. Gonna have to agree to disagree. Tremble is the type of contributor you want on a rookie contract or off the waiver near veteran minimum. As far as age goes, it's really not a relevant factor on a two year contract.
  6. The "nothing burger" bad decisions accumulate to create David Tepper's Panthers.
  7. Didn't apply. Didn't want to go and knew I couldn't afford it anyway. Wake offered my broke ass $5k. UNC offered me not a cent. LOL
  8. I mean, betting on Tepper's Panthers to field trash has been free money.
  9. I wonder how many games we've been favored in since Tepper bought the team? I bet the number is in the single digits.
  10. Well, let's hope he stays healthy. History suggests otherwise but we'll see...
  11. And still yet Tremble level players will get signed for vet min after final roster cuts.
  12. Except in your scenario Darnold on the tag makes a lot more sense than the ghost of what used to be Aaron Rodgers
  13. It's significantly outpacing inflation at the figures your government wants you to believe.
  14. I'm gonna be honest, these contracts are causing my interest in the sport to diminish. The contracts keep increasing exponentially and so do the ticket prices, merchandise, concessions, etc. while the typical fan is falling behind vs. inflation. I'm a football junkie but at some point I'm going to force myself to to lose interest in the billionaire play things. I'm getting pretty fuging close. Hell, I'll just watch local HS football to get my fix because college football is going down the same path. https://www.nfl.com/news/bills-reigning-mvp-josh-allen-agree-to-six-year-deal-worth-330-million
  15. We keep drafting athletic wonders who can't play football and we can't figure out why it's not working. Unfornately Shemar Stewart had David Tepper's Panthers written all over him. We might as well just start signing guys off the Olympic track and field squad.
  16. Why in God's name would the Vikings want Rodgers??? They just spent a top 10 pick on McCarthy and they're letting Darnold walk who played really well for them. Rodgers would've been exciting five years ago. Not so much now.
  17. Yep. Given their situation they honestly should've traded him. They need to be trying to acquire talent on rookie contract while they work through this Watson contract anchor around their necks. They need draft capital on top of draft capital.
  18. Individually, sure. But man, unless the Browns can fall backassward into a good QB on a rookie contract they're cap fuged hard for the foreseeable future with damaged goods Watson and now this.
  19. "I demand to be traded to a contender! I want to win!" "Wait... what was the number on that check again?? Gimme dat pen!!!"
  20. He's a backup but probably better than our current backups.
  21. I'm rooting for Dan. Loved him as a player and seems like a legitimately good dude but I'm not just going to fanboy what seems like obviously dumb moves.
  22. It was an idiotic move. He should've been on the hot seat and gets a big extension instead.
  23. I remember Phil Jackson saying 15 years ago that Michael Jordan would've averaged 50 a game in the league at that point and the game has gotten exponentially softer since then.
  24. Been trending this way for years. Growing up college basketball was by far and away my favorite sport. I've been pretty Carolina only for over a decade now with my college basketball watching. I used to NEVER miss a Carolina basketball game and in recent years I always miss several games. It's just less of a priority for me now. I haven't watched a full NBA game in probably a decade. The sport is just a shadow of itself now. That's why Armando Bacot is my favorite player in recent years. The type of old school hard nosed big man that just doesn't really exist in the modern game.
  25. We haven't been okay for years. Dumb contracts to marginal players aren't gonna help change that trend.
