Implications of the Rice Decision


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

a fair question since nobody actually asked you. Are you against an 18 game season ? Or games in London ? I am in favor of both because I hate long boring offseason waiting and the idea of extra football to me is wonderful and I would love to hear a counter argument I'm really not interested in fighting but I am asking you since the other fellow believes you are against it

I'm against the 18 game season because honestly, even as a fan, the season is long enough. More to the point, since the new CBA was implemented guys have been getting injured at the drop of a hat. Extra games just makes that worse.

Also against a team in London largely because the players hate the idea (as they do the 18 game season). Heck, it's bad enough for guys to have to relocate now, and then some move wherever and wind up cut. Imagine if that involved moving overseas. Plus right now it's a novelty. Not sure it'd work full time like the NFL thinks it will. And of course there's the 'oversaturation' argument (the League doesn't need to get any bigger).

Less so against the idea of a team in L.A., but don't care much for that idea either. I know the NFL wants it but the people of L.A. are largely indifferent. I wonder what makes the League think an idea that's failed twice already will work now.

Any bad teams have no reason to sign Rice this year, and good teams won't want to ruin what they've built by signing Rice and turning their team into a circus.

I expect some team to give Rice a shot in the offseason after the zealots have moved on to a new crusade.

Just one man's opinion though. An unresolved Hardy situation during free agency is what intrigues me though.

    • If it’s all the same to you guys, I’d like to use this thread for Tuesday nights game as well to keep this hate going. I have a feeling Tuesday vs the panthers is going to be violent in that arena.    @LinvilleGorgecan you please add “and Tuesday” to the game thread?  They play the Panthers again Tuesday. Thank you sir! 
    • Nobody on the huddle is saying we have an elite group offensively across the board. They aren't great. They're young. If you are expecting someone to agree with your position of blaming everyone around Bryce Young nearly three full seasons into his career you are going to be left holding the bag save for a handful of people who act like they are paid to defend his honor. Bryce Young is not a guy who has had to claw and fight his way into starting jobs in football. He's had the best to work with and been gifted roles since he was a teenager. The Panthers have one of the youngest rosters in the league and with us needing an infusion of young defensive talent in the upcoming draft we're only going to get younger. We need a QB who possesses the ability to elevate those around him. If you can't agree with me on that then there's nothing further to discuss.
    • All Bryce and the Panthers had to do was split with the Saints and a rookie QB. The bar was so low. They even had a whole bye week to prepare. The time for singing kumbaya was before that game. Anyone still talking about Bryce earning a second contract 43 games into his career is living a fantasy. He might get one from the Tepper owned Panthers but he's damn sure not earned it.
