I love that the Panthers already have Cam locked up.  Gettleman is doing WORK.  Seattle might lose Wilson at this rate.  

The Seattle Seahawks and Russell Wilson don't appear to be close on a contract extension, but apparently there is at least one offer on the table.

Seattle has offered their quarterback a deal in the range of Cam Newton's recent extension, according to Mike Garafolo of FOX Sports. That's something Wilson isn't willing to accept.

Oooooohhh, this could get interesting.

It already is.  It could mean a trainwreck season for the Seahawks, distracted by Wilson's contract extention and unsure if their franchise QB will be there next season.  I'm loving this.  Meanwhile the Panthers have their franchise QB locked up and are ready to make a run.

@ProFootballTalk Hearing from folks since posting latest Russell Wilson blurb. Current prediction: He's playing for someone else in 2016.

 

Well that escalated

They can still franchise him.  But they either ridiculously overpay with the exclusive tag or simply overpay with the non-exclusive, giving other teams a chance for two first rounders and an offer the Hawks couldn't match.  Not to mention zero long term stability. I LOVE it.

Wanna REALLY turn the screws?  Sign Luke NOW and piss off both Wagner and Wilson even more with zero way to satisfy both.  (Hell they can't satisfy one)

Go GMan go!!!!!

On another site a poster said RW was definitely worth more than Cam and that they were a 7 win team before he arrived and are now a 12 win team.  I argued the Panthers were a 2 win team (with wins over John Skelton and David Carr) and have averaged 8 post Cam, including the tie as a loss, not including the 2-14 the first two years in one score games lost by a rookie head coach in RR and the #27 D in 2011.  Win differential favors Cam.  Crickets after that.  Classic perception vs reality playing out before our very eyes in Cam/RW being selfish/team first.

what a turd burgler.  if he ACTUALLY thinks he's worth more than Cam to his team, MUCH LESS even remotely close to Rodgers money then he has legitimately went head first off the deep end, bought into his own hype machine.

Even funnier when Cam had an MVP type season and wins a SB while Seattle stumbles and Wilson has a down year... Gonna backfire in his face and lose money.

    • The term you're looking for is "malinger(ed)", and he didn't.  I'm not sure why Panthers fans act like jaded ex girlfriends.  The dude is clearly injury prone as his time in San Fransico also proves. It's not like he got to San Fran and stopped having problems.
    • My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again. 
    • Ok LT and Petersen are a cut above everyone else to me cmc and Faulk are interchangeable on this list.  though Faulk was better career wise
