Honestly feel bad for the guy.  Microfracture surgery is no joke, it's ruined a lot of athletes... and this dude had some amazing potential.

Even if you do recover from it, there's a very big chance you're not going to be the same as you were before you had it.  Clowney might've had his career basically ruined because he tried to force himself to play while injured last year to shut people up calling him a bust.  Texans should've just sat him.

I don't understand the "next JP". Anyone who says that has rose colored glasses. JP was great his rookie year. Has performed well through out his career. Had issues with consistency at times but hell he is still in the league.

Because he was as good a defensive prospect as Peppers was, maybe even better... and Peppers was basically a sure thing.

Clowney didn't even have a rookie season... even those 4 games he played, he shouldn't have.  He was dealing with a legitimate injury, and due to the hype he had the media was hounding him and people were making fun of him, so he played through it and it got a thousand time worse, resulting in needing microfracture surgery.

In case you aren't familiar with microfracture surgery, it's very serious.  It ruined Greg Oden, among many others, and it's the same surgery Beason had before he came back and looked like absolute crap.  We'll probably never even see the real Clowney even if he does come back... probably just be an average player dealing with severe pain his whole career.

      You don’t even need 1b because Tepper is the only one foolish enough to wheel that deal.    Player wise? Jake’s elbow. JR and Pep getting sideways, no Carruth, Cam’s shoulder, Luke’s concussions, it would be a long list of stuff. You can take it down to certain plays in games. Fox chasing 2 point conversions in the SB would be on my list. RMJr slipping at the end of that same game was not helpful.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      Ultimately this just amounts to heavy revisionist history. I mean you aren't talking to someone that just popped out the womb a week ago. I was here all throughout the predraft process. The overwhelming majority of the fanbase felt like this was a fine situation and the best situation for a rookie QB to go to compared to Houston for example. The hype for Young and our "rockstar" staff was off the charts. No one could dare speak cautious skepticism of his abilities or they would be neg repped into oblivion. Only after he had one of statistical worst rookie seasons of the last 25 years did we get this narrative now that his rookie season actually shouldn't count. Complete malarkey if you ask me.

      On the field? Since I guess it qualifies as multiple instances it might not count, but have the damn refs throw some flags on illegal hits to Cam's head in SB50. If that doesn't count, 1A. Cotchery caught it 1B. Kasey keeps that kickoff inbounds. Off the field? 1A. Team is sold to anyone but Tepper 1B. We have the patience not to mortgage the franchise on that Bryce trade. Stroudwpuldve been the better pick but he's not worth it either.
