Is there another team that can match the Panthers intensely physical style of play. I think Seattle define can/did.

I feel one of thd biggest reasons we beat the Seahawks this season and have stood toe to toe in our recent games is the fact that when Seattle comes out and punches us in the mouth the Panthers come back as hard or harder, and Seattle is not used to that.

I think the fact that the Panthers excell in smash mouth, and physical play is going to win alot of games for us going forward.

Not sure. But that doesn't necessarily equate to wins.. in years past we've been a tough, smash mouth team too..  that never seemed to pull it through though.. we were similar to the seahawks this season..with the 4th quarter problems and not finishing games. 

 

This year, our execution has been huge.

I included the Rams because of Gurley and the D.  Gurley is pretty much as smash mouth as it gets with 30 carries last week (in a loss).  FIsher's teams are always tough and borderline dirty.  Cincy was just a possible because I haven't personally seen much of them but if Jeremy Hill hits a stride they can be in the conversation.

Good point.  I think CLG is right,  it doesn't necessarily equate wins but can definitely factor in.  Example? Dolphins.  Everyone knows that they have talent but were sucking,  with Dan Campbell bringing more physicality,  they looked the best they have this season.

I think the Jets probably.  Wouldn't say Rams or Cincy.  Cincy is a good team no doubt, wouldn't call them as tough as us.  Same thing with the Rams, they got some good defensive players...doesn't make them as smash mouth as us. 

this. Rams tried to play that tough man game with us when we played them last and they lost... Badly.

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
