According to Voth on BBR, Johnson wants to test the market first and would be willing to return. So he is looking for more money then D.G was willing to fork over. The man has made MILLONS of dollars from this club and was unwilling to return for the money offered. How many of you would want him back if he decides to take the Gettie figure after testing the market? Or would you rather move on from him and start anew, regardless if he would return?

I don't blame him one bit for testing the market. He hasn't performed up to his pay level here but he will almost certainly get a bigger pay day elsewhere.  Pass rushers usually get overpaid in free agency. 

 

I'd have no problem with him coming back. He is a very good 4-3 end when healthy and also had five sacks in our last two postseasons (one per game average)

First of all, the majority here would take money over the other option, so i don't get the double standard.

I don't blame him wanting to find out his value. 

Stop acting scorned.

The thing I don't get is, we are talking a few millions difference after he's made what 35-50 over the course of his career? At this point, my highest priority would be getting a ring.

Scorned?  I don't give a shat either way if he comes back or not....just relating what was said on BBR.

He's obviously damaged goods or else we'd be sitting pretty with having our good old, guaranteed, 10-sack per season Big Money rolling strong on the field.

you can't tell me that we'd let go of a perrinial pro-bowler at a position as crucial to our success as is our DEs.

Its obviously more than just money as to the reasons he got cut.

Now it becomes a numbers game.  Is it worth a couple million extra to him to leave his team? Say Atlanta, or Jax, or whoever with space offers him 8 a year, and the Panthers are offering 5-6...why leave?  Me thinks he might be back unless some team goes stupid.

His nickname is Big Money...he is going where the cash is.

Good question, Jmac.  I think you have to look forward and not in the past when talking contract.  Hurney used contracts to reward past performance, when only future potential is important.  This was most evident in the Jake Delhomme contract, after Tommy John surgery.  Nobody would have paid half what MH paid him.

      Bryce Young is a problem — what would you do if you were Dan Morgan?

      By CRA · Posted

      Dave would have the excuse/logic that he hasn’t been able to bring a QB that fits his O.  That was the prior HCs QB and it got that HC fired with quickness.   Can’t expect Dave to win this year without a QB if he went 5-12.  Morgan tied Bryce to him by not dealing him.   Be horrible this year and Dave isn’t getting more time most likely

      Highest rate of incompletions due to WR error

      That's a serious word salad. Anywho. Both Justin Fields and Daniel Jones have always had something Bryce Young does not possess. The necessary physical tools.

      Highest rate of incompletions due to WR error

      By Loyalty4Life · Posted

      What it feels like is a horrible source reality. What a person sees is a horrible source for reality. Stats can be easily misunderstood because because they are interpretive and contextual. Very large data sets with dozens more more connected variables are difficult to deal with and understand correctly. Throw in confirmation bias, abstraction, emotions and the way human brains are wired make it really easy to roll with eye tests and intuition. The negativity for Bryce was really high and most were ready to trade that asset for peanuts until the second half of last year when he began to play much, much better.  Hope sprang eternal.  The Saints game last year.  Going toe to toe and almost beating the two teams who went to the Superbowl last year.  Beating the Falcons when the Falcons had everything to play for.  Haters started adjusting their tune. Fan and media starting saying it looks like Carolina has found their franchise QB.   The real answer was and is, maybe. If he plays great on Sunday the anti-Bryce crowd will find other excuses or say it's only one game. If he plays horrible, it'll be more of the "I told you so. I knew it before he was drafted." (which is beyond stupid since there there is not an actual way to know if a player will be successful in the NFL or not.) I'll leave with a simple example.  Of the initial list of incompletions due to WR error, Jarod Goff has 0.  He was 31 for 39 at an almost 80% completion percentage.  His WR's much has balled out. Except when you add the facts that only 11 of those passes were to WRs.  14 were to RB's and 6 to the TE.  Gibbs has 10 of those receptions and he's elite so that explains why we shouldn't put much stock into this stat.  But then we see that Gibbs also set an NFL record with the least number of yards (31) for any player with at least 10 receptions in a game. Fun stuff! Oh yeah.  From week 1 how many people had Justin Fields and Daniel Jones playing at elite levels?
