yeah i think you've got it backwards

and cam's extension is going to look like a bargain in the coming years

It's already a bargain. Look at the kind of money kirk cousins got recently.

His second contract, Cam's, is going to be the biggest ever for a QB when he signs it 

Yes indeed but having a vise grip for the next five years PLUS the threat/tool of the tag in subsequent years will bring about an early extension and yet another win/win for Cam and the Cats.

Cam is not just getting paid as a quarterback but has millions in endorsements as well. He is doing pretty damn well for a guy who has yet to win a Superbowl and has a 3-3 record in the playoffs.

Are you implying that Cam is OVERpaid?! If so, you must be watching a different QB than me.

Lol I wonder if Panthers55 will make the same argument for all the QB's in the league who haven't won a superbowl and especially Luck and the contract that he's going to get. If you just paid a QB on playoff and superbowl wins, then most QB's are overpaid.

You're talking about the reigning MVP who put the offense on his back and MADE it the highest scoring offense in the league.

You're talking about the QB who earned the 15th (FIFTEENTH) highest amount last year.

Tell me you think there was just a single QB who earned their paycheck more than Cam earned his and I'll tell you you're flat out wrong. I don't care if it's an opinion, it's wrong.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
