Current market value was exactly what it was but i guarantee cam reaching out and saying he wanted a contract that would benefit the team is not what happened read again what are responded too.

I have no idea what your last sentence means, but I didn't say he wouldn't renegotiate or that he specifically asked for a 'team-friendly' deal. I simply said that he understands that winning is in his best interest and that he wouldn't be demanding to be the top-paid player every year. For example, his contract includes de-escalator for not completing workouts, something that other top-paid QBs do not have in theirs.

Then where did cam say he would take less money??

 

That's not how you making a guarantee works. It's not my job to prove the assumption you are making is a fact. Neither of us know so you cannot guarantee. I would say the fact that he wasn't the highest paid QB even at the time of signing is evidence it was not a priority of his.

No. The earliest he renogotiates his deal is the start of his last year under contract. By then starting QB's will average 17 or 18 per year. Including the scrubs. So I see him taking 21 per year cause he A:(Isn't a money whore) B:(Understands the importance of having a good roster around him unlike Luck and Brees) This is assuming of course he doesn't get injured or has a bad year or 2.

Every NFL player deserves to wring every single dollar they can from the establishment.  2015 total salary cap was well under half total revenue.  That's a whole bunch of dudes making a whole bunch of dollars that aren't on the field.  I don't blame any player one bit for getting all he can, they're the ones with their body on the line.

      this     I never cease to be amazed at the number of people who will run up their blood pressure to get to the grocery store 30 seconds faster or are racing to get to work like it won’t be there at 8:02.   The only thing I’ve ever done that I think added more years to my life besides quitting smoking, was to learn to go with the flow behind the wheel.

      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.
