Deja vu all over again...

Of course they are. They have a game today.

Well duh...season has started.  We don't negotiate during the season.  

[Mr. Scot]

As mentioned in the other thread on this, LaCanfora isn't the most reliable source for Panthers news.

But if so, as has been much discussed already, franchise tag...

A wise man once said: "no contract talks during the season"

I hope KK balls out this year so that our franchise tag next year will be an even better value.

Didn't we extend Kuechly during the season? I can understand making exception for him though

May have...honestly I can't remember.  Standard practice is to not negotiate during the season, but I'm sure there have been exceptions.

I can't remember either.  For some reason Kuechly came to my mind though..  I think he may have been the exception

Gettleman doesn't negotiate once the season starts so.....this isn't really a surprise. I know KK had a great year, but I think Gettle is making the right decision here

[the butch]

Getts is standing pat and riding his horse for a season.  Chill out guys.  As expected.

Hope we don't end up with another Josh Norman deal, Getty needs to get this done. He's too important for our defense.
