Statement:

“Since snuggling up tight to the schweaty bewbie crease of the Panthers general manager, my philosophy has been to always do what’s in the best interest of Dave Gettleman, which means absorbing swamp ass and supporting roster cards and Skoal cans so the big guy can build a team to sustain success.  I don’t subscribe to the 'baggy' theory, that coaching shorts have to hang low and cover the knee caps.  I don’t subscribe to the ‘his balls need to breath’ theory, because in my mind Dave’s balls are the brassiest of all GMs and they can sustain success hanging low in Spartanburg heat or retracted up high and tight in the frozen tundra of Green Bay. Sustained success can be accomplished by being taut and intentionally hiked up to show a little thigh when patrolling the fields in his golf cart.

"When Dave decided to cut the tag off my seam, we were fine with the humid and hot conditions we were about to face on a daily basis.  We are a team, he and I.  As we got deeper into the Spartanburg schedule, we realized there was a significant difference in our thoughts and the meteorologists. The intervening weeks gave us additional time to evaluate where we are going as man and his outer garment.  With the realization that cooler temps were not going to get done, our internal conversations kept leading us to the fact that showing more moose knuckle was becoming less attractive. So we made our decision yesterday and we are moving on.  I am heading on to leaner pastures, hoping to land on the buttocks of less portly but equally driven individual.

"I will say that my relationship with Dave was professional and respectful in tone, even as he was squeezing out early morning flatulence.  I looked forward to hearing the daily #ShortsReport from Jeremy Igo, who so eloquently described the location of my snug fit. I certainly respect Dave and all that he has done for my brand. It is with sagging and stretched elastic, I wish Dave well."

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
