I'll admit I was blinded by curiosity and possibilities at the time.  But why the hell did we think this secondary could be good?  I see 1st round corners barely make it on the field as #2's and slot guys for other teams.   Sure things could have worked out differently in a perfect world but it didn't and here we are.  

Was this planned?  Is this Getts way of driving everyones value down so he can sign them for a SB run next year?   Where there is smoke there is fire hahha

why dont you give Gettleman this flak for putting Ron & the team in this postion but i know your ego is coming in the way.

Hes going to play every angle there is in catering to the mob.

Ron isnt a dick.....hes not going to throw his players under the bus. Hes trying to make them better not belittle them. I dont know what Jeremy wants him to say.

I think Ron is a good coach but this years team is beyond him for whatever reason.  Offense did play good today but our defense is awful.  It seems like Gettleman wants to play with players in there rookie contracts and not pay anyone afterwards.  

I guess at this point it would be futile to trade for anything.  You have to figure 9-7 would be the bare minimum for getting a wildcard and that would require an 8-2 run.  However I am not the type that wants to tank just to get a high pick.  I hope we play with some spark and build for next year.  

I think Ron is a great defensive coordinator.

He's not a great head coach.

His overall approach is to believe that he can dictate with his system without having to adjust to who we're playing.

It isn't working, and it's not going to.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.

      Where panthers draft ranked against Big Boards in 2023

      What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.

      That doesn't void his contract
