Good thing we didn't let Ginn walk for peanuts while improving our arch rival and hampering our own offense.

Oh wait....

Letting Gin go was not bad. Not going after some decent wr for depth was. Getting a wr that was a 5th wr off another team that wasn' necessarily loaded at wrs was.  This Gin thing is a dead horse he wasn' worth top wr money. Byrd and Samuel are Ginns replacement its just that injuries well you know hurt.

In hindsight letting Ginn go was certainly a mistake but one that couldn't really be foreseen at the time. Ginn was terrible everywhere else he had ever been and Cam made him look amazing. His inconsistency and drops hurt us a ton though and we wanted better. Byrd and Samuel have both showed a ton of promise to replace Ginn and both got hurt. Can't blame anyone for injuries.

Yeah man, Ginn sure looks atrocious in NO right now. What was I thinking.

Samuel is made of glass and Byrd was buried on our depth chart by our genius head coach.

There was virtually no downside to signing him to a 2 year deal for depth at the very least while we brought along younger guys.

Some of you guys can convince yourselves of anything. Geez.

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      fuging Christ dude this isnt hard.  Like at all.  I get you simping for this poo team is your thing but sometimes you have to look at reality.   Even removing his bum knee from the equation, none of this made sense.  He is 31.  He has been paid handsomely for his service here.  He was currently under contract for this season.  Why in the holy fug did anything have to be done 2 weeks before the season started.   The people for this move, in this thread are saying A) He deserved it (this is the nfl it doesnt work like that  B) It frees up cap space (then why in the fug didnt we do this in Feb or C) You logic (We are getting a deal at 53 million guaranteed for the next 3 years.   You realize with this deal we cannot cut or trade his ass for 3 years.  You understand this right?   So in my opinion we should have let this ride into the offseason and go from there, what he is going to threaten to walk, big fuging deal he would be 32 on a chronically bad knee, what other moronic franchise is going to give him 40 million up front?  It wasnt going to happen.   And you are acting like its impossible to replace a 32 year old RT with a bum knee.  Just go and draft someone, move Icky to RT.  There are tons of options instead of extending this dude 2 weeks before the fuging season.  The truth is Morgan and the shitheads in the FO fell for this dudes crying act and got all sentimental and shelled out another ext.  We are a poverty ass franchise that doesnt act professionally

      Level Of Enthusiasm Going into Game 1

      5 Im glad football is back but after the embarrassment that was the browns pre season game where our starting D made Sanders look like a serviceable NFL QB, I lost hope again for a successful Panthers campaign this year.  I do hope I’m wrong!
