Ryan or Matt?

That’s a fair take. 

And also makes me sad.

I hated DG but even I can’t help but think JR’s fingerprints are ALL OVER that Kalil signing 

Was just so uncharacteristic of DG. DG shouldn't have been a cheap bastard and should've paid Whitworth, Teddy and Josh, but even he isn't stupid enough to sign Kalil (one of the worst tackles in the league the 3 seasons before we signed him, worse than Remmers) to that large of a deal. JR wanted his family extended a bit and got it. That Kalil deal could not have been any more uncharacteristic of DG. fug JR, terrible owner, glad to see him go. Just hope the new owner isn't another terrible owner, which is a distinct possibility.

How is that fair? When Ryan has been healthy he's been essential for this team.

[SOJA]

Time to revamp this team for real. 

Kalil we can cut after next season. No reason to not find a new LT this offseason. 

Star or Norwell pick one. I pick Norwell. 

Draft a C to replace other Kalil

WR is a MUST. Funchess is good but he isn't great. Cam needs more help in the passing game. We need a bonafide route runner that has hands to go with it.

We need a young TE for Olsen to groom

Saftey has been atrocious for years now. Please get young safeties at both positions. 

We need a young DE too. 

 

 

That's a lot of needs

Anyone else see Ryan Kalil get blown the fug up on CMC’s first run to the left? Wish I had a gif. Maybe it’s time to have no more Kalil’s on the Panthers 

[*FreeFua*]

I think the OL we saw today is the same one that opens the season next season.

They sign Norwell with the intentions of cutting Matt the following year and plugging in Moton.

Ryan retires after next season as well and Matt goes on about his business elsewhere.

2019 we’re left just looking for a center and will then be needing to pay Daryl

really? Ryan chewing the ear that his brother is as good as me.

I think more because he’s getting older and missed a lot of games and he’s a poster child of loyalty signings this team is known for that turn out to be a toss up. 

He’s definitely a great player but I’m just pissed right now.

Don't blame Ryan for that, he doesn't make personnel decisions.

That wasn't a loyalty signing, it was signing arguably the best C in the league and the guy who calls all the protections and is the leader of the line and one of the few veterans on offense (at the time, with just Cam and Greg). Injuries since the signing are the only minus, and there's no way you can predict that sh*t.

In the long run, I don't. But he was a part of the sale. That's a given.

[Rags]

This is why I think we'll be fine as long as we keep Cam.

He's done just trying to be everyone's friend, he just wants to win.

We will lose Norwell because of Kalil’s ridiculous contract and that makes me sad. 

If we lose Norwell this o-line is going from pretty good even with the garbage can that is Matt Kalil to 6-10 season filled with disappointment. But I have a. feeling were gonna be able to resign him look at the cap I think we will be able to squeeze his deal out.

What do we need to be able to run the ball? Sign me up for some of that.

A new OC who can design a successful rushing attack that doesn't rely on the QB...
