Carolina Panthers sign Eric Reid to a one year deal

If Reid really was having concussion issues, the best thing for a player in that situation is extended time away from contact.  He's had that.

I hope it's all behind him, and he comes in and plays at the level he is capable of.  If / when that happens, we will no longer be able to point at our secondary as a weakness.  We'll still be thin, but not weak.

surprised i haven't seen any outrage. we've seen all the indignant whiney-baby people on other teams burning jerseys and crying when stuff happens. so far i've seen 100% positive from panther fans. not sure if impressed or disappointed there's not any drama, which is the thing i live for the most

I was against what I perceived to be a circus and distraction, and a player who’s best years I felt were behind him. 

I was shown to be wrong on both accounts (didn’t realize Reid was still so young) and quickly changed my tune and hopped on board. 

Cant see any rational Panther fan not being on board with this. We just signed a pro bowl safety for probably cheap and fixed a GLARING issue on our defense. 

Win win win win

    • It’s wild to me that so many of you guys are threatened by the idea of an opposing team fan who is polite in 2025. He’s been posting here on and off for years, usually when our teams play each other which hasn’t been for a while. I’d maybe understand this treatment if it was a falcons or saints fan, but packers fans in general are one of the nicer fan bases as long as you aren’t another NFC north team (especially the bears).   
    • Some players excel on the big stage, while others freeze and succumb to the pressure. I’m not convinced Cam took a dive. I think he didn’t handle the stage very well. The pressure got to him and he folded. He wouldn’t be the first quarterback or player to struggle in a Super Bowl. Two HOF examples - John Elway and Jim Kelly. The 2002 MVP, Rich Gannon, threw 5 interceptions against the Bucs. Poor performances happen.  Unless of course you believe all these players threw the games they played in, but if that occurred, surely someone by now would have admitted taking a dive? 🤷‍♂️
    • It was always a matter of time with Cam’s playing style and a shorter shelf life than passers that protect themselves. I suppose Cam could have still been playing in 2028 ten years after the hit took place, but he would need to have evolved as a quarterback and become more of a passer than the dual threat maestro he was. It’s sad because it makes us think of what could have been, but I do feel it was always a matter of time until all the hits took their toll.
