(UPDATE) Peter King lists the Panthers as one of four possible trade destinations for Steelers WR Antonio Brown

As for the future, the Steelers have time to let the situation cool off. The start of the 2019 league year is nine weeks away (March 13). I’d let this thing simmer down. In mid-February, Mike Tomlin could quietly meet Brown in some private place in Florida and they could have the face-to-face they’re going to need to have if this relationship can be salvaged. It’s worth salvaging; Brown, 30, is a dominant and affordable player, at $38.9 million over the next three years. But if he won’t agree to Tomlin’s way, all the way, Brown should be traded.

Who would trade for him? I’ll give you possibilities: Oakland (with four first-round picks in the next two drafts and a coach who won’t fear the distraction), Carolina (though the Panthershave spent profusely on Cam Newton weapons, here’s one that could make the Panthers two or three wins better);

I feel like people are making this a speculation trade destination (say that 5 times fast) because of Tepper.  He may want to pluck one from his former team just to stick it to them. That and the fact that Cam and AB worked out together this last offseason so there is already good rapport.  I don't see it happening, but it's interesting nonetheless.

This is just silly. King is just filling spaces with words. Another reporter with no actual knowledge of the team. Not like the truth is any less depressing but damn if facts matter.

AB sounds high maintenance and his best may be behind him at this point. Without Moore and Samuel's, I'd take a look but no thanks. We got two promising dudes on rookie contracts. Next please

the hell is he talking about? 

Ol Pete is still hating on Cam since he snubbed him. Now he’s stirring the pot with this hair brain idea which is all we need. Does he not know about cap space?

    • yeah, I can get a little of that.  But that's not what he is posting in his argument just now though.   He said people wouldn't even concede to the literal ability to do it when pressed on the literal ability.  I have never seen that.  He maintains it exists somewhere.  I mean, using anomaly games to make arguments about players just isn't the way.   There wasn't a defender within 10 yards of our guys on 2 of those 3 throws Sunday.  No one within 5 on the 3rd.   That's not Bryce Young answering questions about his play downfield..  That's Bryce Young taking advantage of coverage busts by a bad D.  Which hey, that's part of the game too.  Recognition and seeing the field.   It can't totally be dismissed.   That's still good play.  You want your QBs to make those plays.  But it's not getting into the long standing critique of BY IMO.   
    • Deserved, I wouldn’t use that word. Asked for? For sure. Am I upset over it? No.  People forget that AT was throwing his helmet in frustration last season over his QB’s ineptitude. The same QB was pretty inept to start this year, no guarantee AT would have helped him in those games any more than he did last year.  Just sayin.  And Dan doing him a solid probably did not go unnoticed by players around the league. I think it increases his rep with potential FAs. It sure can’t hurt it. 
    • You think that was the fault of the guy that was lighting it up or maybe the bums around him? Funnily enough, those bums are still being bums in his absence. Who would have thought!
