Why would a team be trying to free up 27 million?

    Who says he is/ or can? The same people with this scenario in mind? If they, or anyone needs that much to sign Kaep, or any available QB, there’s a problem.  Why sign someone who’s not better than the cheap, young option you have. Worst case you get Brissett a huge year for him to develop and take a QB in draft. He’s built a good enough team to trade up if needed. What’s the purpose of a QB who hasn’t played in 3 years, hasn’t been good for 5.

I would have already walked.  I have said Luke should walk (and he is the best actual football player we have ever had in Carolina). I was one of the few that defended Otah. 

But if we don’t get additional info I still think you can lightly poo on him for the timing is all.  

Spoilers!

A lot of curious empathy here. If he'd just said his body isn't responding, it would be viewed differently. I know I would. I don't wanna hear sh*t about your heart and mind not being into it 2 weeks before the start of the season. Had QB1 said his heart and mind weren't into it at this point in the season, the huddle and WFNZ would be forced to cancel fan participation for weeks.

Would you rather QB1 half ass the season and go through the motions? Then retire?

lol at the colts though for all this. Irsay is an idiot.

the stunt they pulled with peyton towards the end of his career there (making him the highest paid QB in the league then cutting him one year later) and then tanking to get the next great superstar QB and they can never seem to break 11 wins in a season in a weak division and then he quits on them just after 7 years?

yow

Salty much? It's not like Cam has did much better. I'm a Cam fan but damn until u win a super bowl ur nobody to me. Stats are nothing and championships make people remember u. Just ask Tom Brady!

You don't have a change of heart this deep in. When such a serious issue is even considered, it should've been delt with weeks/months ago. I believe he's been toiling with the thought longer than a week.

    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.  
    • Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
