So Cam gets to play this guy twice and Alonzo with the saints now twice. And the oline the way it's looked, omg it's going to be a long season.

The salary increases are not being spread around proportionately--when average QBs start making above $30m, something is wrong.  I think teams should have a scale where you have 1 A player, 2 B players, 5 C players, etc.  The A player--whoever it is--gets $20m.  The B players get $15m, The C players get $12m, for example--like the rookie cap.

The owners would go for it, the majority of the players would go for it.  $2m per game?  No Qb is close to being worth that.  Think about it--if the QB is on the field for half a game, that comes to $1100 per second.  That means the QB makes about $5000 per play.

Can't wait until QB's are taking up 25% of the cap. We are going to see a lot more rookie and journeyman QB's starting in the league. 

Soooo, you think I'm right about this being Cam's next to last season in Carolina?

The bubble is going to burst at some point.

Oddly enough, if I recall correctly, Newton was the first quarterback drafted when the league implemented the rookie wage scale.

QBs have been pretty consistently around 17-18% for the top end. It’s just that the cap keeps going up. Mahomes could possibly get 20%.

    • 6 pages of tuka and Seltzer arguing is actually 97 pages long
    • 100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.  
    • "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
