NFL: Player Meltdowns


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

Had a couple of them yesterday.

Jets corner Darryl Roberts called out "fake ass fans" and suggested they should find another team to root for (Link)

Browns safety Jermaine Whitehead went a step further, going on a profanity filled Twitter rant and even threatening violence against a couple of fans (Link)

And then there's Jameis Winston, who threw out a bit of philosophy yesterday saying that a glass is never truly just half empty or half full. It's always completely full if you count the air (Link)

...

Okay, that last one wasn't actually a meltdown but I included it because I found it hysterical and it's Jameis :)

Obviously, the Jermaine Whitehead things is a little out of hand, but I'm wondering how fans would feel if one of our guys did something like this.

Got a feeling Whitehead is about to go bye bye. I'm just not sure what form that's gonna take.

He was already cut about 15 minutes ago

And to that Jets player, how are you going to call Jets fans fake lol. Anyone who is still a fan of that franchise is absolutely not a fake fan.

Whitehead was just cut by the Browns.   Good ole social media.  The younger generations don’t understand there are consequences to your statements.  

As I recall, DeAngelo Williams always had somebody running his social media accounts for him. Several athletes and celebrities do that.

It's probably a wise move.

It would be a wise move for the president to do that too

    • I've shown you numerous comps for other tackles in the same age and talent range.  His contract, taking into account his age, health, etc.  is the going rate.  It's a fair deal. I've shown you examples of how long it usually takes to find even an average replacement.  Hell, look at every tackle that has ever started for the Panthers.  How many would you consider a success?  They are not easy to find. After everything we've done with this team since drafting Bryce why would we decide to let our best linemen go and add a huge question mark at tackle?   FA is a crapshoot in which any guy available will have cons/issues.  If not, they'll cost a fortune.   Outside of a first or maybe 2nd round pic next year it'll take a few years for a tackle to learn the position at the NFL level.  There are still questions about Icky. Every vet NFL player deals with maintenance.  Between the contract value and history I'm not overly worried about his knee.  I contend his knee issue isn't anything to be overly worried about.  It's not zero risk but it's an acceptable risk.  Every player we draft and every contract we sign has risk.  You're blowing up his own negative words about his knees and ignoring him saying he is healthy and the knee is a non issue.  You have a strong chicken little complex with this team.  Being he has always been a Panther they are very aware of any health issues. We paid now because now is cheaper.  If his knee was really an issue they would have waited.  That tells me it's not the issue you want it to be.    
    • Sauls getting cut by Steelers if no trade happens.
    • No they are going to give Claudin Cherelus 2 spots.
