Lost in the big news today.. are we suppose to read into this as he expects cam to be back with the team next hear? I'm seeing him say more things that point in that direction than the more overwhelming hes done and out the door-already talking to Chicago nonsense from earlier. Just based off the comments I have heard him say, not based on what the"experts" are hearing.

In terms of Cam long term here the more telling thing to me is actually the "5 years to be consistent winner" comment....

Yea...that's not a thing if you have your franchise QB already in place....that's the writing I see on the wall. With Cam and a competent draft we're back out and winning. But it also does seem to me like Tepper may like the idea of Cam on a cheap 1 year deal to see what it looks like with S. Turner at OC and if it works out then great.

Maybe the reason he retained Hurney is for not making the 36 million dollar mistake? Who knows at this point, but everyone is under the microscope from this point forward.

Here is how I look at it:  If Cam were playing on another team and was released or put on the trading block, and he had not  been healthy for 2 seasons + and has not won a game in in his last 8, would I offer him a $20m per year deal to play for my team?

That would be a big ole bowl of NOPE.

Cam is not a pitcher in baseball.  Wins and losses is not a QB stat.

The Franchise hopes his foot and shoulder will be good.

 

The Franchise is very doubtful that will be the case.

 

These two things are not mutually exclusive.

Yep.

Best chance we've got of winning is a healthy Cam. They know this. 

The chances of Cam coming back healthy are slim. They know this too.

As to his comments regarding Newton, I'd agree that they're based more in hope than in reality. If I were applying them to real life, I might say I sure hope this lottery ticket I bought gets me a million dollars but I'd better keep working at my job just in case.

On the flipside, the comments about Rome not being built in a day, a new head coach not being a savior and that maybe it takes five years to build a consistent winner all sound like Tepper is prepared for a rough stretch of rebuilding. And no, that likely doesn't include Newton.

it really does suck to think that crappy Bucs game is gonna be the last image we have of him in a Panther uniform, but unfortunately that's probably true.

Precisely where I stand.

Hope is great and all, but it don't win football games.

      Maxx Crosby is not happy

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      I don't necessarily think he will be moved, I would currently be leaning against that notion. I think a lot will depend on the coaching situation. Carroll certainly can't be thinking about wanting to go through a serious strip down and overhaul, so the longer he plans to remain, the less likely I think Crosby gets moved.

      Smitty on TMac

      I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches.

      Give Legette another season?

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.
