The #Panthers are finalizing a deal with QB Teddy Bridgewater

[RumHam]

20 million a year for a stop gap. We will get nothing for cam.

Can really call it the dumbest until you see product on the field.

I can't really lock in on this until I see Teddy has a 3 year contract.

The Panthers are the worst run franchise in the NFL right now.

 

That's saying something.

That may indeed be true.

I'm not really upset about this particular transaction though.

It makes a lot of sense.

That deal says "bridge QB" to me.

(ironic, I know)

Unless they’re planning on taking Love or Herbert at 7 who need a year to sit and watch the bridge QB only hurts us.

Prior to this signing this roster was in perfect shape to land us Lawrence or Fields. Now we’ll win a handful of games fall out of those sweepstakes all while spending a good chunk of money that could’ve been spent getting this roster ready for a young QB to take over.

It has been obvious for so long that the Panthers were moving on from Cam.

I do wish that we could have moved him for a return prior to showing our cards by signing a new QB, but maybe they tried to do so without success.

dont like it. teddy not good enough to win sb on a terrible team but not bad enough to get no1/no2 overall pick for the obvious top qbs coming out. so that leaves you somewhere around 8-8 again. 

stupid for a so called rebuild.

Exactly. Let’s me mediocre again. fuging ass backward stupid. I hate Marty.

Teddy is terrible but here is the catch, if we play a horrifically bad enough team he will get us a win. Those couple of wins RUIN our chances of drafting a top QB. Rhule, who thinks his system has been handed down by god, is going to find out that the NFL is a different animal from cheese d!ck college level "competition" where 99% of DBs don't know where they are on the field.

We are in a race with the Chargers and Bengals right now for the worst run team in the NFL...that's ummmmmm NOT where I thought we would be with new ownership.

This move just isn't smart long term, we had a simple, realistic plan that was right in front of us, and we choose the wrong move again.  Just a poorly run franchise, consumed with being below average.

[stbugs]

I’ll remember this move while we watch two other teams grab Lawrence and Fields (maybe Newman) and Turner around our franchise. Heck, even though I wanted to move on from Cam, I’d rather not now. This is a joke and we as fans should remember that we not only let Cam go, we also didn’t even get one of the potential stud QBs to build on. We got Teddy freaking Bridgewater. SMH.

[stbugs]

Oh, by the way, we are not only paying for 6-10, we get the pleasure of hand delivering a 3rd rounder to NO. I can’t wait until somehow they use that to move up and draft their QB of the future while we get Teddy.

He has a skill set that fits Brady's offense very well.

I have no idea how this is going to work out, but it does make perfect sense.

Why does this make sense?  What's the goal?  

To win more than 5 games a year?  

Also, to anyone thinking this is a great deal.  Look at his entire body of work.  Anyone can look decent in five games - similar to Kyle Allen.  

[CPFanatic]

Been following this team for four years now. I understand the love affair with Cam but many of you are living in the past. The guy is broken down and a shell of his former self. If you can't see the positives in this deal then there is not nothing that can be said that will alter your blind love. 

[WUnderhill]

I have a feeling this will go down as one of the worst moves in franchise history. A healthy Cam can carry a team, Teddy B cannot. So we’re going to pay Teddy the same amount we would have paid Cam in what will be a complete rebuilding year.

I just heard somebody on ESPN radio talking about Cam “competing” with Tyrod Taylor in SD, or “pushing” Mitch Trubisky in Chicago. People acting like Cam is some scrub level QB.

I sincerely hope he goes to NE, is healthy, and absolutely dominates with a competent coaching staff. I hope he shuts everybody’s mouths and exposes this stupid fugging franchise.
