WTF... are we actually building a team around Teddy Bridgewater? The thought is horrifying.

No. He’s on a 3 year deal and if he sinks you can bet the staff will move on.

We are building for the next franchise QB whether it be Teddy or someone else. The idea is who they think Teddy can be, what Brady wants in a QB for his system.

That’s who their really building for...an ideal QB for their/Brady’s system.

I meant that in the literally sense, that that was Rons exact comments too... until game time happened. We’ll see if Brady and Rhule are any different. My hunch tells me no.

Not sure why your hunch tells you that. Brady would literally have to become the exact opposite of what he’s been for his whole coaching career to build a system that relies on running one player into the ground, a RB no less. Can’t see myself betting on that.

CMC’s threat comes with him being on the field. Not off field. Even if it isn’t his designated play. Plus you basically have to hog tie him to stay off the field as you obviously have seen if you watched any games. Especially last year.

Panthers head coach Matt Rhule on 
@wfnz
 on the “don’t pay RBs” argument: “Yeah...I don’t look at him as just a running back...we see him as a ‘weapon’”. Rhule also cites wanting McCaffrey to be in a core leadership role as he enters his coaching tenure.

    • In your opinion. What do you think Moton's true value in contract, dollars and guarantees? If we had not extended him, what is your plan for RT in 27 and 28? How important are good offensive linemen for our current offense? How much value do you put on protecting Bryce at this stage of his career? How difficult in general do you think finding above average tackles in the NFL is?
    • The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.
    • That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO)
