My feelings exactly... and I want Teddy to succeed.

It hurt me to move on from Delhomme, and I knew he was washed up.

It's hard to believe in a football world where a healthy Cam wasn't worth keeping.  And beyond that, Cam as a presence will take years to replace.  If ever.

And as good a player as CMC is, he ain't that guy.  Neither was Peppers, and he's a 1st ballot HOF.  Or Kuechly.  Or anyone else.

The only guy that came close was Smitty, and he wasn't a QB.

Truth is, every time I think I'm over Cam, I see something like this and realize I'm not.  It sucks

You don't want exciting from a QB.  You want consistency.

Yeah, consistent "average Joe" just doesn't get it done in today's NFL. Back in the 80s and 90s? Sure. You could win Super Bowls with average consistent QBs backed with a solid running game and protected by a stout D. The NFL wants high flying big scoring offenses though because that's what excites the casual viewer and they've kept changes the rules and will keep changing the rules to get it. Adapt or die. If you don't have a QB capable of putting up 30+ TDs you don't have a shot. The Chiefs didn't give Mahomes half a billion because of consistency. They gave him that because he's a guy who can turn a two score 4th quarter deficit into a two score Super Bowl win.

Yeah I hope for his sake (and the team's) that he kills it and becomes a great QB.  But there is literally nothing less exciting to me than that picture.  I feel like we have a Nick Foles or Ryan Tannehill at QB.  Aka, he could work (for a few weeks), and only if the team around him does the heaviest of lifting.

Yeah, with CMC I feel like Teddy's ceiling could potentially be Tannehill level. Unfortunately, our D is a far cry from the Titans'. Meanwhile, Tannehill has thrown for 17+ TDs in every season since his rookie season including 4 20+ TD seasons. Teddy's career best is 14. That's the reality. Teddy having a run of the mill season for Tannehill would require his career best. Miami may have ended up moving on from Tannehill, but in all honesty he's been an absolute stud compared to Teddy.

    • to all the Low-T Betas crying about "pineapple doesn’t belong on pizza" / "we’ll get embarrassed if we admit we like it" stop the nonsense stop the embarrassment go back to watching The View with your girlfriend’s other boyfriend while eating your dry cheese-only slice like a toddler Pizza culture has not sniffed innovation in nearly a decade, a total abyss of pathetic, boring, flavorless display of culinary cowardice Do I think pineapple pizza is going to replace pepperoni and conquer the world, absolutely not Would I be excited to proudly order it anyway? hell yea and deep down you’d give up making out with your first cousin on the weekend to take a bite of a hot, fresh, pineapple slice We need to normalize pineapple on pizza to set the blocks for the future of flavor We have an up-and-coming generation of taste buds who need guidance a STUD of a topping that is COOKING a wrecking ball of sweetness that hits like a freight train a stud salty counterpart like ham or bacon to balance it a young buck of creativity for toppings that is just getting started a true #1 cheese holding it all together a solid crust foundation a sauce that is progressing It’s not perfect, it’s not traditional, but I am beyond elated with the direction pizza is going I will be in the pizzeria cheering on the boys stacking pineapple on that dough and so should you And for the national mouth breather association who will undoubtedly poo and flame everything I post… have a blessed day
    • I can't defend Richardsons failure to this point. And he is still as young as the rookies being taken this past season. I think he still could pan out.  XL is another case. I think he looked the part but some of his times and film showed he struggled separating and the fact he never showed up being good before his 5th season. Laad was my obvious choice at that point(tho I was banging the table to trade up and grab Thomas Jr when he fell into the 20s). Ladd didn't lack athleticism and had the route running and mental part to boot. Didn't see a weakness in his game expect he was smaller..
    • Surprised?  I wouldn't be surprised. I think you are missing my point. I'm not saying the Panthers won't extend Bryce.  I'm just saying that decision won't be based off one game.  This game is not going to decide if Bryce is released or given a 5-year deal.  Like, those are crazy extremes. The people who will be surprised are those who think the Panthers losing this week will automatically mean Bryce is gone in the offseason or won't be starting again for us next year, since that seems to be the only reason people are wanting them to lose.  Which is why I think it is silly to be rooting for that.  Because we can all pretend we know what the FO is thinking, but we don't.  So why not just enjoy the moment and the possibility of hosting a playoff game?  Like, what's the point of being a fan of the team if we can't even enjoy moments like this?  Just because of something that MIGHT happen in the offseason?
