Or if they draft a QB at #2. 

I said earlier, Tua makes Moton the blind side protector.  A win win, if you ask me.  The circumstances, (surgery, covid, preseason--I would not give up on him, but if they do, yes.

 

100% agree!  Never has a QB been faced with all that Tua was.  Horrible injury, Surgery, still gaining strength in hip drive (power/ball velocity), covid, no rookie camp, no preseason, limited training camp with less reps than others due to recovery, no weapons in Miami, no running game in Miami, 3 rookies on the Oline (struggled with blitzes and new looks), and despite all of this was thrown into the middle of a playoff race with a Vet QB looking over his shoulders.

Because the O-Line wasn’t that bad. Get an LG or Center in the Draft or FA. And it’ll be fine. You posting at all disqualifies your opinion. Shrugs. 

The O-lne absolutely was that bad.

Bridgewater having a quick release hid a lot of issues.

I'm the opposite. 

The nice appeal with Charlotte is the proximity to lakes & the mountains.  Having lived in Charlotte, DC, San Diego/Encinitas, Denver, & Chicago, I'm torn but I just wouldn't know where to buy in Charlotte these days.  Maybe Dilworth/SE? Wouldn't want to be too close to South Park or south Charlotte i.e.. near 51/matthews/pineville.  Lake Norman annoys me.  I'm an architect so am mega picky and kind of a prude about this haha.

If I'm looking across the league, QB issues aside, city wise, I'd want:

NYC (Tribeca, Hudson, or in Manhattan, find a top notch penthouse, then a T-Swift Folklore type-cabin upstate)

Miami (Ocean front home, it's Miami, but I'm in Florida.  Mixed feelings)

LAR (Live near Rivers and Brees in North County SD, I hate LA proper minus a few spots like Highland Park/Silverlake.  Maybe get a spot in Malibu or down near Laguna/Dana Point)

Arizona (I'd get an estate outside of Flagstaff/San Fran Peaks and heli down to Phoenix, maybe grab a nice house outside of Phoenix as well for accessibility)

SF/SEA (Great cities, weather is hit/miss but they're great spots to live.  I'd get something a bit on the outskirts)

Chicago (I'd go for an amazing condo in West Loop and a brownstone in Gold Coast/Oldtown triangle, lakehouse in northern Wisconsin)

--

Charlotte is nice and all but I'd have no interest in living there.  Hell no to ATL.

I'm thinking SF & NYC are the top choices here.

Respect your thought process, but man, I have less than ZERO desire to live in NYC area...none, I don't get the draw at all, but people love it.

Personally I'd really be pushing for Miami, but I'm a water freak.

My issue with Charlotte is the same issue I have with Denver (lived in Evergreen for 14 years up until selling last June), the team facilities are on the opposite side of town from everywhere I'd actually want to live.

You can extrapolate somewhat based on his dissatisfaction with Houston.

He's paid a boatload of money, but the team's not winning. That would make me think winning is at least something of a priority.

Clearly, ownership by non-morons would be nice too.

Does seem he wants to win.

SF, LA, MIA provide the best opportunity for that...IMO.

Evergreen is pretty ideal.  If I moved back would avoid Denver like the plague but love Colorado.  I was in RiNo/Ballpark for 3 years.  MAYBE consider the Wash Park or Highlands.  Fort Collins & Summit County are even crazy these days.  Just too much traffic without a proper pedestrian oriented city feel but if I had the dough, would go for Evergreen and a spot at Beaver Creek or near Breck.

Yeah, I'm eyeing a 3 day stay at the Standard Miami for my gals bday in the Spring.  Miami is pretty dope.  I just hate Florida overall but Miami is hard to beat in many respects.

      So, after Sunday's game does that mean we're stuck with Bryce for the foreseeable future?

      Boy we agree on the dink and dunk. I don’t want to watch that kind of football.  I mean okay if you win with it, it could be tolerable but it feels claustrophobic, constrained, limited, boring.  But for some reason I love a smash mouth heavy run game that wins the LOS and gets the backs to the second level.

      I am really sorry  that  happened to you they say to never meet your sports heroes i have friends who met  mickey mantle when they were young and he was a belligerent alcoholic at the time  ut broke their hearts  I had the opportunity to meet and spend  time with Cam Newton.     He was the polar opposite of Steve Smith and his public image.   Polite.  Honest when asked question.  You could tell the things that mattered to him and the things that  didnt. The disappointments in himself and the things that hurt him  those qualities make him quite a good interviewer too  i genuinely liked him   Im sure as young, rich, sports hero, he has not been a choir boy but there is goodness in him  the time i met him i took one of my friends with me from the west coast. She said she didn't like him and wasn’t enthusiastic about meeting him.  She left loving him   No one can say anything bad about ‘her Cam’ anymore

      Agree about oline. They've tried their best to improve that area. But honestly, has it looked like the most expensive oline in the NFL to you? Not just with Bryce. With Dalton's one game where they almost got the old man killed.  Also YAC shouldn't always be hitting a guy in stride while he's running full speed. Pickens killed us after the catch and those weren't all hit-in-stride plays. I remember a play in Miami when a guy caught a 5 yards curl and took it like 30-40 yards to the house. We don't have that in Carolina. Horn might be the closest thing to that but he can't get significant PT for whatever reason. If Bryce keeps trusting his receivers to make plays, I think he'll become more consistent. Seemed like he only trusted TMac. And force feeding one receiver isn't sustainable. Defenses will start to blanket him and take him out of the game. And yeah, keep taking deep shots. I hate all that dink and dunk football. Hate it.
