How close did the Panthers come to getting Stafford? Dang close.

[Zod]

Another wrinkle in the Matthew Stafford trade: At one point on Saturday, the #Lions and #Panthers were so close that Carolina was in the process of obtaining Stafford’s medicals from Detroit, per @AlbertBreer. The Rams came in with a more aggressive offer, and that got it done.

Thank you Rams!

Wonder what Teddy is thinking right now?  Lol.

I’m about another Teddy/Stafford decision away from sitting this regime out and coming back in a few years after everyone is fired again.

That was a massively aggressive offer. They basically sat down at the poker table and pushed all their chips to the center while the cards were still being shuffled. If it blows up in their faces, the Rams going to pay for it for a loooong time. Detroit, not so long.

This whole running a football team thing is hard.

Eh not really. What makes it hard is when you have an owner who knows nothing hiring coaches that know nothing. 
 

Never thought Rhule deserved the job. Didn’t do poo in college. Now you put him in charge of personnel and he seems desperate rather than calculated. Overcorrection never works.

This. Teddy isn’t playing for legacy at this point. He got more money than he deserved as a black QB. That never happens. He won the game. 

[Wanderlai]

Didn’t want Stafford so bullet dodged...whew. Is it me or are the Panthers getting close to crossing the line from being aggressive into looking desperate in their QB search?

No, running a football team and organization is massively difficult. Only about six to eight teams in the league are successfully doing it. 

And Rhule, in college he worked miracles turning around programs building from the ground up. The guy knows his stuff, but he's build a whole house starting at the foundation, he's not just dragging a trailer to a new lot.

Lol y’all rather stick with Turdy 2 yds, this fan base is a joke!
