then he is traded or they fire Easterby and fix the FO. 

Watson different.  He ain't just rolling back in. 

So you think firing Easterby would be enough to get DW back in the fold?

They all play the game for one primary reason, money.  DW is no "different".

Dude he isn’t even worth responding to, he has no idea what he is talking about, just like over half of the reporters today.

fixing the FO would bring him back most likely and end this.  That’s a win for Watson.  

Watson got real money.  Got it from football and endorsements.  And he will make more no matter what in the end playing football.  

NFL is changing.  They see other sports.   Ain’t just about cash either.  If it was Luke and Luck would be playing instead of retiring at their primes.

Didn’t Easterby help McNair through some personal issues? If that’s the case they are probably very close and it may be hard to fire him.

I think it is just McNair’s ego.  Easterby is a train wreck.  Cal has to see that at this point.  But he isn’t going to let a player call the shots.  

McNair takes an L no matter what IMO. He just needs to accept that.  Best L would be just to do the obvious and fix the FO.  But egos are weird.

If firing Easterby solves the issue they should do so.

Chump change compared to what his Texans contract will pay over next 4-years.

They sure do and NFL owners do not want to see their league go down the same rat-infested hole the NBA dove into...

Sure it is all about the benjamins, Steve Smith said so on WFNZ just this week --- just look at JJ Watt's deal.

Luke and Luck are red-herrings of the highest order, lol.

Do you think he gets paid more on sinking ship with inept management/coach or possible contender with smart management/coach?

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Let's be completely honest about this... Our WR room is AT and a bunch of question marks. Thielen is the only guy we know who knows the route tree completely, understands play calls and can regularly get open/beat close coverage when necessary. He's long in the tooth, isn't the speediest guy on the field but he plays like a pro, starting level wide receiver. Xavier, last season looked great at first, but man he kind of petered out down the stretch and would disappear in a number of games. He wasn't reliable on routes or getting open and where he was supposed to be a king at contested catches, he often looked a bit intimidated. I'm not saying he's a washout by any means. Anyone with his size, speed and catch radius could make it big in the NFL, but can he do it? He'll need to show more than he did in the preseason before we can really rely on him as a WR1 or WR2.  Coker was a revelation last season, he really played way above his (non)draft status and flashed multiple times in games and was a steady performer. What we need to find out, though, is whether he was benefiting from being an unknown that wasn't getting maximum effort from opposing DBs or if he was just outworking and outhustling everyone on the field. We should find out this season. We sure as hell didn't find out much in the pre-season (from him or any receiver or QB for that matter). He's still a question mark, but I think he has the look of the real deal. He might be this generation's next Thielen. Now, let's talk about Tet. High first round draft pick, first true WR off the board this year. Stellar career out west in college. Has the swagger of the WR1. And man, y'all are going to get mad about this but... he comes across as a mook. And in the pre-season he performed, well, not so great against poor opposition of second and third stringers. Yeah, he caught that one moonshot ball in the first game but really, nothing else lighting the place up. Rookie endzone drop in that game, too. He's still young and adjusting, I'm sure, but I was hoping to see something of a breakthrough kind of guy. I'm still looking. Hunter Renfro? Gosh, I hope he can make the team and make a comeback to his old form. It would be such a great story. But maybe neither one of those happens. We won't know until Tuesday and then, if he makes it past there it could be weeks. So, TL;DR: AT is all we can bank on right now. We couldn't afford to let him go considering the number of unknowns we'd be throwing out there for our QB, who himself is still an unknown. One thing to add: Our receivers coaching group has their work cut out for them. I hope they are up to the task, but the pre-season gave me little reason to believe in them. And I really need something to believe in here in Carolina.

      2025 Roster Cuts

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Linebacker is the biggest need - I hope we figure out a way to address it. Krys Barnes is the only one who even moderately flashed.  Super nervous about Trevin/Rozeboom as a duo (Still like Trevin) I'd be excited if we had a better vet to mentor Trevin.  Or a better younger guy to support Rozeboom.  They just don't fit well and it may be a big problem against the run, even with our DL much improved.
