Choice quotes:

"An executive with a team that has been monitoring the quarterback market said Tuesday the Panthers “are locked” on Watson"

“But most league insiders believe Caserio eventually will deal Watson, presumably prior to the April 29-May 1 draft to maximize the return."

"Panthers owner David Tepper has made no secret of his desire to upgrade at the quarterback position. And Watson looks to be Plan A, B and C."

 

the Watson train is departing from Houston station sooner than later, despite what the superficial public denials are.  And it's headed towards the Queen City:  Read between the lines, Tepper is as fixated on Watson as he ever has been on anything, and he's going to make this happen, whatever the cost.  You can whine about it all you want, but we're not going to let ourselves get outbid for the franchise savior we've been waiting for.

I'm absolutely fine with Watson being Plan A, but I sure hope we aren't putting all of our eggs in that basket.

If the briantrust truly feels this is the best option forward and can get it done then alrighty, but it's a metric ton of faith in this staff and FO to overcome the price that will be required.

      Okay then, tell me what your expectations are for Thielen, XL, and Coker this year If someone wants to come out there and say they think Thielen is only getting 600-700 yards this year, then yea, I'm going to then expect T-Mac to get to 1,000. If someone wants to say they think XL or Coker is going to fall back to 300 yards this year, then yea, I'm going to expect T-Mac to get to 1,000. People seem to think I'm making excuses for why T-Mac can't get there, but it's the literal opposite, my expectations for him stem from my belief our other WRs for the first time in who knows how long.   We finally have a legitimate and full WR room, not sure that's happened since the Smitty and Moose days.  It's going to make them all better players, but it will also suppress all of their stats as they're all going to cannibalize each other a little bit.

      It’s certainly not my shining moment. But I still made it. Running the Sacramento marathon in December and hope to have a more Jake Delhomme-level of stardom there. The Everyman that overcomes obstacles to almost reach the pinnacle of success only to have it taken away by Adam Vinateri.
