This is a panthers football forum dude. And this affects the panthers considering for months it’s been talked about we are actively trying to trade for him.  Should we just not discuss how that would affect a trade?  
 

people that jump to conclusions and accuse the victims of lying immediately are poo heads. The majority of what I’ve seen (including what I’ve posted) are people talking poo about the lawyer and how erratic he is and others saying they will wait to pass judgement until more things are clear. Innocent until proven guilty type of mentality.

Being on a football forum has not stopped discussions from being focused on the victims of prejudice. It should not stop there from being concern for potential victims of sexual assault. That can be shown as well by not condemning Watson outright since this is in the early stages, ofc.

Innocent until proven guilty does not require slander against victims (such as suggesting they should have been "expecting this").

Folks can be better than this and they should. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I haven’t seen posts that said these women should’ve been expecting this but I haven’t read every post on here.

I feel like if they went for criminal sexual assault instead of civil sexual assault, they would get more sympathy.

As it stands now, this seems like a cash grab.

Fun allegation story:

When I was a freshman in college, a girl, to her friends, accused me of assaulting her. She did not go further with the allegations, and I later found out why. I had met this person twice and we'd gone out once with a large group, but I'd decided I liked one of her friends more than her and started to pursue her -- then these allegations started. The girl I liked later told me the original girl admitted she was lying, so she "could have me to herself".

She transferred a semester later, married a guy and forced him to take her last name. My name was cleared (and hasn't changed)

They got thoroughly cleaned up before any of these allegations ever came to light. That would've happened regardless of the truth to the claims.

Big surprise. Thots on instagram until a lawsuit hits, now they are upstanding massage therapists.

How in the Hell does a court case being criminal or civil have anything to do with whether or not victims of sexual assault should be cared for?

Yikes. Easy now. We have no idea who these women are and that's a huge assumption that entirely baseless given that we have no idea who they are or anything about them other than they are masseuses. I'm just saying, if you're going to pursue a civil suit that is largely going to consist of he said/she said type stuff, unless you're completely clueless you're going to do everything you can to clean up your traceable public profile before you pursue the suit.

Timing seems really convenient, almost like they’ve had this in their back pocket just in case.

Biggest bullshit ever.  Almost every massage I've ever gotten, and not talking about questionable places tell you to dress to your comfort.

I doubt it's the first time that this private masseuse has ever seen someone naked.  She just wants money.  Same for the other one.  It's definitely the wrong profession if you don't want see someone naked.

    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it. 
    • If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
