Trading for a guy who might not even play? Who brings negative attention to the team? Who might look a lot worse playing for a BAD offensive coaching staff? Sounds like a great plan. 

I was joking but he has played for terrible coaching staffs and had terrible surrounding talent and played terrific. There's no real risk of a massive drop-off here. Its just PR issues.

Lol....Panthers haven't been a factor since cam got hurt. Where were we going to begin with? 

It’s sad too. We had a franchise QB, and it was taken from us at the blink of an eye or a tackle attempt. Screw Kelvin Benjamin.

Having a player like Darnold makes you appreciate Cam even more. I remember you had posters who were tough on Cam from the start, critiquing accuracy and other things. Darnold is everything they bashed Cam for

I get what you’re saying - but you can’t exactly say we would be “set back” when we’ve never been in a great situation anyways.  It’s a SB or bust league.  Heck, we can’t even compete in our own division.  I wouldn’t call going from a constant 3rd in the nfc south to potentially 4th a set back.  The reward outweighs the risk here.  Not saying I would be a fan of the trade, but I don’t think anything can really set us back at this point.

Set back from where?

Well imagine not having any 1st round talent the next 3 seasons, losing key defensive players like Burns and/or Chinn. And having a QB they traded for that won’t play until who knows when.

It can get a LOT worse.

“Unless Watson has all charges dropped and the accusers recant their statements”

This is something everybody has to understand will never happen. Even if he’s innocent. 

Hence why I also said the part about how no one will forget these accusations and the PR nightmare that comes with it.

The only way i could see us losing chinn and Burns is if we are bad AFTER we get watson...and i do mean after he is well settled in here. If you dont get him...you are still bad with no hope for future and they leave anyway wants rookie deals up.

      Bryce’s new look. He looks like a grown up

      By frankw · Posted

      Oh please with the wallowing in victimhood I'm going to take my ball and go home routine. You were just in here referring to people as super weird haters because they don't completely agree with your borderline delusional spin on what Bryce Young is and isn't as a fourth year starter. We can hope by some miracle that Bryce Young will actually be able to lead a formidable passing offense this season without being irrational homers and pretending verfiable data and what we have seen with our own two eyes doesn't tell us exactly what he has been to this point which is someone who moves the ball at a historically low rate.

      Vrabel and Russini? Athletic investigating.

      I am curious who's behind all of this though. A video and photos from years ago surfacing? Someone has a vendetta and is driving this PR campaign. I'm loving it, but I'd also like to know who said mystery figure is.

      I say positive things about Bryce when he earns them. Which he has a handful of times. It is all here and on the record but your lobby won’t focus on that or the flat out truth inside of our critical comments.  It is a constant thing with him and his backers - one or two good things and people are trying to extrapolate that to proof we should commit to him, while ignoring or making excuses for the larger portion of his track record.  When he is able to consistently turn in franchise QB extension worthy outings the tone of the posts will reflect that.  I have already said that if he would play like he did in the WC as often as we need him to, I would be okay with keeping him.  See you don’t want to talk about that though because it shows actual fair minded evaluation not stanning.
