QB mid season desperation and to wash their hands of it.

This could also be hinging on what Goodell tells owners about Watsons status during the owners meetings. 

Shouldn’t they already know why would they go through and have the picks and trades setup without knowing. I thought it was a done deal?

It's interesting that he says that if it happens today it'd be Miami but if the Panthers it'd take longer...What does Florio know if anything?(i'd assume nothing)

So if it doesn't get done today according to one "source" that means better or worse news depending on your position.

Oh it's really worth watching that video I posted above too for the Brady take....Simms notes what some of us been saying....4 defenders around our WRs like...oh...maybe they know the play? Its there clear on film and people in the media are starting to notice it too.

Wonder if that’s a Brady problem or a Darnold doesn’t know enough plays problem.

I know there is an offered deal in place and it's the best one. (detailed earlier)

Pretty sure the owners meeting will provide clarification.

Nothing from here or NY to suggest anything regarding playbook issues with Darnold.

"If you watch the film with me you'd see they are all over that Brady offense"

"Look how many plays we showed where it's 4 defenders around people"

That's a OC diss track

Sam has his own separate diss track.

Just straight tape don't lie stuff.

This sounds more like dolphins 75% to panthers 25% to me but we’ll see.

It's what it sounds like...them being in the AFC is a huge thing here too though. I think Watson is the one who really wants Miami but the Texans would be idiots to keep him in the AFC...HOU not ever known to be smart though.

I think we all can agree Joe Brady is in over his head and on the outside looking in. But as a fourth year pro you can't make that throw with four or five defenders around and expect to keep your job.

I actually hadn’t finish listening to video when I typed that and then heard Florio say the percentages lol.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
