If you have a ring you get to be listened to.

If you don't then shut up and play.

Russell has a ring.

I don't have an issue with allowing QBs to have express their ideas to management.  However, at the end of the day it is management's job to manage and a coaches job to coach.  

Russell, Rodgers and Watson have made it clear they want more than to just express themselves, they want control in management/coaching decisions. 

Not interested in any of them for that reason alone.

Also, no successful QB on the backside of his career wants to spend his Sunday afternoons running for his life on an historically dysfunctional team like the Panthers.  They want a soft landing spot like Brady and Stafford received.

Precisely. Why make it a struggle to win?

Brady made his team a contender immediately, as did Stafford.

Tampa was essentially a Tom Brady away from contending for a championship.

Carolina, not so much.

With Tom came Gronk and others. There isn't anybody here guys are looking to come play with. No star. The closest thing we had was disrespected and kicked out the door hastily.

Russell played at NC State but the dude is married to a celebrity and now wants to be a celebrity. He’s not coming here to Carolina. Seattle has a better head coach, OL and organization than Carolina. If Carr wasn’t playing so well right now, Russell would probably be a Raider next year.

I think our team is as good if not better than the Bucs pre-Tom Brady if we could fix the OL. Tamp’s front seven is elite but secondary is average at best. Tampa also used a high pick and hit pay dirt on Wirfs.  If we have a franchise QB, Terrace Marshall wouldn’t be a ghost like he has this season.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
