but I could definitely see them cooling significantly on feeling the need to swing a massive trade for Watson given the second half of their season.

Actually I think a likely landing spot for watson is with the steelers.  with rapelisberger retiring they can trade one sexual offender for another and keep their fans very happy.

Why would an established player come to a franchise with a coach on his last legs ?  If Rhule gets fired the next year it's an entirely new coaching staff that may or may not want Watson.  So no way he comes here at this point.  

I think his options may prove to be extremely limited until his significant off field troubles are cleared up. It seemed like it was basically just us and Miami left and Miami very well may be out now given their turnaround. It could be Carolina or nothing. Would Tepper really be willing to push ALL of his chips on the table to go all in on Watson/Rhule? Because, damn... if you swing a massive trade for Watson and it doesn't end well this franchise would be truly gutted at that point.

I can't see a smart franchise making that trade until there's a LOT more clarity to his "situation".

I could definitely see that being attractive to Watson.  Stable organization.  Great coach.  Solid D.  Good rushing support.  

Lot's of plusses for Watson to head to Pittsburgh.  He could succeed there immediately. 

Now whether Pittsburgh is up for that, who knows ?

I just can't see Watson waiving his no trade clause to come here. If he wasn't willing to do it before Rhule proved to be an unmitigated disaster, I don't see why he's be willing to do it after.

It could well be the case that Carolina and a Rhule in desperation mode MIGHT be the only NFL landing field willing to give him clearance.

Funny, I was just talking about that this morning.61954014-3B36-4325-93AF-E2E099D2095A.thumb.jpeg.6a9a1e5354c6d04aa686a61ec677a981.jpeg

Buyout his contract and or pay him that year and move on 

make the usual, better for Matt and better for the Panthers’ statements 

I mean this is a guy taking his offer to the giants for more money. 

If he is the hot commodity he thinks he is, well, he will have a job in no time

      Watching games this year again and Bryce missed a wide open XL many times and some of them were in the endzone. I get the kid has mental lapses and hasn't broke out yet, but this is year three on a rookie deal! Cutting bait now is too early. If he hasn't gained anymore trust from his QB, posted any highlights, little production, or outright gets beat out then we can talk movement.

      Samesies   I truly may just cash completely out of Panther football if we give him a long term deal that isnt necessary.  I have watched NFL for 50 years now and I can without a shadow of a doubt say you cannot win consistently with BY.  Way too many limitations to deal with.   I may come back around in 3 years when the inevitable happens and all parties are either cut and/or fired.  Giving him a deal before this season so you hopefully can get him cheaper in case he "blows up" or if you truly believe that he will has to be the most moronic decision a gm can make when the evidence is laid before you with different players

      This is the one! I was at that game and all KB had to do was lay down on the corner after the pick or make an obvious tag while he was down. He had already ran a lazy route. Then if Cam would've just walked to the sideline like most elite QBs instead of trying to make the tackle.  A lot of people bring up the TJ Watt hit, but he just reaggravated a bunch of scar tissue from that play. And every Cam hater said that the running did him in and it was a dive tackle attempt on an interception that initially began the shoulder deterioration. He still went to New England later and would've got them in the playoffs had their A team not sat out the covid year. We quit on him too early. But hey how good was Teddy? Am I right?
