9 sacks in 17 games and trash against the run, how he made the pro bowl I have no idea. He's got a ton of potential still as a pass rusher but if he can be the centerpiece in a trade for an MVP caliber QB you trade him in a heartbeat.

I mean, worst-case scenario you give up the No. 1 overall pick for a QB who won't be cleared to play.

Best-case scenario, you give up your best offensive and defensive player for a QB who gets sacked and destroys his knee in Week 2.

Didnt Tom Brady just do this? Saved the coach's career as well. 

Bucs broke a ton of records (not good ones) the year before Brady came. They went out and got o-line talent and Brady in the same offseason. Arians went from all but fired, to a super bowl winning coach.....

The Bucs were at least competitive even with Jameis. I don't even like Arians but he is a hall of fame coach compared to our current staff. It was so bad even Teddy Bridgewater correctly called them out.

I'm not sure I buy this conclusion.

Stephen Ross was reported to have wanted Watson pretty badly, but insisted on him getting his lawsuits settled. The trade fell through when four of his accusers declined to do so.

I'm not sure firing Brian Flores changes how Ross feels.

It doesn’t make sense anyway. Why would Flores want him to the degree of getting fired over it.

Speaking of...

I wasn't necessarily a huge fan of Brian Flores prior to this year, and definitely not at the start of this season when they went 1-7, but good grief the man coached his ass off to close out this season and make the team competitive again.

Is that not something worth a little loyalty?

I don't think you are giving enough credit to how close the Bucs were to being a good team before Brady got there...and how much Mr. Crablegs had to do with the fact that they didn't make the playoffs.

Brady made a brilliant move because he went to a team that was perceived to be worse than it really was.  And they were a QB away from competing.

I looked on the PSL resale site and it's a ton of listings. Dark days

 Listings for seats/PSL's available for sale are actually lower than 2-months ago.

date/#listings/#seats

Novy 7 > 640 > 1,625

Novy 9 > 648 > 1,646  (peak, Cam signed)

Dec 6 > 617 > 1,529

Dec 28 > 597 > 1,468  (floor 1, Rhule retained)

Dec 29 > 609 > 1,501

Jan 3 > 593 > 1,451  (floor 2)  

Jan 4 > 626 > 1,542  (BIG* jump, Gone Guys?)

Jan 7 > 632 > 1,557  (2022 peak 2)

Jan 10 > 624 > 1,533 

For perspective, a 2014 Axios article cited 1,700 PSL-seats available and a 2015 article by the same folks cited 2,300 PSL-seats available.

Conclusion:  Despite all the carping and gnashing of teeth by the Gone Guys, there is nothing in the PSL marketplace to indicate any sort of behavioral sea-change by PSL holders who are the bedrock of the Panthers business plan.

*seems likely the big jump is a corporate customer of some sort dumping a large block of seats.

      Monday practice tweets

      I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).

      Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.

      Austin named starting center

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
