Bro what are you even doing here....you don't like the Panthers, you don't like the NFL.....time to let it all go. 

I am a Panther fan until the second they make this trade.  I've been here much longer than you so take a seat.

How do you f*ck something that’s already f*cked up? Watson’s legal issues aside, a franchise QB gives you a chance. We have nothing until that position is filled. 

You f*ck up the chance of fixing the f*ck up by trading away assets that could dig you out of the hole you're in.

We don’t decide “innocent.” We decide guilty or not guilty. Liable or not liable.

I honestly believe it doesn’t matter either way because he’s going to be playing like an elite QB for somebody. Might as well be Carolina. 

Do you demand that your mailman be unimpeachable morally? Do you do a background check on your grocery store cashier? Do you demand the legal history of the front desk worker at a hotel?

Why do you feel you need to make moral judgments about football players who have zero impact on your life if you don’t do it for everyone else you interact with on a daily basis?

It’s funny, the same nancies wailing and gnashing their teeth about Watson are probably the same ones claiming black men are overincarcerated and can’t get a second chance. 

This is the biggest load of logical fallacies I've seen in a while. 

I don't get to choose who delivers my mail, checks me out at the grocery store, or works at a hotel those places of employment do.

I DO get to choose what team I root for, and I DO care about the players that represent that team. 

Like it or not, those individuals are looked up to in the community and have an impact on the surrounding area. Tell some of the under privileged kids in the charlotte area that Cam Newton or Thomas Davis didn't have an impact on their lives. Tell me how kids at Levine's Children's hospital weren't impacted by Greg Olsen and his actions.

And BTW, if I found out that the cashier at the local Publix is a registered sex offender, I would avoid that fuging Publix and go to Harris Teeter.

Not true at all. Since you said an elite QB is absolutely worth any distraction, let's go with a hypothetical.

Let's say team X has an elite white QB. This QB a racist. He gets filmed taking part in a KKK rally or march. The team's corporate sponsors pull all their funding in protest. People, fans and otherwise, protest outside the stadium daily. The rest of the team speaks out against the QB and refuse to play with him. Opposing players speak out and refuse to play against him too.

Is the elite QB worth that baggage?

Hey yal let me give you a very extreme and radical example to prove my point

I neither follow or cheer for any of those teams or players.  The league turns a blind eye to this stuff and it's hypocritical of them to pretend they do. 

Okay, but you still watch the NFL. If you worked for a company that had a co-worker who got sexually assaulted by a guy in another department and they didn’t do anything about it would you brush it off because it was t people in your department?

This trade would probably leave us as the new Texans. An elite QB surrounded by a straight trash team. We'd see multiple 1st and 2nd round picks along with guys like Moore and Burns heading to Houston.

Yeah he took that Texans team to the playoffs several times and our division is pretty bad. Sneak into the playoffs and Rhule keeps his job…

I would not brush it off. If the company knew and ignored it I would be looking for another job.

We’ve had assets the last 4 years. Look how many we had in last years draft alone. It doesn’t matter. Look at the Jets, Commanders, Broncos, etc. They’ve had assets and a very good overall roster. Doesn’t matter without the QB. 
 

Then look at the Bengals.  Not the greatest roster, but they have the QB.

      J Person article on Canales and game plan and Rico

      By strato · Posted

      I think you know. Apparently winning is secondary to Bryce’s development. Same as it has been.     In a way it may be good because we didn’t need to make the playoffs and extend this fuging charade about Bryce being the guy. Better in the long run if he gets enough rope to hang himself with.

      I know DC is overthinking this and he really needs to be OC or HC, but how do you call plays with a QB that in all reality, shouldn't be starting. Bryce is wildly inconsistent. He should lean on Rico and the run game, but if he does and wins, it presents a false narrative that Bryce is better than he is and he's potentially stuck with him for another season. If he doesn't, he looks incompetent as a play caller, but it exposes the ugly side of his QB situation that he really does need a QB that can execute at minimum a basic NFL offense with some decent consistency.  I feel a little sorry for the guy because he was anchored with Young this season and even more weight with Dalton getting a 2 year deal. He has very little to work with at the most important position on his team and it's not his doing. The trade deadline was approaching and it was plainly obvious we needed to do something but we didn't for whatever reason.  I don't think he's a complete bonehead and don't know what he's supposed to do. Win games and potentially keep Bryce or lose them by putting the weight on Bryce's shoulders. Either he succeeds or fails.  As a coach I know you're supposed to play to win the game, but do you win now at the ultimate long term detriment to your team and locker room?
