Straight up Yes or No: Do you want the Panthers to Trade for Deshaun Watson? If we do, will you still be a fan?

[DaveThePanther2008]

It will be interesting to see how many of you that don't want him, leave the team and cheer someone else.

I won't be surprised if something happens this weekend after his court on Friday.

I'll quit following the team if a trade is made for Watson, but I won't cheer another NFL team. The Panthers are the only NFL team I watch now. If I give up on them, I'm done with the NFL altogether. College will satisfy any football cravings I have easily enough.

It all depends on how this is resolved and when/if we decide to trade for him. I won't cheer for another team. At least for now Rhule isn't at Michigan so I can still enjoy college football.

I went several years just enjoying the game of football without having a favorite team.

It wouldn't be hard to do that again.

Hell, it's actually less stressful.

I always wish we could see a study done between the people who don’t want Watson because of potential sexual misconduct compared to people who vote for politicians with past/ open sexual misconduct cases. Since I know the latter is high, especially in North Carolina where the bulk of our fanbase is, I’d be pretty confident in assuming the vast majority of those people who pretend to not want Watson would be back relatively quickly if they “left” the fandom. 
 

 

 

edit: and no, I genuinely don’t care about your political preference. I just think the Pearl clutching is interesting given how people view similar cases in other facets of their day to day life

I'd hope most people would hold their favorite QB and elected officials to different standards but this is America...

For the record, I don't think we'll get him. We're snakebit at the qb position save for Cam. He's not going to want to come play for a loser like Rhule

My interest in football over the last decade has dwindled down watching Panthers games and the SB. This past season is the only playoff series where I've watched most of the games.

love football but not so much I'll cheer for someone I don't respect as a person

No, I don't want to trade for him. I wasn't a fan of how much poo Houston was wanting for him even before the allegations came out and they seem to still want to try and get that much even now.

Having said all this, if the team does trade for him, I wouldn't like having Watson at QB (Unless he gets cleared of each and every allegation against him which given the amount of them likely isn't going to happen) but I'd still like to see the rest of the team succeed. I am a guy that likes to give 2nd chances but Watson's case is a tough one to do that with. He'd have to do a TON of work off the field and even then it'd be difficulty to build back trust.

You’re telling me a handsome dude had to force himself on thirsty Instagram hoes? It’s a trap. Innocent. 

[Swaggasaurus]

Don’t want to trade for him. Will still be a fan if we did. I feel like these chicks jerked him off for money, consensually. I feel like he just has a thing for getting hj’s from strangers. That’s all good man.
 

But if he actually forced anyone to do something I do not want him here.
