We're not winning the super bowl next year.. And I promise we weren't going to even with Watson..

Clearly. But not the point. He would get us excited at least, but that's not happening now and I'm not sure the fan base will care.

Sheena is starting to rub me the wrong way. She's a panthers reporter but every tweet seems to be happy that deshaun isn't choosing us

Sheena is very impartial. She doesnt have a side. She's the best insider Panther fans have right now.

If the Falcons can't make it work, he comes to the Panthers. I think he went back to NO because something just wasn't right. So he was giving them one more chance before he makes his decision. It's FALCONS or PANTHERS, IMHO!

Na, the Owner met with him.

the only way I see ATL getting him is if they deal Ryan first and I don't think any team will want to deal with his cap situation

  • If you are Indy, you are low balling the hell out of the Falcons today for Ryan--taking the salary for no picks.

Good Lord, back out of the deal. Use the 30 million we have to sign 2-3 good players and take a day 1 starter at # 6 or trade down and take Lloyd/Dean/Linderbaum/Penning. I'm over him at this point. I know everyone says we suck but I really think we could be just 4-5 players from a playoff spot. Can go get 3-4 of them and keep improving.

And, This deal is going to hamstring NO or ATL for the next few years. W Brady on the way out, this could be a blessing in disguise… if we can find a QB, that is.

Falcons are stuck with Matt Ryan if they can't find a trade partner in like 4 hours. $8M roster bonus kicks in soon. 

Like I've said all along, Atlanta is Watson's #1 choice. His people reached out to them after his meetings with the Saints, Panthers, and Browns. 

If they can't make it work, it's down to the Panthers and Saints.

And I think the Panthers have a better shot against the Saints than many expected. But it's still not a great chance because I think Atlanta will leave no stone unturned to make this work.

Watson would fill their stadium.

As a new owner, Tepper made some critical errors - 1) he did not hire a seasoned GM right away to navigate the NFL waters, 2) he hired a college coach without a lot of professional ties to be the HC, who 3) hired a college OC and DC without the pro pedigree either. We are an NFL franchise run by college guys. And outside of Brady’s Burrow stint, not even prominent college guys. 

Not only does the league probably not respect us, I know our connections and contacts must suck. And when you do that you MUST be successful on the field. You can’t give years and hope they figure it out. And you certainly can’t show up to court a Top 5 QB and think you’re gonna land him, even if you are holding the biggest bag. I’m sure Watson’s folks did their research and were like, “they don’t have real football people in place for us to be successful. Cam probably told them as much.

”You ain’t gotta get ready if you stay ready.” We showed up to the dance not ready EVEN AFTER a year. Still not ready. That’s unforgivable.

Yep

Straight up. Colts could get a great deal. But Atlanta might want assets they could turn around and send to Houston.

      I think Indiana will win it all but Miami should give them a much better fight than Oregon did.

      If you need some ‘chills’ to start your Friday….

      When I tell people I was at that game, they usually say oh that’s so cool you had the experience. I call it soul crushing. Why? The weeks and months leading up to it were great, the team was fun to watch every week…some weeks the offense was unstoppable and carried the team (saints and giants road games), other times the defense carried the load (jaguars, tampa). Lots of back and forth games against good teams (Seattle and Indy). Good young players on the team, but the veteran leadership was incredible…from Cam, Olsen, Kalil and J Stew to Luke, TD, Norman, Tillman, Jared Allen, CJ. Role players like Fozzy Whitaker, Cotchery (he caught that MFer), Philly brown, Kyle love, AJ Klein, and so on.  The Friday before the nfc championship my wife and I after a few drinks said let’s see what prices look like for flights/accommodations and we got to talking about how much prices would increase if we waited until we found out if we would be in the big game. We said screw it, we are only out $200 if we have to cancel.  Of course we come out and just pulverized the cardinals in front of the most raucous crowd by far we’ve ever had. We had no idea what we would do for game tickets and then found out a neighbor who worked for the team could get us 2 for face value (each employee got two of their own for free, something cool that JR did).  But then the NFL mafia decided that the storyline of manning going out on top like Elway would give them more goodwill than a non traditional QB who didn’t connect with their target demo and the rest is history. I never have and never will watch that game again. I am just hoping I can see them win one in the 2nd half of my life.
