Look, I know everyone laughed at theinkisdry, but he did say decision was  Friday and he did say our offer will surprise you, like maybe it isn’t 5-7 assets like they wanted. Again, not saying he’s right but it’s possible at this point.

Unless Watson having a hand in the next coach means a ton and they will just fire Rhule during or right after the season. 

Yeah I was thinking so too but I’d feel sorry for the hires we’ve e made if they get canned a month after getting signed

Cam is most likely not coming back to the Panthers. But he like many other FA QBs is waiting to see what happens with Watson. Then the dominos will fall. Honestly Cam’s market might actually be better last off-season. I think Cleveland would be a great fit for him with that run first offense.

For sure, him and Chubb🔥🔥

getting off work

 

 

whats the development? 

Deshaun wants to go to Atlanta. But they can’t afford to trade for him without trading Matt Ryan. And the Falcons pissed off Matt Ryan because they tried to trade him but as far as I know no one wants to take on $48m cap hit for a 37yo pencil necked QB.

Long story short it’s a mess. The storyline is going to start to change tomorrow.

I think from tepper but Rhule is still the issue, people are mad about DW entertaining other teams but after that bs Rhule pulled the last 7 weeks of the season, panthers would be my last choice too

This is true, but I’m sure Tepper has made it clear that if Rhule doesn’t work out then he will be involved in selecting the next coach.

 

Man, honestly, I think for our sakes, we’d want Cam to talk about us to DW. I still believe there’s a love there between him and the panthers

Oh we’d have to have an interim, could bring in a new HC from another team mid season unless it is via trade. Macadoo would interim and then when the league allows you to interview coaches, it would be Flores.

    • Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.
    • What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.
