He's doing it because the Texans lied to him. If you had a little perspective, then you'd understand the backstory.

The "hurr durr Watson asking out and is a sex predator" crowd is so tiring

I've followed it from the get go and was completely for trading the farm for him before the allegations came out. Don't sit here and act like our organization is some bastion of honesty, you and I both know its a complete poo show and has been for years. Try having "a little perspective".

Even removing the ethics from the equation, I just can't get behind trading the farm for a dude who 

 

1. Doesn't want to be here

2. Has already shown he has no problem forcing his way off a team

3. Will in all likelihood be a 3 year rental

 

 

Imagine us trading the farm and him leaving for ATL in 3 years. I could absolutely see it.

How do you know he doesn't want to be here would he have met w us....wouldn't he have vetoed us already

 

Or are you just in the land of make believe

yep, adding Watson is risky for so many reasons.  Considering the cost. 

QBs left and right sign deals now and turn around and demand out.  That trend will keep growing.  Makes it harder and harder to give up 3 and 4 1st round picks for one....unless you are going to insert him into a Super Bowl ready roster for an immeidate run/window.  Which we aren't that team.

Not sure where to put this but just realized, after seeing the Panthers last season, seeing how Cam was absolutely railroaded and thrown under the bus publicly by the disheveled college coach we have for a head coach, it’s no wonder Watson lumped Carolina into the same category as the Browns and said hell no.

I don’t care if we are Deshaun’s or anyone else’s “favorite” or not. It’s business. He just has to be willing to come. No one drafted and most times free agency get to go to their favorite team. Just a team available they are willing to go to. I’m sure Cam’s favorite team would’ve been Atlanta too, but it doesn’t work like that.

For those who think we’d give up too much to get him, that’s laughable. If you don’t want him because of his problems, cool. But there is a reason most teams are willing to pay that price for a Top 5 QB talent. It’s definitely worth it. We’re worried about losing talented guys at other positions and picks when the QB position is the only one that literally covers over shortcomings other areas. Joe Burrow covers over the fact the OL sucked in Cincy. The mistake people make is thinking that the QB will cover over incompetence in the front office. It will not. You need that competence to improve the shortcomings WHILE you have the top guy. That’s where Houston sucked. A known Top 5 entity at 26 years old at the QB position in football is about the biggest no-brainer there is. We’ll waste five picks trying to find a guy who isn’t that. And the players we lose would be replaced in the draft or in FA with guys who want to play for a Top 5 QB who gives them a chance to win.

Our problem is we have yet to get past the lack of competence in our front office. We’ve let inept hires hire more inept hires and we’ve layered our suckitude. Even if we feel building a team is better, you have to trust the folks you put in charge of that.

For the people in the back!

Watson is waiting on Atlanta to see if they can trade Matt Ryan somewhere. Probably to the Colts. 

If Atlanta is out, Panthers DO stand a chance if it’s just them and the Saints. Might be a bidding war. Best case scenario if they don’t land Watson is the Saints end up having to pay more for him. 

If he doesn’t want to come here then what’s the point?

We are literally the only team whos had an offer on the table, been interested from the get go, and hasn't had to make any roster/cap moves to accommodate him. Beyond that- he actually REACHED OUT to ATL after meeting with us, a divisional rival and his childhood team growing up. If he wanted to be here the decision would've been made days ago. He's hedging his bets and we're his last resort. I think that much is pretty obvious

There are some people in this thread (all four parts of it) who probably, in school, found out they weren't someone's absolute best friend then punched that person in the face and started yelling 'why do you hate me?!?!'.

Christ guys.

      Preseason Week 3 - vs. Pittsburgh (practice tweets, discussion, etc)

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      They had best show out in Week 1 there are zero,I mean zero,  excuses for that offense  defense, haven’t play together yet and they still have Mr Soft and Predictable as DC  I expect break downs at times  …but that offense returns all starters except Tremble and both Mayes and Brady are veterans and can play LG and know the system not up for any participation awards this season they can save that practice energy for Jacksonville.     I’m sick of the, winning,  or looking competitive, when it doesn’t matter.

      There are some tough decisions that I'm eager to see the results of... Does Blackshear sneak on to the roster as RB4? Does the team go with 4 TEs or just 3 again? And has Mitchell Evans done enough to defend his roster spot from James Mitchell? Who is WR6 and is there a WR7? TMac, XL, Coker, and AT seem to be locks imo and I'm assuming Renfrow also makes it due to all of the camp praise. Who makes it between Brycen Tremayne, Jimmy Horn Jr, and David Moore? If the team goes with 7 WRs, which one of those three doesn't make it? Jacolby George and Emani Bailey both have not gotten a lot of game time. Could the Panthers be trying to hide them so that they can be stashed on the PS? Do they go with 10 OL instead of 9? Who makes it out of Walton, Carter, and Kingston? DL locks are DB, BB3, ARob, and Turk. That leaves Jaden Crumedy, Cam Jackson, Sam Roberts, Shy Tuttle, and LaBryan Ray all competing for the final 1 - 3 spots. Does DJ Johnson get IR'd and Thomas Incoom make the roster as EDGE5? What in the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck is going to happen at LB? Only locks are Wallace, Rozeboom, and Cherelus (Wallace has mentioned in media how Cherelus has been big bro for him on the team) seem to be locks. Rhattigan had some good moments against Houston, Martin-Scott is an SC guy, Krys Barnes has popped on defense and on special teams, and Windmon got time starting for the team last season. Are two of those guys going to make it or are the Panthers poaching from another team's cuts? CB5... who is it? Do they go with the 4 expected safeties or bring in a 5th? Has Ransom done enough to take the start from Nick Scott?

      I had this discussion with my buddy yesterday afternoon. If we start this season very slow(especially with the schedule being what it is) and then "rally" in the second half to get to 4-7 wins, I am already gonna be pretty heated at the staff overall. I know we are a very bad roster but I am not gonna keep excusing these slow season starts WITH late season rallies. That's a coaching staff problem, IMO. It's more excusable to just stink gate to gate, IMO. At least you can understand why.
