I don't know what is worse, simping for an accused sexual predator for over a year or being such a dumpster fire of a team that you are rejected by that accused sexual predator

The funny thing is I’m not sure by “accused sexual predator” you’re talking about Deshaun Watson or Jerry Richardson. There has been a lot of simping for both of them lately.

This place used to feel like good seats at a Panthers game, where you could talk/complain about the team with like minded fans, and poo talk with opposing ones without any fistfights. 

Lately it feels like the game where you get stuck in front of some sunburnt hick who won't stop screaming about how terrible the team is and how he's never coming to another game. 

I remember higher spirits when fuging Randy Fasani was our starting QB for like 5 seconds. The immediate and constant gratification crowd has taken this place over and is taking huge shits everywhere.

I would respect David Tepper a lot more if the Panthers were never involved in the Watson sweepstakes. 

How hard he went for Watson and how poorly he did it is going to stick with me a long time. 

The fact he even did chase Watson just tells me that removing the JR stature was more about making room for himself then what it should have stood for.

He removed the statue at such an opportune moment after the George Floyd protests. He saw a chance and took advantage

With all of Jerry Richardson's issues, he knew how to run a football club. Around the league, the Panthers had one of the best lockerrooms in the league.

I’m sure Deshaun Watson would be tripping over himself rushing to play for Jerry Richardson, the guy who reportedly directed a racial slur at one of his African-American scouts.

He was also doing all the simple things that fans wanted that only raised the value of his team while pumping up the fanbase: putting the Team logo at the 50, removing the statue of the racist harasser and building a team facilities with real-estate development attached.

Complaining about complaining is also complaining.

    • I was watching a YouTube and it was said that scout and GM insider types were saying the NIL had killed rounds 4-7. I don’t know that I buy it, seems like it might for a year or maybe two but then those guys have to move on.  NCAA is apparently about to give 5 years of eligibility. It is gonna skew those entrants older maybe.   
    • Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that. 
    • I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
