They'll have the spin machine out in full force, no doubt. Gonna be hard to spin this poo, but they'll try and several homers with rose colored glasses will buy it and preach it, looking down their noses at all the "fake fans" who criticize the team. 

I'm just interested to see what that spin will be.

The only viable option I can see is claiming the asking price got too high. No one should buy it but that's the only plausible spin I can think of here.

If they dont draft a LT at 6 I may just lose my mind.  Drafting a qb at 6 just to have on your roster is pure insanity

It’s coming.  Everybody screaming for Mr. Small school.  And they’re gonna get it.  
 

I hope they do.

If you're on the ledge over drafting a quarterback you may as well throw in the towel now. It's gonna happen this is a poverty franchise we are not going to lure an elite QB here. We're likely going to draft 2 QB's in the next 4-5 years unless we magically hit big on the first which anyone who has seen enough teams struggle knows is unlikely.

Yeah. Can't wait to see sizzle talk about how tepper and rhule can do no wrong

So I guess next step is finding an unhappy franchise QB whos either desperate enough to leave whatever situation hes in, or has low enough self esteem to actually accept a spot on the Panthers.  Looks like the word is out in the QB community that Carolina is not the place you want to be right now.  Can't say that I blame anybody for not wanting to hitch their wagon to this fuging clown show.

Yep. This is the best path forward. Trading for a mid tier QB just to win 6-7 games is pointless. Suck and draft high.

maybe Stephen Ross can offer some pointers on how to do that...

Oh it’s easy. Hire Rhule and McAdoo and trade for Sam Darnold.

Can't read the article, but would be no surprise. Why would Mariota/Jimmy G/whoever feel different than these guys? They also offered Cam already according to PNP and he's out talking to Seattle. They have no choice but to draft a guy eventually

It was never going to happen. It's no shocker. My son asked me last week, "Why would Watson go to the Panthers?" I could never give him an answer. And, honestly, unless we were the only ones, he'd have been a fool to choose us.

Great news !

fug Watson. He's overrated and he's legal problems are not going away. Whoever gets him is going to greatly regret it.

Nah, he isn't overrated.  He is absolutely a top 10 QB at 26 years old.  And maybe even Top 5.   

 

Part 2 and 3, maybe.   

[Fox007]

LOL yeah he goes to whichever one and they dominate the division for the forseable future. What a great owner we have. What a great HC we have. What a great organization we have. What a great team we have.

pahahahahah
