I am not a Matt Rhule fan and want him out like everyone, but, if it was Matt’s fault for being here I don’t believe we would have even been allowed to sit down with DW. He told Philly no, twice, No meeting at all.

Agreed. 

Stafford, yes. He straight up gave the Panthers the middle finger.

No idea if Wilson was ever really in play for the Panthers but I'm sure they inquired about him.

Plain and simple, Watson didn't come to the Panthers because it wasn't the best situation to rehabilitate his brand and image. The fact he's going to the Falcons, who have easily the worst overall roster in the NFC South, shows he's not really concerned about winning, at least in the short term.

Matt Rhule isn't fit to be an NFL coach and I have been as critical of him as anyone here since the moment he was hired. But I don't think Watson didn't choose the Panthers because of Rhule.

And I hate to look like a sore loser

but afterall that guy has been through, to be so caught up in market and nightlife, etc

well I’d be a pinch concerned.

I was literally in the process of editing this when it timed me out and told me I couldn’t edit it.

What a dumb feature.

So do you. But you don’t see me cry about it every post. Get lost. 

At least he isn't pooing posts bc he is being criticized for posting hilarious takes about Darnold being a good quarterback next season. You are all the way deranged fella 😂

The Watson one stings the most. The Rams were a team that were a legit QB away from being contenders and they proved it. The Broncos are in the toughest division in football but they also look to have a roster ready to compete with a legit QB.

The Saints and Falcons though? Hell, they're not in any better shape in terms of roster than we are. Watson simply looked at those organizations and felt more confident in them being able to build a team around him. Ouch.

I did see if Ryan is moved they have a ton of cap next year, I know they won’t have the capital for top draft talent but I’m sure they will look to surround him with play makers like the Rams roster.

Would you trust Rhule and a lower tier outcast of college coaches to build around you? Or better yet when has the Carolina Panthers ever shown it was willing to build around their Franchise Qb? Deshaun made the right choice imo as sad as that is.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
