Wondering if anyone has heard anything between the Panthers (TSE) and Rock hill/York County since the vote and proposal. TSE fund the whole project in exchange of tax credit which the council says would look life their paying the Panthers back. IMO I would hope David Tepper would accept the offer and get the project up and running again and back to set deadline. If something looks like it's going array after accepting the offer then take the council back to the bargaining table. JMO

I honestly try to tune it out. If I didn't I couldn't be an NFL fan. There's nothing enjoyable about watching billionaires fleece tax payers out of millions.

I get what you are saying - but ED incentives give an entity a “credit” on new investment created, not existing investments.  So taxpayers are not footing the bill for anything.  In fact, incentives that help drive public infrastructure improvements does quite the opposite by reducing the burden on taxpayers who otherwise would pay more in taxes to fund those improvements.

Subject A: passionate, dedicated fanbase and a franchise that has loads of recent success + a very bright future

Subject B: the panthers

The Bills have earned a passionate fanbase.

Likewise, the Panthers have earned the fanbase they have.

"The Bills have earned a passionate fanbase."...which most have moved to North Carolina.

Don’t expect Tepper to sent a different precedent. The NFL won’t let him pay for it himself even if he was willing to do it.

Well, I'd say a guy who's know to stick others with lunch and dinner checks might not be up to paying for a stadium himself anyway 😐

As it goes to a new stadium Tepper has no say in the matter...

...assuming (dolts on) the Charloot City Council and the Governor of NC do their job...

...how are you voters feeling about these elected officials?

In case you don't remember Gov. Pat McCrory Just Said No to Jerry R. when ran his stadium-upgrade-funding conjob but Charloot City Council didn't have the balls to do the same 🤦‍♂️

    • Also hit the over.  Banking on Man City running up the score and Leeds getting a lucky strike.   
    • Tailed you.  Also Free Play, which is why the risk shows $0.00. Let me look at hoops and get back to you.  Always fade Hubert, haha. 
    • Hard to say right now, but good thinking.  I look at this as the info we need for free agency.  Looks like we are going to free up about $10m so far; watch to see if any contracts (Moehrig, Horn, Brown, etc) are reworked the first week of March.  Then after free agency, we will have a pretty good idea. Right now, to be fair to your question because I am sure you are aware of its timing: In free agency, I see us adding an OT of some sort and drafting one at some point.  It all depends on how they view Ickey, Nijman, and maybe BC.  That OT could be Nijman.  I do not see the future OT--just a stop gap. I see the Panthers signing a free-agent center.  I think the market is strong.  I see Fortner from the Saints as a prime candidate and his salary is estimated at $6m by Spotrac.  the Saints are $42m over the cap, so I doubt they are able to re-sign many of their own.  He will be 28.  I also expect them to re-sign Corbett (depth) at a vet min ($1.5m) deal. I also see free agency as a strong area to get a free safety who can play and is under age 30.  Hawkins, Cook, and Bryant are all around age 27-28, play at a high level, and should be had for about $15m per. EDGE: Arnold Ebiketie is a good value because he gets pressure at a high percentage.  He had 2 sacks and Atlanta just drafted 2 pass rushers last year.   He has a 70+ PFF rating and will (Spotrac) demand about $9m.  While he is not the answer, he is a great third down option with Princely and he would allow for Jones, Scourton, and Princely to develop.
