(*probably fake news*) Panthers turned down a trade offer last night.

Again look at Stars numbers and DB's tell me the difference then show me The "Star is a bust" thread you made??

There is really no argument in the Star versus Brown discussion. Star was a very good run blocker and a very poor pass rusher. Brown is an okay pass rusher and extremely poor run blocker. 

Star performed the function that he was intended to and Brown has absolutely not done that. He has also not only failed to improve but regressed. 

I was a BIG supporter of that draft pick to take Brown but it was a massive mistake. He is not a good player.

Star did his job. He did all the dirty work so Luke and TD could stay free.

Brown gets manhandled by Washington's third string guards

Agreed.  It was noticeable when Star was added.  Brown can't control gaps.  He's stronger as a pass rusher than a run stopper, and he's not a particularly good pass rusher either.

It shouldn't take 3 years for Brown to develop, because his draft profile was the big strong man that was ready to go day 1.  I hope he proves us wrong this year cause its not looking good.

Do you really want to compare trying to make a HOFER and a Pro bowler look good.. To Tahir Whitehead and Jermaine Carter????

Do we need to break down 1 player being flanked by Cj and Greg Hardy??  Do you think that might help a bit??

Yeah, he was supposed to be physically dominant but his technique is unbelievably poor. He has not adjusted to the NFL at all.

It wouldn't help Brown not get abused in one on one's. That happens far too frequently. Believe what you want but I'd suggest looking at the All-22 tape while you do it. It's bad.

Do you think surrounding cast my be the reason??

No Dt is going to make Tahir Whitehead and Jermaine Carter look like Luke kuechly..

It would help when it happened you had Superior run defenders like

Kuechly,  CJ, TD, Greg Hardy even James Anderson around you wouldn't it..

No, I don't. You shouldn't need better players around you to avoid getting ridden out of the screen on play after play as opposing RB's run by. 

His faults aren't other players, they are his. He simply has not done the work to be better at his craft. He is trying to just line up and be stronger than the guy in front of him like he was able to in college. Well that doesn't work in the NFL. You have to have proper technique and use that strength effectively. He doesn't have that on a consistent basis.

The fact that he hasn't improved and gotten worse means that the opposition is well aware that he isn't improving as a player and that is why he gets abused so frequently. It's quite literally on the tape.

We seriously have people ready to label a guy a flat out bust after a promising rookie season and a sophomore slump on a terrible team?

This is incredible.. Ppl could watch games and see we had sub par MLB and the team can say we need to get bigger on the edge because that where teams were attacking us ..

And Blame the DT..

Smh

    • It is all confusing and layered. SB is the cash you get very soon within weeks or in simple terms, its what you get to sign the paper work. Players and agents can agree on contract but what to "wait" to sign......teams don't like that cause you can "Carlos Boozer" yourself. In order to get that ink dry, while keeping the contract the same, portion it as a bonus to "sign" and get the funds with ________ .   * But Ive seen worded contracts that split the SB or a 20% to a later date. The beans counters can fill in the details about why certain dates are better and save the team money.. Theres tricks to the trade and accounting is full of them.    Ugh another big layer, is SB can be used to manipulate cap and players. Ill try to give a example that makes enough sense. Believe it or not having a owner like Tepper is a cheat code for this. He has cash in hand, where as Mark Davis had problem making pay roll and had to move the team to Vegas....... Tepper can give you 100,000,000 SB right now and the team can spread out the cap hit. Another owner doesn't have or want to give the player 100,000,000 in cash, but offered the same guaranteed contract in roster bonuses fully guaranteed over the next few years........ Which one do you want??? Everyone wants the money now, not before another inflation waves hits in 2 years. So it does 'pay" to have a owner like tepper that's able to have real cash on hand, while it also works GREAT for cap help. Heres a good video, if you can stand coked up pat and mask look-a-like AJ    
    • I don't know. CMC is like others and may have lip serviced that line of " I had no plan or wanted to leave Carolina" I think he even said he bought a house too and wanted this to be home.   Here's what I heard- In a way Panthers org gave him a test and he didn't "fight" back. They approached CMC and told him they wanted to put him on IR since the "season" was over or out of playoff reach. CMC didn't fight it one lick and agreed. They secretly wanted him to kept playing or want to, but there was no kickback. I honestly don't know if its real or not, 5th hand information type deal doing on. Yes he had bruises and pains, but was able to play...... but went along with Panthers staff. Odd to be playing games with star players, but whatever....   Plus the staff doctors found out about his tendinitis and there was nothing to fix it. Even with him missing time, it was the best move to trade him before he got inflamed constantly.    Lastly, its mostly time a combo of stuff, Fitterererere did not sign him to be the highest paid RB. That was classic Marty "give me a" herniay doing. GMs have different values on roster spots and rumor was Fitterererer was one that didn't want to pay RBs. For all his faults, he's right about that......
