Who would've thought a year ago that Russell Wilson would be a potential huge negative in terms of luring in their next head coach? The guy just looked THAT bad this year and you're tied to him for a couple more years due to that contract.

I know that I'm shocked to see Rivera playing bad vets over promising rookies. Very out of character.

I'd love to know the thought process that went into that decision.

It's probably a lot like the one that resulted in someone paying Pauly Shore a lot of money to star in movies 😕

I'm not surprised. When you trade all of that and hand out that contract you're clearly all in.

If he doesn't jerk his head out of his ass this is going down as the worst single roster move in NFL history. It's not just a huge bust of a trade or a huge bust of a massive signing. It's basically both all in one fell swoop.

I remember a while back someone tweeting about how Tom Brady almost got his team to the Super Bowl and agreed to take less money to help shore up other positions while Russell Wilson didn't even make it out of the first round of the playoffs and was asking to have input on the Seahawks draft.

Wilson seems to be one of the least self-aware people in existence. I can only imagine what the Seahawks had to put up with while he was still winning.

He’s the kind of teammate who motivates his teammates by telling them they can be as great as him one day.

With all the drama we have had this year I am still counting my blessings as a Panther fan. We are not tethered to a monstrous contract with Deshaun Watson or Russel Wilson for years. Frankly, even though it is still to be determined, I would rather have Darnold next year than either of them.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I personally think you are trying to talk yourself into circles here... It's ok to say Bryce played incredible the last 5 weeks... I know there are plenty of people on this board who desperately need the doom-and-gloom narrative, but I genuinely question how much NFL QB play some of these people really have watched when they still question him being the unquestioned starter for next year...  Again, that being said, no one is crowning him at all. I think Bryce is one of the best stories going into 2025 bc his season last year was so outlandishly unprecedented. It's totally fair to personally not believe in Bryce. Plenty of sports "journalists" need to write stories, and that's an easy narrative path... But I think that actual people in the know rank Bryce much higher. That's the fun thing about sports... we shall see!

      Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.

      Not really, the only QB's (other than Anthony Richardson) ranked below him are new to their teams as a placeholder starter or drafted in 2024 or 2025, not a lot of gymnastics to get there. It's not about how many that is, if it's 20, 12, or 2... It means there isn't a QB who's team has committed to them for the long term right now that they have ranked below Bryce. That's not a great thing.
