CB market... 

 

This was one FA CB that I wanted to kick the tires on. Will have to see final numbers, but $6M is too rich for my blood. 

Thought he could be a good #3 and step in to a #2 boundary role in a pinch. As long as he wasn't depended upon for CB1 or constant CB2 burn, could've been a solid vet addition.

Yeah the market is super thin, not a great year for us to need FA help. Any camp cuts from other teams will probably be sideways moves from Keith Taylor/CJ etc

I honestly can't remember any talk of him being crazy before that.

One of my neighbors as a kid was in a car wreck and had a pretty severe concussion. He was never the same afterwards. He ended up with all kinds of personality problems. TBIs are no joke and Burflict should have been tossed from the NFL immediately.

Yeah, a good buddy of mine in HS was wild and crazy as hell but good as gold. Like a wild man who'd do anything on a dare but had a good heart. Anyway, I got a call when I was a sophomore in college that Danny had been in a car wreck. Well, no poo. That's like a weekly occurrence. No, this one's bad. He'd gone airborne and snapped a telephone pole on half basically with his skull. He survived but he just wasn't the same person. Probably cost him 30 IQ points and he had minimal control over his emotions. He had a hair trigger temper that just didn't exist prior to the accident. He didn't have a mean bone in his body before that.

Take that and add millions of dollars and you get the current version of Antonio Brown.

    • 4610 total yards 27 total touchdowns 8 yards per attempt. Completion percentage was usual Cam ie mediocre or below at best at 57.7 and 86.2 passer rating. But the man scored points and moved the ball at will often. Compared to 2652 total yards 21 total touchdowns 6.3 yards per attempt completion % 60.9 82.2 passer rating. Let's just not do things like this. We can acknowledge Bryce improved (from realistically a bottom 5 QB) and hope he can work his way within the top 15 this season without dragging Cam Newton into it and unintentionally diminishing him. That's all I got to say. Carry on.
    • 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.
