I am beyond disbelief on how many people here responded to Dan Morgan's original post.

Agree with him or not, the responses from some of the people on here are both an embarassment to the poster and to the rest of us that frequent this site.

Well to be fair, as much of an honor as it is to have a real Panther on the board, I think he should still be open to the same scrutiny and frankness the rest of us enjoy. He's a big guy, and as a professional athlete I'm sure he's heard his share of heckling; I think he can take some ribbing from a bunch of fans on the computer.

My point being, be respectful, but don't tip-toe around the guy because he's a real player. It's insincere, sycophantic pandering. If he were any other poster, he would have been flamed and neg-repped into oblivion for suggesting signing Vick.

Of course more stock should be put into his opinion because he has seen more time on the grid-iron than the rest of us combined, but he deserves honest opinions and polite disagreement.

lol. if you don't want to look like an asshat don't be one or do asshat things.

Let's not do this. I made an honest mistake; I called someone a troll who clearly was not, and could be empirically proven so, and I apologized for it.

And if we are defining "doing ass hat things" as calling someone who starts a "Sign Vick" thread a troll, then how many of us are guilty of it? I'd wager that you are as well.

Definitely should give Vick a chance. Vick, Smith, Dwill, JStew....... That's a scary fast offense. If Vick gets back to full form we would be dangerous. He might not be the most accurate qb but when has any of our Qb's been accurate? Smith will go get the ball.

In Captroop's defense, he's right that if this were anybody else we would be laying into him right now. If anything, you've got to respect Captroop for not brownnosing Dan as many of the other posters here do. There's a big difference between showing Dan respect and just being his "yes man."

In fact, the latter, I think, is even more disrespectful to him.

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
