from ProFootballTalk.com:

"...Crossman has a year left on his deal. But since he's not being back $6.5 million in 2010, the team apparently was willing to pay him not to work. Crossman has been with the Panthers since 2003, coach John Fox's second year on the job. The Panthers struggled this year on special teams, finishing 30th in kickoff coverage, 29th in punt coverage, 30th on kickoff returns, and 17th on punt returns."

and this has nothing to do with being fired? by that i mean was another thread really necessary? same subject(crossman) should mean it goes in the same thread. i can't believe how much of a cluster fug this place gets to be when Zod lets the offseason rule come into play.

No way is that accurate. Not even this dumbassed franchise is that stupid.

Although if this IS true, this should explode the constant theories people have had that people like Fox and Delhomme are going to be retained because of all the money they have due.

But seriously, no way is that number accurate. That's more than Fox makes I believe.

Um, guys, they're not saying Crossman is making $6.5 mil, they're saying since Crossman DOESN'T make that much, we were willing to fire him (the assumption being we aren't willing to fire Fox BECAUSE he makes $6.5 mil). I thought it was pretty obvious.

This.

Crossman has a year left on his deal. But since he's not being back $6.5 million in 2010, the team apparently was willing to pay him not to work.

Should read as:

Crossman has a year left on his deal. But since he's not being paid $6.5 million in 2010, the team apparently was willing to pay him not to work.

I read that earlier and had to double-take.

      I think it's more related to the difference between proven talent and projected talent. Our proven talent is quite literally almost nonexistent. Our projected talent could be significantly more. Obviously, it remains to be seen how many DJ Moore's we get and how many TMJ's(not making this position specific, just giving examples of clear progression of careers and talent being realized versus not). This could be an exceptionally terrible, underwhelming, okay, fairly decent, surprisingly good, etc roster. All that has to play out on the field because our known entities in terms of above average caliber NFL players is paltry but most standards. All that digital bloviating to basically say, "Show me." As for Tepper, I genuinely don't think he has meddled that much less and I don't think he has stepped back. I think he just cleaned house of most of the people chirping about it internally while not making himself so publicly visible because he is very aware of the meme he has made himself and this franchise. IMO, he will continue to fug this franchise over because that is who he is as a person.

      Also Walker is a game time decision. He might not be able to play tonight.
