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.

      It's actually interesting you mention Richardson because I've seen it suggested here Bryce will have 500 or more rushing yards and 5-10 rushing touchdowns this year. And if big Anthony Richardson can get hurt carrying the rock what's that tell you about the practicality of thinking Bryce won't?

      I mean, I get why the media and some NFL and Carolina fans are saying that we don't have a real chance, but as many Huddlers should know, we won't know what we really have in this team until probably late September or early October at the earliest. And I'm not trying to be a homer, I'm just looking at things historically. Obviously I'm also looking at Bryce's "palatable" improvement the last half of last season (including being the catalyst for hanging with and nearly beating the Super Bowl participants), and the new additions that we've acquired overall. I'm also looking at the beginnings of a culture change--even if perceptibly subtle--to some degree indeed may take a foothold if things start falling the right way. But, overall, I'm still cognizant of the realization that things could just go south and that perhaps that Bryce could revert and flop, or that D & D (Dan and Dave) are not the answer, but I still am not ready to say "we're far away." Hell we could be close, albeit with growing pains, but even if we're on the course to bring legit in 2026, then guys like Ramsey would be welcome additions this season. That's just my take on it. I don't think we'll know that we're far away until some point in the season. If we can compete in the South...who knows?

      You guys remember when the narrative on here was that Bryce would be chronically injured in the NFL due to his size and Anthony Richardson would be super durable due to his? You remember when the narrative was that Bryce was physically incapable of throwing a ball further than 20 yards in the NFL? You remember “I’ll stop complaining when he throws for more than 200 yards and looks like an NFL quarterback”? You remember when 60 sacks was his fault and not the offensive line, slow WRs, and terrible scheme? Pepperidge Farm remembers. It will always be something for some people. Whatever insanity they come up with will be quickly dropped to move on to the next thing. Bryce could have an MVP Super Bowl winning season and they would complain that we can’t run the tush push with him. It will always be something.
