Burns is seriously overrated and comparing him to Bosa is crazy. Burns has never taken over a game. The best he's liked is when we had Reddick on the team. He can't beat double teams on a regular, consistently dissappears in games abs gets out run by QB's. Burns is a good player but he doesn't have Bosa value on this team because he gives up or quits during games. He needs a a Reddick to be successful.

Cause he DESERVED an extension! Bosa won't play until he got his extension and they made him the highest paid defensive player in the NFL. Fitter would NOT even offer him a reasonable but fair extension which is Burns deserves.

Brian Burns did not earn Bosa bucks. And he hasn't yet so far this year.

I sure wish he had, but that's just what it is.

I love how people call themselves Panthers fans, but talk down on specific players. It's crazy how this board continues to talk down on one of our better players.

 

 

Do better huddle.

Paying Burns close to Bosa money on top of all these other dumbass moves will absolutely destroy and cripple this franchise for years to come.

We are already on the brink of that if not there already. Burns is not only NOT worth that but even IF he all of a sudden takes over games, this team is too trash for it to matter. Just like CMC.

Should've traded him when we had the chance, but if they can recoup a first+ right now, that is the smartest move with a house cleaning looming.

Burns is not the problem. The problem is Tepper. He hired bad coaches and lets Fitt waste our draft picks on bad players.

 

We will continue to suck even after we trade Burns. We just traded 3 of our best players in just 2 years. 

 

 

This franchise is a joke!

I agree to a point---some may take it a little too far---but Burns deserves some criticism here because he's taken his contractual expectations too far. He was offered a fair contract commensurate with his worth to the team and his production relative to other EDGEs in the league. In my opinion, I think he's just being greedy, but that's his choice. His head got a little inflated due to the Rams offer.

Burns is good, maybe even "really good" at times, but he's never been great. If we pay him like he's great, then the only way that we'll be able to "fix" it is to draft (or luck up on) a player who actually is great so that we can exploit his rookie contract at the same time as being hamstrung by Burns' contract, because this hypothetical player would ironically be the very thing that helps Burns to raise his game to a point where he appears to be great. But, of course, finding that player would be difficult, and we might not ever do it. In the meantime, we'd just be stuck with an overpaid rusher who is almost what you want sometimes. I just don't want to be in that situation.

Now being reported that he’s probable to play, which means the injury was legitimate.

 

you wouldn’t give a guy a phantom injury if you’re trying to trade him. 

He has been playing hurt for the past couple games. He typically has been playing through it.

Only reason Burns is one of our “best” players is because we suck. On a better team with a better line he would be just another cog in the in the wheel. Replaceable.

Also means he's not getting traded before Tuesday.

 

Now we have to keep hearing these Burns haters for the rest of the season. Just when you think it couldn't get any worse.

Stop it.

 

On a better team with better players he would be even better than he is now. 

 

Wake up dude we are the worst team in football. Any player on this roster would look better on another team. Tepper has turned this franchise into a laughing stock.

 

I kind of hope we trade Burns just so he can get to a better situation. Those picks we get will just be wasted anyway Fitt is clueless when it comes to the draft.

Bye week really got a lot of key guys injured

such a joke

You can see that a lot of our players are mentally checked out already. Lots of niggly injuries during the games, where they have to come out for quarters at a time. Now they're making it official.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      By Proudiddy · Posted

      I had started typing my post hours ago and didn’t finish it and just came back to finish it, posted it, then saw yours and saw we were pretty much saying the same thing - even the games that stick out to us most.  I don’t think a lot of people remember that SF playoff game, but I felt like I had just got mugged in broad daylight.  I remember them calling Mitchell for unnecessary roughness, and then I remember watching Boldin take a super late cheap shot, dead in front of the ref and then showing him watching the whole thing in replay…  the refs let them have a fuging field day and didn’t do jack poo, but if we so much as breathed the wrong way it was fuging 15 yards.  Each team playing under two completely different sets of rules.  poo hurt.  I was enraged.  I’ve never went back to watch either that game or SB50 and never will.  fuging robbery.

      I’ve said it a million times since, but it’s impossible to keep them from affecting the game.  In SB50, they literally took the game from us, and they did it early.  Cotchery’s no-catch?  The miraculous amount of times we converted for a first down only to have it suddenly called back make it a 3rd down and 15+ against the best defense in the league that specialized in rushing the passer and man coverage on the back end?  And you do that enough times, you kill the morale and confidence of the team you’re doing it against.  It’s telling the one team “you can do whatever with impunity” and the other “you can’t do whatever they’re allowed to do.”  It changes the aggression level.  It essentially neuters one team and allows the other to do whatever the fug they want.  Imagine you call the police for help and they get there and tell you to sit still while the other party beats the poo out of you and you can’t defend yourself.  That’s what the officials do.  There is no way to avoid them affecting the game.  And more often than not, it’s the most subjective calls they use to do so.  Even in SB50…  you saw the Broncos commit more egregious penalties than anything we did, and barely any of it was called.  Their OL was holding all fuging game and the refs did nothing.  We already had our work cut out for us against two future HOF edge rushers and the refs played to their advantage with that.  From what I remember, both Oher and Remmers were called for holding at various times and their hands were in the INSIDE of the defender.  It was garbage, but all by design. Also, if there is any video of it anywhere, go look at what the refs did against us back in 2013 against SF.  The fix was in there too.  They stepped in early and often and ensured we knew we were not allowed to play with the same aggression or intensity SF was.  It was disgusting as well. at this point, I hope Vince McMahon, errr, I mean Goodell just finally scripts us to win it, because this poo is not won via competition or off merit.

      You can go back to the New York Knicks somehow getting Patrick Ewing.  I saw a story where they place the New York Knick card in the freezer right before the drawing.  It was simple.  Show everyone the cards are undetectable to the human eye.  All they had to do was grab the coldest card. IMO ever since Goodell took over the NFL it has been fishy.  Patriots winning the SB after 9/11, New Orleans after Katrina and Peyton Manning's going away gift against us. The terrible calls during that game were blatantly one sided.  New England should have been stripped of their first 3 SB when they were caught spying on the other team in their SB wins.  I think the evidence against the Patriots was so damning Goodell felt it could ruin football and they brushed it under the table.   In the 2004 SB, How did we go from practically no yards in the first Quarter to setting a record in the 3rd Qtr.  Dan Henning changes the game plan.  IMO probably the greatest half time adjustment of all time.
