Do you watch CJ Stroud and wonder ‘what if’?

Honestly, what would be the point?

That’s my thought. He’s not here. If he was, I’d probably be a lot happier on Sundays from 1-4, but whining about it doesn’t do any good. 

I would love to have a RB rush for 150 yards too — that’s more than Sanders has in the last 7 games COMBINED

Would hope fans that have been putting money into this team quit doing so, why support tepper when he’s shown time and time again he’s not interested in building a winning product? 

I think he is interested he is just going about it as a moron would.  When you let you wife make football decisions then bad things ie Young happen

It’s so weird to see folks tell people who have been around for a long time to go root for another team because they are impressed with a player. It’s like a last resort when you have nothing else to say. 

It shows their intelligence, or lack thereof.  If you cannot admit you are wrong about this, then there is nothing to do but laugh hysterically at them.

There’s “impressed,” and then there’s “obsessed”. Quite a few on here fall into the latter and not the former

Also just to add. Maybe this is proof that maybe football isn’t that complicated?

I mean the same ignorant arguments against Stroud could be extrapolated to the Cam days when they would hate on his completion percentage or his “cerebral” abilities. 
 

Well I’m here to tell you a stat padder who throws screens all day with 70% completion rate isn’t better than someone who can consistently win 3rd and long with the game on the line. That’s what Cam did, that’s what Stroud can do.

Every year some team gets the best player at whatever position they draft. Hell, a couple of times that's even been us, but no team does it consistently.

I personally don't give a sh-t whether we get the best player in a given year as long as we get a good one.

It's still a team sport.

    • I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
