What sucks is we have to keep in mind who we are and the stigma we now have.  we are going to have to overpay BIGTIME to get some quality FA's.  Imagine you're Tee Higgins, or Mike Evans and you could sign a contract with even someone like the Giants, but for the same pay or maybe slightly more, you could come to Carolina where we'll be on our 3rd coach (technically 4th since Wilks was better than either of the 2 morons before or after him) in 3 years, a toxic work environment due to the dildo of an owner, and a second year quarterback who may or may not be any good but damn sure has been completely shellshocked by our incompetence...Why on earth would anyone CHOOSE to be part of this situation.

Whatever dude..

Chioce has been made and you have to surround the kid with something and see what you have.. 

You can’t keep putting him out with some bs and hoping he makes chicken salad out of it..

You made the investment now you have to figure out ways to make it work..

Sitting on your ass bitching about it isn’ a option.. Cutting ties after 1 year isn’t a option..

The bench isn’t cutting ties, right away. 

If they do not have a fair competition at QB lord help them. Get someone in there that can run an NFL offense.

Most players largely go where the money makes the most sense. 

The "Makes Sense" part is where SO MANY people get lost.  I see every offseason "We CoUlD hAvE sIgNeD (insert player name here) fOr (Insert what another team paid)" and its always stupid.  We can offer the same contracts and get turned down for multitudes of reasons.  During even our good years, we still had a hard time attracting prime free agents because they look at the fact that Marketing contracts they can sign are better in the bigger markets.  NOW add that part to our cluster of a situation, and unless we're literally backing a brinks truck to their doorstep, Most of the top flight guys ARENT gonna come here.

When you’ve traded up and drafted a player 1 overall.. You’ve made your choice for atleast 3 seasons.. So for those 3 seasons you have to either invest in your original investment or nothing.. There is no other option..

First we need better talent evaluators, don’t trust the current gm to pick the right WRs to overpay in fa, and can’t trust him to draft one either 

That’s why you over pay for proven talent… We already no Mike Evan’s is a number 1 you don’t need to evaluate that..

Throw in also that the kind of players you have to overpay for can likely also get overpaid by another team, one that might have a better situation...

I agree so you get in bidding war and Hope you have a better offer…  At this point you got to try… Because you can’t march this kid out there doing nothing hoping he can carry poor talent and we don’t have the draft capital to get a difference maker for atleast a year..

You can make the money better, but the situation is what it is.

You have to sell free agents on the idea that they'll be the difference maker.

      Dan Morgan: Panthers will pickup BY’s 5th year.

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah it is wasted for everyone. Even AT, who he fed, felt like it was wasted. Was done with it.  The resources…  surely as a long term Panthers, he put it on a side track that does not lead anywhere but right back where we were. If we had healthy CBs vs TB in ‘22 we could have gotten into the playoffs with a losing record. We essentially blew all of that time, money and assets to do a 360. 3 fuging years.    Now we are supposed to wait 5 years for him to make mid. Top 15 ranking. I am not sure they would have waited 5 years for Joe Montana. You think Belichick waits 5 years for Brady? Not me. And we are in the era of the cheap slotted salary for drat picks era, where it is supposed to be easier to move on. You have to want to though and you have to be in charge with a clue.  He has had flashes that lasted a whole game, a couple of times. I could stretch that to 4 maybe but I am not even sure of that. Maybe. He has had substantially more flashes that lasted a half or quarter, and all that combined doesn’t stack as high as his weak performances.  It is maddening.

      Well, I guess we know which team showed up.

      Should Canalas bring someone else in to call offensive plays?

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Here is how I see it...You can talk to the QB until 15 seconds before the play clock expires.  There are reasons to believe that Canales is spending a lot of time gathering information from those in better position to make the decisions.  Have you noticed how often we break the huddle between 15 and 13 seconds remaining?  I have a theory... 1. Canales is on the sideline.  His view of the field is not as good as the OC, who is sitting in the box in the sky--he can see the defense, spacing, substitutions, etc.  This means that Canales must get information from up top before selecting a play. 2. Canales has to spend time during the week with the defense, special teams, etc. in addition to the offense.  The OC is with the offense all week.  He knows the plays that were run well in practice--he knows the nicks and dings they might be complaining about--he knows their questions and input about certain plays, formations, etc.  Canales may be aware, but not AS aware.  In other words, his hand is not on the pulse as much as the OC.  It is likely that, during the week, the OC is the person answering questions and making decisions.  On Sunday, Canales steps in and makes less informed decisions. 3.  Canales likes the moniker "QB whisperer."  He may feel more confident being the voice in Bryce's helmet because he is Bryce's mentor.  Maybe he has a calming effect and maybe he thinks he can keep Bryce focused.  MAYBE he is not the best play caller, but he calls plays and mentors Bryce.  Maybe that is why he calls plays. Just a theory--but Canales could be the play caller because Bryce is the QB and he is trying to literally whisper into the QB ear.
