While I agree, you still gonna have to pay Burns and the market dictates that he’s probably worth around 25 to 30 mil

And at this point you can’t let him walk

Why can't we let him walk? Preferably tag and trade, but we are not tied to him.

Because of sunken cost, if you let Burns walk after we buffing trades for him that’s the kind of actions that gets people fired

The whole principle of sunken cost is to not let the prior decisions impact a future decision. You got that backwards.

It’s not that you can’t it’s that it’s beyond idiotic. It shows a completely inept franchise to the highest degree to turn down two first and a second to just let him walk. Just like Peppers, but that situation was even worse since he flat out said he didn’t want to be here with time to trade him. 

Good franchises don’t do this, they’ll always trade before they take a loss. The Panthers will look even more stupid than they already do. In fact, I’m not sure there is coming back from that if we aren’t there already.

Brown should be extended. Burns needs to be traded for draft capital (not to mention cap space) we can use to re-build the offense.

Love Brown as an Auburn fan he is one of my favorite players.  I agree in building a defense around him, but I am also ok if we do a FULL rebuild and trade off our players for draft assets.  Trade off any player with a good value return and rebuild from scratch is an option as well.

Funny because when he was a rookie, Brown got the same vitriol Bryce gets now.

Very true, and I was one of the few that defended him (especially when we were running a 4-3 defense and he came out of a 3-4 defense at Auburn). Dude is a freaking stud now.

Bryce, on the other hand, is hard to defend when he has shown no promise over the entire season...

If you saw the Texans game, he showed as much there as Brown did in his best game as a rookie.

Just FYI brother, the base defense used by Kevin Steele at Auburn during Brown’s years was the 4-3.

Now Steele lined Brown up at various positions on that defensive front at different times according to the situation and play-call, but the vast majority of snaps were at 3-tech.

That's also what I recalled, a 4-3.

      You don’t even need 1b because Tepper is the only one foolish enough to wheel that deal.    Player wise? Jake’s elbow. JR and Pep getting sideways, no Carruth, Cam’s shoulder, Luke’s concussions, it would be a long list of stuff. You can take it down to certain plays in games. Fox chasing 2 point conversions in the SB would be on my list. RMJr slipping at the end of that same game was not helpful.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      By frankw · Posted

      Ultimately this just amounts to heavy revisionist history. I mean you aren't talking to someone that just popped out the womb a week ago. I was here all throughout the predraft process. The overwhelming majority of the fanbase felt like this was a fine situation and the best situation for a rookie QB to go to compared to Houston for example. The hype for Young and our "rockstar" staff was off the charts. No one could dare speak cautious skepticism of his abilities or they would be neg repped into oblivion. Only after he had one of statistical worst rookie seasons of the last 25 years did we get this narrative now that his rookie season actually shouldn't count. Complete malarkey if you ask me.

      On the field? Since I guess it qualifies as multiple instances it might not count, but have the damn refs throw some flags on illegal hits to Cam's head in SB50. If that doesn't count, 1A. Cotchery caught it 1B. Kasey keeps that kickoff inbounds. Off the field? 1A. Team is sold to anyone but Tepper 1B. We have the patience not to mortgage the franchise on that Bryce trade. Stroudwpuldve been the better pick but he's not worth it either.
