He’s checked out gotta tag and trade and invest everything on the offensive side of the ball 

Does anyone know how much it would cost to tag him. I know it won’t be cheap-something like an average of the top 5 player at the position?

Yeah he made his statement and then put it on cruise control.

Other teams are watching too. I don't think they are super impressed. 

It’s just a bad look with the timing when all everyone is talking about is your contract and then as the talk dies down so does your production. I don’t consider it a coincidence. 
 

I feel like he told himself he’s going to make Fitt feel it until he caves for a new contract and when Fitt didn’t buy his bluff he was content with taking his franchise tag and moving onto a new scene in 2025. But that’s just my tinfoil hat logic.

Burns has played very poorly the past two games, not to mention the ejection.  He got worked by Wirfs and was a non-impact starter.  

Bigger picture, he still holds a lot of value by simply being a versatile pass-rusher.  But he's not providing enough for us and what we need for a guy warranted that high of share of the DL allocation.  He's a pass rusher, poor run defender...so his pass rushing better be dominant, yet here it sits, in the NFCS, at 6 sacks (36th/t) 

I also think it's now clear that he doesn't want to play here.  He didn't get traded, so then he was waiting to see the market work itself out.  It reset a bit, he realized he can possible get $30 mil.  Meanwhile, he got to see how good the team was this year, which as we all know imploded before even taking off.  

You can just see it. He doesn't want to be here and he wants the dinero.  

It would make sense if we did what Tepp/Fitt/Reich expected us to do this year (compete).  But now, we've honestly got more to build than last season which is hard to fathom.  So he's waiting, it will likely be a tag & trade.  The crappy thing is that he still has leverage at this point as bad as he's been.  That's again, another thing on Fitterer.

I never would have thought the bar could be lower than Gettleman or Hurney.

Isn't that fun to remember? The simple days of who sucked more, Gettleman or Hurney?

Meanwhile, Fitterer is digging a trench under that bar.

Fitts laid that bar across the Grand Canyon and is mooning them from the bottom.

      How would you feel if Bryce did this in 2025

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      I'm not a Bryce hater and I would 100% move on.  Especially looking at how the upcoming qb draft looks on paper.  Hopefully he continues to improve but if in 3 seasons you're still chasing average season numbers then he's not going to be the guy.  You've just got to keep taking swings until you hit.  Average qbs without any elite physical traits cant get it done anymore.  So this year Hopefully he continues to develop and is above average statistically.

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By panthers55 · Posted

      Meltdowns???? He was pulled by Canales because he wasn't executing the game plan after 2 games into the season so he could watch Dalton execute the offense and show Bryce the windows available in the NFL, how to push the ball down the field and how to step up and move around when blitzed. When Young came back 5 games later he clearly watched and improved. Enough he was named the future starter. He doesn't have a history of  meltdowns nor is there any reason to assume he will have one. From what I have read he is mentally strong and emotional stable. He may have bad games down the road, everyone does. But this is all a learning experience for him and so far he seems to be making progress. I can understand being hesitant on anything Panthers, but Young has surprisingly been able to gain his confidence after a disastrous start. You aren't alone in being cautious but I think he is the future. I thought he was too small and too short to succeed in the NFL. Honestly I was pleasantly surprised last year and am optimistic about the offense for the first time since Wilks and Dalton were decent.

      D. Morgan on T-Mac: “I made the decision pretty early [January]

      The Rams wanted to trade up for Williams who they ended up within the end. They even told him that when they called him to let him know he is the pick. The other teams are only an assumption. Like the Cowboys, who took a guard. The truth is the team wanted to trade down first and foremost but couldn't get an offer the were happy with. They took McMillan because they felt he was bpa at 8 plain and simple.
