True, he could implode. They just seem like a very complete team. They already dog walked the 49ers and I'd trust Lamar (or any of the AFC QBs left) over Purdy. I thought Purdy was pretty bad today and the 49ers always seem to get their QB exposed (or hurt) in the NFCCG or SB recently. 

They're gonna have to implode because damn, they look DOMINANT in the trenches and if you can control the LOS on both sides of the ball you're HARD to beat. That's what separates the blue blood teams in college. They rarely ever lose in the regular season because they dominate the LOS every week.

Why do y'all care who wins these games? Just let it go and just watch for the love of the game. Trust me, it makes for a lot more entertainment and a lot less stress. This season has made me remember the joys of just being a general NFL fan. Yeah, you don't get the super high highs of being a fan of a team doing well but we're Panthers fans here. Do we actually have any realistic hope of that in the near future? Just watch for the entertaining the game and let the results go. 

I don't really care that much but it makes it more entertaining when you have a team to root for. I usually root for whichever team hasn't won a super bowl before or the team that has connections to the Panthers.

So of the remaining teams, I'm pulling for the Bills, Lion, or 49ers. 

Seeing the Chiefs win again would be boring that may be the only outcome Id not like. 

If the Cheifs win again they're basically the new Patriots

That being said, I think they over achieved for it being Jordan Love's first season starting. If they had actually won this game (easily could have imo if their kicker doesnt miss that field goal and they get a field goal on that last drive to win) and gotten the NFC CG, that wouldve have been bonkers for such a young team and a QB starting his first year. 

 

Yeah, I can see that. But ending on that note is rough. Seeing your QB go out with such a brutal decision is rough.

Looking to tomorrow...this is IT for the Bills, right? If I'm a part of that org I'm thinking we HAVE to win this game or it's curtains for us with the current regime. They looked dead and buried halfway through the season and resurrected themselves, which is great, but this is like the entire franchise is on the line tomorrow. In my mind, at least..

Id feel kind of indifferent I guess. I don't have any real connection to either team other than the Bucs being in our division. 

But the Bucs have already won 2 super bowls. Them winning another one would be surprising but I wouldn't personally be mad. Baker was incredibly bad when he was playing in a Panthers uniform. Whether you want to blame him or the coaches/gm or what have you, thats up to debate I guess.

I'm cheering hard for the Bills and the Lions.  I almost got as hyped to see that Josh Allen long TD run as I did when I saw Cam do something similar to the Buccaneers in his rookie season I think.

After watching the Ravens on TV and the 49ers in person tlday, the 49ers better hope like hell the Ravens forget how to play because otherwise the Ravens beat them by 30 

The 49ers still have to get past either the Lions or the Bucs.

The Ravens still have to get past either the Bills or the Chiefs.

The Super Bowl matchup is far from set.

      Well, the Niners just doomed themselves to mediocrity

      Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.

      The Bryce Trade is Finally Complete. Who Won the Trade? Panthers vs Bears

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO.

      Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
