Actually, when I look at our competition for 2024, that's about all I see at the present moment. 

I guess I'll have to see some Morgan Magic before I see any more than that. 

This team needs to realize that it's not ready to compete right now. It's clearly obvious from their record over damn near a decade.

They will have to draft their way out of this and stop throwing money away on free agent players thinking you are on your way to the playoffs.

But nobody has the stomach or the patience for that. Because what we've endured since Tepper took over is somehow better?  I cannot wrap my head around that.

I still can't get over the OP. The nerve of us to be discussing Dan Morgan as our new GM, and the nerve of us to not be all giddy about it notwithstanding the circumstances!

It's like Donnelly said, as Panthers fans we essentially have to buy in because we have no choice. I really can't wait to see Dan's work unfold. I hope he's great at it---at least good at it. Until then, I'll be skeptical considering the circumstances.

You've described 98% of the Huddle, on a good day

We are pissed. I don't like firing coaches every year and we finished the season with NOT BEING ABLE TO SCORE A POINT. And we are going to make Chicago a good team. I hope everyone is pissed and play with a big chip on our shoulder.

If they had hired Dan Morgan directly from the Seahawks or Bills, we'd be calling this an amazing hire, a homecoming for a guy who played for the Panthers, etc etc

The reason the hire sucked was because Dan was a significant part of the worst 3 year stretch in Panthers history yet still got promoted to the top job. The optics of it suck.

This franchise is a sorry state that no mortal (aka people who don't have multiple billions of dollars) will ever be able to fix..

.................its like a chess board and every piece is being moved around to figure out how to win when the big brain runs out of patience or is embarrass/offended and says okay its my chess board.......throws his drink on it.....and folds it all up with the pieces falling all over the floor and walks out of the room. 

what a rut...........can't get excited about any hire or any draft pick or trade because big brain has his hands all over the chessboard.

we cleaned house but clinged onto the only front office guy left, just because he played for the team. we did this last year with Reich, que the old player highlights and pictures of him in a Panthers jersey.

nobody gives a shitt anymore. we want results. we want to remove the disease from this team and heal properly. they completely fugged this up and nothing will ever change.

he did nothing for buffalo, nothing for seattle, nothing for carolina, and nothing for his pizza restaurant. 

HUGE whiff.

Totally agree! And don't ask why we are mad on here. Now, my blood pressure is up.

    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
