That JR is setting this team up for sale. I listend to this and wondered... he has a logical thought process. All the big contracts and older players getting kicked to the curb, the team will be about $40MM under last year's salary cap and they will be very young with a lame duck coach and GM. How easy is that for a new owner to come along and mold his own squad. I don't know if want to believe it 100%, but I do think it warrants discussion. JR did fire his sons, he is up there in age and he might want to cash things in once the labor agreement is finalized (or maybe before). The NFL is still a strong league and I have to think a lot of folks would love to buy the team, especially in the current state it is in. So lets began the conversation shall we?

I can definitely see the argument. I don't think its the case, but won't discount the possibility of it happening. Then again, many of the recent actions would be made by an owner expecting a lockout next year. Lose the terrible contracts, get rid of players too old to sit out a year.

I completely disagree. The Panthers have been the crown jewel in his life's work. He's not the type of owner that would give that up, especially not in the last stages of life.

There have been plenty of firesales in the past that didn't end up with teams being sold. On the contrary, owners that are looking to sell try to swoop in and collect as many top-tier players as possible to make the team more attractive to potential buyers.

I respect Buck's opinion when it comes to guys he played with, but he has no experience in this matter that makes him an expert over anyone else.

Quit being coy, Mr. Soon to be one of 32

LINK PLEASE. I mean i know who Brentson Buckner is but i doubt this is a real prediction. I think it is yet another chicken little saying the sky is falling.

      shough vs tmac off rookie of the year

      By CRA · Posted

      in starts, he has played better, been more efficient and outproduced Bryce by virtually every statistical metric that exists in 2025.  And has the 2 head to heads over Carolina.  I mean, your jaw should hit the floor.  But not for the reason you are implying.  That freaking stings.  Denying these realities isn't going to help the Panthers build a better team going forward.

      shough vs tmac off rookie of the year

      By CRA · Posted

      He is basically having a polar opposite rookie season than Bryce. 4-3 as a starter on a very bad team.  68% for 237 passing yards and 19 rush per game. 9 TDs,  6 TOs in his starts.  and folks acknowledge the surprisingly play because no one thought poo of the random 2nd rounder and he is player better as a rookie thus far than so many prized picks did as a rookies (not just Bryce but a boatload of dudes).   It's only a sour issue to give someone props because he is a Saint and of course the Bryce thing.  It's like giving the TE in Clev props for having near identical production as the chosen one Tyler Warren.  Fannin is having a great rookie season in a very bad spot.

      This is a very weird take. The reason Shough doesn't deserve it is because he's only started 7 games. He's doing crazy well for a rookie and out playing plenty of vets with a worse roster. He's waaay above league average in a number of categories during his starts and he passes the eye test in game by making plays. Meanwhile Bryce Young had one of the worst rookie seasons of all time. Still TMac deserves it more. It's only been 7 games for Shough so he doesn't deserve any awards. Even if he gets to 9 he doesn't.
