I think you are joking here, but that wouldn't be a nightmare scenario, it would be the final nail in the coffin of this franchise.

It would mean firing a coach for the 3rd straight year, to hire a guy who is NOT an NFL coach, his style won't work with NFL players, it only can work with college kids.  And then you'd be drafting his son and thus locking yourself into a situation for 3 years where you can't fire the coach no matter how bad it goes because it would then basically make your QB refuse to play for you if you did.

That's all also before even taking into consideration that Sanders is nowhere near as good as the hype around him is, if he was as good as the hype, Colorado wouldn't have been as bad as they were this year

How do you feel about us throwing 100mil at a guard?

 

I know you were big on not spending big money this year.

“more teams are involved”

then why are we discussing settling, what is the apparent rush to get this done

I assume to open up cap space when deals become official on Wednesday and to quickly pivot to the crop of unsigned edge rushers before they get claimed.

I can deal with a 1st next year. We could be in a Bears situation with 2 top 5 picks.

 

Draft Sanders and the top WR. Hire Deion as HC.

 

*Just messing with you Linville. That would be your worst nightmare huh?

Nah, it would be a dream scenario. At this point I'm practically begging for this franchise to do something that would force me to cut ties. I wish they'd hired Sean Payton.

We lost Burns months ago.  All that is left is trying to get something for him

Scott Fitterer missed that boat with the Rams trade but hey we had all those cute memes the team put out like "In Fitt We Trust" and "Gettin' Fitty wit it" when they traded up to the first overall pick last year.

doesn’t really sell with me friend. We’re talking about giving up our only remaining pass rusher against an supposed deep crop of bidders. You drive the price up as long as possible. The cap will be fine in the interim. 
 

signing those replacement pass rushers makes you look less desperate to get something done, but here we are again with the team telegraphing that they have to get some thing done. “It doesn’t bother me if this doesn’t happen” is the most empowering position of any negotiation and hedge fund guy had persistently failed to perceive this in the football world

Yea, I saw your post and chose to ignore it because it was stupid

I never once said we shouldn't be spending money, I've said time and time again that we need to spend it wisely.

No, I don't love paying that much for a guard, but he fits the mold of who I said we should be spending on, someone young enough that can be a good player for not only this contract, but still young enough to sign another with us when this one is done.

I was against throwing enough money at Ridley to come here instead of going to a contender, as his age at his position doesn't make him likely to be even elite for the length of a 3-4 year contract, let alone sign another after.

Im guilty of posting a couple of those laser eyes ones.

I've seen enough of Morgan and already want a new GM.

      I actually had some extra money and decided to do something I've never done before...I put 100$ on the panthers.  If I lose, eh whatever, but the absolute complete disrespect is just kinda surprising.  Things to consider. Panthers have won their last 3 road games After an abysmal start on the road, the panthers have won the last 3, granted game 1 was against the Jets, but the other 2 were solid road victories, one being the Packers and one being the Falcons and while some may dismiss Atlanta due to the record, that was their legit final gasp at life and a loss essentially killed their season and putting a team away in a make or break game is always difficult. The 9ers havent been great at home The 9ers are 7-4 on the season but even with that record they are 5-2 on the road and only 2-2 at home and even that is kind of missing the home road split more.  They beat a rough atlanta team at home 20-10 and a 1 point win against a pretty bad cardinal team (yes I know we lost to them). Stopping making 49ers 1 Dimensional I think we're all aware of the weaknessess the panthers have how we are potentially to be exposed by Kittle and CMC.  those are VERY viable critiques.  However, thats in the passing game, but the 9ers are 6th worst at running the ball, they arent a great team between the tackles, and as such our front should be able to stop that middle of the field and make everything go outside which is where having Moerig in a Buffalo Nickel will help.   Before people poo on me, Im not all sunshine pumping, I VERY WELL could see us lose this game, and maybe even get embarrassed, HOWEVER there is a lot to like about our potential.  For playoffs this game has a ton of meaning and You have to know the team knows that, a loss hear loses a tie breaker with a team potentially for the last spot.  They will be focused and I didnt even mention the homecoming of sorts for Bryce and Tmac who are gonna wanna show out back in Cali. Summation, panthers win 30-24
