Definitely going to be a lot worse next year, but we all knew this would happen. Should be a fringe playoff team and 2025-26 will be a big improvement for us 

Not too worried about it.  I don't think the drop off is going to be as bad as some think. Remember we went farther in 2019 did we did last year when we were supposedly stacked for a cup run.

The Panthers fan crossover is the issue. Too many are shell shocked from being Panthers fans. 

The sky isn't falling. We are still stocked with talent. If we don't win a Cup next season the sky will still remain where it is. 

We have a young core and a deep farm system.

I think FUS forces his way onto the roster Ala Jarvis...

I agree there is way too many Panthers esque the world is ending posters right now.

They have publicly stated they are not done...

If they resign Jarvy, they have less than 4m in cap based on reports. They wouldn’t have enough to sign Necas, Drury, and Coghlan. 

so they have to do something with KK or Kuz. 
 

if they just sign Jarvis and Drury, think they have 2.75m in cap space. 
 

hence my comment that they are done pending one of those to be moved.

I think the difference is the other teams in the East in 2019 were nowhere near as deep and talented as they are now. Tampa, NYR, Boston, FL, Tampa, & Toronto are all very good and teams like NJ (and to a lesser extent NYI, Wash, and Pitt) are pretty good. Luckily we aren't in the Atlantic and "should" make the playoffs, but we aren't a legit threat to win the Stanley Cup next year IMO

Dude, just chill and take a breath. No one wins a Cup on the first day of free agency any more than Super Bowls are won on the first day of free agency.

Let it play out.

I was kidding my guy. Trying to have some fun with it with your word play on “Panthers Fan”.  More or less making fun of myself. 
 

I actually think we will be just fine.

I just want Necas gone, he already has killed at least two trades by not wanting to sign extensions with the team he was being traded to. One with Nashville for the fourth pick. 
 

he obviously doesn’t want to be here and only wants to go somewhere where he’s going to be the top line center.

looks like arbitration and we keep him - I'm ok with that, let him prove himself if he wants to be considered elite. what does this do to the cap space?

If the arbitration is anything over 3m aav then something needs to happen with Jarvis and his contract or one of KK or Kuz needs to be moved. Jarvis is going to be around 6-7m aav unless they do a short bridge deal.

Seth Jarvis isnt even eligible for arbitration yet 🙄

    • 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.  
    • 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.
