It makes sense to hang onto any homegrown talent, gotta start somewhere. You can’t tear the roster down every year. 

I mean sure you can, teams do it yearly on a regular basis. Those teams are called the toilet teams and the Panthers are one of them now thanks to an owner who thinks he is always the smartest person in the room

If Brooks was healthy Chuba would have been traded to the Cowboys for a conditional 7th round pick in 2068

That or Sanders. I don't think a value judgement made regarding the 2024 season necessarily locks anyone into 2025 and beyond.

Not far enough. NFL wants a team in Europe, and I don't think many people will stand in the way...

That poo would seriously relieve me of some guilt, because I want to abandon ship right now but the years/decades of loyalty keep holding me back.

They could be massively improved, but there is no way to fix that defense in one year, so 'good' I am not so sure about. 

But yeah they could be much better with competent QB play on offense. 

I see too many holes still on offense and it worries me for the defense because you can see where the priorities lie.

I agree it may take a few seasons to fix the defense. But I still think we could go from bottom of the barrel to top 25 in one season. Not a gigantic improvement but with a good offense they could be an opportunistic defense. 
I believe QB and defense will be the focus this off-season.

I am afraid the focus will be on this little QB again. At that point I won't give a poo what they do with the defense. Or the offense or the turf or the concerts or the soccer team or any of their poo.

I think Young is done here. They may play him the rest of the way but even that will depend on if Andy even wants to start again. I get the impression he would rather sit this season out if the choice was his to make. But Young will be shipped as soon as they have a better replacement.

I think it makes sense to trade Young in the offseason during the QB musical chairs, much like how we went after Darnold from the Jets.

They will trade him unless he has a miraculous turn around before the season is over. I put the odds of that at 1% as it stands right now.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
