Carolina Panthers Close to Signing Terrell Owens????


rey2009

Recommended Posts

Didn't see the stat on there where it says how many drops they had...

Owens had 9 drops in 2009.

I'll take that if it means better stats than Moose for your #2 each and every time.

By the way, Smitty had more dropped passes than Moose did. As did Vernon Davis, Dwayne Bowe, Santonio Holmes, Dallas Clark, Marques Colston, Calvin Johnson, Donald Driver, Antonio Gates, Brandon Marshall, Miles Austin, DeSean Jackson, Greg Jennings, Roddy White, and some scrub named Wes Welker.

Now, if there is a stat for throwing good blocks, that'd be interesting to see. How many Moose threw, and how many TO threw as a Bill. We rely on that.

Yes. If you want to WIN NOW, trying your luck on young unproven talent doesn't make sense --- but that's the point - the team doesn't want to win now! The Panthers are (convinced) there will be a lock out. Their goal is to get through this season. That's it. There are no short term goals and any desire for quick fixes like Owens.

Then they should give all PSL holders their money back if they don't want to "win now". :wink:

2005? Really?

2006 - 1,180 yards 13 TDs

2007 - 1,355 yards 15 TDs

2008- 1,052 yards 10 TDs

2009 - 829 yards 5 TDs with arguably the worst group of QBs in the NFL.

Moose hasnt had a 1,000 yard double digit TD season since 2004. No comparison. Owens >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Moose

2010 -37 years old. And I said nothing about Moose.

in my eyes, this is still a no-brainer. throw the guy 3mill, and have a reliable #2 to throw to for a year while Lafell and Edwards groom. even if he is a locker room distraction, our guys can suck it up for a year and possibly make a run at the post-season. hell, i would've signed the guy back in march or april. and it's not like John Fox hasn't had a locker room cancer cell before... i.e. Keyshawn Johnson... just sayin'

37? So what? You think he'd slip THAT bad in less than a year? And you quoted TO's and Moose's stats, that's why it seemed like you were trying to make a point about Moose.

But this thread should end right about...now, he ain't coming here.

Yeah, so with the MeShawn experiment, what happened at year's end? Oh yeah, the Panthers realized that they didn't need the locker room cancer and cut his bum ass.

And picked up Dwayne Jarrett, so far that decision has turned out well.

Yeah that experiment has failed, but that is all DJ and nothing to do with Meshawn. The point is that the Panthers took a flyer on a disgruntled productive WR that the OC had some experience with and still cut his ass after a productive, yet bitch-filled, season. Expecting anything different from TO is wishful thinking.

    • I can always count on yout to put things so delicately lol. I'm still not sold on the fact that Tepper will make them keep him if they don't see him as a long term answer.
    • holy poo... this thread inspired me to keep trying to guess passwords to various alts I've created over the years and I finally got in! I pretty much accepted my fate as a lurker for the last several months because I could not remember my password. I didn't realize that new users couldn't join either, that explains things. I have been around for years under several different monikers, through the good and bad. I too always find myself coming back here even with all of the new social media options for Panther fan engagement. It's simply nostalgic.   I do get extremely annoyed with the same 5-10 posters shitting on Bryce and complaining about everything. It's unfortunate that half of them are mods and that nobody new can join because now I pretty much just come on here and see Bryce / Panther slander. There is barely any positivity to be had. We all watch this team and hang on this forum for entertainment purposes only. We have no control or say in anything. I used to be such a crazy ass fan that would argue with strangers about Cam newton on the internet and at games. Now, as a father of 3, a business owner and someone with way gnarlier life problems - I like to watch football and talk about football as an escape. Not to bitch more. I really like the direction of the team and will root anyone in a Panthers jersey. I live down the street from the Rams practice facility, Matthew Stafford is currently coaching his daughters flag football team in the same program I coach my sons. I have two highly ranked Rams staff members sons on my team. The way we beat them and had them on the ropes in the playoffs has me feeling amazing, and you would think we have the next great thing in Bryce with the way they all speak of him. I'm gonna ride that high and be a delusional fan, I hope that huddle can stick around or get fixed and perhaps I will get back to posting more now that I can log in again. I will do my best to not get banned. Keep Pounding!
    • Well, if they know Tepper wants to keep Bryce there is an an implied safety net there in case he fails. A possibility that he will be empathetic and •maybe• not fire them.  If they go against that and bring in someone else and that fails they are in a much worse spot.  IMO.  And another factor may be that after all those years of instability and musical chairs pre Bryce there will likely be a feeling of security in knowing what they have.   Kind of like settling just to keep from going through the process all over again.     IOW I think he really needs to fug up bad to lose his job and change our course.
