Every year people freak out about the cap and every year the Panthers spend.  Caps a myth and can manipulated to get what you want

Cap concerns are real. Ask any number of teams, including the current Saints. I mean, have we all forgotten how badly Hurney 1.0 left us cap strapped??

I tend to agree with you about the cap. But in fairness every year the Panthers are also trash. Sucks but that's the truth.

Think this has more to do with drafting and coaching.  Hopefully we are moving in the right direction.  At this time no one knows, and if they claim to they are full of poo

Drafting yes absolutely. Last year was a lack of talent on the coaching end more than anything IMO. You don't give up the most defensive points in history without having left the cupboards bare. Winning free agency is one thing. The 2025 draft class is going to be one of the most consequential in franchise history for us.

I hve to explain to why that is bad?

You can explain why it’s the end of the world. Moton is a core player who is still a top 10 RT in the league. We can extend and lower his cap hit if we want, and if he or the team doesn’t want to do that then we are paying a lot of money to a guy who is instrumental to our offense for one more year. The cap hit is not great, but at least he will play and play very well. Our problems have been dead cap.

Free agent defensive end Dante Fowler Jr. has agreed to a contract with the Dallas Cowboys, a source confirmed to ESPN.

 

It marks a return to Dallas for Fowler, who played for the team in 2022 and '23 before signing with the division-rival Washington Commanders last year. Fowler will help to replace defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence, who left Dallas to sign with the Seattle Seahawks this week.

    • We both know there's more that goes into batted passes than just the height of the QB. Most people here have readily acknowledged this and there were numerous discussions about it before we drafted Young. But if you are presenting a POV that Bryce's height hasn't tied to issues with his footwork then there's nothing anyone is going to be able to say to sway you and you know this. Even beyond the footwork I recall a redzone play where Bryce couldn't see around his right tackle at all where a receiver was waiting practically alone in the end zone for a touchdown. There are real world circumstances that are going to show up over the course of the upcoming season and it's up to Bryce and Dave Canales to make adjustments and do anything they can to mitigate negative instances and yes that begins with Bryce's footwork again. Thanks for your time. Have a nice weekend.
    • I'm arguing that should those supposed deficiencies, like height or pocket footwork, be as consequential as you and others have claimed, then there would be a clear, observable impact in the data. That's not unreasonable. For example, batted passes are often used as a size-related concern (see: Baker Mayfield), yet Bryce ranked among the lowest in deflections at the line. If his stature is such a limitation, why isn't it showing up there? Or are you suggesting that's why his passing yards fall short of your expectations? If the latter, I would hope that you're not discounting yards left on the field due to drops (of which he led the league in).  Also, asking for specific, measurable benchmarks isn't aggression... it's accountability. If that feels uncomfortable, it might be worth reflecting on how much of your anti-Bryce argument is grounded in subjective perception rather than objective metrics. So, again: do you have any specific KPIs beyond total passing yardage, height, and weight that you consider relevant to evaluating whether a QB is top-10? If you want to add YPA and passing yards per game to those metrics, that's fair, just be clear about it. But let's not pretend that asking for clarity is some kind of provocation. I'm simply trying to understand the actual criteria... not just the vibes.
    • Jackson actually played quite well for a #2 CB #54 in PFF coverage ratings 12 pass break ups solid in run defense..... Hes gonna be targeted just because Jacyee IS being avoided.
