Some big name cuts today/yesterday


Happy Panther

Recommended Posts

J.P. Losman, QB, Seahawks

Could be back to the UFL for the underachieving former first-round pick.

Matt Leinart, QB, Cardinals

What a disaster this whole saga turned out to be. Leinart is officially a first-round BUST. For more, click here.

T.J. Houshmandzadeh, WR, Cardinals

Given that his $7 million salary was already guaranteed, the Seahawks basically said they simply didn't want the veteran wideout around. You have to figure attitude played a part. What else could result in the sudden release of a surefire 70-plus catch weapon?

Pat White, QB, Dolphins

The biggest name to get the ax (or is it axe?...why hasn’t society agreed on one spelling yet? ) thus far. Talk about wasting a second-round pick. White suffered a bad concussion late last season and was rumored to be questioning his football future earlier this summer. He wound up competing in camp, but the Dolphins no longer had a need for him after retaining Chad Pennington and bringing in Tyler Thigpen. Running back Ronnie Brown can continue to be the wild cat ace.

Willie Parker, RB, Redskins

It’s common knowledge that running backs hit a wall around age 30. Parker hit his last year at 29. Parker’s yards per carry had decreased every season in his career until 2009 (when he had very few touches with the Steelers). He was hoping for a resurgence behind Mike Shanahan’s zone-blocking scheme, but with his speed diminished and body dinged up (injuries have hounded Parker the past few years), he couldn’t climb out from the fourth spot on the depth chart.

Shayne Graham, K, Ravens (Hokie)

The longtime Bengal was expected to beat out Billy Cundiff for the Ravens kicking job. Apparently he didn’t. Cundiff has the stronger leg.

    • Dalton is 1-5 as a starter. I wouldn't hold my breath.
    • That last thing is a bad trend. It has happened in three different seasons now. If it isn’t a trend, is it a tendency? Words…. What I mean is following a successful outing (and they are rare or scarce) with a stretch of bad outings.  The slow starts individually are slow starts. Looked at as continuations of the string that started game 1 2023, there is a pattern that may or may not be predictive.  The first game people said that he turned a corner, Green Bay 2023, was followed by those two shutouts to end the season.  Then continued with the two horrific outings that had AT throwing his helmet and Canales benching him. That’s 4 straight after 1 good.  The next one I would give him high credit for is the Atlanta game. One of his two best IMO.  He followed that with this year’s opening stinkers putting the team in a big hole.  It is so up, then back down.  His other best game was vs Dallas this year, I think the best he has played start to finish, he followed with an uninspiring performance against the Jets. I was half waiting on him to give that one away more than go win it, which was just a feeling, but then he got hurt. And here we are.  Just waiting for him to prove something if he can. He is going to have his shot the second half of the year. So we will see.
    • Before the Penix pick six, the panthers had run 8 plays for seven yards while up 10-0. That includes a 5 play, 13 yard drive out of halftime where Bryce threw incomplete on third down. In that exactly what canales wanted?
