The Panthers were the alleged team to trade for Jackson...

I saw it on the radio.

but really, I heard it from a guy who heard it from another guy who heard it from a guy that works with the chargers. allegedly, ALLEGEDLY, the chargers wanted a second round pick in this year's draft and a third the next year for Vincent Jackson.

I heard this from the guy and I said "the panthers don't have a second round pick, you lie." to which he replied, "that's probably why the deal didn't get done."

I then argued that if he wanted money, the panthers were the last team to fork it over.

I didn't believe him, just thought i'd share it with you highly intelligent folks here at the huddle.

discuss.

We would be instant SB contenders if we got him

Thats what everyone said about Johnson too. Even the media was on the Carolina superbowl bandwagon. Too bad things don't actually work that way. The pro-bowl is a popularity contest, the superbowl isn't

    • My read is they intended to try and get points but that first run and usage of the clock was done to hedge against things going poorly. Basically they shouldn't need all that time to score since they had multiple timeouts. Dirting that second play put us in a no-win situation. Sure you can run on 3rd down but ARI had timeouts so they still likely get the same result.
    • Anyone catch Adam archuletta referring to him as a “young qb” like bitch this is year three players are in the Super Bowl by now. 
    • I never said he had a good game in the Denver game.  As you said we had a good first drive ending in Bryce throwing a slant to XL for a TD.  It was garbage time but the back shoulder throw to Coker for the late TD was a great throw.   Throws like these in bad games are why I say he "can" do it and has the physical tools.  The question is can he do it consistently, continue to improve, grow and become our QB of the future.  Up to this point that was a hard no but with a new head coach and Bryce in his 2nd year it was 100% the right call to play out the year and see if he got better.  He did.   Two games into this year is still more of the up and down quality of play and coaching but there is still plenty of potential and we have 16 more games to decide if it's worth it to continue down this path. I don't know what will happen but I know cutting him or benching him now makes zero sense on any level. I said of those last 10 games we were only blown out in 2 of them.  I'll concede the Denver game was a blow out.  So 3 blowout loses and 7 competitive games, 4 of which we won, all decided by less than a TD.  Sounds like a team growing, improving and getting better.  All I want to do is see where that leads and if those examples of starting NFL level quarterbacking can continue to improve and become more consistent.   Anyone with pride would retire?  Laughable.  Do all of you quit in your daily lives every time things get tough or don't go your way?
