Interesting Deangelo Williams tidbit.

So this dude I know met Steve Smith at a restaurant and they started talking (it's true, Smitty enjoys a tasty burger once in awhile.) Apparently, he told him that he was selling his house because he wanted a bigger place in the area for his growing family and frankly, more privacy, but I told him that he's actually going to ask for a trade next season. I bet Smith is just saying that because he doesn't want negative attention and he's probably frustrated out of mind running routes for Clausen every game. So now he's not happy about it.

Sorry 89, didn't mean to out you...lol

I ran into Dom Capers at the Waffle House and he told me that Steve Smith wanted to be traded because he was getting scattered, smothered, and covered by opposing defenses. He could have just been talking about his hash browns, but I think that was code for Steve Smith. I don't care if you guys believe me or not.

Last Summer I sat across the bar from Jerry Rice at one of his favorite Mexican places in Redwood City. I didn't say a damn thing to him, nor the woman he was with.

one day, a friend of mine told me that he had never met deangelo williams or steve smith...

...and i believed him.

Man, you'll fall for anything won't you?

With the rise of Goodson I think many people have this idea were gonna keep him since he would be a cheaper back. I'm a firm believer that Goodson will be the one that isn't with Carolina next season. Dwill has said he wants to stay here and to be honest Dwill is better then Goodson. You don't let talent that wants to stay here walk away like that. If anyone says well Peppers blah blah blah, Peppers wanted out of Carolina.

Found it, my bad, I may have inferred a bit out of it, but you can take this either as being extremely good or extremely vague... But, if I'm not mistaken he answered a question like this on the radio and sounded similar but more concrete about bringing him back (I could be completely wrong though so don't bank on it, lol)

DeAngelo Williams' (injured reserve, sprained foot) agent, Jimmy Sexton, said he hasn't had any substantial conversations with the Panthers about the future of his client.

Asked if his team wanted to re-sign the impending free agent, GM Marty Hurney only said, "We've said throughout we want to keep the core of this team together." Conventional wisdom says the Panthers aren't likely to retain Williams with Jonathan Stewart capable of handling a bigger role, but they could choose to use the franchise tag and look to trade him.

    • We agree here dawg. I'd love for Bryce to succeed as would all huddlers. I have not seen a single huddler hate Bryce for anything other than his play on the field / potential / skillset. He hasn't gotten any of the irrational hate having nothing to do with football that Cam got. And yeah I understood going into this season with Bryce again as there weren't a ton of options, but man we missed the fuging mark on upgrading at backup QB with someone who could actually push Bryce. Bryce had zero pressure on him with a 100% washed up Dalton being the only other NFL caliber QB in the system. That absolutely needs to change this offseason. Ideally with an actual starter upgrade but that seems extremely unlikely due to not having many FA options and a bad draft. But at the very least with someone like you mentioned, young/upside and/or day 3 pick in the draft.   Another note, we have a top paid and top performing OL, great young talent at WR incl. likely OROY, great RB group, average all around TE group, offensive coach with creativity in the system and good play designs (poor situational playcalling but still I put out current offensive coaching staff over Shula who held Cam back for instance). Not the absolute best situation for a QB to be in, but still a very good situation around him. And yet we have a bottom 8 offense (6th lowest points scored). Imagine taking a victory lap for a QB leading his team to the 6th lowest points scored in the league and the 22nd highest passer rating (despite being asked to do less than many other QBs; i.e. Bo Nix who isn't great either and has a slightly lower passer rating but Sean Payton actually lets him try to throw the ball deep and has him throw significantly more than Bryce). Crazy
    • similar to Atlanta and the NHL.  Atlanta has lost two NHL teams (and lost a minor leaguer).  Now there's another coalition pulling together another proposal for Atlanta to get an NHL expansion. While I'd like hockey to be back in Atlanta 'cause hockey is fun, I am skeptical that it'll happen based on previous teams' experience here alternatively: similar to Atlanta hosting a Major Tennis Tournament in advance of the US Open every mid/late summer.  Aside from the fact that Atlanta is said to be the country's largest Tennis playing city (with both USTA and ALTA, along with a number of side leagues) - playing tennis outdoors in Atlanta summer is miserable *and* they had difficulty attracting players... ticket sales were not good. So the Atlanta Open closed after 14 years.  They just couldn't make it happen, even if for all intents it appears to be massive tennis interest in the surrounding area.
    • So I saw where Luke was doing that show parallel to the game. Whatever it was, statcast something something, knew it would be a good watch. I don’t get ESPN any more but that would be one of the about few things I would watch outside of games.     He doesn’t fool around on the radio broadcast.
