This thread is addressed to a certain portion of the huddle population. Specifically, those who would wish for 20 months without NFL football just so that they could choose first in the draft again and land Andrew Luck. If that is you....keep reading.

You are fuggin crazy. I'm not being funny. I believe you to be certifiably insane. Check yourself into a mental facility today. You are too far gone. You are a danger to yourself and those around you. You are one step away from writing Andrew Luck's name repeatedly on your wall with your own excriment.

There are two elite QB's in this league. That means 30 teams make do without one. The last 3 superbowls were won by those teams.

To wish for an entire season to be scrapped for one player who may or may not be an elite QB? How can you call yourself a football fan?

Here is your chance to come to your senses before the rest of us laugh at and mock you repeatedly.

:out:

I don't want there to be a lockout, but I can understand why some would. If you want what's best for the long-term success of the team then I suppose some would take it that far. I personally don't see the point if there's no football being played, but that's just me.

If they think drafting Luck guarantees long term success then they have very little understanding of the game. Just ask Dan Marino.

No, its not ok. I am taking a stand here. If you are hoping for a lockout you are not a football fan. Period.

Well, I suppose that depends on if you consider yourself a football fan first or a Panthers fan first. I personally could give a sh** less about the rest of the league. Now the lockout is a whole other issue as it could have a very negative effect on every team INCLUDING the Panthers.

No need to flame, but you should look at it from other points of view. They might think your the one who needs to be put into a mental institution.

They very well may. But the guy on the street corner with the bull horn proclaiming god resides in his own rectum probably thinks I am nuts for not believing it also.

No actual Panthers fan would be willing to go 20 months without a Panthers game for the chance to draft on rookie.

Yeah, a lockout would likely result in them shaking up the draft order somehow anyway. We've got a better shot at Luck playing out the season and going down fighting again. But then we start with the 'do you REALLY want them to win this week?' talk, which is a whole other can of worms.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.

      No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".

      As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
