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.

    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre. 
    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.
