I'm aware of the possibility of a lockout, but haven't really read into it too much.

My question is, I'm not really clear on what happens after the CBA runs out on March 3rd. Do the NFL and NFLPA continue talks after the 3rd to get a deal done in hopes of playing the 2011-12 season? Or do they have to wait until the next calender year to get a new deal done and play the 2012-13 season?

They don't even have to lock the players out after the March 3 deadline. They can call an impasse, force the offer that was on the table at the time of impasse on the players, and operate under the impasse. Which would mean the players would be the ones that would either just eat it or go on strike.

I know my link is to PFT, but it makes a lot of sense for the owners to make the players responsible for no football and avoid the PR hit from it.

      good one dude. I guarantee I went to more games than you last year and I live on the opposite side of the country. let me give you some FAQ's to save you some time from asking another dumb question while trying to passively fit your narrative: do I think Bryce is a great NFL QB? No. do I think Bryce is worth a contract extension? Not yet. do I think the Panthers are in a great position to evaluate him and then decide? Yes. did Bryce and the Panthers do enough last year and finish on a high note that has me feeling positive and excited for the next season? Yes. is wasting a single second whining and complaining about a player that I dislike on a fan forum for a football team that is watched for entertainment purposes only an efficient way to spend my time? Definitely not. are the same 5-10 posters that spend hours on here daily racking up thousands of posts focusing on something they cannot control ruining this forum? 100%. will they continue to do so? 100% and probably will do so for the next QB as well because they are miz in life and complaining about things that don't involve them make them feel better about their lives which is a psychological fact.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      Overall it was a fun pleasant surprise of a game. That final drive by the Panthers was atrocious though. It would have been nice to at least go down landing a few blows not just punching air. We shrunk in the moment. I don't want to say it took away from the rest of the game but it was certainly unfortunate.
