Can't play forever and being 300+ makes it even worse. Great dude but I just hope he can play through the year healthy. 

Signing 2 OGs at max market value just made this inevitable last year while the LT is looking at a new contract. It's just the NFL business side.

It's a business.  He's been compensated.   It's nothing personal just the way the league is.  

He's making $31M this year. Im fairly confident that is more than the annual salaries of everyone on this board combined.

I love T-Mo, but we got to keep it in perspective.

Neither side is in the wrong here

I just hope dan, tepper or bt don't make an emotional move.  Just play this year out and see what's up.

If he's that much of a homer, he'll take a discount on his next contract.  I really doubt he's going to give up millions on his last contract to stay in Carolina though.  

Thanks for your service though Taylor.  One of the few guys we've had over the last 5-10 years that's actually been good.

If he wants to continue to play and is physically capable of continuing to play then I'm sure a deal will be reached. But I'm not gonna sit here and feign pity for someone who has earned a literal fortune. He'll make more this year than most wildly successful people will earn in a lifetime. Taylor Moton is gonna be just fine with or without the Panthers moving forward.

There's that s word again...If the career curve and contract numbers align, then perhaps he'll be here, but he deserves fan appreciation however it goes.

And the team (especially Brandt) has to worry about resource allocation. We have one of the most expensive Olines in the league. 

No issues with that per se, but with Icky's extension coming up and paying Lewis & Hunt already, it may be better from a team building perspective to draft a RT in the 1st round next year rather than paying another veteran in their 30s.

I just hope that if this is Moton's last year, he (and for us fans) can make the playoffs.

If he really wants to be here, that can happen.  It's totally up to him.  Yes, he'll have to take a hometown discount to do it.  He'll have to show that the last two seasons were outliers and he hasn't become an injury risk.

It will come down to money and how much of it he wants.  If he wants to be paid at the upper end of the scale, it won't and can't happen here.  When healthy, he deserves that kind of pay and if he wants it someone else will pay it.

It can totally happen.  And it's totally in his court.

You got it figured out, Once Icky gets his mega-deal that will be 3 different OLmen with cap hits in the 20s........Unless Motown wants to take a super discount, he will get a bigger offer else where. Panthers need both C and RT on rookie deals or around 5 million per..... Just the facts.

      Canales is in most critical point of his tenure

      By ProcessBlue2 · Posted

      Canales is in the middle of the most critical point of his Panthers tenure: The 2nd half of the 2nd season. Looking back here is how the other head coaches performed to this point and how their time here pivoted. Dom Capers First 26 Games: 13-13 2nd Half of 2nd Season: (1996) won final 7 games to win division, took Panthers to NFC Championship Game. Final Record/Accomplishments: 30-34; NFC West Division Title-1996 George Seifert First 26 Games: 12-14 2nd Half of 2nd Season: (2000) Finished 3-3 with mixed results in games; finished 1-15 the following season. Final Record/Accomplishments: 16-32; None. John Fox First 26 Games: 15-11 2nd Half of 2nd Season: (2003) corrected the season after a strong start and mid-year stumble to win division, Won NFC Championship Game. Final Record/Accomplishments: 73-71; (1) Conference Championship; (3) Playoff Appearances; (2) Division Titles. Ron Rivera First 26 Games: 8-18 2nd Half of 2nd Season: (2012) Won 5/6 remaining games; finished 12-4 following season and won division. Final Record/Accomplishments: 76-63-1; (1) Conference Championship; (4) Playoff Appearances; (3) Division Titles; (2) COY Awards Matt Rhule First 26 Games: 10-16 2nd Half of 2nd Season: (2021) Lost final 7 games in a row, terminated 5 games into following season. Final Record/Accomplishments: 11-27; None. Dave Canales First 26 Games: 10-16 2nd Half of 2nd Season: TBD Final Record/Accomplishments: TBD The writing was on the wall at the end of Rhule and Seifert’s 2nd season, while Capers, Fox, and Rivera all finished strong and rallied. To be fair, Capers 1997 and 1998 seasons weren’t great, but he was faced with adversity and still managed to leave with at least one successful season...thanks to the second half of his 2nd season.

      Honestly unless the Packers WR in the end zone was disqualified from tackling, he was literally right behind him ready to tackle him at the 5 yard line. Probably better he dropped it field position wise unless people think Mike Jack has Ted Ginn speed or something.
