Both of those are what I am deathly afraid of.

I am very concerned they are going to sell out the next 2-3 years for one guy.

The David Tepper way. We've constantly acted like we're just that one guy away from taking the league by storm and establishing a dynasty. It's baffling.

This isn't basketball. Outside of an MVP caliber QB, one player's impact is limited. Even then, if the rest of your roster isn't at least decent, even an MVP caliber QB's impact is relatively limited in terms of overall team success and W-L record. We saw it plenty of seasons with Cam. We're seeing it with Burrow in Cincy.

Dude is an elite level RT. He was 3rd in 3rd down pressure rate allowed and top 10 in pretty much every single other stat including advanced ones among RT's for last season. 

and........wait for it.............he was already under contract for this season

If we trade our damn 2026 first then Morgan should be shown the door asap all things considered.  Surely for the love of God he isnt that stupid.

We've been daring to be great ever since Tepper bought the team just trying to skip that whole rebuilding process. We're always just one giant splash move away from being great... except we absolutely are not.

We'll cut Cam and bring in Teddy Bridgewater. Oops, make that Sam Darnold. Oh, well... Baker Mayfield.

We'll fire Ron and bring in this college hot shot who has never beaten a ranked team in his entire career. Okay, that didn't work let's go the retread route. Oh good lord, what a disaster. Okay, this interim did okay but we can do better. How about the guy that made our last QB wash out look serviceable?

We'll mortgage the future of the franchise to draft this QB that looks like the kid the locals are really excited about who should be able to do big things on the varsity squad next year after running the JV team for a year to get his feet wet.

micah or Trey?

 

Because the Bengals defense was ass last year with him, I dont think he is making any team, much less ours "great".  

Micah is a different beast for sure but if reports are true there is already a deal with 2 firsts out there for him.   And if Morgan trades 2 first for Parsons................

Historically speaking, they sure seem less capable than many DIII programs. I really don't understand when Panthers fans pretend like this has been a competent organization. We've lost more games than any other team since Tepper bought this franchise. That's just the reality of the situation.

I'm not aware of any DIII programs that have any linemen in their 30s so I dont think thats the case

If his cap hits are spread evenly across 2026 and 2027, the 2026 OL will be over $85 mil in cap space, BTW.

 

Can't think of a better place to spend the money than there.
