The riskiest decision we could make right now is giving another massive wad of guaranteed money to an over 30 OT who is battling chronic knee issues who is still under contract this year.

If loyalty is worried about Moton having a all pro season, then fleecing us for more then 40 million he may want to investigate this thing we have called "the franchise tag".   Its a new invention that I believe we have used before.....hmmm...I wonder on who

Odd take, "yeah it worked out fine for the guy we paid and the team we traded him to, us not so much, but you are dumb anyway"

 

Damn dude dont ever change

We've been talking about contract.  The contract wasn't stupid by any stretch.  His play on the field since he signed it is proof.  The trouble you're having is separating his contract and play on the field with the Panthers handling and trade of him afterwards.

I 100% think it was dumb to trade him.  I understand the thinking but I would still much rather have kept him.

I'm personally happy that we extended him.  

There has been no on field issues do to these knee issues that wouldn't have been even public knowledge.  

He's not being paid for what he's done in the past. He's been paid what he's worth to retain another 3 seasons. 

you are all over that cmac ext thread as well, fits you like a glove praising this and that one, I probably would lay low for bit

First of all, we have an offense. Any decent QB can thrive with our O-line, WRs and RBs. Secondly, you don't get better on offense by trading away one of the top five receivers in the league. Thirdly, their FO was crap. Lastly, we're not going about business in a way that's assuming Bryce Young isn't the answer. 

If any decent QB can thrive then why are the top 16 highest paid players and 17 of the top 20 all QBs?

Ask them if they're worth two 1sts when you might not have a QB. 

We do have a QB. Furthermore, Ray Lewis won with Trent Dilfer. Lawrence Taylor won with Phil Simms and Jeff Hostetler. Peppers almost won with Jake Delhomme. It doesn't take an elite QB to win a Super Bowl, it takes an elite team, or at least a good one catching lightning in a bottle.

Obviously, the QB is the highest paid position for a reason. Historically, pass rushers are the second highest paid players for a reason

Pro tip, if your examples are from 20 and 35 years ago its probably not the best example

Yeah, let's wait and pay the franchise tag next year of around 27 million and paint ourselves into a corner with no leverage if we wanted to extend him that 2nd year.  I like signing him now for 22 per year for 2 years.  That cheaper and smarter all the way around.

      Night before the game

      I don't know; I think it's close for the first half and if it gets ugly it'll be in the second half.

      The thing is, I feel like last Sunday validated what I have been saying about Bryce.  And this is why I'm somewhat optimistic. He isn't a good QB, let me make that clear before the brigade storms into this thread, but the biggest difference between Bryce before last week and Bryce in the second half of last season was his lack of confidence and willingness to make plays downfield.  Last week was the first time this season he's had that "F It" mentality, the same he had when he came back last year when he just looked and played care-free (in a good way; he had a positive energy).  We need him to keep that energy the rest of the season because if he does, we can win games. It ain't always about being good.  Hell Jameis Winston isn't good (better than Bryce, but still), but he plays with such a confidence that his teams always have a chance.   If Bryce is down to be as aggressive as he was last week, I think the opportunities will be there against a weak and injured 49ers defense.

      I don't have a great feeling about this game, but after last night I have a real good feeling about our chances to win the division. I think we might actually have a fair amount of wiggle room if Baker is out for an extended period of time, especially if he misses one or both of the games against us. 9-8 could very well win the NFC South this year. Hell, depending on how long Mayfield is out I wouldn't be shocked to see 8-9 win it.
