he made it known he wanted out per Morgan, this was never going to end well for the panthers

No he didn't, he was perfectly happy here until the Vikings badly needed a WR and showed interest.

He didn't "want out" as you say, he just wanted this opportunity once it arose.

I still think we should have played hardball and demanded more for him, not because he was worth it in a trade, but because he was worth more to to our team than the return we got for him.

I mean you can sugarcoat it any way you choose but he wanted to go to Minny to play with a guy that has never started in the nfl.

 

why you want to argue this point is quite perplexing.  It was never going to end well for the panthers once AT wanted out

 

"It's kinda hard, when I sit Adam Thielen down in my office and he is just really wanting to go there and he's pretty adamant that 'this is what I want, this is where I want to go,' I didn't really want to stand in his way," Morgan told Kyle Bailey of WFNZ radio in Charlotte. "It was something that he was really convicted about. He wanted to go and finish his career there. Obviously he's from there, he has a house there, he has young kids. There's a human side to it, too."

False. He went out of his way to publicly praise the current rookie QB for the Vikings going as far as saying he could become the face of the league. This was back in early June. Something was brewing for awhile.

Trust me I get it if my wife was bugging me every day to move somewhere else I would do the same as AT. Point being, that isn’t the Panthers problem. Sorry dude go deal with your wife and take the millions of dollars we’re paying. Not doing your wife “a solid”

Hard to look good when you’re having to high-point balls at 12 feet in the air on screens behind the LOS because a guy who shouldn’t be in the NFL is throwing to you.

TBH, we’re lucky he decided to come back after that bullshit.

I'm rooting for Bryce but I can't lie he was bsing on his throws to Renfrow.

wish I could get fired from my job and get a raise afterwards because my bosses are incompetent

That happened to me once, hahaha

Because our agency's main client had huge layoffs, we had to have our own batch of them.  The agency really didn't think through who they were cutting and why, it was purely based on the department/team you worked in.

After a month, they called me and said they wanted me back in the same role but on another team.  I told them I was already getting interviews/offers for jobs/salaries much better than I had there as they should have given them to me years before.

In the end, I got a 2 title bump, a 20% raise, and started the day after my severance from the layoffs ended (which was sizable as I had been there 5 years).  So I got a big promotion and raise to get a free 6 week paid vacation before starting on the new team.

The problem was that I turned down a job that I knew I should have taken instead, as I knew it wasn't a good fit on that team for me.  But I was arrogant and liked knowing the whole office would know they had to give me a huge raise given my new title and I took it purely for that reason, and of course it then went exactly like I thought and I hated it.

      Not sure who said it first, but Tepper is the correct answer. Still, I'm gonna go with Kasay keeping it inbounds. If, you subscribe to the butterfly effect version of time travel consequences.... When we win SBXXXVIII everybody's lives change: Moose never breaks his leg, We win it all again in 05. Tommy Jone is unknown and Peppers stays home, Champs once more 2008. No artificial pig heart turning JR into a creepy weirdo, no lockout, no Clausen. Fox and Jake ride off into the sunset on their own terms. No 2-14, no #1 pick. But, no laptop, no Blinn, 3 years behind The Golden Calf of Bristol, we still get Cam. JR let's him grow his locs like he always wanted, Smitty sees Cam in a new light. Dreads swinging, (and Smitty with his 3 Lombardis behind him) Cam is old enough to get those calls. No Manning narrative, Cotchery TD, PI against Talib on Philly Brown, 10,000 RTP calls and Kony Ealy SB50 MVP. No Jeans Fridays, no Tepper. KB doesn't slip on his own meatsweat mid-route in SD, Cam becomes the 1st QB to win 10 straight SBs. Retiring after being elected 47th president of the US of A, Cam ushers in the Permanent Proletarian Revolution across the globe, Xi Jinping bows in awe. "ẄøŘƙƐṛ§ őF ŧĤə ŵØRłð, ŮŊÏŦƐ!!!"

      I mean not surprised the Patriots took him in and aren't trying to push him out. They've been the most morally bankrupt team in the NFL for a long while. Wouldn't be surprised if Vrabel has his own dirt on Kraft/Brady and other assholes from that organization over the last couple decades.
