Panthers punter is not amused by jersey number talk

Newton's a rookie. He should take whatever number they have available, and feel fortunate that he is getting paid a lot of money to play a game.

He should. He also answered a question honestly about the number when asked. I think everyone makes a bigger deal about things because there is nothing else going on.

The collective iq of the huddle took a major hit from the panthers drafting cam.

This I will agree with completely.

But to the topic, Baker is one of the most consistent performers on the entire team. I have spent many games on the sidelines and the guy never sits down, never stops moving, and takes his job very seriously.

If he gives up #7 I doubt he will give a sh-t about it but I hope he gets rewarded handsomely. Something with Swiss Movement at a minimum.

i have a solution but JR has to give in a little too. Cam get 2. Jimmy gets 7. Baker gets 1 cuz he was the MVP last year. Literally.

Punter salary/number of plays on the field = cheapest team member.

solution is even easier than that.

after TC and preseason when it is obvious Jimmy ain't worth taking up a roster spot b/c of the type scheme Chud runs we just cut Jimmy and give him a chance in an offense he fits. Cam/vet/Moore.

Everyone is happy.

Whoever can dig up the ACTUAL most ridiculous thing ever posted here gets unlimited pie from me for every post that I see them make until football starts. I'm here daily, and read almost every thread. I can't guarantee pie on posts I don't see, but otherwise it's yours. The rest of the huddle can vote for the winner by using a majority pie vote system. Requires quote and link to original thread.

Inset NotAwesomeness thread here....

Then why does he not want to give up his Jersey? Kinda hypocritical there.

Better question why should he have to give up his jersey so an unproven rookie can get someone else's jersey...

Not sure he has said exactly that yet.

"No intention of giving up his number"is just the way the writer made it sound more controversial when they did not have an actual quote.

the way I saw it anyway

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
