Hangman officially leaves Buffalo.

Per WGR55 in Buffalo, he has left and headed home. Wow! This guy was a top target for Buffalo and I guess for some reason couldn't sign him. Hurney better get his agent on the phone pronto before he schedules more visits and see if we can get him back here.

I will say this, per buffalo's FA history...if a first day FA leaves, they dont' sign with the team. So apperantly something went south.

Maybe they didn't think he was good enough.

No, he was #2 from what I was told to be their new Center. Saturday was #1. What does it say when the new top target to start at center for you, after being a career backup, leaves.

Wow, things are much worse in Buffalo than people know apperantly. Oh well...maybe he will come back here.

I figure he is not going to commit to any one team unless he has explored his options. At 27 he is going to get one maybe 2 big paychecks. He needs to explore his options. I hope one of those is returning here if we will match the price. Of course starting is important. But so is winning. I wonder how much we want to keep him. We will find out shortly I suspect.

They are looking at Matt Birk.

Odd. Gantt is saying he never even made it :confused:

Hangartner hanging out

Panthers free agent Geoff Hangartner's trip to Buffalo hasn't gone as planned.

Mostly, because he hasn't gotten there yet.

Hangartner left from Austin, Tex., first thing this morning, and 12 hours later, was sitting in the airport in Chicago waiting for yet another connection attempt. He said he's already had two flights canceled, and isn't sure when or if he's getting there.

Once he arrives, expect the Bills to offer him a starting job and more money than the Panthers can match. Even if he doesn't sign there, it sounds like there are enough suitors to make his return here extremely unlikely.

    • Well even if we took diverging paths getting there...our overall assessment of Shough is the same (bolded) lol so I guess that's what matters.  What you call "playing at a level that looks like a veteran starter" is the same thing I'm referencing when I talk about his poise.  Although I still wonder how truly "bad" of a team the Saints are.  Their defense is middle-of-the-road, and their offense does have some good pieces (Olave, Juwan Johnson) outside of running back which is the position most everyone agrees is relatively plug-and-play.  I'm not going to pretend to know anything about the majority of NFL team's o-lines lol but I'm assuming Saints are not great there, although Shough's pressure % seems to have been quite low (and steadily improving) over the last four weeks (20 -> 16.7 -> 15.0 -> 13.0) so maybe they've been playing better as of late, or perhaps Shough himself deserves credit for that.   Some of the language I'm hearing about Shough, including talking about how he's way above league average in several categories, makes it sound like Shough is having a rookie season on par with like a CJ Stroud who established himself as basically a Top 5-10 QB his rookie season.  Maybe that's on me though, I don't mean to attribute anything to you that I'm sure you don't agree with.
    • Since your being selective (and somewhat deceptive) with your comparisons, I'll throw this up so we can compare apples to apples. Both Young and Shough have played against the Rams. Young went: 15/20 (75%) for 191 yards, 3 TDs, 0 INTs with a 147.1 QB rating Shough went: 15/24 (62.5%) for 176 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT with a 81.2 QB rating   Both Young and Shough have played against the Buccs. Young went: 21/32 (65%) for 206 yards, 2 TDs, 0 INTs with a 102.5 QB rating Shough went: 13/20 (65%) for 176 yards, 0 TD, 1 INT with a 65.4 QB rating   Both Young and Shough have played against the Falcons. Young went: 31/45 (75%) for 448 yards, 3 TDs, 0 INTs with a 123.2 rating Shough went: 30/43 (69.7%) for 243 yards, 0TD, 1 INT with a 74 QB rating   Seriously, in what world is Shough a better QB.
    • Freddie? For this game? Seriously? I don’t get it. Hope we get the best version of Freddie tonight.
