Thigpen to Carolina??? THINK about IT!


Tar Heel Blues

Recommended Posts

Thigpen did amazingly actually, he was overshadowed by Flaco and Ryan because he came on late.

yea he did good towards the end of the year, after they removed the pro set offense almost completely and went to a shotgun offense. Same as Cassel, isn't good dropping back from behind center.

I have no idea how good Tyler Thigpen will be or how good he could be on this team. I'll leave that up to the experts.

I will point out that many thought Delhomme and Kurt Warner would end up being career backups. At the same time many on here also said that Carr would play good in Carolina once he had a good o-line and more talent around him.

I got to watch a bunch of KC games last year and this guy is insane accurate and he did it with out a lot of talent surround him. Imagine him throwing bombs to STEVE SMITH and handing off to Double Trouble all day long. I think we'd average 30 ppg with him.

KC Still has their #3 overall pick and they need a pass rusher to replace Jared Allen. YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING. We might need to toss in a 3rd rounder to make it fair and square but Thigpen + #3 overall for Peppers and a 3rd or 4th would be straight cash homey. Think about it. :patriot:

We averaged over 30 points per game over the last six or seven games of the regular season with Jake. So....

Where's the advantage of changing something that worked so well?

I am standing by prediction that the Panthers will go after Kyle Boller

McCown is better than Boller.

Honestly I wouldn't take Boller over Matt Moore.

(Tedford QBs about always stink in the NFL, same as June Jones guys but for different reasons)

Worked so well until he went up against that vaunted ARIZONA CARDINALS defense. Also struggled against the mighty OAKLAND RAIDERS and DETROIT LIONS. If it wasn't for prepare for trouble/make it double J "delicous" Stew and De-Looooo williams the only quarterbacking Jake would be doing would be from his armchair. And he would be third string. Jake wouldn't even have the self-confidence to draft himself in his own fantasy league, and Jake plays in one of those whacky leagues where you start 3 quarterbacks.

I think what I'm trying to say is THIGPEN '09: CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN :patriot:

i agree that we need to think about bringin in a young qb to start grooming to be the starter in a couple of years. although i still think moore can get the job done. but IMO the suggestions of trading peppers for thigpen or cutler or any other qb is not a good idea. yes jake had realy bad playoff game. we all know it. and he knows it. but jake is our qb and for the most part hes done a pretty good job at it. we are a run first team and we have a running game that is maybe the best in the nfl. if we trade peppers it needs to be for draft picks to improve our d or players to improve our d. but if we could somehow get him and it not keep us from improving our d which is the biggest need we have. then i would be all for having him coming in and playing behind jake for a year or maybe two before taking over

    • I truly do not understand why we rushed him back last season, we were a bad team with an already productive back in Chuba. Brooks looked like he was 60% back and clearly hadn’t regained full movement in his knee and confidence, no surprise he got reinjured. Shame on this training staff, look no further then Chuba returning too soon this season, I don’t care how bad a player wants to come back a training staff is there to protect them. Brooks is a great person and was an amazing player prior to both injuries, I hope he’s recovering well.
    • Brother thanks for sharing and all. Just for a 21 year army guy you sure over used your brain power on this interaction little too much...  Not that's Im taking a side or nothing, Ive never been a bully fan * in extreme deals bullying in needed..... I've heard from smart people in and around Panthers, Smitty needed Angie for guidance BADLY.  I've honestly thought if Smitty was born 20 years later, he should have taken a MMA path and not only would he have been a champion but a humbled good man with or without Angie helping him. He has never took off the enmoureous chip on his shoulder and it has branched off as a stick in arse over time too. Still everyone can not be or act the same with emotions, we are chemical sacks of water and bones. He reminds me of brain-washed individuals that can not turn off the switch. Plus he is high on thinking he's smarting than he is.......its a dangerous combo, but that's mainly what gave him the edge in life to live out the American dream......soooo I dare say change, but its sad at the same time. All those poor women that get involved with narcissistic disloyal men, one of the few times I agree to take what ever form them in court...
    • Completely agreed.  TBH, we have had so many great players that are in my favorite list, and I hate to narrow it down to one, but Cam is it.  Which is crazy, because you would think it would be more of the guys I grew up watching, but no.  Cam was the single most impactful player to ever out on a football uniform imo.  And like I said in an earlier post, I always felt a kinship with him in a lot of ways…  the way he was treated and judged for the off the field stuff in Florida and having to overcome all of that and fight show at back.  And although I am not a black man, I have always been welcomed by and accepted more by minorities, and thus, I know what it’s like to be judged by appearances rather than the content of your character and who you actually are.  I know what it’s like to be stereotyped and written off or mistreated for your mistakes.  I know what it’s like to be held to a different standard while your peers don’t have to meet that same standard.  So I always related to that.  And the way he came in and just electrified the whole franchise, man…  I still think about it often how much it sucks that because of how talented he was, our staff out so much on him and that ultimately cut his career short.  You’re right, there will never be another Cam…  I think Josh Allen is the closest thing we will see for a long time, but Allen is not the running threat Cam was.  Cam could run you over or around you.  That was THE absolute funnest time to watch our team ever.
