Exactly. Anybody thinking this is truly a five year deal or truly a $42 million deal is way off base.

rem..hurney said..that jake has a young arm..and this deal will make him farve age..so it could be possible this deal is for him to start his entire contract.

Again, not to belabor the point, but I'm sure that the tens of thousands of people unable to find work in the Charlotte area (including Panthers employees that were laid off this season) will be very pleased to hear this news.

new and kind of funny (in a sick way) of complaining about jake getting a new contract.

didn't see that one coming.

i wonder how many other ones there will be?

silly...

What does one have to do with the other?

The Panthers have money to throw millions of dollars to someone that did the playoff quarterback equivalent of those Domino's employees blowing snot and farting on those pizzas in Conover, yet they can't afford to keep the employees that make something like $40,000/yr?

cap move, anyone not happy about this is a fool

ditto.

Here's my one and only take on the Jake discussion. I have never bit on any of those threads He is an average quarterback. Any one that says he is great is delusional. Anyone that says he is garbage is delusional. Most of the time he does what the offense asks him to do. Every QB has a few bad games each season.

So here's my way of determining Jake's relative position. Here are all the starting QBs in the league - sorry if I missed any, and obviously things are in flux in some places. I'm adding Stafford and Sanchez to the list, and just putting "Bucs starter" since I wouldn't trade Jake for any of those QBs. So look at the list and consider which QBs you would trade Jake for straight up (considering talent, age, etc). If I didn't say "yes" immediately, I marked them as "No, I wouldn't trade Jake straight up."

Drew Brees Y

Tom Brady Y

Peyton Manning Y

Philip Rivers Y

Aaron Rodgers Y

Kurt Warner N

Tony Romo N

Jay Cutler N

Donovan McNabb N

Carson Palmer Y

Matt Cassel N

Matt Schaub N

Matt Ryan Y

Ben Roethlisberger Y

Eli Manning Y

Matt Hasselbeck N

Kyle Orton N

Trent Edwards N

Joe Flacco Y

Chad Pennington N

David Garrard N

Shaun Hill N

Jason Campbell N

JaMarcus Russell N

Brady Quinn N

Marc Bulger N

Sage Rosenfels N

Daunte Culpepper/Matthew Stafford N

Kerry Collins N

Kellen Clemens/Jets starter N

Marc Sanchez N

There are ten QBs that I'd absolutely trade Jake for - and of course, this isn't supposed to be realistic. It's just a hypothetical. (I know, I know, that's the most hated word on this forum)

So as it turns out, I value him a little more than I thought. I expected to have 14-16 QBs on the list, and probably would with some of the "maybes."

In the great words of Coach Fox, he is what he is. An average QB. And that's fine with me. You can't have a pro bowler at every position. And I'm pretty happy with how this team is developing.

It's fun to watch people freak out over nothing.

Seriously.

If you didn't expect this, you were clueless.

If you think it's a true "extension" as opposed to a cap move, you don't understand contracts.

If you think Jake is a terrible QB or that one game means he should never play again, you have no sense of reality and watch no football other than Panthers games.

I'm betting it is heavily laden with performance incentatives so the chances of him getting paid in full are slim (unless a couple of Super Bowl appearances are invloved and then I doubt many will complain anymore).

    • He talks way too much about his time in Seattle and Russell Wilson and how they built that team in 2012.   I won’t fall for any of it until I see them play for a year 
    • Lol people like you are so silly and the only reason I seem to care to log on to post these days. How can you sit there and say Bryce was the reason Williams hurt his knee on that play. Maybe it's because you dislike Bryce so you are somewhat blind as to what actually happened? Not quite sure but maybe you should get your eyes checked. Williams hurt himself by trying to make a cut after spinning around to make that catch. Pause it at 3:24. Had he landed and ran like normal instead of going to plant his foot in the ground and make a cut he doesn't get hurt. Don't put that on Bryce. That was 100% Williams fault he got injured
