just two men talking sports, nothing more. no need to put shanahan up on a pedestal and be overly respectful. i'm sure shanahan appreciates it.

From his perspective I imagine he doesn't care about the opinion of anyone that is not directly "in" football.

Anyway.

I don't know, of all the coaches to approach not related to the panthers. Shanahan? I would have kept walking.

only if he's a pompous prick. obviously he won't use these discussions to run his football team but why can't he just "chill" and talk sports?

Because that is what he does all day.

Do you like to talk about work all the time?

Why can't people understand that when these "stars" are "off work" they don't want to talk about some random persons opinion and what the public thinks the NFL is?

again, why are you putting him on a pedestal? he is your equal. every man (well, most) enjoys talking sports.

i understand not to hound them by asking for autographs/insider info/etc but there's nothing wrong with sitting there and debating sports topics like you would do with any other regular guy.

Actually, if you think about it, I am taking him off a pedestal.

He is just a man. When people are off work they often get asked the most ridiculous questions about their jobs and often hear the same things they have heard a million times.

Is my train of thought really that far out there? It is not about one instance either; can you imagine how many times per day he runs into the same issues?

it's not. we'll just agree to disagree i suppose.

would it be different if they started casually talking about basketball instead of football?

He's faster and more accurate than Cam. Maybe not as strong of and arm but RG3 still has a rocket no doubt. He's a much better passer than Vick was it this point in their careers, Vick is more shifty and Cam is much more powerful as runners but its a different offense RG3 will be working in. He will not be asked to take a pounding the way other so called "athletic" quarterbacks were. He's a passer 1st and foremost. Nevermind the speed. If he was as stiff in the pocket as Kerry Collins he still would have the skills to excel in the NFL. On the other hand reading defenses, speed of the game, staying healthy, we'll see.

Let's wait to see RG3 play in an NFL game before we start comparing him to Cam.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
