Mobile QBs = Panther's D-Line > Standard Pocket QB

After watching today's game, it confirms what most of us thought after seeing our D perform against the Seahawks.  In that game, if it weren't for Russell Wilson's mobility, we would have put up a bunch of sacks. (And we probably would have shut them out)  In week two, the D-line wasn't as good, but again we went up against a somewhat mobile QB in EJ Manuel.  Today, we went up against your more standard stationary QB.  We lit Eli up.  So with that in mind, when we play Matt Ryan and Drew Brees, we should dominate them for big victories.  I'm mad at the way we wasted those first two games, but I believe this defense will win us a bunch of games this season in pretty big fashion.

You might be on to something here. I always thought the advantage Cam and the panthers had over other team was his dynamic play making ability. Then all of sudden the league balloon with those types which kind of offset that edge when we play those types. I think the giant defensive players said the same thing after they played the redskins last year. Luckily our division doesn't have any thus we can feast for a little while.

Honestly?  Our secondary also played better.  As did our linebackers.  Overall the defense had a superior performance I think.

Do you say thing just to get pie?

I like the sound of feasting.  Matty Ice (aka Vanilla Ice) already experienced the pain of facing Hardy and CJ before, and now we have Star and Short to add to the mix.  There's one thing I will say about Rivera, he's built a defense that can dominate this division.  Yet then again, two of them were Fox's players and everyone would have picked up Lotulelei.  So I'll give Ron credit for picking up Kawaan Short, and of course coaching all these guys.

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
