We should also remember how Jon handled Luke coming in here and taking his spot.  He could not have handled that situation with more class. 

 

I look forward to the day Beason has his number retired here.

 

Not a chance that Beason's number gets retired.  He did not do enough to come close to warranting that honor.

Meh, I felt worse after Pep left.

 

Peppers didn't want to be here for the long haul. He made that clear.

 

For me, it's always tougher to see guys leave who really love their team and their city and want to play there forever. I wish Beason could retire a Panther, but this is the nature of the business. Simply put, Beason signed a big contract, got banged up and is losing his role on this team.

I talked to Beason after he was first moved to OLB a few years ago.  He was positive and upbeat.  Then he sang Luke's praises and accepted a lesser role. 

 

He was with Davis throughout his rehab.

 

Beason will be better in the middle, but I have to wonder how his body has held up through several years of the pounding a MLB gets. 

 

I hope he fires that Defense up in NY and takes it to the Saints, Falcons, and Bucs.  He will bring them knowledge and leadership.

I'm glad for him to get a shot, something that wasn't going to happen here.

 

 

Great player his first few years.

 

No trouble off the field.

 

Class act when transitioning Luke into his spot.

 

Took a paycut so something like this could happen.

 

Long term he helped the team.

 

This is exactly what I would have hoped to do in Beasons and DG's spot.

 

Good luck Jon.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
