Carolina Panthers: Saint Francis' Nightmare


Gucci Mane

Recommended Posts

The Panthers will travel all the way to the left coast to face a 6-2 49ers team coming off of their bye week. Panthers players are in for a delightful trip, even outside of their contractual duties to play the game of football. Arriving to the city, they will get to witness famous sights such as the bridge featured in the Full House intro, or the trolly cars that laugh in the face of mass-transit innovation. The culture and overall atmosphere to San Fransisco should take no time in making itself present. Its quite likely the players will step off the plane and be instantly greeted with a whiff of that crisp northern Californian air with little hints of silicon and medicinal marijuana before making their way to the bay area, where the 49ers currently call home.

 

This will be the Panthers final trip to Candlestick Park as the 49ers will relocate to Santa Clara, a feeble attempt to get as far away from Raiders fans as financially possible. The stadium has already housed many of the game's greats, and if you ask certain ESPN talking heads, is currently housing the greatest 49er team since the pre-injured Alex Smith-led 49ers of yesteryear. Candlestick Park doesn't have much wax left on the wick, and Riverboat Ron and company are coming in on fire, so i expect us to burn the stadium one last time and leave the citizens of San Fransisco disgusted that a Bicep-Kissing QB and an Alcoholic Felon ever donned Scarlett and Gold.

 

Panthers 34-24

I applaud your attempt, but you made no mention of the absurd amounts of homeless people, the apparently horribly constructed misnomer of a bridge they're known for, full house, and that crappy 3rd Xmen movie.

 

Not to mention that Crack consumption in "The City" is as nonchalant and acceptable as saying hello to a neighbor here in the Carolina's.

    • In my opinion Fitterer was probably right about not paying McCaffrey. Now not wanting to "pay RBs" in my opinion isn't something you want to set in stone, to me it all comes down to the individual.
    • Maybe I'm just not understanding, but everywhere that I have read says that signing bonuses go against the cap prorated by as much as five years. The following example uses Andrew Luck's rookie contract as an example. "Take Andrew Luck, the first overall pick in the 2012 NFL draft. Luck signed a four-year contract with the Colts worth $22.1 million and included a $14.5 million signing bonus. Rather than a $14.5 million cap hit in 2012, the Colts spread out his signing bonus over the life of his contract. The hit against the cap would be $3.625 million per year over four years instead of a direct cap hit of $14.5 million directly in 2012. This gave the Colts more leverage and cap flexibility in signing other players." https://www.the33rdteam.com/nfl-signing-bonuses-explained/ I don't know why some of you think that signing bonuses aren't counted against the cap over the length of the contract, but whatever.   "The bonus with a signing is usually the most garish aspect of a rookie contract. Bonus is the immediate cash players receive when they ink a deal. It factors into the cap, but only for the whole contract duration, in terms of salary cap calculations. In the case of Bryce Young’s $24.6 million signing bonus, that’s prorated to approximately $6.15 million per season over a four-year deal. This format allows teams to handle the cap and provides rookies with some short-term fiscal stability, which is important given the high injury risk in this league." https://collegefootballnetwork.com/how-rookie-contracts-work-in-the-nfl/ I understand how signing bonuses can be a useful tool in order to manage the cap, and as one of the article suggests, signing bonuses may become important if you have a tight cap, but the bill is always going to come due. I'm not necessarily referring to you Tuka, but it seems to me that others simply don't want to understand that fact which is why they're reacting to what I'm saying negatively. How odd. In any event, I have a better general understanding of why signing bonuses are used now, and it's generally to fit salaries under the cap. Surely players, whether they be rookies or not, love a signing bonus because they get a good portion of their money up front. This in turn gives them more security and probably amounts to tax benefits as well. I also understand why teams would not want to use signing bonuses, particularly for players or draftees who have a higher probability of being gone before a contract even ends.
