problem is those would be attractive options from our vantage point. got to think they would be looking at DL. And more Burns or Brown than YGM.

earlier reports, were they also in talks to deal Tua . It just wasn’t to the Texans. There were 3 teams involved if Miami were to land Watson.

The Jets and Houston are two of the worst teams in the NFL and had rookies making their NFL debut. The other game? The Saints had been displaced by a hurricane. Suffered a ton of injuries they were having to adjust for from the prior week…and had a ton of their coaching staff out. and now we aren’t playing rookies in their debut game or some oddity like the Saints were under this isn’t like Teddy. We were in every game minus the when we played the eventual Super Bowl champs. And everyone on offense nearly had a career season.

And what does this have to do with what I said? most impactful - Cam, 89 best football player - Pep/Luke, 89

Ok. Didn’t say he was. Cam was the most impactful though. 89 didn’t draw folks or make us nationally relevant to the nation like Cam. So Cam is the most impactful. For many reasons… his role, load and MVP on a Carolina level and then what he did for us on the national stage. I think Luke and Peppers were better actual football players. 89 3rd, more entertaining because of position, trash talk, and after the whistle/play antics

All I know, is I want the Panther offer to leak out in the end. Got to know what that is

your fantasy is still alive guys…

I think it was reasonable and I endorsed us doing the same that just happened with Trubisky. Throw him on a roster for a couple years and tinker with him and see… but making Sam the dude was always crazy. And frankly, Rhule doesn’t have defense for Sam and the way it went. If you were even thinking of starting him you had to go get legit comp from day 1.

I think 89 is the fanbases collective favorite of all time. I don’t think he was actually the best player to put on pads here. Top 3. Nor the most impactful. Top 2.

He plays QB and can’t do that…so why does it even matter

The Masked Singer?

but then point becomes when Sam actually has what he needs and everyone does their job….Sam fails out of belief everything won’t work out. and that’s why he should be backup somewhere working out all his flaws. As this is just one of them.

lol. Yes, you did properly fix the typo.

In fairness, l’m sure they have worked on a lot of them. But they can’t be expected to fix all his in an offseason….and have him behind that OL. the claim they were going to fix him never was believable. You can’t fix a broken QB behind a bad OL.

Well as he points out. That isn’t what is actually happening on all these plays he is referencing. It’s Sam out of whack. And the right throw doesn’t happen. And if it does, it’s then late and wrong since Sam isn’t in sync with anything. The playcall works. But Sam is so out of whack he can’t make it work. He just fugs the works up. and you basically are defending Sam for playing poorly because of the belief of what could of happened. That didn’t. And it was just him in the end being bad. So it’s faulting the OL when they do their job It’s why the right call was always for him to be sitting somewhere like Trubisky. To see if his game can ever develop be fixed to get back on the field.

maybe they can explain why they added CJ, Gilmore, etc.....and not someone like Menshew then. In on every deal, right?

could be more than football. Miami just a more attractive place to be for him. He is young and single. All his family and past would be super close to him here. Easy driving distance to him. Everyone doesn't want to go back home (ish).

What if the NFL actaully greenlights they won't suspend Watson this season at least unless something new emerges. Carolina offers a mega deal. Hou takes it to him. Watson is like, nah...I don't like the looks of Rhule and what is going on. lol.

There is one today in NY. The WFT/Gruden stuff probably will be a hotter topic than Watson.

Worth a listen. Talks about how Sam just gets out of sync with plays and makes them look bad. *apologies in advance for this not being another Watson thread.

The NFL doesn't care if those guys ever play a snap again.

the NFL doesn't give a poo about Watson. It still chews guys like him up and spits them out with ease. They aren't hurting without him playing.

well, that's why Teddy's game was just to play small ball. And Teddy was a good small ball QB between the 20s.

easier to drive up the price on Miami's offer when you have someone else precieved in the deal. if it's only Miami, it becomes a straight up take it or leave it offer.

we have the worst OL in the NFL. We can only threaten so much of the field realistically because of that. and yes, Sam Darnold is horrible at reading a field and progressing. The right throws come and go. And yeah, people then get covered. That's the NFL. Windows close. He is slow with it. And when he does find something he too often isn't on time getting it out...... It's why he is a downgrade from Teddy. Teddy could read the field and get it out to the right guy on time. Teddy can move on from the first read before the ball touches his hands. Sam basically has to have his first read come open....and if it doesn't you basically have 50/50 of horrible Sam living up to his name. and you could google and find artcles from this weekend that break that fact down. and you can find people doing that throught his long career. that's what he is.
