Graphic from Panthers reddit.

I too think he should've been kept, more so after that deal was declined. It's a premium position, and your team either has the ability or they don't. There is not really an inbetween. Doesn't matter any now though, and that's fine too. Not my money, not my choices to make.

I am of the opinion that in the long run it doesn't matter. I know it kind of sticks in the craw about passing up the 2 first rounders for him, only to not sign him, and ultimately ship him out for less, but I am confident we would've spent those picks on stupid poo anyway. It's what we do.

13 sacks on the year so far. Half of those came against the Jets. NFL.com has us ranked 26th overall. We are probably good then, right?

Not paying Burns is 1 thing. Attempting to bolster the pass rush with nobodies and has-beens is a completely different matter unfortunately. Maybe we should draft another wr?

They shouldn't pick up his option, but it would be prudent to expect them to do exactly that. Dalton needs to be released. Beyond that, there are some names on that list that may not be a bad short-term investment. I don't know that any should be viewed as a long-term solution. It would be surprising if Jones isn't held on to by Indy.

Dalton last posted a winning record in-season in 2015. His fall-off is not recent or new.

That will make for a little extra salt in getting beaten. On the bright side, at least it's not those god-awful Steeler bumblebee uniforms from several seasons back.

Mutually assured destruction.

Remember when the fear was he would be so good that he would be snapped up for a head coaching spot after the 1st year? Good times. The only team stupid enough to want him is us.

While I agree he should have the opportunity to select his own qb, following that does he then get the standard 3 years? New regimes mean new qbs. No coach should tie his future to someone they didn't actually pick. For whatever reason, Canales has done just that. Whether it is being strong armed by Tepper, or overwhelming hubris that he could be successful with Young, it sure seems he has now made his bed.

I spend much of my time there down voting stupidity, and there is an over abundance of Bryce-promotion and Bryce-pedestaling. I like to think maybe they are just younger, less knowledgeable fans, but that might just be wishful thinking.

It seems like "official" boards have gone extinct. The Bucs long ago had a fairly lively and decent board but it was temporarily closed mid-Gruden era and never returned. Falcons official board closed up shop about 2 or 3 seasons ago now.

40ish to 10ish Packers. They are 1 of the best, most complete teams in the NFL. We are not.

Reddit is fine. Been there for years. The issue with Reddit is more along the lines of maintaining decorum, good online manners, and being generally a nice person, even in the face of absolute stupidity from other posters. Don't let the trolls and idiots get under your skin, and don't overreact from down votes. As far as quality of discussions, it is very mixed, and overall, it is easier to be a Bryce Young fan there right now.

Could be worse. Yes, it is a real product.

Any given Sunday of course, but the Packers game should be another 40ish-10ish beatdown.

Wasn't David Tepper 1 of the minority owners leading the charge to can him? Might have just been rumor, but I recall hearing something about it back then.

It's what we do.

Like the deal we made to get Henderson from the Jags.

This is the David Tepper Panthers, and marks must be made. Besides, we are only a player or 2 away. Max.

I know this is an emotional time coming off a bad loss. But, think about what we could turn that 4th (possibly/hopefully) round pick into this spring. We could land a slow linebacker with little game awareness. Or we could select a raw pass rusher that never produced results in college, but had great metrics at the combine. Just think of the possibilities!

The funny thing is the last year Dalton had a winning record was 2015. We didn't need to get a better qb in here. We have Andy fuging Dalton and his losing record for the past 10 seasons. What could possibly go wrong?

Turn that frown upside down. Lots of football to play. Panthers are 4-4! They could run the table and get on an even bigger win streak than they were on.

Nah, they will raid a practice squad or sign dummies off the street for replacement linemen.
