Super Bowl winners the last several years largely dispel this notion. Quarterback is the rare weapon that can't be replaced. How far do we have to go back to find a star face of the franchise running back that helped carry his team to a title? Marshawn Lynch with the Seahawks? That was eight years ago and you'll have to go back even further to Bettis in 2005 to find another. More over those teams invested in the trenches and built stout o lines. But those days are moving further and further away because of rules benefiting passing games now.

NFL fines Washington Football Team $10 million
frankw replied to ladypanther's topic in Carolina Panthers
Snyder must have some dirt on somebody. -
Who is saying he is a problem? From the sound of it you have too much emotion tied up in one player. As you say it is a team game. So when you invest a top 10 draft pick and a significant chunk of your salary cap in what has become a luxury position as much as we hate to admit eventually other areas of our roster suffer this is basics of team building. Young talented wide receivers and pass rushers are highly coveted in the league currently I dont think the comparison you are grasping for is helping your argument. And Chinn was in the running for defensive rookie of the year. That was an impressive season but I would wager CMC would have rather had lesser numbers and a winning record. It is not rude or an attack on McCaffrey or anyone else to suggest we should play better in our division and start chipping away at this hole we have dug ourselves.

It's going to be exciting to see this defense go to work. But they might be on the field as much as they were last year again by the looks of the current o line. Le sigh.

Panthers RT Taylor Moton named one of NFL's top 11 offensive tackles
frankw replied to SBBlue's topic in Carolina Panthers
Can't argue with any of this. Seen this story play out enough times over the last several years. It's "Moton" btw. -
He'll get what the market dictates but the market is reset frequently. The floor for a top tackle is already pricey whether he stays on the right or makes a switch. Panthers fans might want to get this hometown discount vibe out of their heads.
-
Panthers are past the point of blinking on working something out with Moton in a timely manner. They are now in a corner. He can all but name his own price.

It isn't like Olsen called anyone out he was just open about the situation rather than giving a company line. Guys play for other teams it happens. It bothered me as much as seeing Thomas Davis in a Chargers jersey ie very little. Both players were clearly done anyway. Seeing Newton in a Patriots jersey doesn't bother me either. Plenty of well known Panthers who were involved in success with this franchise have worn other jerseys. Life goes on.

Panthers PJ Waker Ranked 25 Among NFL Backup Quarterbacks
frankw replied to KatsAzz's topic in Carolina Panthers
Bridgewater isn't the worst qb but it isn't a question he lacked arm strength on the deep passes. I certainly can't recall him overthrowing our speedsters last year. -
The microaggressions he was subjected to were exhausting. He made games fun to watch and that translated to his teammates despite some observers wanting as often as possible to detach him from that natural joy that he played with. He detested losing so much so that it sometimes got the best of him but it cannot be disputed that he changed the culture for the better. He carried that mentality with him in the years that followed even as some fans and the local media were practically kicking and screaming about changed norms along the way. If Carolina can recapture anything like that again soon we will be very lucky.
-
Yep. Both teams had only 3 wins by week 10. By stroke of luck or a little tanking sprinkled in they finished on a 5 game losing streak and outdueled us for worst. I guess that's a silver lining if you are that hard up for a little optimism
-
Well the good news is there is nowhere to go but up. Still waiting for that left tackle though...

25-and-under defenders who generated the most total pressures in 2020
frankw replied to SBBlue's topic in Carolina Panthers
If he continues at this pace and can stay healthy he will easily approach 30 million per year on his upcoming contract. Better capitalize on that rookie deal now.
