I posted this in another thread but people might really need to tone down their expectations of what we would get back https://nfltraderumors.co/nfc-notes-buccaneers-brian-burns-panthers/

I think he will always be middle of the pack at best there. Looking back to his last year at Baylor he went 0-3 vs ranked teams and won 5 games by 1 score. The big 10 is a lot better than the big 12 especially when they get rid of the east/west divisions next year. there is no way he is going to consisently beat Ohio St/Michigan/Penn St

threw an INT in the red zone at the end of the 1st half and then failed miserablly in the last 2 minutes of the 2nd half...hmm looks like they need to practice red zone and 2 minute drills. he clearly hasnt learned anything

Here is a list of WR FA from this year. Remember Hopkins wasnt released until after the draft too so he wasnt available at the start of FA. Not many great options out there. I still like Chark based on contract/potential even if he misses a few games.

So who should we have signed as a free agent instead?

WR by committee was always the plan. Stud WR1's dont sign 1 yr $5mm deals.

alright hear me out, lets sign him and Okwuegbunam and Kuntz plus keep our 5 TEs. Then we would just need 2 more TEs before we are set. We can run 10 TEs and Bryce out there....Super Bowl!!!

6 of them were in the 5-7th round where the odds of finding a quality player are much lower. but we still should have hit on at least 1 or 2 of them

What about the Choosen Anderson trade???? He clearly won that. Getting anything at all for him was a win. He convinced the Dolphins to give up a 7th rounder for Greg Little And while he swung and missed on Bridgewater he got a 6th round pick for him (better than nothing)

I just looked it up and they were 2-2

So 15 over and 15 under, assuming they were roughly equal amounts on each team O/U Vegas made a killing. They dont care that they were "wrong" by 2+ games on any given team all they care about is there is equal money on both sides. Vegas does not care who wins and losses (unless there is unequal money on one side which happens since it is almost impossible to get the exact equal money on both sides) They just put out numbers where they think equal money will be on both sides not what they think will happen.

Vegas doesnt use facts and the only metric they use is money. their goal is to have equal number of people on the over and the under so they can collect the vig. They set a line not based on facts or what they think will happen but on what they think other people will think will happen. So at 7.5 Vegas thinks there will be an equal number of people who think the Panthers will win 8 or more games as they do people who think they will win 7 or fewers games.

Remember the year the Lions went 0-16, they were 4-0 in the preseason.

One of the reasons Brady had more success in the playoffs is he cared more about winning then money unlike Rodgers. Brady took team friendly deals to help build the rest of the team where as Rodgers just wanted as much money as he could get then would complain about how poor the rest of the team was.

personally i'd rather see what Corral (who essentially had a redshirt year in a terrible environment but now has a good mentor in Dalton and good QB coaches) can do rather than a qb who is on his 6th team in 4 years and in his 3 career starts comitted 8 turnovers (granted it was his rookie year). Luton hasnt exactly lit it up in preseason either. last year he was 22/38 (58%) for 186 (4.9 YPA/8.6 YPC) 0 TD and 1 INT

The team will go 0-17 wont score a single point all year

Agreed there is no reason to get ride of Corral especially with the new rules where you can keep a 3rd qb on the inactive roster so he doesnt take up a roster spot

As mentioned before college already does it, they stil have the option to return it if they want. Also when was the last time you have seen a kickoff to the 18 and the returned not be able to pick up a few yards (without a fumble) so it not really that big of an advantage in my opinion. Now if they change the rules for punts that is completely different rule.

I happened to get tickets to the AFC Championship game in KC this past year and the place is deafening. Probably wouldnt be that loud for a Chiefs Panthers game given its not rivalry but it was insane how loud it was

How loud is it at Arrowhead Stadium? In 2014, Arrowhead Stadium set a Guinness World Record for its stadium noise against the New England Patriots. The fans were so loud that they registered the sound at 142.2 decibels. That’s louder than a jet plane taking off. https://www.foxweather.com/lifestyle/arrowhead-stadium-noise-loud-chiefs https://www.nbcsports.com/boston/patriots/what-are-loudest-nfl-stadiums

Its close but I'd take Kansas City over Seattle. KC took the record for loudest stadium from Seattle

while its true the odds are for the #1 pick, the report is that Levis is telling people the Panthers will take him #1 not just that he will go #1

Since when is Tepper responsible for the day to day construction of the football team. He seems like he wants to win. He has repeatedly said he wants a franchise QB (and before someone says it yes Cam WAS a franchise QB but when Tepper got here he was NOT a franchise QB. Injuries had taken a toll on him, if he was still a franchise QB he would be starting in NE or starting for SEA or WAS or HOU or some other team). He said he wasnt confident in Bridgewater and so he is gone. He is creating state of the art facilities. He pushed for Stafford and Watson. Stafford didnt want to come here and Watson has all the legal issues. Elite QBs dont grow on trees and are not easily available except through the draft. When those two didnt work out and it was clear Bridgewater wasnt the answer, what did you want them to do? Roll with PJ or Grier? Draft Fields and let him hold the ball forever behind this OL? Draft Jones? Or throw a hail mary and give Darnold a shot? In the last 2 years who do you want them to get? Outside of Stafford, they arguably went after the biggest name they could in each of the last 2 years (yes Brady and Rivers were available but no neither wanted to come here). And do you want him to start meddling in the football operations like Jerry Jones. I guarantee Tepper is not happy with how things are going. You can tell by the look on his face when the show him during games, but what other moves at QB would you have made if you were him
