To free up cap space

How is this any different than signing Reddick, Jones, and Fox last offseason? Yeah, they were solid signings at the time. But what did it do for us? A 5-win season and they all ended up leaving this offseason. Yes he's a good player but this is such a pointless signing. Feels like every offseason we sign some "solid" DL to a short contract and it does nothing for us. Fire Matt Rhule.

Bruh, the starting QB is Sam Darnold.

But why? WHY DONT WE JUST FREAKIN TANK?

Johnny Bets is our lord and savior

Oh snap

KEEP POUNDING BABY

We're still in!

We should tank with Darnold

Cam is terrible.

Mayfield has his problems but he'd easily beat out Darnold To be honest depending on what the Browns would be asking for, I'd be cool with Mayfield as QB.

WOW

I'm cool on the internet for the day.

NVM HES GOING TO ATLANTA

That is being reported nowhere yet. I'd wait a bit before believing a meeting has been scheduled. Schefter is quoted as saying it is a long shot but that they are interested. They may just be inquiring.

He?

In what world would this be smart

Falcons have less to offer than the Panthers and quite frankly if it wasn't for Matt Ryan, they would be a much worse team.

Right lol Watson is a borderline elite QB. Hayward was a solid NBA player who had a really strong couple of seasons.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hn_q_qK5jac Remember when Watson went toe-to-toe with Brees and the Saints? When's the last time we saw a QB put up that kind of performance vs the Saints? 2015 Cam? Ya'll think we can just easily find a QB who can make a play like Watson did on that final touchdown? Taking a blind-side hit, pocket collapsing in front of him (this is for those who think our OL would hold Watson back), throws an absolute dime that is what, 30 yards downfield? Watson makes throws on a regular basis that are better than any throws we've seen from a Panthers QB since Cam's MVP season.

Eh, I never thought Hayward was all that good. Well not as good as some people were hyping him up to be.

Watson had over 400 yards and 3 touchdowns in his first AFC Championship game at 24 years old. Texans likely win that game if they play anyone but the Mahomes-led Chiefs. Question the compensation, question the fit, but there should be no question about what Watson could do when tasked with taking a contending team where they want to go. The boy is SPECIAL.

One similarity they do have is that competitive spirit. This is my biggest problem with Teddy and Darnold. Yeah they suck but worse than that, they don't have that edge to them that Cam had. Or even Delhomme had - Delhomme was never great but dammit you knew he'd always put up a fight. Cam spoiled me, I'll never be able to accept a "it is what it is" QB ever again. Watson is determined as hell to win. That has always been his M.O.

Someone questioned earlier if we've seen Watson rise to the occasion on a competitive team https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKhocS3rln0 Imagine having a 26-year old capable of making plays like that By the way, that Bills defense? 2nd in the league in points allowed that season. Same Bills team that went 13-3 the following year. Some of ya'll really are sleeping on Deshaun. And yeah, he had Hopkins in Houston... but in Carolina, it would easily be the best skill position group he's ever thrown to. The numbers he would put up would be stupid. Damn I really want this man. Honestly I think I've forgotten how special he was too.

Man some people really have forgotten how good Watson is. Love Cam Panthers have NEVER had a QB who can make throws like that consistently
