it’s in this thread I believe

That’s 3-1 from me.

Fair point. He should have spoken up.

I’m just glad he’s gone.

Lifelong Mets fan here but I do miss local baseball. I’d love to get a team here.

Now that I have had time to sit down and really look at it... here are the reasons why I don't like the move: 1) The draft compensation will need to be a lot and at this point this team could use a lot of talent. We can't afford to give up three firsts for him + something when the truth is, we won't be likely Super bowl contenders with him anyway in year 1 or 2. 2) He is going to want a new contract or an extension and he is going to be costly. So now we will have given up tremendous draft compensation AND financial compensation. 3) The truthfully pain part: We have significantly less talent than the Packers do. The year CMC lit the world on fire we averaged 4.7 yards per carry. Last season the Packers averages 4.8. That is as a team. As an individual CMC averages 4.8 per carry himself. Last season Aaron Jones averaged 5.5 yards per carry on over 200 carries. CMC is more talented but in terms of actual production running the ball, Jones was more efficient. so the actual running game here, likely due to the offensive line, is not going to be better than what he had in Green Bay. Protection? Even with Captain Check down dumping the ball ASAP we gave up 36 sacks as a team. Rodgers was sacked 20 times last year. they have a much better offensive line than we do. They ran for 400 more yards than we did last season. They ran for 300 more yards than our year before with CMC healthy all year. We have better overall pass catchers than they do. If you had to grade the WRs on our two rosters 1-5 its: 1. Adams 2. Moore 3. CMC 4. Anderson 5. At this point I would be willing to bet Marshall ends up as the fifth best between these teams by seasons end. Mason Crosby is significantly a better kicker than Joey Slye. He made 100% of his field goals last year and like 94% of his extra points compared to Slye's 91%. Oh, I almost forgot TE... where Green Bay has significantly better options. Mercedes Lewis at his old age is a tier or two above Ian Thomas who might be the softest TE in all of football. Lewis scored 3 TDs last year. Thomas has 4 TDs in 3 years. Robert Tonyan scored 11 touchdowns last year for Rodgers. His red zone weapons are significantly better in Green Bay. On defense? * We had 7 INTs last year. They had 11. * We had 58 PD last year. They had 74. * We had 29 sacks last year. they had 41. The 3 other teams in his division went 20-28 last year. Our other 3 teams went 27-21. So we are going to need to replenish talent via free agency but Brian Burns and DJ Moore are about to get paid. They will need to make a call on paying Robbie Anderson. Donte Jackson? Rodgers is about to cost close to 40 million this year. They won 1 ring with him and they have more overall talent around him than we do here. To get him we have to give up the draft capital to bring that young talent in and there is no promise he won't do the same thing to us as he is doing to the Packers. And with the line we have our QBs are going to take hits here you have to question if he can hold up behind our line. And we are an east coast team. I think he and his significant other would like to be on the west coast.

Tampa Bay was a borderline playoff team the year before despite their QB throwing 30 interceptions. If they had a QB just trim the INTs in half they would have been a playoff team and Super Bowl contender. This isn’t true for us. We have a lot of holes on the roster and picked 8th in the draft. We were just one loss away from picking third. Tom Brady also had the benefit of having a bunch of solid players wanting to join him in Tampa. I don’t know if Aaron is viewed the same around the league as Tom where people want to come play with him. It’s just not the same situation here as it was in Tampa a year ago.

Same joke twice or your brain stopped working for a bit there?

I guess it depends on what you mean by “win anything”. Am I expecting him to take us to a Super Bowl? We’ve only been there twice. I’d set my goals lower and hope to go up from there. A winning record two years in a row is something this franchise has never done. I’d like to do that. I think Sam can accomplish that over the next 3 years.

You literally wrote “every long throw” just a couple posts ago. Media did not love him. That’s where stories about his work ethic came from. I think you, again, are making things up for dramatic effect. Scouts not so much obviously? One of the tweets above literally quotes a scout.

I think you’re confused as it was almost The most universally praised Pro Days in the league. And this throw was absolutely better than Darnolds. https://www.thebiglead.com/posts/justin-fields-apparently-had-the-best-pro-day-ever-01f228gcy01p I’ll stop linking there but what’s with your weird revisionist history?

Don’t like to see two Falcons on the list.

I kind of dig it.

I try to keep people off ignore as much as possible. Sizzle up until a week ago was the only person on it and I just took him off. I should have put this fella on it much quicker.

I said there were two games where Allen carried the Panthers and you listed CMCs season stats. You aren’t reading. I also said that he carried the Panthers in our offense. Which Teddy did not. You aren’t reading. The most TDs Teddy had in a game in Carolina was 3. So wherever you are pulling 17-20 for 231 yards 4 passing TDs and 1 rushing TD wasn’t with us. That was 2015 with the Vikings. Not our offense. Kyle Allen had a four touchdown passing day in our offense in his first start. Teddy never had a game where he even threw 3. Im not going to engage you further. You are a trash tier troll who won’t be around once the season starts anyway. Of all players to die on a hill for you chose the guy who has a career high of 15 passing TDs lmao. I seriously hope your week gets better.

A few posts late, my friend.

Kyle Allen lead offense was 20th in offense in the NFL. Teddy B was 24th this year. Kyle Allen took over two games and was absolutely the reason we won them. Teddy never had that game as a Panther. Vikings, Jets, Saints, Panthers, Broncos on a 1 year deal… so another team next year… I’m sure five franchises are wrong about Teddy. L O L

That’s not what they are known as lmao. And it’s definitely not more with less. Kyle Allen actually had a game where he carried the team. Teddy did not. Brady did not go from college kid to whiz kid. Are you high? Drunk? You keep making things up. Again, just admit you lied. Go to your new forum.

Nobody thinks Kyle Allen was a legend. But he did throw more touchdowns than Teddy has ever had in a single season. If our receivers sucked then he must really be better than Teddy. Players take pay cuts and players take more money to leave teams all the time. This isn’t Panthers specific. Icing on the cake. It’s like when your job offers you more money to switch over to a new department. You take it. Then when they tell you that you can have somebody you’re familiar with it’s icing on the cake. You’d be here either way but the familiar personnel is a plus. As far as Curtis just admit you lied. You are a troll or you are Teddy Bridewaters relative. The team did everything it could to move on from him. Maybe go convince the Denver Broncos they are a playoff team now with him?

I see it. I appreciate the back and forth.

Except I am excited for Sam. I think we had an excellent draft and he’s set up to succeed here and it’ll be better than Teddy. I didn’t know we couldn’t point out that a receiver had to slow down on a play against the wind. I’d say the same thing for Teddy, or Kyle Allen, or even Cam. Sorry.

You can see what’s going on.

Pooing? I said the WR slowed down at the end. That’s not anything other than a fact. The guy you quoted, was quoting me.

He didn’t do his share. He did worse than Kyle Allen when we had him the year prior. Kyle Allen had 17 touchdown passes. Teddy Bridgewater had 15. “Mike Davis got paid”: 2 years with only 3 million guaranteed. That’s not really getting paid. “Robbie Anderson followed him here from New York”: Anderson said in the offseason before signing it was about getting the most money. We paid him. It had 0 to do with Teddy. We simply offered the most money and he also said he’s always liked our colors. “Curtis Samuels is asking for him in Washington”: Going to need a source for that. Also, I think you’ve done this a few times now but it’s not Samuels. There is no s on the end. Curtis Samuel.

People like me? When Teddy deserved praise, I gave it. When he was trash, I called it out. I’m looking forward to Darnold being the QB here. This was a poor take.
