This is just stupid. If Tepper owned the team and they were in your backyard it wouldn’t be any different after 6 losing seasons. People would be pissed and it just wouldn’t be any different. This malaise is Tepper generated.

Looking at this from my perspective.. and I will spare you my litany of reasons for having this opinion, but for the most part you’d be paying $100 an hour for a baby sitter or security guard to protect the decent kids from the idiot bullies. Sorry. More trade schools fewer universities. Bring manufacturing back so people can work and feel like they are somebody. Teach them to do that and give them a way to be productive. That is where bigger money charity should focus, IMO. Tepper just wants the press.

If we had wanted to trade Norman we could have done pretty well better than a 5th in return. You know, the analytical path that just churns value upwards. Which, I’d like to see happen with QBs being taken late.

His arguments weren’t really clear, He said traded for Corral which he was a drafted player. Though we did trade up. = confused, unclear. Then there was the contention that had no gray area, he was franchise or bust - no in between. Which is really what is the most likely outcome. Maddening mediocrity.

Hush your mouth.

If we could just get that loud extrovert you refer to, to actually walk off the cliff the world might have a chance to breathe.

That was so ridiculous. If you give the QB that misses high a higher target the ball will just miss higher.

Yeah I hear you man but this is not a litmus test for OUR character. All the sucking it up in the world won’t affect anything about that football team and the issue of a failed draft deal. The point is would you want to go back to that steakhouse? I mean, no you probably don’t. I don’t have to suck that up. I am free to lobby and critique as it moves me, same as you. I am saying I don’t the team to go back to a crappy steakhouse lol.

Honestly I think you are more sensitive to other people’s opinions a little more than I am in the sense that the lack of a tie and the disciplining that resulted didn’t make me think much besides someone was being an asshole. And I don’t care if other people don’t think that; it won’t really change how I view it. They are free to think it. WTF does CMC have to do with it? I am sorry I don’t get it. And I don’t see people talking about Darnold vs Cam the way you say. I really just think you might be looking and waiting for a chance to be taking some umbrage with stuff that seems to me is really fairly isolated and not reflective of how most of us think. Maybe you think we think that way? No offense really, I am just not seeing what you are seeing. If I say a criticism of a player I promise it is not motivated by some agenda other than football ands winning. Or losing wtf it is the Panthers. If that changes I will for sure preface what I say with my reasons for saying it. And I know what saying this stuff may lead to in terms of characterization language but I hope it doesn’t.

Unfortunately for some people, that is how they think. It’s just football for most.

It is sort of like, you go out and spend a lot for a fancy steak at a top spot and the service is slow and the steak isn’t cooked as you requested. It is a big letdown. The waiter still wants his tip, the government wants its tax, the joint wants its menu price. edit: I mean, you know the feeling, sucker. Feeling like you were taken.

Bry BrySIS? Really? Trying too hard man. I mean, I have said and heard some stupid poo people say trying to be funny. This is up there.

If they put Darnold in the same situation as they build for Young, and then add the pieces that are the difference in cost for the two and invest that back into the roster on top of what has been recently added? Ain’t a soul but Bryce Young hims-elf changing my mind about that.

Exactly. Good poo is expensive. Any thing you do, if you want to outfit yourself for it, I don’t think you can go wrong doing the buy once pay once thing. If you are good at it and keep your eyes open you can find cheaper subsitutes that you may be equally happy with using but that takes know how. Getting quality out of the gate, paying once, is rarely a mistake. edit: so make sure about Brown.

I see the point of that is phuck trading up to one for a QB. Too risky. Too expensive. Get good at figuring out what you need in a QB and find it elsewhere.

This is perspective and I think Canales’ dad was a shrink. His description of this lack of urgency which we see is ‘cold blooded’. Not excited just surgical. Also, the 1 of 11 while a smart way to go, is also a pretty big smoke job probably intended to take pressure off of the QB., But which is it? I don’t think we were looking at cold blooded killer last year. Maybe he can kill something, but he is up against a lot. I am going to have to defend him somewhat on the leadership though because it was his first season and his play was not strong enough for him to start putting people on notice or any talk at all. And his voice... and he looks like a kid. It would probably hurt him more than help him in to be rah rah in that situation. Just grind.

It is fine to pay him a good contract but he needs to earn it. They have to pay somebody in ’25. He needs to fit and show he is that guy, in this offense. If he doesn’t, stick.. I know he is talented, but that would shift the perception of players, in regards to coming to Carolina. A great year for this guy probably means a great year for the team. A reversal of trajectory. Maybe another guy who is blocked but really good, gets another prove it deal. What do we know about him as far as holding up mentally physically over 17 games? Let’s find out.

This is those radio talk guys that are the sports equivalent of shock jocks. Just engineering an argument to get eyes and ears. I’m not even listening to that. I know the answer and it is no. If he has a great year he will probably want to stick. If he leaves his great year attracts another guy that wants one.

I smell the Patriots way in action.

Wow, it’s like he didn’t even watch film to inform his opinions.

You don’t know if Clowney talked with other people on the team and was told things... but even if not it doesn’t take a long time to see this about Young.

There ya go, Oakland probably beats Charlotte out easily. If only Charlotte had a perennial .400 MLB franchise that could furnish the large market teams with proven MLB players.

Some people are gonna be so mad with that arm strength description. I agree with it, and feel we are hamstrung by limitations and it will require much extra effort and investment to prop him up. The opposite of how he was sold by the organization and the media. The hitch is exactly what I saw when I looked at his film. It is right there for all to see at his pro day. Probably still online. It is just there if you look, it isn’t something I made up for some made up reason like oh that means I hate Bryce Young (people today are so freaking dramatic).
