I love that the Panthers already have Cam locked up.  Gettleman is doing WORK.  Seattle might lose Wilson at this rate.  

The Seattle Seahawks and Russell Wilson don't appear to be close on a contract extension, but apparently there is at least one offer on the table.

Seattle has offered their quarterback a deal in the range of Cam Newton's recent extension, according to Mike Garafolo of FOX Sports. That's something Wilson isn't willing to accept.

@ProFootballTalk Hearing from folks since posting latest Russell Wilson blurb. Current prediction: He's playing for someone else in 2016.

 

Well that escalated

It already is.  It could mean a trainwreck season for the Seahawks, distracted by Wilson's contract extention and unsure if their franchise QB will be there next season.  I'm loving this.  Meanwhile the Panthers have their franchise QB locked up and are ready to make a run.

he fuged the wolfpack over similiarly so it doesn't surprise me one bit

But Wilson would do anything to help the team!!!

I guess he's holding out for a smaller contract, right?

They can still franchise him.  But they either ridiculously overpay with the exclusive tag or simply overpay with the non-exclusive, giving other teams a chance for two first rounders and an offer the Hawks couldn't match.  Not to mention zero long term stability. I LOVE it.

Wanna REALLY turn the screws?  Sign Luke NOW and piss off both Wagner and Wilson even more with zero way to satisfy both.  (Hell they can't satisfy one)

Go GMan go!!!!!

what a turd burgler.  if he ACTUALLY thinks he's worth more than Cam to his team, MUCH LESS even remotely close to Rodgers money then he has legitimately went head first off the deep end, bought into his own hype machine.

On another site a poster said RW was definitely worth more than Cam and that they were a 7 win team before he arrived and are now a 12 win team.  I argued the Panthers were a 2 win team (with wins over John Skelton and David Carr) and have averaged 8 post Cam, including the tie as a loss, not including the 2-14 the first two years in one score games lost by a rookie head coach in RR and the #27 D in 2011.  Win differential favors Cam.  Crickets after that.  Classic perception vs reality playing out before our very eyes in Cam/RW being selfish/team first.

Even funnier when Cam had an MVP type season and wins a SB while Seattle stumbles and Wilson has a down year... Gonna backfire in his face and lose money.

Who would want such an ugly dude for the "face of a franchise" anyways....let him walk.

 

I wanna see him play for a team that does not have 47 pro bowlers..

[Ricky Spanish]

I want them to trade him to the Browns for picks and Johnny Manziel.
