Hasn't this always been the plan?

Well, except for that whole no comment on leaving the Carolinas thing. I imagine that's probably more to retain a bargaining chip to try to exploit tax payers for a new stadium or stadium upgrades than it is a real threat to leave though.

Mabye so, I was unaware that they wanted to sell. Is it sad that I'm kinda of glad its not staying in the family?

Selling the team will probably be the best. I don't for see the team being moved out of Charlotte. The move to LA isnt looking good thus far, and Vegas is still to come. While time will tell, I don't see a market to move a team to, I think the risk would be too great considering how the team is doing here.

Same poo out here in Vegas with the Raiders, nobody here, and I seriously mean nobody, wanted the Raiders here, but someone we got "awarded" that fug ass franchise and now our taxes are going up like crazy to pay for it. Makes no sense why taxpayers here should have to pay for something we didn't want, we all know damn well when it's paid for, they won't drop the taxes back down

That's not new news, likely due to inheritance tax. I could see Jordan, Belk brothers or Mark Cuban buying the team. There's no way the team moves, to where? St. Louis, London, San Antonio, other than London those would be downgrade choices. London will never have a full time team, travel logistics make it impossible

Hell no to Mark Cuban. You think Hurney is bad, Cuban throws a max contract at a role playing shooting guard every summer

The huddle is in uncharted territory here...ban.  Richardson is a great man and brought this franchise to the Carolinas.  I'm on record that this is out of bounds and wrong.  If we do end up losing this team it will have plenty to do with negative fans sitting on the couch somewhere expecting perfection every week.  Even then they find a problem.  No class, we should be better than this.  Period.

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      He made some excellent throws but he always has made some excellent throws here and there. I don't know what to think, which is what I was apprehensive about. Is he going to have a decent downfield game? Because okay Legette dropped one, but someone was giving stats prior to the bye or during it where he had two downfield completions and one of them was the jump ball that is just launched and fingers are crossed that our guy comes down with it, and yesterday we saw that again. The Russell Wilson school of downfield passing.  I don't feel like that is sustainable, but at the same time you have to do Something to make the defense understand they have to defend that downfield throws. Like i said, confused.  I guess I'm going to review the game for myself and look closely at his mechanics and stuff because if he actually fixed that stuff it explains the better throws. And that has been my biggest objection, or what I see as the thing that makes or breaks his chances, that unorthodox dropback and tippy toe action and not having his feet set which limits velocity etc etc.

      Crazy stat

      By Manna · Posted

      The negative Nancy in me (or objective?) says that they had a bye week to prepare for the Chiefs. However, it’s one thing to have a good plan and it’s another to actually execute it. For all the flack he’s received (from me as well), Bryce seemingly has put his head down and worked his tail off and his play is giving me hope. The first 18-game Bryce showed no progression whatsoever. He gets benched, comes back, and has shown steady progress every week he has started. I think I’m starting to see what the Bryce lovers and unconditional defenders were saying all along, and I hope he can show that on a regular basis for the sake of our QB1 position.

      Some Thoughts on Our Remaining Games

      Yeah, we could still very well end up 4-13 with the 2nd pick.   I think LVR has the inside track for 1, with only a JAX team as a team on docket that could be beatable.
