I love Greg Olsen, but I honestly hope he retires. Big men rarely recover from recurring foot injuries. That's just a ton of stress on some very small bones and connecting tissues. Freeing up that cap space could be key for us and Ian Thomas looks ready to go. Olsen is awesome on the mic and I think he'll make a great commentator/analyst. It may be time for him to start looking at life after football. He's certainly not the only current player looking to take this route and that door may not stay open permenantly.

It's been fun, Greg. You're a Panthers legend. Go become a legend on the mic now.

It sounds as if Fox is the only one really making a play for him. If he retires he loses his 3.4 million plus has to pay back some of his 11 million in signing bonus. I doubt they pay even 3.4 million for a season and honestly it will be there when he retires in 2 years. It isn't a once in a lifetime opportunity that goes away

      Dream big: Imagine this future and tell me how you feel

      Just because we made a bad trade and selected the wrong QB does not mean we should double triple and quadruple down on a QB who is currently for this season 35th in passing yards 36th in touchdowns 39th in yards per attempt 40th in yards per game 39th in completion % and 42nd in passer rating. In this league you need not only a really good QB but it pays dividends to have a good backup plan in place. Why would you or anyone else be against us having a real legitimate insurance policy this go around instead of a washed up Andy Dalton and an afterthought like Jack Plummer? It sounds to me like some of you are only invested in catering to one player because you want to salvage the trade instead of doing what is best for the whole team long term. Bryce Young does not carry that level of sway. That's all there is to it.

      Bryce Young what a crazy statement

      I honestly do wonder how much of an impact his breakup with his GF had on thing First two weeks like you said he looked depressed. Gets a month to get over it and comes back a completely new person

      Man whether it's the Panthers or the Hornets it's crazy how many foolish talking heads there are in the local media. I just unsubscribed from locked on Hornets. Doug Branson with his cheesy mustache is an absolute clown especially when his partner isn't on. Talking about trading LaMelo because he can't win basketball games by himself with no semblance whatsoever of a legitimate Center. These YouTube personalities will say anything for a damn click.
