I’m not buying PSL just so I can get first dib at buying the seat. I don’t care whatever price it is. Someone just won a bid paying I think $120k to catch a pass from Tom Brady? That included private flight, hotel etc. I rather do that. 

And I don't blame you for not spending $120k. I bought 3 PSLs from the Panthers for $600 a piece and literally paid like $50 a month for 4 years, so I literally had no concern about it. I legit like to go to every game, so I get my use out of them. 

If I want to have a premium experience, I will just sell my tickets and go on Ticketmaster and buy tickets in the lower bowl, typically sitting in the lowers loses it's luster after two or three times imo. 

Typically the only time I bother investing in Lower level seats is if I'm going to a road game, as upper level at any NFL stadium 9/10 times has the rowdiest fans in the building. 

The issue with the logic "You can just buy tickets 3 hours before." Not in every scenario, I typically like to invite people who don't get to go to NFL games much to go with me, so it's easier to do knowing I have tickets. 

You're also not taking into account, that 2019 was the last year the Panthers were willing to issue ANY physical tickets (And you had to pay $50-$100 for this thin flimsy paper ticket), so now in 2021, there will be no more people outside scalping, if someone resales it will be on stubhub or NFL ticket exchange, so you'll have more competition for getting tix. I also seriously doubt you paid less then face value for the NFC Divisional Round and Championship in 2015 (You probably had to spend $500 more then the tickets cost to attend both games). Dallas in 2018 was $185 on Stubhub and NFL Tickets 30 minutes before the game. Plus, in the off chance you got tickets for less then face value, Stubhub and Ticketmaster will hit you with their $50 a ticket ticket fees. 

I've also got to go on the field to hold up the American flag, go to training camp in a special area with unlimited food and I got to meet Julius Peppers in his last season. 

PSLs are meant for people with enough disposable income that they would rather pay a little more most games to not have to go through the trouble of saving $20.

somehow I was able to get NFCCG tix from TM, after about 30 minutes in spinning arrow hell I got them secured, almost killed the transaction twice thinking it was lost in the ether, so glad I let it ride, that was an experience I'll never forget

Probably true. I have PSLs because my time is worth more than saving a few bucks on a Sunday morning. And me and my kid will likely go to every game.

If the Panthers and Pats are good it will all be worth it when they come to town. Playoff tickets are a nice plus.

I don’t even know why people waste money on PSL.

I never understood the point of paying a load of money just so you will be entitled to have first dib at buying ticket for that seat on game day.

I just want inside and I can find cheap tickets every Sunday 1-3 hours before 1pm.

Why would someone buy PSL for $25000? I might just be stupid.

So don't buy PSLs

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
