Are we a more attractive destination for Russell Wilson?

If you have a ring you get to be listened to.

If you don't then shut up and play.

Russell has a ring.

I don't have an issue with allowing QBs to have express their ideas to management.  However, at the end of the day it is management's job to manage and a coaches job to coach.  

Russell, Rodgers and Watson have made it clear they want more than to just express themselves, they want control in management/coaching decisions. 

Not interested in any of them for that reason alone.

Also, no successful QB on the backside of his career wants to spend his Sunday afternoons running for his life on an historically dysfunctional team like the Panthers.  They want a soft landing spot like Brady and Stafford received.

Precisely. Why make it a struggle to win?

Brady made his team a contender immediately, as did Stafford.

Tampa was essentially a Tom Brady away from contending for a championship.

Carolina, not so much.

With Tom came Gronk and others. There isn't anybody here guys are looking to come play with. No star. The closest thing we had was disrespected and kicked out the door hastily.

Russell played at NC State but the dude is married to a celebrity and now wants to be a celebrity. He’s not coming here to Carolina. Seattle has a better head coach, OL and organization than Carolina. If Carr wasn’t playing so well right now, Russell would probably be a Raider next year.

I think our team is as good if not better than the Bucs pre-Tom Brady if we could fix the OL. Tamp’s front seven is elite but secondary is average at best. Tampa also used a high pick and hit pay dirt on Wirfs.  If we have a franchise QB, Terrace Marshall wouldn’t be a ghost like he has this season.

    • NFL Pro has the All-22 up already 😄 Going to grab a play or two from each redzone series to put screenshots to. Looks like AT angled his route off to the near pylon rather than the back corner where Bryce was throwing to. I imagine this is something they'll quickly try to figure out with Thielen back from IR. After watching the All-22 again, this was actually a pretty nifty play. I thought it was a TE screen to Tremble because of the way XL charged the DB, but he quickly shed and kept upfield as seen in the second screenshot. This looks like it had multiple layers built into it with AT running the crosser, XL the fade, Tremble to the flat. The progression would call for the play to go to Chuba here as the LB does follow Tremble out into the flat. Ball hits Chuba low and in the hands, but the LB does a good job disrupting the catch.
    • The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.
    • Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
