Was talking about Jake, my man. He crumbles in a collapsing pocket...hence sack fumble...

Gotcha...my bad. :cheers2:

I think it's funny when people say "We have to pay him $12 mil...", as if "we" are party to his contract. Last time I checked, Mr. Richardson owned the Panthers and writes the checks. True, we as fans buy tickets, merchandise, etc...but I'm not so delusional to think that the players have to answer to me.

So Jake stays as the #3 for 12 mil or gets cut for a 13 mil cap hit. Is saving 1 mil by keeping him really worth it?

cut after june 1st instead save about 7 mill this year over keeping him, and pay 8 mill in 2011. i say cut use the money for resigning people, and go bring a retread in harrington or look t younger guys like troy smith, campbell, or t jacks.

personally i am hoping that a nfc west team or 2 kicks a starting calibre guy to the curb for cap relief or b/c they draft a new qb they want to start.

Because it's our team idiot. Just a figure of speech when people feel emotionally attached to something.

I'm sure you have never said "we" concerning anything you didn't have complete control over.

Don't get me wrong, I say "we" when I'm talking about the Panthers all the time. It just strikes me as funny when "we" are talking about how "we" are paying millions of dollars. Not sure why it strikes me as funny. Maybe because when I'm talking about "we" it's an emotional connection. But the monetary connection is different and so I don't have that same sense of ownership or emotional tie to the dollars. I dunno. Hard to put into words. Didn't mean any disrespect to anyone, just making an observation.
