It's depressing but there are some players that need to be finding their own reasons to give 100% today.

We've developed a losing culture here and sadly at the end of the season we've got to sweep those guys out who have just been here collecting paychecks and not living up to their potential. And those are on the field and on the sidelines and in the board rooms and in the scouting department.

This is a game where someone has to realize that the next coach, the next GM will be watching this. They'll be seeing where the rot is and where it needs to be cut away.

And honestly, to call out one player, Spider-man Burns needs to show out. Right now he's going to be regretting not signing that contract because what he has put on tape this year has greatly damaged his earning potential.

Man, it sucks to be in this position. In our advantage, though, is that the Saints suck, too.

I hope to see another great game from Chuba today. 

Chuba has been a pleasant surprise I saw his interview I didn't know he had hip surgery prior to his rookie season....

His contract should motivate him, the panthers have sucked so long it's hard to blame anyone who is giving poo effort.

      This is why they'll lose. The draft pick value is substantial vs. minimal cap impact.

      You keep mentioning the impact on the salary cap, but that's literally not the point with all these 2nd Rounders, it's all about precedent and it being a slippery slope that would lead to more fully guaranteed contracts for veterans. That's what the teams are making sure this doesn't get to, because yes, you're right, the guarantees for a 2nd rounder won't have significant cap implications if the player doesn't work out.  But you give that fully guaranteed 3-4 year contract to a FA who then shits the bed in year 1 and never regains the form that got them the contract, then yes, it's going to screw up your cap management and won't be a rounding error. And you can say it's a big leap to go from guaranteeing a 2nd round pick's contract to a big FA signing, but it's really not.  Once teams start giving them out, it's only going to keep growing and be insisted upon by agents in other situations and once the ball starts rolling down the hill, it's going to be impossible to stop it's momentum. Also, the only reason a 2nd rounder's contract would be a rounding error, is explicitly because contracts aren't guaranteed and teams can finagle the cap hits with various tactics.  Once contracts become more and more guaranteed, that won't be as easy to do, if even possible at all, and those individual rounding errors become serious problems in totality.
