The question is why in the hell would Ben Johnson want us?

 

We are literally the worst situation in the NFL. Unless Tepper massively overpays no chance he comes here.

he doesn't

 

he and his agent are using this "appearing together" as leverage to get mega money from a competent NFL franchise. Tepper is basically the leverage tool

This is so true. 

 

I gave this stranger a ride to the store he literally smelled sickening. I'm talking about he killed my appetite for the rest of the day I couldn't eat anything. That scent will always haunt me. Humans body odor is something serious if you don't care to wash. Never again will I give a stranger a ride in my vehicle.

well... the funk is settling in...

But I would argue the panthers/NFL don’t know what Ben wants in general. I’m not a “rah rah needs fire guy” but Ben comes off as a quiet dude.

He pulled himself out of head coaching interviews because he felt like he wasn't ready.

That's not the sign of a power hungry control freak.

He wanted him last year too. I'm sure he told him about the idea of possibly trading up to #1 for a QB. But Johnson might have his choice of jobs this year. He could go somewhere like LA and have Herbert or go somewhere like the Bears and have his choice of rookies or hang onto Fields and put #1 on the auction block. Again.

That’s fair. 
 

I like the idea of Ben but I’m just not as enamored with him like the rest of the league is right now. I just get the feeling that wherever he goes expectations are gonna be super high and it will be interesting to see if he sinks or swims.

It will take 4yrs 70mil to get him here...plus one year to prove bryce aint it...and to unfk everything Fitt jacked up....

The money isn't an issue, has no impact on the team.  The other points are super valid.  Everyone expects the next coach to be a Bryce fanatic and they honestly shouldn't be.  Be a Panther's fanatic.  This team will still exist if Bryce turns out to not be NFL material.  Build up the roster and give him the tools to sink or swim on his own with no excuses.  If he swims, fantastic. If he sinks, after this year, you have the capital to acquire your guy. I'm not sold on the notion that BY is gonna run coaches off. Take this season to get your offensive identity in order, start getting your pieces and go from there.  You already know if you're an offensive coach that the priority and focus is going to be on the offense. Use it to your advantage.

      They gave him franchise QB money. Sorry but if you don't earn it you can be embarrassed.   He's rich he can take it. Stop feeling sorry for people who can't live up to their contract. This isn't a sport to be soft. Daniels deserves to give back some of that money he stole if you ask me.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      And it was coming off of a bye week. Perhaps he should vacation a bit in Germany in the off season, something certainly seemed to help him there.  No, really... He showed maturation and the possibility that he's turning a corner. That wasn't the NY Giants out there, but the back to back Super Bowl champions with the #3 defense in the league, with them coming off of a prime time loss. And that was a 9-1 team we just played literally down to the last second. Bryce played so well that maybe, maybe he wins over some nay-sayers. It's still early, though, but what a nice breath of fresh air that was. You can win quite a few games if that is your normal performance. It is obvious that we are still on the learning curve, though. But that was one helluva test he just took. Some of these QBs coming out of college just don't have a lot of games under their belts, especially in top end programs. They are perhaps just a year to two years behind center in games that matter before they move up. It can take them some time to hit their stride. We can still be cautious about our future and still celebrate a great game by the kid, though, and we should. He earned the laurels today, or had before they were snatched away at the last second.
