Clowney coming home?

If it were all about that, he wouldn’t even be entertaining Carolina from the start.   He’s an extreme mommas boy, or atleast he used to be, and loves South Carolina.   I think if the panthers were even in the playoff conversation he would have been signed by now.  Still a decent shot though due to the location factor 

I hope you are right! He is a much needed piece of the puzzle.

I'll never get the "bring him home" stuff. How many of us actually NEED to be close to our folks? It takes no time for an NFL player to hop on a plane and go see the family. Players also have the off season. Yeah, he could get a huge mansion in SC, but uh ... he'd be in SC. Play for a better team, in a more exciting area, then after you retire you can go home.

There is a difference in being able to play in front of your family.

Right but they still have to sign rookies

We still have some big negotiations to do that will open more - we can open up $14M by restructuring Moton, Thielen, Sanders, and Tuttle.  All depends on the impact on next year's ability to cut them if needed.

Or buy your mother a mansion in whatever state you're currently playing in.

    • What I really learned here is that the Carolina Panthers aren't anywhere near as bad as I initially thought they were earlier this year.  We've got a young and growing offense with some promising parts. But it still needs some tweaks and improvements.  We really still could still use a dominant #1 WR. But Chubba,  Legette, Coker,  and J.Sanders have generally looked decent. Bryce took a big leap after the benching. We can score enough points to keep pace with 2x defending super bowl champions, so offense isn't a huge issue. Main thing that needs improvement is defense. We sorely need a CB 2, and a number of new players at Dline and LB.  We're not quite as bad at edge with Wonnum showing promise.  But we definitely need 1 or 2 more edges Clowney is old.  Run D is probably worse prevailing theme these past couple years. We really need a good young stud or two to pair with Derrick Brown and another LB to pair up with Trevin Wallace. If Morgan and Canales can focus on rebuilding the defense this off-season and possibly going out and getting a #1 WR. This team could easily be somewhere around 7-10 to 10-7 and flirting with playoffs in 1 or 2 seasons. Overall this game has made me feel alot more positive about the direction of the team.
    • With our picks we need pass rush, lb, Safety, a speedster yac wr, o line depth and I still want a mid round qb. We got 9 picks and 8 in the first 5 rounds. If they pull Off another solid draft we be cooking. 
    • We had one passing touchdown against the Giants and one passing touchdown against the Chiefs today. Yes a good backup can replicate that. And that is why Andy Dalton in significantly less games has the same number of 30 point outings as Bryce Young. I am on board with you guys about wanting to be hopeful for the future. Today was a good performance to build on especially at home. But let's please keep things in perspective. BTW the Bucs who honestly aren't even that good blew the doors off the Giants today after we went to overtime against them with 17 points. Again. Perspective.
