no Cutler in Pantherland. They are reaching for a story and are just mixing inthe obvious. It makes sense on the surface that we would be interested since we have an all pro defender that we cannot deal and we have a poor QB and that is all a reporter on the 4-letter needs to mention it as a possibility.

Carolina will not make a play. They cannot do anything even if they wanted too.

Peter King is a joke of a journalist and by no means a "reliable media source for the NFL." I'm not saying this because it is my opinion. King is an opinion columnist. He does not nor never has presented himself as an "insider". Everything he puts out is purely opinion based. Jay Glazer, Mort, Scheftner, hell even the crept keeper are insiders but King is not.

Please note that I'm not saying that his information is wrong. It very well could be correct but if it is he got the information from one of the guys I listed above. That's what King does.

You guys clearly don't get it. There is a secret number of threads that need to be created before a wish comes true. I think the number is somewhere around 1,486 different threads.

Right now, we are getting destroyed by the Bucs, so it looks like he will be in Tampa. Poor Lions, they don't have enough fans to create enough threads.

Peter King, the most reputable media source for the NFL had the following to say:

"Other teams are likely to be interested, including Cleveland, Minnesota, San Francisco and possibly Carolina. It's a virtual certainty that the Bucs and Jets, both without a bonafide No. 1 quarterback entering the draft, will bid aggressively for Cutler."

:shocked: :lol:

he is speculating...reaching.

he used the phrase "likely to be interested" for several teams and then had to add the "possibly" tag to carolina.

it's all an assumption based on nothing but a hunch that he has.

writing junk like that doesn't make you reputable. it makes you just another talking head trying to throw crap on the wall to see if it sticks.

By a mile.

Regardless, the mention of Carolina in here is just thrown-in speculation, not based on any actual contact. Heck, you could make an argument for Cincinnati being interested because they have a franchise type QB they could swap in Carson Palmer, but could choose to go with Cutler instead since he's younger and doesn't have an injury history (diabetes isn't an injury).

Bottom Line though, a lot of national guys concentrate only on the larger stories. That's why I prefer local beat writers for inside info.

Add in that national guys can be prone to speculation that some without discernment are unable to distinguish from actual "inside info". Witness Chris Mortensen's 2006 suggestion that the Panthers were likely to dump Jake Delhomme and draft a QB in the first round next year. Also John Clayton biting hard on Marty Hurney's bluffs about trading up for Matt Ryan. People jumped all over those too, but the local guys knew better.

(heck, even some of us knew better than that)

      Bryce Young May Be The Answer

      By Aussie Tank · Posted

      I call bullshit. Brady,Manning,Brees and Burrow are all just ball distributors. And the better thier supporting cast and more experience they got the better they got. Thier best attributes were between the ears.  Now I'm not saying Bryce is gonna turn into one of them but what I want is for him. Is to have a solid roster around him and some coaching continuity too see if he takes the next step. Because everything I've seen and read after the benching is that his mental toughness and workethic are what we need in a QB

      2024 Draft Picks

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Many criticize our picks in 2024. I believe that most of them were picked because their ceiling is better than those selected before them.  XLs needs to learn how to play in the NFL. Once he gets up to speed he'll be worthy of 32nd pick.  Brooks, showed why we took him in the few games he played. The ACL injury really sucks but he can overcome these setbacks. Remember TD had 3 ACLs and eventually will be in the ring of honor one day.  Wallace will be a solid LB going forward with experience  Sanders, TE is a tough position to play. He a getting valuable playing time and will become a good TE.  Going down the remaining draft pics all seem to have a good upside. They may not be showing much now but they will start showing their worth next season.

      I think he's shown enough that if a QB fell to us at our pick we'd either draft a defensive player or trade down for more picks.
