Panthers to ink Quintin Mikell?

we're certainly a team on the rise, and in a much better position to succeed than StL. If being part of a great D, and having a chance to go deep in the playoffs consistently matters, then we shouldn't have any problem peaking his interest.

 

just saying.............

 

Stl. will be much better this year and a Jeff Fisher D isn't a bad place to be.

Get this done, Gettleman. An instant band-aid on the secondary; not a long-term solution, but having a guy like this back there last year would have at least won us the first Atlanta game.

I think he would have won us 2 or 3 games last year. 

1. 1st Atlanta game

2. 2nd TB game

3. Chicago game

 

Quintin is by no means a long term solution, but a heck of alot better than what we have right now. I would sign him for a year or two, but I wouldn't over pay.

At least the local beat writers are on top of keeping us updated...no wonder there is so much sports apathy in Charlotte.

Just too much ignorance by fans actually.  Usually these leaks come from the free agents side to try to drum up interest.  A local beat writer would not have the connections in many cases to get an inside scoop.  The Panthers management has never been one to leak discussion info.  What more do you want local writers to do?  They aren't going to become puppets to free agents because that would just make them look stupid.

They don't have anyone who can score points, I don't see them being much better than us.  Who knows, maybe Bradford will finally make it happen there.

 

StL has been 'on the cusp' for years.  When it comes down to it, though, but hasn't been able to get over the hump.  Maybe Fisher can turn them around.  We'll see.  But...they still don't have anyone who can score points.

Good point but maybe write that...acknowledge it. Thats all I am saying.

    • Did I mention that he was on worse teams?  Yes.  Do QBs alone win games?  No.  Did Cam, on a much better team with some awesome defenses ever have 2 consecutive winning seasons?  No.  So now you are cherry picking,  If the overall stats are similar, you take a look at him.   I told you that you look at his skill set---but you wanted to tell me that he sucks and mentioned performance.  I just presented performance--and his numbers are very similar to Cam Newton's numbers--a player most call the best Panther QB ever--and I agree.  By the way, Fumbles are evidence of how bad his OL has been--so you are saying that a QB in a situation worse than Cam's who has stats and physical abilities very similar to Cam's should not be given a look when you have Bryce Young at QB?  You are going with that story because you simply talked your way into a corner and now you are trying to save face.  No good GM would do what you suggest because "he sucks."  Sorry, but the facts do not support you.  But no matter what eye-opening details I provide, there are some who are going to go their Google machines to try to find some reason to support an ignorant approach to developing the QB position.  You ignored the similarities to Cam and went cherry picking.  I know what you are doing--but I am only suggesting (as I have stated before) that we bring him in as one of three approaches to resolving the QB issue. Compete with Bryce and draft a QB. Basically, I am suggesting that Jones has the potential to replace Dalton and compete with Young.  He is a battered stock that could get better in a better situation--that is human nature.  Instead, I am called a Daniel Jones lover and superfan.  That is good debate--But a real sign of immature thinking is the inability to LOGICALLY consider alternative perspectives--which is actually a characteristic of intelligence.   
    • I don’t get this, I know that is the popular thought process but I just don’t think it’s true.  For instance head to head last year the ACC had a winning record against the SEC.  The SEC had a losing record in bowl games. This year so far the head to head is 2-3 SEC and that’s with a fluke Vandy win in week one.  I see the ACC taking another head to head winning season after next week.  The SEC is mostly hype with 3 good teams, in my opinion.  But to say any ACC team would get exposed I believe is a stretch 
    • What the hell?  How is presenting Cam's stats hating him?  The point is not to hate Cam, it is to show you how similar Jones is to him and why you take a look at him.  I mentioned Jones has the skill set to take a look--the response is, "look at his 5 years of performance."  So I compare him to the greatest QB in franchise history, and the stats are similar--while Jones was in a worse situation.  Now that is "hating?"  Come on.  This is a meritless, ignorant, personal attack because you are wrong.  Just stop it.  You all attack the poster when you have nothing.  So saying "we should consider a guy with similar stats and size to Cam Newton" is now hating Cam and making me a Jones super fan- that is just stupid.
