Actually i saw somewhere that LVE feed a live bear a fish......

On TMZ no less...

I think the Texans gonna have a top 10 pick next season, Mayfield gave them a better chance than any backup they have now. Who knows how long Watson will be suspended, they have a talented team and with no qb, it looks like it's going to be wasted.

Fixed that for you.

Have you watched Cameron in the last few years?

This, he looks worse than Peyton his last year. Just flat out terrible.

Going to be interesting to see how Mayfield responds if he loses the competition to Darnold. Neither one of them are going to be happy as a backup. Carolina will be looking to trade one of them after this season.

Definitely a top-5 storyline for the NFL as the 2022 training camp approaches.
Interesting to see how Arnold performs with this challenge.
KJJ - will an unfortunate TC-preseason injury or two spur deals for some team(s) to get a 3rd overall pick from 4 years ago that has perhaps had his career growth + success impeded by two currently downtrodden franchises?

They are both free agents after this season.

Given that, you are correct neither will be happy as a backup.

It all adds up. Mayfield has been up and down his entire career and has had some injury issues. His leadership has also been in question. The Browns came to the realization that he’s not the answer and made the big move for Watson. They’ve been searching for a great player at the position since Bernie Kosar. The only way to get Mayfield and his contract off their hands was to trade him for cheap. He’s so disgruntled there’s no way they could bring him back.

Watson is a colossal disaster of a disgusting human that may never play another down. Far worse than Mayfield.

Again, it doesn't add up.

The Panthers plays the Browns on Sept. 11. this game just became more entertaining. lol

Personally I think that is grand theft. I think Mayfield will upgrade that team immensely. Browns have a clown show for a front office, I think a new system will make Mayfield better.

 

[ghst187]

a 5th rd pick? and has 5 mill on his deal. Panthers got a good deal

Great move by them. Clear upgrade

 

[Sarge]

They split the financials... the pick was the ham, but the cash was the cheese.

The QB is the ham.

 

[Ranching]

Good for him....not a big fan, but he gets a fresh start...

Newton is toast, cooked, burnt, etc. Great physical specimen though.

from NFL MVP .. to mere journeyman ...

 

[gimmesix]

That’s what they thought with Darnold too

I applaud them for trying. It's a low-cost move to try to fix the most important position on the field.

 

[quickccc]

first Donald ... now Baker .... nuthin is gonna change in Panther-land.

Matt Rhule's last hurrah season ............... .

 

[Runwildboys]

That's gotta make Baker feel good about himself.

The QB is the ham.

QB is the toast... lol

That is one hell of a 63M hurrah! I could not believe that deal when I saw it.

But you're the honey!
