Another QB with no ring getting over $100m DAAAAMN..
Lay of the land. You're either a fringe QB getting "peanuts" like Hoyer/McCown or a QB making $90+ million.

Sure the Panthers bought the refs and fucked us over with the bogus non-call, but Cam showed some good shit in that game against us 2 years ago.
Dude can throw and the way he showed he can escape pressure during the game is fucking insane.
Cam is special, I much rather pay him than Tannehill (Sorry Darkest Dad)

bbbbbut ez told me he'd get $5 and a stick of chewing gum #bcplayersbedumb
Proud of you Cam <3
I don't understand the reactions to franchise QBs getting market value. I also don't understand the relevance or emphasis on having a ring. Teams are paying for the future, not what for a player has done.

Can we get the FBI to take out Uncle Rog now?

He'll be gone soon. Even Wilbon just brought out the agenda on tv.
Kraft accepted the punishment to make Goodell sweat. Goodell is already starting to back out of the punishment and said he's open to talk to Brady, ie reduce the punishment.
Kraft has so much power within the owners, he's going to gut Goodell and have him replaced soon. Too many fuck ups for the league office.
Are you being facetious naming Rodgers and Romo?
Brady's the only star QB that's really ever taken below market value (without being forced to like Luck/Wilson's contracts, etc.)
You read what you posted right? It even says restructure in the Romo info.
Alts are not allowed.
Goodell stomped the PA in the CBA, that's the only thing that the owners care about.
The owner's puppet keeps fucking up. He'll be replaced soon.
Do you even know what restructure means? Romo's not giving up any money. All they did is push the money further down the line:
MAR 4 2014
Restructured $12.5M of his 2014 base salary with Dallas (DAL)
APR 1 2015
Coverted $16 million of his 2015 salary into bonus, clearing $12.8 million in 2015 cap space with Dallas (DAL)
He's still getting paid every dime, they just spread the high base salaries over more years to create cap space in THAT specific year:
idk why but i lold

Because Brady is a true team player.
He had to agree to it. I guess restructure doesnt mean changing his contract to allow more room for players this year. But hey, change the narrative like you want to. And he already has one of the best olines and wrs in the league.
Cam has....1 wr? A TE who cant block, even the Bears didnt want him.
Brees actually earns his contract. It is a pretty steep contract though.
What? What are you even arguing? If you wanna go down the path of they're opening up space for their teams with restructures, uh, the Panthers can do the exact same thing with Cam's contract? Why are you assuming Cam wouldn't agree to restructure? Again, do you know how restructures work? In Romo's case, Jerry is basically saying "hey, we'll pay you out $16m RIGHT NOW, but for salary cap purposes, we are prorating that amount over 5 years, so that opens up $12.8m in cap space". You're telling me Romo would be like "nah, fuck that, I don't want that $16m payment right now." ??
Hell, this extension opened up $1.6m in cap room this year for the Panthers if you want to go down that route.
And the Bears were dumbasses to let go of Olsen, so I dunno why you threw that in there.
It's a good contract for the Panthers too, especially when you figure the NFL added $10 million to the 2015 cap. Cam could have asked for more based on that alone, but instead he took a contract that was inline with ones made under the previous cap. That is essentially taking less money to help his team.
Angry Panthers fan. So Cam is gonna sign this contract today and restructure it immediately.
Makes sense. Move along. Have fun struggling in the NFC south with a qb and a linebacker and nothing else around them.
E: i mean panthers dont have a history of shit contracts. Delholmme, signing 45 rbs to a billion dollar deal that ruined the team until Cam came.
They clearly know how the cap works.
Your premise was that Romo [and Rodgers] "cut money" to sign players to help the team. That's false. They didn't cut any money, it's just cap gymnastics. A restructure in no way shape or form equals a pay cut. Read this and then start commenting on contracts and restructures: http://mmqb.si.com/2014/02/26/nfl-salary-cap-explained/
And yeah, let's bring up the old GM instead of the new guy running things.
Have fun with Rodgers ripping apart your team year after year, uninformed Bears fan.

Hey man hes got Cutler and stuff to watch year after year of not winning an OWL
you guys act like insulting me over a team being ran by idiots matters to me? Bears are stuck in mediocrity until Ted Phillips is fired.
Rodgers is going down as a top 10 qb of all time, maybe higher, who knows.
You get all whiny and pissy that your team just signed a qb with a .500 record and one playoff win to a contract. A guy i actively root for too. You should worry about these stats:
Pass Blocking Ranking: 27th, Run Blocking Ranking: 15th, Penalties Ranking: 3rd
Good luck protecting your new contract qb with that line. The qb who played injured most of the last two seasons.
As a Bears fan with an overpaid qb, with no o line who, and said qb is constantly sacked, welcome to my hell.
Don't worry we signed Michael Oher. Blind Side baby!
Sorry to have gotten so riled up, shouldn't have taken that tack...but my point about restructures still stands!

Dolphins get the same crap about Tannehill but don't understand we had a terrible defense the last two months of the season, along with a terrible oline and Tannehill was top 6 QB the final two months but "LOL TANNEHILL SUCKS"
smh

I think it's cool every time Bears fans insult Cutler. Yeah he's a shit person and a shit QB, but it says a lot considering he's also the best QB the team's had in decades if not ever.
My point is that Cam earned his contract carrying his team, he's an idiot if he wants to win, because they cant afford to fix the team with thay contract. I know this from Cutler and hopefully our draft helps our problem. The Panthers are now where the Bears were 2 years ago, but you have a potentially more athletic qb.
Cutler at least made it to the end of the NFC title game with the shit team he had around him, my boy Cam is struggling to beat the NFC Soft.
Restructure/pay cut, he still defered money to let Jerry get more money for the cap.
I'm not insulting Cutler? I'm insulting his giant contract. Three guys in the nfl deserve that money, Brady, Rodgers and Luck.
Cutler is still my guy, and i joke im the only one in Chicago left on Cutler island. Thats fine, but Beaes arent winning anything unless Teddy is fired and Rodgers retires. Rodgers missed half a season and still made the playoffs.
Cajun, he had a Forte, Hester and Knox the year of the nfc title game.
Forte cant block, black unicorn cant either, no o line besides Long. Its a mediocre team built by mediocre management.
