Re: Panthers Interested In Boller?
"I have nothing against Boller, but the conflict (and sometimes borderline hostility) that is demonstrated in the thread is a reason why Boller needs a fresh start."
Well, when any of us (borderline hostile or not) that post on ANY message board actually play a game for the Ravens then maybe the above mentioned conflict will matter. Until then, I'll go with the guys that know more then me(i.e. the people who actually work for the Ravens) and if they seem to think it's better to stick with Boller, then I'm all for itScrew 'em all

Re: Panthers Interested In Boller?
I would not trade Kyle Boller until it is clear who is our quarterback beyond next year. Kyle may not be great, but I think he has improved and he certainly is a serviceable backup, which every team needs.
I think fans need to quit bashing the guy. I realize he is a slow work in progress, but unless we got a high draft pick, like a second round pick, I would not consider a trade.

Re: Panthers Interested In Boller?
Byron Leftwich? Ugh, no thanks. The guy is a freakin statue.
I wouldn't mind to trade Boller for a first day pick, as I agree a change of scenery would benefit him. I also think a lot of players don't believe in him (my opinion), and it's obvious a large portion of the fan base don't. I really like the kid, and I want to see him do well, but I don't think he ever really had a chance here, and that's a shame.
IF they do trade him, they better sign a veteran backup to McNair, AND draft a QB of the future on the first day of the draft. JMO.Never get in a fight with a pig; you both get muddy, and the pig likes it...

Re: Panthers Interested In Boller?
The comments about Leftwich are funny. For the last 3 years most posters have been saying "we could have Leftwich instead of Boller!" Ignoring the fact that he just wasn't very good. Now that he has likely been pushed out in JAX everyone thinks he sucks.

Re: Panthers Interested In Boller?
PR, you make a great post. And I agree with pieces of it. However:
The players have no faith in him (I don't care what is publicly said),
Other than that, I think the Panthers would be a good fit for him. And no, I don't want Leftwich here. I'm pretty sure we want a QB that can actually move around.

Re: Panthers Interested In Boller?
Okay to give you this. The ONLY way I see Boller being able to salvage a career here is after the 2008 season, (let's call it the 2008 30-and-over-veteran purge, because that's what it really is). Also note that Billick's new deal is up after 2008 and he may not be here and a new coach may want to start fresh with a different guy. That is unless my theory of Neuheisel being the heir apparent after 2008 is correct as he seems to have a connection with Boller.
Otherwise, I think Boller deserves a break from this entire situation and a fresh start with another team. I feel the same with Leftwich. That kid was thrown to the wolves in the same manner as Boller, and he has talent.It's a new season! It's a new day!

Re: Panthers Interested In Boller?
not gonna lie, it's kinda funny how Grossman may end up being the best QB of that year's draft and we burned all sorts of picks to leapfrog Chicago to get Boller.....:bag:

Re: Panthers Interested In Boller?
Make no mistake PR, I agree with you on what you're saying. For reasons that I don't think are talent or potential based, I don't see him here when his contract is up. Maybe Boller himself is ready for a change and doesn't want to resign here. But a change in scenery I think would be best.
