So the question Panthers fans want to know is this: Why wasn't David Carr among the Carolina Panthers cuts on Monday.

   Good question.

   I can't quite figure it out, but here are some very logical explanations:

   1. The Panthers are hoping somebody around the league didn't watch any Panthers games from last season and might offer them something in return for Carr. Good luck with that.

   2. They plan to wait until after June 1 to cut Carr so they can prorate the remainder of his signing bonus over two seasons instead of one. The Panthers already designated Dan Morgan and Mike Wahle as post-June 1 cuts and teams are only allowed to designate two. So, they may have to wait with Carr.

   3. They couldn't get in touch with Carr on Monday.

   4. They are considering keeping him (OK, maybe the Panthers didn't watch game film of Panthers games).

   Anyway, before you get too upset, Carolina fans, remember it's a long off-season and there is plenty of time to part ways with David Carr. It will happen at some point, one way or the other. It may take weeks or even months, but it will definitely happen. It makes no sense to keep a player you have no faith in.
