Weren’t we offered two firsts just a year ago and now we are hoping for this trash? If this franchise isn’t the most incompetent in professional sports I’ll eat my fuging shoe.

I guess Ben Johnson was overrated by many.....

 

I'd have Cannales at 2 or 3....

I think everyone balked at his asking price. Maybe he bought into his own hype and thought he’d get a sweet Chip Kelly type deal.

I literally LOL’d watching the Redskins go from Rivers to Quinn

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss. 

Reading through this thread looks exactly like it did when we hired Rhule due to his youth, and then again when we hired Reich due to his experience. This guy will also poo the bed and I imagine the thread when he gets fired (O/U is at 25 games and I’ll take the under) will also look just like the Rhule/Reich fired threads.

I remember when the argument this was a bad year to chose a QB…that was a thing here. CJ has been great but damn revisionist here.

We chose correctly in 2011. 2023 we chose very poorly. It’s a coin flip in the NFL and poo happens.

And now this...

I think I just heard ominous music playing

This would suck for no other reason than ESPN has the worst NFL broadcasts in my opinion. Same as watching an NBA game on ESPN. It’s a lifeless broadcast and cheese AF.

Whitlock got bodied. Career over. 

I think Whitlock thrives on controversy every bit as much as Stephen A. does. No one in his orbit gives a poo about what SAS says any more than anyone in SAS orbit cares about Whitlock. Much ado about nothing IMO but it’s crazy to me how much Whitlock gets under SAS skin. SAS career is light years beyond Whitlock so why he even gives him the time of day let alone say how much he hates him and will never forgive him is wild to me. I’m sure there is obviously a lot more to it but it’s an oddity for sure. 

Mix this with ESPN’s golden boy calling Jason Whitlock a fat bastard, a piece of poo, and a devil, and it really shows how ESPN has turned into TMZ with less talent or facts. The whole network is an absolute joke.

I miss Stuart Scott.

Really? Last place with no 1st and a roster lacking talent with no HC and a terrible GM. It really feels like rock bottom…

Wait til this time next season. I don’t think we win a single game next year.

There needs to be a 100% rebuild of this team. Front office, coaches, and players.

Just blow it up and start over.

Bruh I’d fire the janitors, the security guards, the food service people, EVERYONE. 

Jon Gruden. Fits right in with this poo show. Let’s do it!!

Every fanbase has a ton of fairweather fans and if the team sucks they won't be interested or will turn their fandom elsewhere. But those fans will come back if the team is good again. Look at the Hurricanes -- win the Cup and have several great years, great fanbase. 10 years of missing the playoffs and the fanbase seemed extinct. Now sustained success with 5 straight playoff appearances and a few deep runs and the fanbase is bigger than ever. I don't think we'll see a significant impact in the sense of current fans leaving for another team outside of those fairweather fans who will come back. But what we will see is less young fans being developed which will impact the fanbase 10-20, etc. years from now.

Fair weather fan is a bit of a misnomer though. I’ve been a fan of this team through some remarkably shitty seasons. Sports fandom should be like a marriage in that it is a two way street. As fans we have managed to judge each other by how big of fans we are, how often we go to games, how much menu we spend on merchandise, etc. 

Reality is though, that the apathetic nature of the team has led me to realize that there are a lot of other ways I can use my  time that bring me a lot more enjoyment than this poo show. I still love the Panthers and can never see myself rooting for another team with any measurable level of heart or enthusiasm, but if your spouse is doing absolutely nothing to contribute to the marriage, it’s hard to fault yourself for looking for love in other places.

you're a long time fan as well... this ownership group has really alienated the long time fans who stuck through many bad seasons

I do chores on Sundays now and golf. Read about the Panthers game afterward. I won’t even spend the $400 for Sunday Ticket on YouTube to watch let alone what y’all spend. No excitement, no direction. Just a rudderless ship of sadness. Panthers are the worst team in professional sports and are only getting worse. Sad times indeed friend!

1995 here. Family name on the statues. 
 

dad and I decided today not to renew. There’s been talk of me taking them over but I don’t know how this team recovers moving forward with tepper here. 

Spent my Sunday installing permanent Christmas lights for the wife. They look fantastic and I’m really excited about them. Didn’t watch a minute of the Panthers game. Damn shame, as my Sundays used to REVOLVE around Panthers games.

What we really need is an owner whisperer.

Well at least Tepper has hired on his young trophy wife in an official team capacity. And like so many brave pioneers before her, when she realizes she doesn’t have to be married to the old billionaire for herself to be a billionaire, she will divorce him, take half the team in a settlement, some typical allegations of impropriety will surface and the outrage mob will force a sale. I figure another 4-6 years of this before the team gets sold again. My vote is for the Saudi’s. Say what you want about human rights abuses, the guys know how to throw money at a problem to fix it!

I love how excited everyone is about firing Reich. Like its really gonna make a difference 

Which is ironic because the last time I saw this level of excitement around here was when Frank Reich was hired on as the young QB whisperer.

Cheap ass vacation. Not much at all. 

Especially flying out of Oakland on southwest. My wife doesn’t jam me up much on little trips like that, especially since she gets big trips regularly. We are going to Cabo in a few weeks and I am taking her to see Taylor Swift in Japan next year. 

Just now, PantherFanInPhilly said:

 

Haha!

At least when they move to Vegas I’ll have a built-in excuse to go to LV a few times a year. I can only take my wife to see Adele and Miranda Lambert so many times…

In fairness, there isn’t exactly a Steve Smith to throw to for Bryce, and the Cam rookie year oline would like HOFers next to the current offensive line.

Oakland A’s, supplying HOF talent to other teams for the past 25 years my friend!!

meh, current set up has college football on a horrific path in the big picture.   Ruining what made it great.

it just going to be really shitty version of professional football at it's current path.   At least the relevant top of it.  

It was always flawed.  They are now are going to ruin it. 

I’d love to hear your expanded thoughts on this. What about the game currently do you think is going to be ruined? I ask seriously as I don’t watch CFB outside of some Stanford games and I don’t know what rule changes are making it more like pro football and are going to ruin the game as it is for a lot of people. I ask because you’re not the first person I’ve heard say this. 

I used to be die hard for my sports teams. Like a loss would ruin my day. I’d schedule EVERYTHING around games. Then the Oakland A’s gutted everything and got rid of players that are MVP candidates and are moving to Las Vegas. The Panthers poo the bed always. It’s made me realize sports fandom is more like a marriage then a one sided obsession. If the teams I am married to are not gonna work on the marriage and keeping the spark alive, then why the fug am I? I won’t cheat and root for someone else because my heart simply isn’t in it, but my interest is certainly fading. I’ll always love these teams, but planning my day around them instead of living my life? Those days are loooong gone for me brother!

No thanks. Mr. "Punt to Tom Brady when my career is on the line" makes Rivera look like Sean McVay. Not to mention how our defense got worse under Wilks.

A lot of it is simply talent too. Steve Wilks is the DC in SF and they are fire. Our players are all poo unfortunately.
