  1. Robert Isray announced he was moving the Colts and packed their stuff the same day. Enjoy the wins when they come.
  2. You’re right about one thing its not hard i make my entertainment choices based on the things I enjoy. I enjoy NFL season game days where the Panthers win marginally more than days they don’t. We have family and friends over most game days and the party is much more fun when we notch a win sorry but I’m just not ever pulling for the team to win for a better position in the crap shoot that is the NFL draft
  3. If we’re eliminated I want the wins more. The season is already a disappointment and if I’m not pulling for wins why bother to tune in?
  4. As a fan who doesn’t gamble, who doesn’t let my fandom define me to my friends, who doesn’t get too high or too low based on the team’s performance Give me wins. Sunday afternoons are a little bit better when we get them. There is no guarantee I’m going to be here for the next super bowl or five years from now I’ll take the wins today thanks.
  5. Self described anti-Bryce dude wants us to fail to take a major step forward Yeah that lines up.
  6. no doubt but flip that. The current system insures that there are "regional" games in the early weeks. maximizing the reach of playoff football. If all of the WC weekend for a conference took place on the west coast they are reducing the "reach" of their hype machine.
  7. Very cool. Only 2 changes Id make. Week one should have been Jake to Rickey and week 13 should have been X Clown
  8. I dont buy the idea that it would create more competitive games Given this: Seed Current Format Record Proposed Open Seeding Record 1 Lions 15–2 Lions 15–2 2 Eagles 14–3 Eagles 14–3 3 Buccaneers 10–7 Vikings 14–3 4 Rams 10–7 Commanders 12–5 5 Vikings 14–3 Rams 10–7 6 Commanders 12–5 Buccaneers 10–7 7 Packers 11–6 Packers 11–6 That would mean Wild Card round would have been Eagles (14/3) v Pack(11/6) Vikings(14/3) v Bucs(10/7) Commanders(12/5) v Rams(10/7) Instead of Eagles (14/3) v Pack(11/6) Bucs(10/7) v Commanders(12/5) Rams(10/7) v Vikings(14/3) Then with the reseed it would mean that highest remaining seed would always draw the lowest remaining team.
  9. Feels a bit like a change that’s not based as much in fairness and good of the game and more to pacify owners in strong divisions.
  10. One game at a time We need to beat the (insert next team) next week We need to focus on the (insert next team) If we play our brand of Football we will be ok We are playing to win next week, then the division, then we'll see, once you get to the playoffs, everyone is 0-0 We'll be looking to put our guys in a position to win ETA 17-0 baby!!
  11. Im not trying to start anything or make any statements beyond how frustrating it is when its just a blind link to a site some people choose not to use. So in that regard thanks for the OP. Maybe that will help.
  12. Using that as a source drives traffic and revenue for a site that has made a choice to be inherently political. People talk about keeping the politics out and yet source content from a site that cannot be separated from their politics. Its particularly cool when all you get is a link with not even a headline so you dont know if your clicking into a story about the Panthers or Shakira's fuzzy sock preferences
  13. or ya know... maybe post from sources and platforms that are not so nakedly political
  14. Spending 100-150k to grease a client that is going to sign up for 10M+ on a 10year contract is just good business.
  15. Used to be THE venue in NC. Everybody played there. In the 90s shows shifted to the amphitheaters in Raleigh and Charlotte. Purpose built for music, lower overhead, and part of national groups like Live Nation. Greensboro couldn't compete and lost out on lots of money for upkeep/upgrades. It was always better for sports and specialty events but Id be hard pressed to count all of the bands Ive seen there.
  16. All this energy on who an old rich dude is banging is really weird. just got this odd jealousy stench to it
  17. is it an excuse that the ice melted because it sat on the counter? If we dont improve on the D (and things are looking up there) then it wont matter. We will still be losing more games than we are winning and Bryce isnt enough to lift the team above that
  18. Until we do something about the D its not going to matter. If the D cant get stops BY9 cant get stats. We dont have these offenses (yet) Team-Record-Def Rank-QB 2011 New England Patriots 13–3 31st Tom Brady 2013 Denver Broncos 13–3 19th in PtsAllowed Payton Manning 2008 Arizona Cardinals 9–7 28th Kurt Warner and Larry Fitzgerald. 2016 Atlanta Falcons 11–5 27th Matt Ryan and Julio Jones. 2018 Kansas City Chiefs 12–4 24th Patrick Mahomes.
  19. Reminds me of talking to a lot of folk I know "down east" Good for XL
  20. Too many examples of head cases and just down right bad guys in the NFL to think that Shedeur's "fall" was anything other than the fact that teams either didn't need a QB or thought there were better options to get them where they were trying to go. I think all of the off-field stuff is a tiebreaker when the on-field stuff makes two picks interchangeable.
  21. This came up from out of nowhere and sent me down a hole of FNM. Dudes were amazing and Angel Dust was just peak
  22. As to the OP.... Kid is a dick and the Falcons IT team needs to get to work on their Infosec policies
  23. I would have thought the NFL would give the prospects a contact list of numbers the teams would use to contact them during the draft.
