Panthers are in football pergatory................to win or not to win...........that is the question. Either choice has liabilities that manifest as time goes on....

The average kicker in the NFL makes 2.5 million a year...................for that amount of money I'd expect myself to be able to make those two kicks on Sunday blindfolded. 2.5 million to miss those two kicks................. Good gawd how long to most people have to work to make a fraction of that in their lifetime? Oh he's under the pressure to win the game.............pressure??...........pressure?? Being a pay check or two from becoming homeless is pressure................not being a millionaire kicking a football.............. He lost the game after the rest of the team manage to put that win in his lap. One person didn't put the Panthers in position to win the game............but one person certainly lost the game after the team put it in his lap on Sunday.

College defense...............the ghost of Rhule continues to haunt after his presence is gone.

Too premature...................wait and see what the rest of the year brings before you crown him as HC or push the guy out the franchise.

This team plays like its trying to pound a square peg into a round hole................

He's Lovey Smith 2.0..............no!

You couldn't assuming Brady had one more year in him this season but the wheels are coming off over there and despite a few brilliant moments in his playing most of his time looks like he's washed up. This blow up on their part has opened up a strange land in which to occupy #1 in the division.

Reminds me of an old Richard Pryor joke.......he said one night after banging his wife, "I'm tired of you.....I got to find me some new pussy" and she said back to him, "If you had 2 inches more cock you'd find it."

What is really bizarre here is that if the Panther win it could set the pace to actually win this division.........and if they lose it could have just the opposite effect. This game as crazy as it sounds is as close to a playoff game that could ever be seeing it is occurring in the middle of the season.............that's just strange to think of it that way but it could determine is where the road heads in this division. A playoff implication game by two losing teams in week 8..................strange

They need to get a natural grass field and hire me to maintain it...............here's the lawn I created from seed back when I had a house..............

Panthers will figure out a way to win 5 to 7 games this year............miss any playoffs of course and as a result of finishing in the bottom half of the middle of the league thus missing out on the tanking draft picks. .......and as a result, risk repeating that possible fate again and again.

Any linebacker in the league can grab his jersey with one hand ......and pull his fanny straight down into the turf for a sack.............I've never seen such a wuss at that position on the field.

The challenge is the amount of natural soil/dirt that is under the grass to act as a cushion..............in nature there is an average of 30 inches of soil below the surface with 8 to 10 inches being top soil. On a grass football field inside stadiums these days there is 16 inches total with 6 inches being top soil. It offers far more cushion than any artificial surface but fall well short of the cushion that grass grows naturally on.

Very popular in the Buffalo NY area...........here's an asphalt modified racer out of that area sponsored by them.

I've never had any sympathy for people who can run and jump better than I can and as a result make more money in a year that many of us added together will ever make in a lifetime..........

Ahh pro wrestling.................the male soap opera viewing for this group.......

Very well stated................

That was a very well written and insightful article by Fowler.......... I get this out of it.......... Tepper's hedge funding risk mentally was in full bloom hiring Rhule as an untested NFL coach from the college ranks........... Rhule......seemed to trust his college coaching gut and didn't listen to more seasoned NFL personnel within the organization when it came to the hunt and negotiating QB deals. Finally, Tepper is a bit too much Jerry Jones like for me as an NFL owner through this QB saga and one must wonder what the long term implications of that might be for this franchise.
