Can’t believe Bryce Young threw it right into Sanders hands and forced him to drop it. What a bum.

Steve Smith the #8 receiving yds all time, #3 all purpose among WRs, #9 including RBs, #33 TDs, was just recently passed up for HOF in favor of Andre Johnson who trails him in every category, and our own fans will side with the trash media on it just because Smith wasn’t always nice. Every receiver in front of him who is HOF eligible is in. Not a lot of respect there. If you are remembering Cam getting a ton of respect I really wish I had lived in that world. Cam wasn’t even appreciated among our own fan base. A large reason for our lack of respect is our own fans and media. We have been more successful than any other newer franchise not named the Ravens and I remember years ago (before the Tepper losing era) having to argue with our own “fans” on the huddle claiming we were a less respectable franchise than the Jets. Our own local reporters and radio personalities admit that they don’t like the Panthers publicly because it is acceptable. Our own local paper hated Cam and it was acceptable. I’m not saying we should be respected after losing for 7 straight seasons. But until our fans stop kowtowing, self flagellating, and trashing our own team and players because it is the socially accepted norm (and it has been well before Tepper and Bryce Young), I don’t think winning is going to be the cure it is claimed to be.

Luke Kuechly is about the only player I can think of that has gotten the respect he deserves/deserved nationally. Otherwise…“Worst 5-0 team of all time…6-0…10-0…etc.” They gave Tennessee Karen air time on espn just to drag Cam. No comeback player award for TD. Peppers wasn’t respected to the level he deserved until he went to Chicago. We had a Super Bowl fixed before our eyes and nobody cared except Panther fans. The league forced our owner out over way less than Robert Kraft and other owners. We were forced to pay a DE on the franchise tag to not play for a whole season while the league kept him and us in limbo and that little rule was never applied that way again. This whole board banded together to vote on a stinking uniform contest just over the blatant disrespect by the media. They like us when we’re the plucky upstarts, that’s about it. I’m not so optimistic that winning has anything to do with the “respect”, or lack thereof, we get.

This is a popular take around here, but truth is we didn’t get much respect when we were a good team either.

Well yeah but just because it can happen anywhere doesn’t mean I’m going to take them someplace where it is basically 100% going to happen when it is avoidable. And to be clear, it’s not just the language that keeps me from taking them to NFL games, it’s that plus the drunkenness, fighting, etc. We go to baseball games and other sporting events all the time, it’s just unfortunately NFL games that tend to be the worst. Once they’re teenagers we’ll probably go. Edit to add: took one of my kids to get a donut a couple days ago and had to listen to some dude cussing up a storm with his co-workers in the donut shop. It happens. Sucks but it happens. Less and less common decency and respect around these days. I can’t imagine being an adult and being vulgar around a 6 yr old in a donut shop.

Lol hearing those Texans fans is pretty cringey. Gotta love that lady yelling “What the f-“ right after we see a kid’s head in the shot. Not that this behavior is limited to Texans fans, which is why I don’t take my kids to NFL games.

Only a few more days for these media hacks’ slander to come true. I wonder why they haven’t brought this back up. Could it be they were just butthurt over Belichick ending interviews and not treating them like god’s gift to humanity? Don’t let these self righteous little divas get away with constantly throwing bullshit around and relying on everybody to just forget.

Did they do that on sports science or mythbusters or something? I’d watch that.

Can you imagine somebody gets to where they can kick 80 yarders and we’ve got teams starting on the 35 now. Get the ball at the 35, run, run, run, fg.

Why tf would it matter if some backup ran for 1k in 2021 or whatever? Like clearly it’s nice and not nothing to have 2 guys who just ran for over 1k each this past season. It doesn’t have to mean Super Bowl, but it’s SOMETHING. Some of you really do be bending over backwards.

I don’t know why anybody ever thought he was good. I’m convinced the only reason he still has a job is the team hoping to get that compensatory pick if a minority coach gets promoted by another team. But he’s not getting HC interviews and so far the talk of him as a hc candidate has just been all talk by the media with no real substance. He’s never fielded a top defense as a DC, and the Broncos defense got better when he left, not worse. Our defense has only gotten worse with him as a DC, despite continuing to bring in guys that he wants, his ex players from other teams, DJ Johnson, etc. Go back and watch him put Fuller one on one with the opponents top receiver last year over and over. He’s closer to idiot than savant, imo.

Derwin James only had 1 interception last year on 7 passes defended, he doesn’t catch everything.

I think maybe I misread the tone here. I was reading as if you were tired of people shitting on others as in us shitting on the writer of the article, but now I realize maybe you were saying that against the writer of the article instead. If so, disregard my response to you since I can’t edit it.

Official unofficial kickoff at 7, local news until 705, commercials, coin flip 715, commercials, brief shot of teams mulling around on field and close up of Shadeur, commercials, unofficial official kickoff 735, full Shadeur coverage, commercial breaks for all Panthers offensive possessions.

? I don’t know why you’re asking us as if that linked article written by a Cowboys fan isn’t what this whole thread is about. What does a Cowboy fan care about Tet? Exactly. That’s what we’re all wondering. Go ask that Cowboys fan who cares enough to write a whole cope article to try to poo on him when they didn’t even have the opportunity to draft him.

Put him on the hands team… …I’ll see myself out.

It is definitely interesting to see some of you setting yourselves up to have a meltdown over a preseason game. I predict this place will be a shitshow.

That reads like a 3rd grader wrote it, I wouldn’t pay it much attention. The whole premise is based on Joe Person (calls him Joseph, lol) saying that Tmac is adjusting to the physicality of NFL corners. Also says Tmac was picked #12. These summer breaks are too long for these kids, get him back in school.

TMJ was terrible and straight up quit on routes. That definitely loses you games. You may not see it the same from the couch as the guy who actually put in effort to get open and dropped a pass, but not running your route and the QB taking a sack or giving up on a would be touchdown loses games just the same. Just saying. For all his faults, XL is light years better than TMJ.

Not surprised at all at you trying to force that conclusion. I’m extremely over this conversation or whatever it is. Can we agree on a Go Panthers? Hope they crush the Browns.

Yep, and tell me how many posts I made pooing the pick in the “Kon Knueppel Looks Terrible” summer league thread. ZERO. Having opinions is ok, it’s the constantly raging about them. But keep demonstrating your complete lack of understanding of anything I’m saying. Again, when you live in a world of absolutes…

I don’t know why you keep responding to me it’s like you’re having a totally separate conversation with somebody saying completely different things. I’m not mad, I was responding to somebody other than you and didn’t mention you at all. Since you’re so enlightened you really didn’t have to stoop to my level and start quoting me and trying to tell me what I think. I’m trying to live in my world of sunshine and rainbows I can’t handle all this reality.

I have my doubts, tbh. Any new bandwagon fans who are on the younger side probably won’t be looking for internet message boards. We’ll probably lose a lot of old huddlers who may have otherwise returned because the password recovery doesn’t work. Many won’t return who left for reasons other than the team sucking. Others will be driven off by the ads and system drag. But maybe somebody actually comes along and takes care of the place, that could help.

You saying Dalton was better or is there somebody I missed?

You’re just reinforcing everything I said. It’s these posters who live in the world of absolutes that have dragged the huddle into to the mud over the past few years. Not wanting to dwell in constant negativity = shooting sunshine and rainbows from your ass 24/7. Not constantly whining about Tepper = being a mouthpiece for Tepper. No in-between. There is no room for normal conversation in that world. We shouldn’t have to explain such simple concepts, it is a complete drag, but there’s just not enough huddlers left who are sick of that poo because they all just left once this nonsense got empowered.
