  1. This fanbase didn't have patience with Cam Newton or Jake Delhomme our only successful QB's in team history idk why you would think this would be any different. It's the same across the rest of the league. Instant reaction is what makes American sports the big draw it is. Social media only makes each sport more money. Between the two of us ask yourself how much you've evolved since Cam. Only one of us is trying to sell Bryce Young is criticized bc of rednecks when he and Cam Newton could not be more different as men. Honestly it's an insult to Cam for the hate he received to even try to make that connection.
  2. Most people will love just about anyone as long as they're a winner. Even some very flawed human beings who have played and continue to play in the NFL because of the talent they possess not the content of their character. That's all people want at the end of the day. All these "well I'm a better fan because I don't criticize the team" takes are nonsense. If anyone is here after about 30 damn years of no consecutive winning seasons I'm not going to tell them how to react or not to react to more embarrassing moments. We're starting Andy fuging Dalton in the home stadium of one our former arch rivals who already have a Lombardi trophy to hold over our heads while all we have to look back on is an NFC championship rout followed by a Super Bowl loss. Hopefully Bryce Young takes all this to heart and comes back on a mission. Or things could go the other way. I've come to expect either as a Panthers fan. We'll see.
  3. I know you saw the posts. You're still ten years later jumping on anything about Cam but you couldn't find the time for the Stroud hate? It's because you pick and choose just like any other fan. It's called bias. We all have it in some form or another. And furthermore the race angle for Bryce when he played for Alabama of all places and has had enough hicks to fill a country music concert in his corner who were also trashing Stroud and Richardson is hilarious. Enjoy the game today brother!
  4. Yooooo this is the biggest crock of poo I've seen on here in months. It was you and your boys who kept saying CJ was a mental midget and said nothing while his character was attacked.
  5. I like Deion. I didn't think they would lose that badly but everyone eventually gets handed an old fashioned ass whooping. Learn from it and use it as motivation.
  6. It's the Hornets even if we make a trade we'll probably end up with the short end of the stick. Mitch is past his expiration date we don't need him making anymore desperation moves anyway. On a side note I guess our boy Kai Jones isn't doing too well and he isn't very bright based on some of the random behavior he's been posting on social media. Typical Hornets foolishness.
  7. Young still has plenty of time and he's only 22. But right now present day beyond the obvious issues with our receivers and our coaching staff some of the questions on Young are showing direct correlation to the pre-draft questions regarding his ability to make certain throws. There's just no way someone with an unbiased mind can look at his numbers and not think back to his proday and refusal to throw at the combine. There were red flags like it or not. We overlooked them because we bought into the narrative that Stroud basically has the football IQ of Sam Darnold and Bryce Young had "elite" processing and decision making. Maybe both of those things are still true and will come to fruition in time who knows. Of course one of us could also hit the mega millions lotto tomorrow too but I'm not gonna hold my breath.
  8. I do agree some people are going overboard. But there's a difference between being critical and just being completely bitter. And at the end of the day no level of boot licking is going to change our front office and ownership from one of the worst to one of the best.
  9. There was plainly obviously a level of steering the team toward Bryce Young. The Tepper's brought us Matt Rhule zero winning seasons Scott Fitterer Teddy Bridgewater Sam Darnold and Baker Mayfield. But Dave and his wife are suddenly pro scouts? This always had a high percentage of ending poorly. You let the football minds run the show. You don't turn the process into a sideshow to get your wife a photo op.
  10. It's the conclusion many people came to when watching his gametape. Well people that weren't immediately yelling "but OSU QB" or "but he has the greatest receivers in the history of college football". The kid has terrific arm talent. He hung in there against Georgia. These were the things we wanted to see. The results are not in for either QB by a longshot. But the very important physical intangibles you either have or you don't.
  11. First of all didn't say jag. He is a "good" starting QB. Miles better than Trey Lance isn't saying much. Better than Jimmy? In the sense he takes what the defense is giving him sure. I just finished reading a fluff article about him on one of the 49ers fan blogs. The big thing they kept repeating was how "elite" he is on intermediate throws (20 yards). He is a more decisive and accurate Teddy Bridgewater in a Shanahan offense. He is winning because of the way it is constructed around him and the weapons he has to work with. One of the most loaded defenses in the league helps. But is his talent what you would consider special (elite) that can get them over the jump to win a Super Bowl? I don't see it. But they will undoubtedly be in the playoffs.
  12. Uh oh we got one. How's that Purdy jersey fitting?
  13. Shanahan really has some of ya'll thinking Brock Purdy is something special. We saw how that hand it off or dump it off to McCaffrey/Deebo bullshit went down in the NFC championship.
  14. What Dave Gettleman did to the Panthers roster after a Super Bowl appearance is criminal. But. He actually had success and got us there. He still shits all over Fitterer.
  15. Somehow Fitterer still has some believers here as strange as it sounds. Guess some folks enjoy not having a winning season.
  16. It's still a long season but so far Stroud's traits are transitioning to the NFL just fine. Those 3rd down numbers remind me of Newton though. He was damn good on third down for a long time as well.
  17. Same. I'll be keeping tabs on the score though. No matter how awful they may be I'll at minimum keep up with the season of the Panthers and the Hornets.
  18. How can anyone expect to have a knock your socks off interview for the most important hire of your franchise through zoom? I think it's because we were impatient that was just an excuse. All we had to do was wait until the Super Bowl was over. Just foolishness.
  19. The only silver lining to this fiasco is I know Tepper is fuming. I think it's hilarious. If Reich and Co keep embarrassing Dave I wouldn't put anything past him if things get bad enough. I mean we're starting Andy Dalton. It's either going to go well or it's going to be a steaming pile of poo.
  20. With what he's managed to do with Jimmy G and now Purdy anything is possible I suppose. Must be nice eh.
  21. I agree Sam has the physical tools. Idk if even Shanahan can save him though. Eventually he will do what Sam does and force a baffling throw. I still can picture that dart into triple coverage against the Giants.
  22. Idk man I think you're doing the same thing with me you were doing with Varking in a recent thread and you were mistaken there too. You're chasing shadows. Hey I hope you're having a great Friday though!
