Official Panthers - Packers Gameday Thread

Our goal for the season should be trying to scrape together an 8-7-1 or better season. Even if we make the playoffs, we aren't doing jackshit and I would rather not go out in a humiliating way like we did last season. Just get the back-to-back winning seasons thing off our chests and go from there.

After Seattle, assuming 3-4-1, with a bunch of division games on the horizon, this is completely within the realm of possibility.

Difficult to see it in the middle of this game, but it's still out there.

Stewart shouldn't even be playing. Hell the other RB's been running harder anyway. They deserved to play more.

Hey, I don't mind a blow out loss. It happens. But at least give yourself a chance to win in THIS game by doing the right things. 

 

More worrying: It gives you less faith in Rivera and Shula's decision making in future games.

 

You're down 28 pts with the clock winding down. Why are you worried about kicking a FG and running the ball?

I've been saying this for a few months now...there are two coaches, two faces of Rivera. There's Ron Fuggin Rivera who doesn't know time management or how to light a fire under someone arse and then Riverboat Ron who is an aggressive bad ass who takes poo into his own hands.

This year we've barely seen Riverboat Ron. We've seen the dumb poo who think 3-28 is alright when it could be 7-28.

We are a soft team with a soft owner and a soft coach. That's the cold hard truth. I'll rep till I die but damn..

I honestly think a lot of it was just trying to make sure defense wasn't going to have to go back out there...

Think we need to quit this deferring crap until the defense proves they can stop a wet paper bag

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
