When Johnny went down....

The way a lot of people feel about Johnny Manziel is the way a lot of people feel about Cam.  We don't feel the same way (most of us) but that's what it is.

 

Thats probably why everyone gets so pissed at the biased, unfair slamming of Cam sometimes.  The reason those articles get written is because they push the numbers.  More people dislike Cam than like him.   Same reason the media made Manziel a golden calf.   It pushes numbers but with that level of hype he has to be amazing to live up to it.

 

Opposite for a guy like The Golden Calf of Bristol.  If the same thing happened to The Golden Calf of Bristol  that has happened to Cam tthe articles would have read :

1.  And on 2nd day The Golden Calf of Bristol arose to lead the Panthers from the brink of elimination or

2. The Golden Calf of Bristol wills his team to victory

3. God healed Tim to from broken back to win the Superbowl etc..

 

I feel bad for Manziel,  they are going to tear him down like a false idol.

Most of the fans I heard in my section were Brown fans cheering for Hoyer to go in. I don't cheer for injuries but honestly I wouldn't have cheered anyway. I was more worried that Hoyer would come in and play better than Manziel. Johnny looked rather poor when he was in and not much of a threat. I am glad it was only a hamstring.

Some of you guys are purely low class if you are willing to cheer over a players injury. You are grown men acting like children and you should be embarrassed. I am for you. Now please go switch allegiances to a team that you would fit in better as a fan. A team like the Saints fanbase. A team without any class from the front office all the way down to the fan base that just cheered a possible injury to our Qb 3 weeks ago.

the cheering noise was made by Panthers and Browns fans alike. A few cheered because it was a good hit,some cheered when Manziel was able to walk off without serious injury,some browns fans cheered when Hoyer went into the game,so it wasn't that we were like Saints fans,cheering the fact someone got injured.

This is what happened.

I think it was a big misunderstanding. The cheers were for the hit and not because he was hurt.

I was there and the laughing didn't start until he got up and went back down. Yes there were cheers for the tackle but this was different. Plus I don't think anyone thought he was truly hurt but instead just shaken up and had to sit down but it still wasn't a good thing to do. Edit - P.S. plus I think once most saw it was more than being shaken up they got silent. It was a knee-jerk reaction to a QB that everyone thinks of as a joke.

Don't waste your time.

 

Panther fans are full of class, despite observations by you, me or Cam himself. Panthers fans lower themselves even more by being in full denial, thinkign they're better than that. But they arn't, that's the truth. It is what it is, I'm just glad Cam thinks the same and says Charlotte deserves better.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
