No matter how hard I try, I just cant hate the Patriots.

I try and try and I just cant. I know this is Panther blasphemy and a unwritten rule that you have to hate the Patriots if you are a Panther fan, whats harder to admit is that I might actually respect them. I will be honest, I hate the Seahawks way WAY more. I will admit it, I know its crazy and I dont even know why but I like the smugness and arrogance of Bellicheck and Brady, I like how they carry themselves.

I respect the organization, I like how they have this truely natural and calm confidence to them, I like how greatness is just routine to them. They dont run their mouths, they dont come off as fake, they are the poster child of how a perrenial contender should be. To Brady and Bellicheck, making the playoffs is just a given, every season they approach just like eating breakfast or brushing their teeth, they dont have a fake, QB like Wilson that has to cry and get emotional, they dont have cry baby WRs that call out fans for doubting them, they dont have a CB that has to run his mouth over and over and over again.

They simply just show up, and are great and go home, No fluff, no drama, greatness is just so natural to them. The Seahawks on the other hand are like the hot girl that was obese in High School and she has such low self esteem she has to keep telling people how hot she is and needs that constant reassurance, they have an inferiorty complex.

I know im in the minority in Panther land, but the Patriots just dont rile me up like most other Panther fans. Yes I know we had a devastating loss in the SB to them but live and let live. And for just the SB only, go Patriots!

I do not hate them either.  I respect their consistency but honestly, for the most part, I cannot bring myself to care about them one way or another.  WE play them once every four years but other than that they are just kind of there to me.

 

I actually like the Seahawks with the exception of their use of the 12th Man moniker.

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.

      Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.
