Before you all bring out the clubs and chains to bash me, I want to tell you all where I am coming from. I have been following the Carolina huddle for a few years now and have finally decided to post for the first time. I have been an avid football fan for more than 25 years, with my orginial diehard team being the Dolphins. With that being said, anyone with past football knowledge knows the type of flustration I have delt with over that time period (Marino = no ring)(Jimmy Johnson = Tard), etc. I became intrigued in the Panthers in 2003 after Delhomme replaced Peete in the opener and led them to a win. I followed the team all year and all the way to the superbowl. This was the first time I felt a "spark" for pro football since Marino retired in '99. I have been a diehard panther fan since then. I go to 3 or 4 home games a year and watch every other game on t.v. in some form of the other. My sister even went to the superbowl in Houston in 2004, as many of my family also strongly support the Panthers. I know a lot of you will accuse me of being a bandwagon jumper after some sucess by the team, but that is not the case. This is because the Dolphins were my obsession until 1999, and I waited for 5 years to find a "new" team to follow. You have to admit, going 1 and 15 does not arouse a lot of optimism.

Anyway, I felt the this team left a golden opportunity on the field last year as they could have easily made and possibly won the superbowl.But that has already been beaten to death so I will now focus on the present. With the talent this team has, a repeat of last years accomplishments should not be out of the question, but after 3 pre-seasons games, I thoroughly think this team is in trouble. Can't stop the run, can't stop the pass, questionable play calling....I think based on the schedule....the Panthers may win 8 games, but I hope I'm wrong. This team so much reminds me of the 80's and early 90's Dolphins when ALL they had was Marino. If you don't have a complete team (including coaching), you will not succeed.

So now you all can bash me, thats ok, because I will keep coming here, mainly because, even though most posters make opinions or want to whine, I have found that this website is the most imformative.

Good Luck this season.

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
