This is a statement I saw quite a few times in the game day thread and has been trotted out a lot in the past.

 

Fact of the matter is, When you have a defense that can stuff the run and force three and outs late in games you always have a chance. Cam showed that 5th year poise late. This team is forreal. Shame on all who turned off the Cardiac Cats.

This team is breaking the mold when it comes to what the Panthers can and cannot do:

Can't win after a week off. False

Can't win in Seattle.  False

Can't come from behind.  False

Can't win when key players are out with injuries.  False

This team is more stout and deep than any other Panthers team I can recall since their inception.

They are proving themselves to be among the best in the NFL.

This team does honestly lack the explosive players like Smitty who can score on any play from anywhere...but we do have good ball control and mid-range game so to speak....Lots of players who can catch the possession type 10-15 yard plays.

very good post. I agree. 

 

I think it comes down to two key factors.

Cam in his 5th Year. Has full control of the offense. Has poise in the pocket. Can make plays with his legs.

AND

Ron in his 5th year as a head coach. Old ron would have ran it and kicked the field goal to take it to OT. 5th year ron went for the win and it paid off. Really had this team playing at a high level. Deserves a lot of credit.

Oh come on... we won today but we are NOT a team that can win shootouts. We aren't. 

We beat a very flawed, screwed up Seattle team which was awesome. Don't fool yourself into thinking we are the type of team that can do this regularly. We aren't Green Bay or Atlanta even in this regard.

Seattle had a mix of athletes that matched up well vs. our offense. Those speed rushers from all angles really disrupted things for Cam . Not many teams can present that challenge to our offense.

no one said anything about winning shootouts. The argument was we can't comeback in games. When you are down by 2 possessions in Seattle then come back and win you completely shut that talk up. We've proved an awful lot today

Exactly, glad to see some killer instinct after all those years of playing it safe.

      Is Charlotte the worst sports city right now?

      By CamWhoaaCam · Posted

      Let it all out bro.   At the end of the day Charlotte fans just aren't that passionate as other fans. The Panthers and Hornets crowds are wack.    Go to a Canes game and you will understand this. Tell the family I said hi and Happy Father's Day.

      Dude you have no idea what you're talking about. Best place to live?  LMAO... that's your criteria...  Charlotte gets put all over those lists too... come on man... and those lists have zero to do with sports. I'm done after this bc I'm punching down intellectually here... The Panthers have been bad for 6 years now. You are obviously young and not overly educated based off the "dunks" you're putting out there that certainly are, so let me educate you today on the Panthers. The Panthers sold out for well over a decade straight. BOA has been as good an environment as there is when the team is good.  Fan support for the Panthers has been incredible when the team has even remotely reciprocated. The idea that Charlotte doesn't support the Panthers is utter BS. People in Raleigh have the biggest little brother syndrome of all time... Nobody outside of the Triangle cares about any of your "vaunted" sports team outside of Duke-UNC in basketball on a national scale. Sure, the Canes are great. But nationally, the WWE dwarfs the NHL in ratings. More people care about Cody Rhodes than Sebastian Aho... or anyone else in the NHL for that matter... I doubt less than 5% of anyone in this state outside of Raleigh even knows who that is... that's a knock on Aho who is a great player, it's just the NHL barely makes a ripple in the overall hierarchy of American sports. It's not in the same universe as the NFL or NBA no matter how badly you want to tell yourself otherwise. Raleigh is not a big-time sports city, no matter how much you want to scream into the abyss about it. Neither is Charlotte. But no one here is making such a nonsense argument... LOL it's good to be young and to be ignorant enough to be confidently wrong... WTF are you even on this board though since Charlotte is so beneath you? There is an actual discussion board on this very site for Raleigh sports since they are so superior...  Maybe it's bc I'm watching Idiocracy with my son, but your timing is perfect, my man... The dumbest among us have become the most confidence in their ignorance... God Bless America!!

      You do know the biggest military base in the US is located just an hour from Raleigh in Fort Bragg right? Military families are family oriented. A hour drive to games is nothing compared to traveling 3 hours to Charlotte.   Cmon man there is nothing happening in Western Carolina other than Charlotte. I only go west for outdoor activities and some nature/mountain views.
