What I love most about this season.. It doesn't feel "magical."

Ahh, "magical season." In 2003 when the Panthers made the SB, that was a "magical season" I HATE that term. Loathe it.. See, when I hear magical season.. I think of Cinderalla, I think of a team that should be down and out, below average and they have their 15 minutes of fame until the clock strikes midnight and the magic ends..

Infact, I find it offensive when people say we are having a magical season. To me magical season means a team doesn't really deserve to be in the winning position they are but the storyline is good and it's all just magical..

No! This isn't a magical season.. This isnt 2003 or hell 2012 where we are a over achieving team in the midst of a "magical season". No this is a legit season of a legit good team that is built to be a dynasty for the foreseeable future. This isn't a magical season.. This is a REAL season.

Magic is slight of hand, as in the read option.

Magic is illusion as in play action.

Magic is misdirection as in QB scrambles.

Magic is making the impossible real as in the Panthers going undefeated.  

I don't think magical and legit have to be mutually exclusive.

I'm ok with magical. #keeppounding

Right, right, right, not magical because 12-0 happens every year. 

Oh that's right, we're ONE of NINE teams in the history of the NFL to achieve this feat!

To do it period is a feat in and of itself, to do it without your best WR ever taking a snap is in fact magical

IDGAF what anybody's got to say about it either

    • I wish I could gaslight myself into believing the same, but Eric Eager wasn't even mentioned until two posts before mine here on page five after the initial pivot to complain about Bryce on page one. Considering the views some of those involved have shared regarding PFF + Dan's involvement on Fitterer's team and... well... Regardless of all of that, Nic Scourton looked really good against the Dolphins. He was setting the edge well and even looked decent in coverage when required to drop back. He was destroying the right side of the Dolphins' OL and even got the best of the LT on several occasions. Seeing what Nic's doing on the field is likely what Evero was hoping DJJ could develop into when they took him. The team also isn't using him as much on special teams (hasn't logged a punt team snap since week 2 but is still part of the FG blocking unit). Completely different players and playstyles, but Scourton's motor and ability to remain constant while opposing OL start to gas out in the late game reminds me a lot of Charles Johnson.
    • I say he's a run of the mill starter. You say he has had a decent career. We're saying the same thing. I never had any issues with Shaq. My issues were with the Panthers in that one, we drafted a player in the 1st round at a position of our greatest strength when there were options available that would've provided us with more initial help. You make a move like that because you think a guy is special, that he's by far and away the best talent available. Two, after he had proven to be good but not great (basically a run of the mill starter) on the field, we turn around and pay him like he's a future HOFer. These aren't issues with Shaq. They're issues with the organization.
    • 😆If you're not elite or a potential HOFER, then LG calls you "run-of-the-mill" or "meh." Shaq has had a decent career---better than many longtime starters, but not everyone is built to be worthy of the Hall Of Fame.
