What if it was the Panthers relocating....

I remember the speculation in the teams down years, that JR would pull up roots and go to LA. Well the Rams are going and leaving the city and fan base blowing in the wind. They have been in St.Louis for twenty one years ( as long as the Panthers have been around).  

I can only imagine the hate and sorrow that the die hard fans are feeling upon losing their team. Not a good look for the SOB owner and the NFL. I know it's a business and money talks, but it just doesn't seem right.  If we where in their shoes, it would be awlfull for the state , city, and fanbase. RIP ST.Louis Rams.

Like you can't watch every Panthers game on tv? Congrats on living like the rest of us who moved out of NC

It's more than that. I'm not so sure I would be able to continue my dedicated fandom had they up and left the QC. Not saying I wouldn't but I can't say for sure, would definitely be devastating.

Assuming that NC did everything they could to reasonably keep them. I would feel betrayed as a fan, which means I would likely look elsewhere for a #1 team to closely follow and support. 

Once a team abandoneds you, I think it's reasonable to switch teams to cheer for. I moved out of NC, however I stayed loyal to the Panthers. 

I would probably still loosely follow them, but I would be done supporting them in any way financially. Let's hope that never happens!

Now they have to stay in Charlotte to retain your love? Can't move to Raleigh or SC?

If the Panthers ever moved then I would cease following the NFL for the balance of my natural life, even if Charlotte got a new team shortly there after.  When the Hornets moved and they gave us a new team I follwed the new one but I have never felt the same passion, and I was a lot younger then so it was easier to get back into it.

At this point in my life if a team of mine just up and moved then that would be that, much like when the NHL cancelled a season.  I use to love hockey, without it I found better things to do with my time and I have not even watched five games in the decade it has been back.

    • Been here a while but rarely post and most of them are smartazz. Mostly lurk just so I can sound informed while hanging out drinking beer in my neighbors garage. Amusingly a Huddle level of knowledge kind of makes you a subject matter expert. Thanks for that.
    • That’s similar as saying MVP Cam is the same as rookie Cam because his mechanics didn’t change. We’re talking about production.
    • In 2025 Sam Darnold had over 1k more passing yards than Bryce Young on 1 less pass attempt. Repeat that to yourself several times and let it sink in. I absolutely love it when people come on here and invoke Sam Darnold like some gotcha. Darnold is the physical prototype for what anyone needs in a franchise QB. All the physical tools. Few people thought he would put it all together on the mental side of the position. He used to make some of the worst decisions you would ever see. At times in the past he made up for that with absurd throws and athleticism. But make no mistake whatsoever no matter how you feel about our starting QB. Bryce Young is a completely opposite conundrum. He lacks virtually any and all physical tools and athleticism and his elite processing is really mediocre at best on a good day and horrific on a bad day. These are realities people should have already been addressing instead of quadrupling down in year four.
