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.

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      By frankw · Posted

      I like what Freeling brings to the table all around. If he is willing to put in the work he has an opportunity to be one of the better Tackles in the league down the line. Hunter Brazzell and Hecht are all premium additions but development from our staff are the key to unlocking them. Hopefully Lee and Wheatley will provide much needed additional depth to our secondary. Beyond that it's important not to get too caught up in draft grades. Many drafts over the years that turned out to be really good were not fawned over with praise. While some that were ended up being historical duds. Panthers fans ought to know this as well as anyone. In conclusion...

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      Maybe a bit of a homer take but I can't give us a grade lower than A.   Freeling was arguably the best LT prospect in the draft.  His athletic ability is off the chart and at 6'7" that can move.  It was a no brainer pick.   Hunter's key word is Violence. Putting him next to Brown should scare an offensive coordinator. These two give Scourton and Phillips plenty of chances to get one on one opportunities. Brazzell, another tall receiver with sprinter speed.  Our WR room is filled with tall talented WR.  Brazzell is going to give us a WR that can take to roof off the defense.  Basically Jimmy Horn with size. W. Lee III has a nickname of the Blanket. (heard this on the Beleav podcast with J. Stewart)  What a great name.  A great value in the 5th round. Hecht A strong, fast and extremely smart center. Many had him listed as the best center in the draft.  He's most likely a starter sooner than later. Wheatley A good safety in round 5.  Someone who could see playing time.   Kuwatch  I love this pick.  At minimum he will be a key piece on special teams and with some good coaching he'll see some packages where he'll play.  His down piece is he doesn't stay up in the running game.  Good coaching will fix this.  He reminds me a bit of A.J. Klein.   All these picks were great value.  I believe everyone of them were graded higher than the pick we took them.   Dan Morgan is IMO doing a great job turning this team into a good team with great depth.
