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.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
