After last night, the Texans and Panthers...

have the glorious distinction of being the only two home teams who didn't win or weren't at least competitive in Week 1. The Raiders look like they're going in the right direction (can't believe I typed that), TB was only down 6 at the half, the Browns showed some fight...

Of course, compared to Delhomme Schaub only threw a relative Marino-like single interception.

Does this matter? Why point this out? Because you have to do better by your home fans. Getting embarrassed at home is different than getting embarrased on the road. As a fan, getting an inferior product is one thing, but getting a more inferior product than almost every other team is quite another. We are ultimately consumers, and don't have to buy something that sucks.

This does not mean cease being fans or stop rooting. Not the point. But demanding better by leaving early, spending less on gear, etc. is well within our rights as consumers.

Ok none of this crap matters.

And it is also fun when the away fans are louder than the home fans. :D

    • No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.    
    • It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
