Next week is gonna be nuts

This week was just a warm up. The real Super Bowl hype starts on Monday.

No more off Sundays between then and the game. The feelings are just gonna keep building and building right up until game time. Fans who are already having a tough time concentrating now may as well just phone it in next week.

And the Panthers are gonna be everywhere on your TV screens. You'll see story after story after story after story. Come game time, you may know as much about these guys as their mamas do.

It was already surreal. By Saturday night, I'm not even sure what'll be the right word to describe it. The word may not even exist.

You ready for it?

NFL Network was just getting on its feet the last time we went to the Super Bowl. We were actually part of the first Super Bowl of the NFL Network era.

Now for the next seven days it's essentially the Panthers-Broncos channel.

Has anyone else noticed the coverage is definitely shifted toward the Panthers?

I don't get NFL Network at work but ESPN is 80/20 easy.

I don't remember the 2 week wait for the sb in 2003 well at all.  I remember waiting until 6:30 on game day and thinking the game would never start.

Is there anything memorable from the week leading up to that game for you?

Btw, I was curious today and looked up to find we were 7 point dogs to new england in sb 38.

Panthers are far more interesting than the Broncos.  could you imagine the snooze fest it would be had it been the cards in the superbowl?

People are just now really sering the Panthers and realizing just how cool a team this is. There will be a good few loud mouth and opiniated detractors,  but for the most part I see this as just the beginning of the Panthers takeover of the nation.

The more I think about it I don't really see the Seahawks losing a lot of their bandwagon, I just see two large bandwagons emerging and taking over, us and the Seahawks. People are going to be either team seahawks or team Panther. The AFC is just going to be that other group that sends teams to play either the Panthers or Seahawks in the superbowl (which will usually mean us).

Excellent post.  I keep thinking about how crazy it was in 2003.  It will be that intense X 5.

Who are these unknowns? was the question for the weeks. The Pats totally respected us, rest of nation not so much, they just didn't know us. I remember lots & lots of maps, where was Charlotte? The favorite flavor was Cajun, the new medical term was Cardiac.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion in Here)

      By CRA · Posted

      PJ's completion % was 63% when starting games in Carolina.  Which I believe is better than Bryce when starting.  And again, 4-3 as the starter here and the LONE QB Carolina has been able to actually win with in the Tepper era.  If you ask a gambling gunslinger to come into blowouts.....they are going to go down in a blaze of glory.  Which he would do.  Yeah, he isn't good.  And gunslingers are supposed to have rockier stats than checkdown QBs.   So....why does PJ Walker have a better comp % as a starter than Bryce Young.  And for every knock you want to make about PJ, you can find something or a skillset that PJ does better than Bryce.   I didn't say PJ had good field vision.  He doesn't.  Tell me about Bryce after he comes off the first read lol.  Let me repeat, PJ Walker is not a good QB.  He is NFL depth and an in house arm.  Bryce Young doesn't belong in a convo w/ Jake and Cam.  He belongs closer in a convo with the backup caliber QBs Carolina was forced into playing.  Which isn't just PJ Walker.  But Kyle Allen.  Moore.  Guys like that.

      Oh I see what you meant by memory. I will trust my memory, I have looked a a lot of those ball charts for Bryce and they trend a general pattern. They thing that has changed that I have noticed more recently is the reduction in the bunching of behind or at  the LOS passes over to his right.  Aside from the quantity of throws recently since the running game has become a more dominant factor.

      Yes but you basically said you are going from a quick skim of those charts without doing the same for Bryce and/or Andy. So you are going memory vs. snapshots. That's not going to be a very comprehensive analysis.
