When we make a big game like the super bowl again, can we all learn a dang lesson and not be such over confident "we can't lose" and "xyz team sucks" idiots as fans. I avoided saying it all week but there is no better way to jinx and hoodoo your team than by talking smack about how much better your team is and how easily we should win. I've read far more posts than not filled with crap about how easy this game would be and "we're a horrible matchup for Denver, this will be a blowout" bullcrap.

 

Every single one of you that talked that crap should look in the mirror and accept your blame for this horrendous dump the Panthers just took all over the field. We are a young franchise and with that comes the need to learn and grow, the team themselves learned some hard lessons, this one should be ours.

I know I've lead a blessed sports life but in my 30 years, without being a bandwagon or fair weather fan, I've witnessed 12 national or world championships amongst my major teams (not counting national squads). One thing I've learned is that you don't jinx your squad and amongst those fan bases I've rarely seen a fanbase so blatantly arrogant about their chances of winning (well outside of Yankees fans) at least not on the boards I visit and amongst my friends.

 

But hey, the Panthers have lost two and y'all seem convinced I don't know crap when the majority of you were the very posters I'm referring too who were just as confident that we "couldn't lose" sooooo... What do I know.

I'll be honest that I was talking a lot of stuff because I felt Peyton wouldn't be able to do anything on our defense.  I also said the only way the Broncos would win this game, was if their defense could score touchdowns.  I was bragging and unfortunately, was right about Manning playing like crap and the Broncos' defense scoring points.  Now I feel like crap.

    • I look at it like get on top of the situation. Stay ahead of it. If it costs you a year of not drafting a starter at number three WR in the first so be it. We need new blood there in 2027 if not 2026, and need to get some OL on rookie deals.   At the same time the big picture is considered, we have a QB that has yet to earn an extension and you can go glass half full if you want but he had about half the good games that he needed to have. Fewer, IMO, but the point is he is not a lock to earn an extension.    Which would really put next year’s number one in play for QB and take OT off the table. So I think it needs to be on the table this year.

    • https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-offensive-line-success-why-building-through-the-nfl-draft-is-the-key   Conclusions drawn This article took a deep dive into evaluating recent offensive line trends regarding the draft and free agency while incorporating team success into the equation. Here are the biggest takeaways:   The best offensive lines in football (PHI, DET, TB) were built through the draft in the early rounds Other teams (most notably LAC) are following the same approach in team building Offensive line is something a team should target in the early rounds (1-3), as the success rate significantly declines in the later rounds both in the short and long-term Offensive tackles have a higher success rate through the draft than interior offensive linemen, regardless of round Acquiring free agent offensive line does have its benefits, particularly for elite units filling one hole. Interior offensive is typically the way to go Top-end offensive line talent is far less likely to be available via trade or free agency compared to other positions year to year, only emphasizing the importance of the draft   My words: we were forced to make some big signings on interior after years of poor OL drafting and neglect. It worked but isnt sustainable. We need to get right. Drafting tackles high is a successful formula. We need to start now to have any hope going forward.
