Panther Fans Will Get Their Team Back Now


Anybodyhome

Recommended Posts

So now all the hype is gone, the vast majority of people cannot remember who lost the Super Bowl a year later, Carolina's weaknesses were exposed and, as expected, Cam is getting blasted in the media again. 

The bandwagon is emptying, the part time fans are leaving and the draft is three and a half months away. Carolina Panther fans who have been around for a couple decades will have their team back now. As of late last night, the Carolina Panthers are just another NFL football team quickly forgotten in the aftermath of the game and Peyton Manning's soon-to-be-announced retirement. They will once again be that small-market team with a lifetime W-L record of around .500 with a mercurial and moody QB who happens to be black (but that's not the reason he is treated differently than his peers by the press), a pretty damn good defense and a relatively small following of loyal fans. 

The Panthers lost the game, but Panther fans got their team back- the team that got hijacked about 12 weeks ago when someone noticed they were winning.

A lot of our false starts yesterday were because it was literally a Denver home game  yesterday. Numerous times they even played the Bronco sneering which I found to be very odd. We were WAY outnumbered in that stadium yesterday and it was a sad sight to see

Agreed, that was a quasi-home game for the Broncos.  A lot of the false starts were caused by our O-line having their lunch handed to them though.

don't worry, they'll be back and you all should hope they are.

 

they show up win a team is winning. it's 100% guaranteed to happen.

 

if it is happening, then that means things are going incredibly well. it's a sign we should all be hoping for.

and it's also the way long term fans are made. we all started out as bandwagon fans (unless you are one of the few generational fans). most bandwagon fans will leave, but like i've said many times before, there will be some that get hooked. we picked up a lot when we went went to the superbowl before. we picked up more when we drafted cam. and we'll pick up more after this season, despite the loss.

i will say it was a whole lot nicer having more people cheering for us and giving us positive attention, even if it was/is going to be short lived.

Can yall get off of the 'cam is treated bad because he is black" bullshit?

The media gave him the MVP... quit crying about stupid poo.

I didn't say he was treated "badly." I said he was treated differently. And I'll stop making that point as soon as you can legitimately explain why you think he isn't treated differently.

    • It's definitely a historical issue at QB but to be perfectly blunt, we also don't do a good job of really developing almost any position if you look at the last decade or so. I tend to be on the side of that being far less a development issue than an evaluation deficiency.  I think we are in the situation at QB2/3 recently due to the overall roster being absolutely abhorrent and the QB classes being quite thin. It is harder to justify another Matt Corral(or several) when you can potentially get a real two deep contributor at other positions.  But, it was a lot of hard work to get to the point where are roster is so incredibly bad that luxury picks literally are not in our vocabulary.  This is the reaping what you sow portion of our history.
    • That is what I meant about our front office. They are like someone filling out a March Madness bracket based on preference of uniform colors and mascots. There's no rhyme of reason to some of these fugg'n mind numbing decisions they make.  They go all in on these flimsy-@ss prospects and are gun shy when it comes to more solid prospects.  It's literally maddening and the reason I stopped being so emotionally involved in this team. Heck the only reason I'm active on the board today is one, it's my day off and two, it's cut down time.
