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.

Yeah I'm glad were not like those big market teams and their stupid bandwagon fanbases and trophy cases stacked with Lombardis

"Your fan base has bandwagoners!" Is the go to cry for fans of losing franchises

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.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
