So Glad the NFL isn't like the NBA

Durant going to the Warriors is like Cam leaving us and going to the Broncos. Coatailing to the team that just beat you in the playoffs (in our case superbowl) and leaving your own title contending team behind is some weakass beta sh*t.. NBA is a joke. Cavs and Warriors will no doubt be in the Finals the next 5 years. Glad the NFL actually has parity and is not predetermined who will be in the superbowl.

On another note, I know @Montsta literally shat his pants when he heard the news lol

Why do you think you're so important that you can make a thread about this in the Panthers section when there's already a thread for it in the Hornets/NBA section?

 Didn't know, don't care.

I agree.  I enjoy the parity in the NFL.  Of course KD can do what he wants and I'm sure he put alot of thought into the decision but still.  Superteams aren't good for competition in general IMO

People are so pissy that they missed the main part of my rant which was the NFL actually having competitiveness and parity each year instead of having superteams. I don't hate KD for the decision. I just think it's a weak move for a superstar. It's a very easy decision if you really want to win. But I love that the NFL and their players somewhat hinders making superteams because of ACTUAL rivalries and cap.

I hear ya.  I think Durant had a real shot to bring a ring to OKC.  The Thunder were finally clicking in the playoffs this year and Bllly Donovan looks like he can adjust on the fly with the best of them.  Pretty impressive for a rookie coach.  I loved KD on OKC...

The NBA is crazy all around though.  You've got bench guys getting paid like NFL starting QBs.

I'm genuinely happy for him and his family, but  it is kind of a 'hop on the shoulders of a giant' kinda thing.

    • I mean, I get why the media and some NFL and Carolina fans are saying that we don't have a real chance, but as many Huddlers should know, we won't know what we really have in this team until probably late September or early October at the earliest. And I'm not trying to be a homer, I'm just looking at things historically. Obviously I'm also looking at Bryce's "palatable" improvement the last half of last season (including being the catalyst for hanging with and nearly beating the Super Bowl participants), and the new additions that we've acquired overall. I'm also looking at the beginnings of a culture change--even if perceptibly subtle--to some degree indeed may take a foothold if things start falling the right way. But, overall, I'm still cognizant of the realization that things could just go south and that perhaps that Bryce could revert and flop, or that D & D (Dan and Dave) are not the answer, but I still am not ready to say "we're far away." Hell we could be close, albeit with growing pains, but even if we're on the course to bring legit in 2026, then guys like Ramsey would be welcome additions this season. That's just my take on it. I don't think we'll know that we're far away until some point in the season. If we can compete in the South...who knows?
    • You guys remember when the narrative on here was that Bryce would be chronically injured in the NFL due to his size and Anthony Richardson would be super durable due to his? You remember when the narrative was that Bryce was physically incapable of throwing a ball further than 20 yards in the NFL? You remember “I’ll stop complaining when he throws for more than 200 yards and looks like an NFL quarterback”? You remember when 60 sacks was his fault and not the offensive line, slow WRs, and terrible scheme? Pepperidge Farm remembers. It will always be something for some people. Whatever insanity they come up with will be quickly dropped to move on to the next thing. Bryce could have an MVP Super Bowl winning season and they would complain that we can’t run the tush push with him. It will always be something.
    • For the Panthers fans still low on Bryce and demanding that he be a top-10 QB this upcoming season: What stat(s) will you need to see? Not the vibe you want, but rather what does he need to be top-10 in specifically? Passing yards? Completion percentage? Win-loss record? PFF grades? EPA? CPOE? Asking because this was asked before and... well... it ended up that the folks down on him didn't care about the numbers as much as they cared that they just couldn't get passed his size regardless of how he performed. It would be nice to get a straight-forward answer to that without the usual deflection and redirecting.
