From a lot of the pics on FB it looked like attendance was poo compared to last year. I hope they don't do the ticket thing again.

It's nice to see some positive remarks on Butler! Seems like he's been pretty quiet so far.

I think a lot of it had to do with the rain, not the ticket system.

Lou Young had better shape up. The Carolina Culture is fueled by smart players. Dude has already been warned by Rivera at least once about being smart. I know that he's trying to make the team, but how dumb would it be to hurt someone during practice with questionable play? 

The antics of young are getting old rather quickly for me as a fan, and that's just from hearing about them.

Young has only picked on the UDFA rookies.  I'd love to see him try out a late hit on Tolbert or Olsen.

Been going to Panther games and events since they came around and typically have a good time but Newton has made game day experiences and fan fest so much more fun for the fan, he brings you in on the fun. It's pretty awesome and incredibly rare. I had gotten to the point that I'd rather watch the games at home on TV but the last few years with Newton, he makes you want to be there and be apart of the experience.

We're pretty damn lucky to have that dude. He's a decent QB too.

"Between Artis-Payne and Wegher, the Panthers may not have to worry as much about an eventual Jonathan Stewart replacement"

And yet before next year's draft, every pundit is going to be saying that we need to draft a running back...

With 7 picks in the first 6 rounds, it's nearly impossible to think RB wouldn't be one of them.  We need more than 2 RBs.  Other than DE there's no other glaring need in the next 1-3 years.  The ceiling for CAP and Wegher is average or maybe a little above by NFL standards, and that's more than OK considering one was a 5th rounder and the other was an UDFA.  But if a 6'4, 240 pound, 4.57 40 freak like Jalen Hurd, for example, is there...we'll see.

Well the RB class next year is awesome and neither of those guys are are going to stop us from picking up another. If we're picking late in the first that wouldn't be a reach for the position.

      No, I'm starved for contention. If you can't see that and keep wanting to turn things like this back around on T-Mac, then you're just either being purposefully obtuse, or is a fan who is happy having 5-6 win seasons just because we're so used to the 3-4 win seasons and you like "just being better"

      You mean the guy who took over a franchise that hadn't had a losing season in the previous 4 seasons... who proceeded to get his team into the playoffs in 3 of his first 4 seasons, only to win 2 games in said playoffs, to then go on to having a 54-74 career record and never won another playoff game after those first two? Who then after being fired from that job, took over a team that was 30-18 in the 3 seasons before he got the job, got into the playoffs that first season, lost their first postseasons game, and then went on to have a 6-26 record over the next 2 seasons? You're literally proving my point by bringing up someone who's claim to fame is that quote. If you just play to win the game, you're never going to be a successful franchise.  You need to play to win the game while ALSO working to make your players better.  Having the former without the latter is a picture perfect recipe to become a stagnant franchise. That's how you work towards being a winning franchise who can contend in the postseason.  And sure, having a stagnant franchise that makes the playoffs every other season is better than what we currently are, but that's not what I strive for with our Panthers, I want to actually contend for championships in my lifetime.
