Never Forget

I have never wanted us to blowout a team more in the regular season.  More than the Pats, more than the 49ers, more than the Seahawks.  I haven't been able to endure a single rewatch (even the highlights).  DESTROY the orange dilweeds.

I've wanted to see the Panthers beat other teams before, but so that they could prove something (ie: finally beating Seattle not once but TWICE last season). I wanted those Ws baaad. Really, really bad. I can't stand Seahawks fans that look at me funny when I ask them if they know who Steve Largent was.

Never though have I ever been seething in anticipation of the game until this one. That Super Bowl loss was brutal. The Panthers did themselves no favours and deserved to lose that game, but it was infuriating watching major calls go the way of Peyton's team (ie: Miller illegally batting the ball into the endzone on the first strip fumble, SO MANY PIs by the DEN secondary, and omg that Cotchery catch that was called incomplete). I hated it. I fugging hated it.

And I still do.

I want nothing more than to watch the +52 for last year's homecoming king get their asses stomped into the dirt.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
