Listening to this Jalen Ramsey Soundbite about Seahawks - Do The Panthers Lack Confidence?

Recommended Posts

When asked about Seahawks and their accomplishments, Jalen pretty much said this is a whole new year. Stop hyping people up

The point I'm trying to make is teams like Hawks, Pats, Steelers or even a team that's picked favorably to beat you, you do too much and make mistakes. We were picked against in the media and went out and made mistakes

When I think back to the 2015 team, Roman Harper used to say when talking to media, "we're the better team" quite a couple times. I believed him. The team KNEW. They didn't think or believed that statement was true, they knew it was true. After that emotional win in Seattle, Panthers came back and beat the Eagles, didn't let us down, I brushed off every team after honestly. I knew, I even brushed off the Broncos. We was beating teams, letting them comeback... whatever. We went down 14-0 and Saints had all momentum, never once panicked not as a team, and not as a fan. If we go down 14 points TODAY??? Forget about it. That says a lot. Sitting here 8-4, much different thoughts going into games this year. Its obvious that team was full of confidence and swagger. So sitting here with a winning record, what's the difference between those two seasons just 2 years apart? Is it just being audacious or just the talent was flat out better on that team?

I like this Ramsey kid.  He has that prototypical lockdown corner attitude and obviously has the skills to back it up.  

To answer the question though, Bradberry has shown some skills in patches, but I don't think I've heard him speak.  Ever.

The whole team is missing the spirit and mojo from 2015. I'm not quite sure why and how tho, other than Norman leaving and possibly Cam getting older and experiencing all the injuries from last season and this one. 

We dont really have any outspoken in your face personalties on defense and I think thats part of the reason why the secondary has been shredded so much this year. Sure some of it is the ability of the players, but for sure its also personality types. 

We pretty much have a bunch of nice guys besides Cam . We don't have a Steve Smith or Josh Norman on the team. I guess supposedly Shepard had a big mouth in the pre season and maybe in practice, but he doesn't back it up in games so I doubt hes very talkative when everythings on the line. 

You also have to think about what JR wants in his players . He probably worked with Gettleman and Rivera to make sure they selected for the most part well behaved dudes that fit his preferred personality type.

I remember when Harper would say that. He knew we were going to the bowl game midway through the season. That team had confidence. It had what folks call swagger, and that is a lot more important than Gettleman, people on here, and people in general believe. We lost that, as well as, a great deal of talent when Getts pulled that franchise tag. Bradberry’s cool, but he doesn’t have IT. Ramsey’s got IT. 

Oh well, can’t keep reminiscing on 2015. It’s 2017 about to be 2018.

Team lacks confidence because there’s been so many who have told them to “tone it down”, whether it’s JR, Ron Rivera, the refs & other players (when players were bashing Cams head in and the refs were allowing it), and the fans (Panther fans included). 

It sucks seeing all these other teams out here dancing & having fun on the sidelines, because when our team did it, everyone had a problem with it.

I'm laughing my ass off about ppl quoting Harper and the swagger right before blaming Gettleman for pulling the franchise tag on JNo like Gettleman wasn't the guy that signed Harper and before that Mitchell.

What have you done for me lately league.

    • Another layer to that is Ive seen Seattle has been in the market for CB help this off-season.   Michael had a higher PFF grade than Horn who got 15 games this season. He wants to be here too, that's a huge bonus for any 5 win team that had awful pass rush.  The 7th rounder Michael Barrett didn't last long on Seattle, he was cut before the season I think and ended up on browns PS. He's already been on 5.......5 teams within one year.......
    • You have gave the board some recent gold via posting. Heres my poor attempt at the truthful play-by-play of the time during post- I pulled out the old laptop to do my shitposting and check on websites. Open the huddle and see this new thread. Open thread and read CRAs post, {inner thinking, oooOOooo this is my lane and I got this}. Make sure not to scroll even to the 2nd post. 23% of current neurons still firing start up and two names appear- Captain and Josh....... about another 43 seconds past "O GOD" it's July 4th weekend and I got medicine to pick up. (If the laptop didn't give away my aging, the meds should...) I need to split, think long panther careers and the hint-  Ryan Kalil was a late 2nd and Pro bowls(even all-pros too) he's got to be OLman and Mikie Minter is among the all-time Panthers career leaders. Drop my post. Scramble to get keys, wallet, and phone. Check my phone- its 17% battery.....fug I now have to raw dog the pickup line and put the phone on charge.... Flip flops, sweat ringed filled hat, and shades acquired. Get in my pos rav4 and think about not running the A/C. Pull out the drive way and reach the 1st stop light, A/C is wide open. I check my shirt to see if there's any new stains on my house shirt, bush off the Bojangles salt that I see.... Neurons re-fire and focus on the comments CRA made that no one would get this....... Dang IT, that means it isn't Ryan Kalil or Mike Minter! CVS is close, but I know its impossible I get back withing 10 minutes to change my post and my phone is on the charger. {Think you monkey, at one point you were a draft nerd}. Reach the CVS line, by some grace its not 5 cars deep during 5 o'clock traffic hell. Im second in line after the car in front of me both turn in, they have to go back and forth to line up while Im a pro for that geometry. Neurons finally reach peak performance as Ive re-thought draft classes. Think obscure and unknown 7th rounders with long careers. Some Sunday/Monday night member berry fell out of my Melon, Will montgomery during the players intros for washington. I thought he out of the league and was shocked to see him still playing around the 2015 years. I do a goggle background check and that refreshed memory. Pick up the meds and enjoy the sweet smelling cool CVS air. Driving back and check in on one of the local bums at the big stop light, wow he's got a new fancy rug. Think about all the old food I got and need to start giving it away and rethink it. Reach home and post a follow up and I know Minter is wrong too, I check the draft history and see Robert Mcclain. Too late, but that would have been my guess....open CRAs link and get "upset" at the DBs name.    
    • THANKS my guy! Keeping up with this threads theme, if I view a thread and there's only 20 posts and some time passes. If I see there's one new post and read the name; @Dave Gettleman's Shortsis among the chosen few that I will reopen that thread just to see what you posted.    Thanks again, plus not just a scout, thats scotty mccloughans son?!?!? If not for the deep claws of booze, scotty is among the best talent finders this league has recently had. Last I heard he ran a consulting business. Caden could be one of those who's on a early path to being a GM in the future. I was a big fan of his dad, dam shame about booze demon ruining his career.
