Along with many of you, I've been a Panthers fan for a long time. I've endured the highest highs, like almost beating the Patriots in the Superbowl and a 15-1 season with another Superbowl appearance, and the lowest lows, a 1-15 season and 2-14 season with trash rookie QBs. Even the middle can be miserable...all the years of the Panthers finishing 7-9 or 8-8 and just narrowly missing the playoffs.

2017 is a good season and one to cherish. I got to witness in person, the Panthers beating the Superbowl Champion Patriots in their house, at field level, on the visitor side this season. One of my favorite moments as a football fan for sure. The Panthers had some wild swings this year, but here we are in the playoffs, against a division opponent. Logic says the Panthers lose today, because the Saints just seem to have the Panthers number this season. But that's why they play the game, anything can happen on any given Sunday.

Win or lose, it's been a great season. Next year might be good, or it might be bad. So let's just enjoy today and hope for the best. Keep pounding.

Next year is an even number year, so the odds say "bad" 

Really hope we can finally break that trend 

Even more reason to really appreciate the game today. The Panthers had some really lucky breaks this year to get to this point. The pendulum might swing back next year, who knows. Let's hope that luck continues today at the very least.

Agreed. We were spoiled by 2015. When we kick off we will be one of nine teams still alive for a shot at a Lombardi. There are 23 other fan bases that would kill to be playing in our game today. 

Oh reason. You just earned yourself a brand new pair of cargo shorts.

Next year Cam will still have the same OL and WR issues he has in today's game. Next year, Stewart will be yet another year older, and CMC will still be used incorrectly. Next year, the defense will have all aged another year as well, and Safety will still be a weak spot. 

Next year, RR is still the head coach, who will not adjust in game, will misuse timeouts, will not prepare the team well enough for a smart opponent, and will still pull together between 6-12 wins so the treadmill will keep spinning, while we waste the prime of 2 generational players' careers. 

Sad really, but true.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
