A series of interesting thoughts crossed my mind this past week.  You guys know, only one team at the end of every year can hoist the trophy as champions.  As fans of our team, and fans across the league, we cheer and hope our team will be the one in the limelight.  Now mathematically speaking, everyone has a greater chance of not winning the big game, no matter how good your team is.  Nonetheless, winning it is the ultimate goal.  All that said, as a Panther fan, do you really prioritize winning the Superbowl above all else?  If only given two options for how your team performs for the next 10 years or so, would you rather see the Panthers win next year's championship and then having losing records for the next nine years, or would you rather see the Panthers have 10 seasons of 14-2 records (even a couple of perfect seasons) but fail to win the Superbowl in that span?  Keep in mind with the second choice we could even reach the Superbowl and have close games, but not win it.

This is just something I want your guys' opinions on.  To get in your head about how you view your Panther fandom.  As a treat, I came across highlights of a game I treasure back in our 2004 season. (A very interesting season for me as a fan)

Given the choices, you have to go with the one Super Bowl win. The second scenario would be like the Atlanta Braves of the 90s, but without the one title win mixed in. Or like the Buffalo Bills making and losing 4 Super Bowls in a row. I can't imagine 10 years in a row of watching playoff games and every single year it ending in disarray, especially after being that dominant in the regular season. Hell, I can feel my blood boiling right now thinking about how much it stung to watch us lose the 2015 Super Bowl when the other quarterback couldn't throw the ball more than 5 yards down the field. To experience that, but for 9 straight years. Screw that.

      Not sure how much he was a long term piece of this team.   Sucks to not have him as part of the rotation.   Looks like it's Lee Hunter time.

      I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.
