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.

      That's why I said stats aside. I lived in CO during Allen's college career and didn't have kids at the time so I watched most of his games. Bruh, I'm telling you. Balls just spraying all over the place. The type of throws where you're honestly trying to figure out who he was even trying to throw that one too. It was crazy. Richardson was inaccurate in college but at least you could tell who he was trying to throw it too. He threw a lot of early in the game Cam Newton type balls where it seemed like he was just a little too amped up and everything was a few feet high.

      By Seltzer · Posted

      A lot can change over the next week, but here is my best 53-man roster (note: I'm just basing this on guys on the 90 man roster currently). Obviously there could be trades/ waiver claims/ FA signings.   Offense (25) QB (2): Bryce Young, Andy Dalton RB (3): Chuba Hubbard, Rico Dowdle, Trevor Etienne TE (4): Tommy Tremble, JT Sanders, Mitchell Evans, James Mitchell WR (7): Tetoria McMillan, Xavier Legette, Adam Theilen, Jalen Coker, Hunter Renfrow, Jimmy Horn, Brycen Tremayne  OL (9): Ikem Ekwonu, Damien Lewis, Austin Corbett, Robert Hunt, Taylor Moton, Cade Mays, Chandler Zavala, Brady Christensen, Yosh Nijman    Defense (25) DL (6): Derrick Brown, Bobby Brown, Ashawn Robinson, Tershawn Wharton, Sam Roberts, Cam Jackson OLB (5): DJ Wonnum, Pat Jones, Nic Scourton, Princely Umanmielen, Thomas Incoom  ILB (5): Trevin Wallace, Christian Rozeboom, Krys Barnes, Jon Rattigen, Claudin Cherelus S (4): Trevon Moehrig, Demani Richardson, Lathan Ransom, Nick Scott  CB (5): Jaycee Horn, Mike Jackson, Chau Smith-Wade, Corey Thornton, Shemar Bartholomew    ST (3): LS: JJ Jansen  P: Sam Martin  K: Matthew Wright    Would like to hear everyone's thoughts

      He was a more accurate passer at 56.2%. That's what I mean. Even by outlier standards, this dude was inaccurate. Closest I can recall to something like that would have been one of those GT QB's like Reggie Ball. Career 48.6% passer.
