I avoided gameday like I usually do to avoid the hysterics and constant complainers. Still If I look at the threads today I can't find anything that suggests we won. There is even one that is titled Our Biggest Obstacles to Winning Yesterday. Seriously????

I know the team isn't great and a win doesn't change everything but we are a game away from .500 with a good chance to win at home against Buffalo. After our preseason if someone said we would be 3-3 after our start I would be more than happy.

Then why is everyone so nasty and critical? It almost feels like everyone had so many negative things to say over the past 3 games, they can't acknowledge anything positive or even be happy we won.

This really is a most depressing forum despite a 2 game winning streak which could easily become 3 or even 4. Can't we lighten up at least until we lose again????

You can't live in the now and enjoy what you have if you are always worrying and predicting the worst down the road. It bad things are going to happen it will be soon enough. Until then we ought to be able to enjoy the win at least for a day or two.

Good post, I was wondering the same thing. As a Saints fan steeped in misery over the years, I've learned to savor each victory. There are some miserable muthF*&^ers on this board. It truly is amazing. When will you be happy if you can't be happy after a win?

I always love a win my friend but the reason why everyone is mad is because with how we are playing things won't matter at the end of the season. The same things are being regurgitated on our team and we are hardly beating garbage teams. We need to really change the mindset of our team on offense especially if we want a chance at the playoffs. So many teams in the NFC this year have a much better chance of going to the playoffs than we are. If we don't change the way we play we are going to have a high draft pick but with no draft pick to show for it. People are mad and they want to know why we didn't blow out the Tampa Bay Buccaqueers.

Well, our biggest obstacle to winning yesterday was Jake. It's sad, but it's true.

The defense has been a real positive for the past 2 weeks, I don't care who it was against. And the running game was beastly yesterday.

It's just so hard to get over how bad Jake has been. After the philly game I was very hesitant to call for his head and was patient to see how it plays out. But at this point it's undeniable that he's the biggest liability to this team. It's throwing everything off. Moore may or may not be the future QB, but at this point he's an upgrade. And that's sad. It's hard to focus on anything else.

I for one am happy with the wins and I do feel that aspects of the team are improving (defense and running game) but I will never be quiet about other parts of our team that are not good. To me complaining about the front offices lack of addressing the QB situation or the WR situation is part of being a fan.

I complain because i care so much. I live and die with this team from week to week and i guess that leads to complaints. Sorry

I can however look on the bright side and see that we are a player or two away from a potential playoff berth.

this is what amazes me about fans; I would've loved to have seen a Cardinal message board 5-6 games into the season last year. They got hot and went on a run. Any team has that capability. It should actually encourage you guys that you played like dogsh*t and still won. Would you rather be Philly today and actually not squeaked out a close one to a bad team?

If the Saints spank us like the Patriots did the Titans, how should we feel?

Im not complaining about us winning...I am just mad at how stubborn our coach is with Jake Delhomme. We were very lucky that the buccaneer's defense is atrocious against the run and we are all just not happy with an under performing team.

you got blown out one game right? Could've won the other two right? When you start losing like that, yeah hold on because the titanic is falling. I'm telling you, the Saints are very weary of you guys catching fire....those numbers for Jake are so bad though...

Jake has had 2 bad games and 2 pretty decent games. He is not the whole problem nor the whole solution. Offense is offense and yesterday we scored 28 points and had over 300 net yards. Our first down efficiency was over 50% and we actually went for it on fourth down and made it.

The liability on the team was not having all phases work together for the win. That was a liability again yesterday particularly in special teams.

Moore has shown no reason to believe he is an upgrade. He has potential nothing else yet.

      So, objectively, you'd say from a holistic review of Rico's performance and the team overall there were at least a dozen players on the team that performed at least as well if not better in their roles?

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      While you're correct, people are just sick of being told, "you don't understand this, you're dumb" despite what their eyes say. This applies to the Panthers and anything else in life. This board can be a miserable place, but this isn't the old days anymore because Social Media & Reddit have hijacked old-school forum users.  I have in the last year or so taken a massive step back from Social Media & Reddit. Deleted accounts on both, I only have X/Twitter now. But I was looking for an outlet for Panthers talk and I did not want to do that on X much at all. There are only two legitimate outlets for that I've found, here and SB Nation. SB Nation I used to partake in, but they absolutely bumble-f*cked the comments section, and I like the setup of the posts + comments, as opposed to article + comments. Also, as others have pointed out, being a Panthers fan has been a horrendous existence since Cam left. Just an awful crew of coaches, draft picks, trading away great players, etc. It's been miserable.  Ever since Tepper bought the team, I hoped that he commit to a full rebuild. He never did, he thought there were shortcuts and so did Rhule. This hamstrung us for years, and then he massively overstepped with the BY trade.  This ruined the team building, because there was no depth, and then it ruined nuanced BY discussions because of the insane haul we gave up. He will never live up to that, I think many people are finally wrapping their heads around that now which is good. The best thing for this board to get better is for the Panthers to win more, draft well, and to stay committed to crawling through this Andy Dufrense poop-pipe to escape the depths of NFL hell. It will be ugly and stink along the way, but you can see already this year if we commit to drafting then the team and the vibes can turn around quicker than you think.  I am extremely optimistic about the draft class this season, it's something to watch, talk about, and celebrate. It also gives Dan and I think by extension Dave Canales more of a leash, which I think we need to give them and grant them the time to turn this boat around.
