Crowd Yesterday Was Electric

I don’t know what you all are smoking. I was at the game as I am, for all home games 

it was about 70% Panthers fans and 30% Giants

in today’s NFL, that is a good and normal attendance ratio

its the way it is

Buy a ticket and add to the Panthers numbers if you want the ratio to go down

Should be far more concerned with that defense that could not  stop a 100 year old man in a wheelchair than this false issue or our all pro right guard who stunk up the joint yesterday or that abysmal 2 mon drill ending the game

I was there, our crowd sucked. It was mostly Giants fans and the Panther fans were mostly quite the whole game. 

It was hot as fug but it didn't stop the Giants fans from out doing Panther fans when on defense.

It was a huge turnout for Giants fans. I'd say 50/50

On the replay, the guy going for the ball made contact with his head and it made a violent jerking action, but he was going for the ball not trying to hit Funchess.  The next guy from the side hit shoulder first.  He did make contact with his head after his body hit, but not hardly at all.  I think the referee saw his head move from the first guy and thought it was the guy from the side.  This isn't as good as the replay they had on TV, but it's showing the same thing.

Talk about a biased article written by a Giants supporter. When you come in from off the ball and contact a receiver from the side with your body to the upper body area the penalty is automatic. What do you think a defenseless receiver is? One who doesn't see the hit coming as he is looking for the ball. Funchess got hit in the upper body by a defender who was not the primary defender. The was head to head contact for sure. It was plain as day and a clear penalty.

Yes... for those who were at the game.. it was and at times electric.  There were several times on offense though where the Giants fans were so loud if felt like a road game.  Overall though again the number empty seats is still way to many.  To many PSL owners and brokers are eating their tickets or the fan base is still not enough here to fill the place up.  For those who are on this board and want to go to games... if prices are to high on the various websites just go to the stadium on game day or still look online; be patient and buy tickets at a fair price.  Then if needed, moving around is easy.  

Note: yes, this pic is the seats on the sunny side, but that is still lots of empties and I have pics from every game this season and they all look the same.

Sorry I was talking about 31 not Collins. I got them mixed up. When Funch got hit by Collins, 31 was lunging forward and his helmet his Funch’s helmet. To me, that’s who the penalty should have been on.

That is who I was talking about, the safety who came in and crunched Funchess not the primary defender. If they called it on the wrong guy that was the refs issue, but it was clearly hitting a defenseless receiver and a penalty. And it should have been called and it wasn't incidental.

I was shocked by the number of Giants fans there. (I was at the game). At times the offense probably felt like they were playing on the road there was so much noise.  It was embarrassing.   Bet Tepper was impressed.

New Yorkers are in every major city.

And they don't send their best lol

      something to feel good about in the offseason..."could be something special brewing in Carolina"

      Then don't tune in. It's really not a hard concept to understand, if your making your decision based on your own personal needs/feelings as opposed to what is best for the future of the franchise, then it's a you problem, not a Panthers problem. When the season is already lost, every fan should be rooting for the same thing.  The team plays hard until the final whistle of the season and keeps improving as a team and individually, but in the end, we still come up short and lose games, and preferably because the other team beat us, not because we screwed up and found a way to lose due to our own fault. Look at it this way... If we are up 1 or 2 points with 3 seconds left in the game and the other team is lining up for a FG.  Beyond the joy of victory or the disappointment of defeat, what impact does the other team making or missing the FG have on our team the following season? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING Except where we draft and what teams we play due to our finish in the division. The players and coaches on the team would have the exact same level of improvement and learnings about themselves individually and as a team whether the FG is made or missed.  The ONLY difference in the end is the record in the standings and if the win or loss number changes. If you want to argue if making the playoffs to lose in the first round or just missing them is better or worse, that's totally fair and I can at least understand the other side of it.  But in what is already a lost season, if you're not hoping your team plays well but ends up losing, then you're cutting off your nose to spite your face.  You're hoping for a moment of happiness at the detriment of the franchise's future, and in turn, you're basically then happy for a moment to only set yourself up for future further disappointment.

      If we’re eliminated I want the wins more.   The season is already a disappointment and if I’m not pulling for wins why bother to tune in?

      Two things terribly wrong with this post. First is that not one time has myself or anyone else agreeing with me said that the team themselves should think that way or try and lose for positioning.  Never once have I suggested the team should purposefully lose games, ever.  I honestly can't understand why people keep saying this in posts, not one fan has ever said the players should or would purposefully try to lose. And second, is yes, that has happened and it's happened very recently.  The 2020 Bengals were 4-11-1 and then were playing in the SB the very next season.   And while it might have been 2 years later and they didn't quite get to the SB, the 2021 Lions were 3-13-1 and then the 2023 Lions were up 24-7 at halftime of the NFC Championship game. The season between those two? They finished 9-8 and only just missed the playoffs. Which is why I keep trying to compare us to the Lions in where we are at in our re-build.  Throw out Bryce's rookie year with the Reich staff who just didn't work out and he looked god awful.   This past season when we were 5-12 in Canales' 1st season is that 2021 season for the Lions and their 1st season under Campbell.  This year is their 2022 where they grew a ton and Campbell's culture building was clear, where I'm saying we'd likely be better off in the long run if we go 8-9 or 9-8 and just miss out on the playoffs (which is still a significant improvement from last year).  Then our 2026 is their 2024 when we have a chance to be a real contender after adding a few more pieces and our key players having another year of experience under their belts.
