Can we send a collective "WAKE THE fug UP" message to the Panthers?

The Panthers obviously need a swift kick in the ass from the head coach down to the towel boy. They slept walked through the game against the Lions on Sunday after getting ass-raped by the Steelers the previous week. Rivera inexplicably gives the team the weekend off after one of the most humiliating losses in franchise history, then the team unsurprisingly comes out flat again the next week. Now all I've seen at the press conferences is Ron Rivera and the players STILL exuding this bullshit "everything is fine" attitude with the season quickly slipping away from their grasp. A loss to Seattle this weekend drops them out of the playoff picture.

Can we as a fanbase send them a collective WAKE THE fug UP AND WIN message? I think they need it. This team needs to get angry before the season is lost.

Couldn’t hurt.

Fans can do whatever they want to support the team, of course.

But when it comes to the players, if the desire to win, the fact that this is their job and the hefty paychecks they're getting aren't motivation enough, they should probably be replaced.

If the team needs a wake up call that the coaching staff can't provide, then the coaching staff needs to go.

The fact that’s Ron wasn’t pissed about the Steelers game made me very concerned. The angriest thing he said was “poo happens”.

I think we needed to loose a little hate to say it but we play our best football when we have to or our Back to thevwskm mentality. So bring we started off hit not really normal of a Ron team we've relaxed like Ron does with a 10 point lead and cruised a little basically how our offense performs with a minimal lead I see similarities. Now Teppers about to heat his seat up behind closed doors because the new owners got good management skills it seems. And presto aggressive smart desperate but organized Ron will show up.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
