Panther fans showed out well last night.

Its been a rough end of the season and nothing has gone our way. I will say with ALL that has been going on Panther fans showed out last night and the crowd played big into some of the defensive stops.

I was worried with 12 minutes to kickoff the stadium looked 1/3 full but right at the anthem everyone piled in at once.

Even if we aren't improving on the field the gameday experience IS improving each and every year.

 

Keep Pounding.

The crowd on the CMC pass, the Jackson return, the incredible fumble was absolutely, insanely, nuts.

Last night should've been one of the more special wins the Panthers have had and something they could hang their hat on and enjoy this offseason, and we went out there the gave the game away in the clutch with the same mistakes. 

Really frustrating.

 

The rabid booing of Morestead every time he went out after the flop is one of my favorite moments as a fan. Huge shame.

Yep... was surprised last night (shouldn't have since it was a Monday night v Saints) but was because the stadium has been very empty throughout the season.  Last night was the fullest it has been all season in my opinion and mostly all Panther fans.  Was not due to other team buying up the place.

I was there along with my whole section of PSL owners for the most part. Truth we have been there all year and will be there on Sunday against Atlanta.  I like many have just decided to enjoy the atmosphere despite the problems on the field. I have really enjoyed McCaffrey this season for example. And I can say I enjoyed the defense for the first time in 3 months.

Somebody must have bought up all the unsold tickets because starting at the beginning of the second quarter a ton of people in street clothes starting coming in in waves.   NFL can't have empty stands on Monday Night Football.

On further reflection it could have been people waiting outside to get a $20 seat to see Nelly at half time.

In several seasons of being at every home game I've never seen this before.  I know our section is usually no more than 85% full - even with playoffs - and last night there wasn't a single empty seat by half time.

The stadium was in full force causing false starts even and issues with their offense. 

I hope the players and FO value and appreciate this enough to keep it and build a winning team.

Gonna suck if I’m able to lay down across the seats and take a nap like I did in 2010.

I thought our fans were pretty good last night. Once they were all able to get in. Probably the loudest game of the season.

The craziest poo happened to me last night. I was sitting in a different section than normal and when I got to my row I was in seat eight, so kind of the middle. We were on offense and a play was about to happen, seats one and two in my row were open so I sat down real quick so I wouldn't make anyone stand to let me in while a play was happening and so I wouldn't block anyone's view. The guy in seat one in the row behind me - an older guy wearing a Luke jersey - taps me on the back and said "keep moving, that's not your fuging seat".

So weird....

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
