Why Does No One Mention the Fact That We've Won Zero Playoff Games in 3 Seasons After a Super Bowl Trip?

To me this is the most striking statistic I've seen in this post 2015 era. Pretty much all 3 seasons have been failures. We managed to have a winning record in 2017 but that doesn't mean jack squat when you get 3x swept to a divisional opponent and lose in the first wild card game.

Well, that type of stuff is going to happen with bewildering moves by management, a terrible handcuff of a contract that has reverberating negative effects that transcend seasons, incomplete lines, backups in your receiving corps, and injuries in general, not to mention injuries to your franchise QB's throwing shoulder. I mean, it's not a mystery that we haven't won a postseason game. In the same vein, franchise history hasn't been kind to us to have successive winning seasons, so if you look at the cycle (especially in conjunction with the aforementioned), we were not really "on schedule" to win anything at least two of the last three years.

I think every one of us realizes this which is why 90% of the fan base wanted and expected Rivera and Hurney to be fired.

I believe Tepper is a smart guy so he obviously knows this as well. Unfortunately, building a new practice facility is more important to him than building a winning franchise.

Oh and don’t say but he’s a Steelers guy and they don’t overreact and fire their coaches. The Steelers have had 1 losing season in like the past 10 years. If that was the case for the Panthers I’d have no problem giving Ron and Hurney another chance.

It seems to me like Tepper some how still doesn’t know who he wants his GM to be so he doesn’t feel like paying two coaches. This results in lame duck seasons which is what we are currently staring at.

We went 15-1 and went to the Super Bowl and proceeded to have one of the worst offseasons in history which ultimately led to a disastrous 6-10 season. Rivera risked the future of our franchise QB to save his job and some how it worked.

If Dave and Ron would have been fired after 2016 like they should have been we probably aren’t in this current shitty situation.

I’m willing to believe this but I certainly have yet to see evidence of it.  The converse, in fact.

The NFL’s history is full of owners who are/were “smart” businessmen but are/were utter failures as football-men.

I mean, those two things aren't mutually exclusive. Seeing them practice in a fkn ballroom is just silly.

Could be true of Tepper but at this point we simply don’t know and people don’t like that...they want to know and want to know now, regardless of evidence. History and religion teaches us the unknown is man’s biggest fear, naturally terrifies people to the point of war and denile. 

Unfortunately, that isn’t how the process works, it takes time to know and understand where this franchise is going and we will all just have to wait and see.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By JawnyBlaze · Posted

      It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed.

      I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
