Help needed - How do you enjoy the NFL in a down year for the Panthers?


Tarheels23

Recommended Posts

Serious question how do you enjoy other NFL games when the Panthers are having a down year?

Let me start off by saying I never miss a Panthers game but during a down year I won’t watch any other NFL games. I just can’t stomach it  

I just don’t find them enjoyable, but I want to change that. I’m tried of allowing the Panthers to steal my joy. 

 

Any my recommendations will be greatly appreciated.

Well you can pull for the Patriots...they always win...10 straight division titles and only 1 time since 2003 they didn’t win the division

I just enjoy the overall competition and the multiple story lines. I like using NFL gamepass and following the ups and downs of teams over the course of the year. Such an intense struggle for everyone, and I find watching the overall narrative of the league as well as that of individual teams captivating.

I even enjoy Panthers down years, believe it or not. You can't have all ups, and sometimes it can be lots of downs, but that's life. Everything is cyclical and if we didn't have downs, we'd have no reference point or appreciation for ups. Amor fati.

Go outside, to the beach, park, or anywhere where I can’t see a television.  It’s a much better life. I have become very apathetic towards all sports. Up until a few years ago I would get so angry that it would ruin the rest of my day if I watched a bad effort, nowadays I really don’t care.

I'm also taking part in @UpstatePanther's "pick em" contest, and so is one of my parrots.

Yes... a parrot :)

For each game, I give him a choice between two treats, one representing the favorite and the other representing the underdog. His pick is determined by which one he chooses.

Laugh if you want to, but at the moment, he's winning :thinking:

He's the only one who picked the Bucs to win this past Thursday night.

2014 ruined my Sunday - Wednesday’s. Then by Thursday I would be hopelessly optimistic again.

    • Bryce just didn't maximize Hunter Renfrow's skills. ***rant incoming*** But this isn't just about Bryce Young mistiming passes to Renfrow so bad that he's going to get Renfrow killed or hurt, this is also about incompetentence by Dave Canales. Renfrow can still play. He's putting DBs in a blender out there---making them play twister at the top of routes to keep up with him, and dumb Dave has the nerve to cut him. How about putting Hunter in the best position to help the damned offense by appreciating his skill set, DC? You're letting Bryce's apparent inability to make an accurate throw, or at least his timidity to push the ball down the damned field cloud your judgment and miscalculate talent---or maybe just miss on talent just as much as Bryce misses passes due to playing pussified football. It's fúcking unacceptable.  Speaking of misjudgment, I don't know if it's Dan Morgan or Canales, but Eijiro Evero is not the business at DC. I have said a few times that his scheme is not conducive to run-stopping efficiency. Hell, and after watching some clips of plays, now I absolutely know why. The gaps are at least half open before the play even fúcking starts. You are setting the opposition's RBs up for success with too much damned space at the line and in the second level. If our guys are taken out in these areas---at the line and in the second level---then the defense is screwed because it must rely on the safeties to cover too much ground to make the tackle. At least put Ransom in who is motivated to seek and destroy if you're going to effectively leave the safeties on an island.  And speaking of rookies, get our two new defensive ends more snaps to see if we can't generate more of a pass rush. For all the good the continued sorry display of defense that you're putting out for fan's to see (Ejiro, Dave and Dan), you may as well get the rookies generously involved. Fúck that money we gave second-rate (maybe second-rate) vets, we need a damned spark getting after the QB. Watch it, it's just another breakdown of the sh¡t we were subjected to last week. I say this with all respect: Fúck you, Dave! Fúck you, Dan! Learn how to run a fúcking franchise. Maximize the players, regardless of what you think you're supposed to do by the book. Cut the dead weight before another season is lost and fans lose interest in September. EE is "Ew!" Or for emphasis "EEw!" /end rant
    • But nobody is saying he is a good deep ball passer.  But the facts are since he's returned from his benching, he has been throwing downfield.  Whether you want to credit the scheme, Bryce himself, or whatever, he has been pushing it deep.  Not to any positive results mind you, but it has been happening.
