As a fan of the Carolina Panthers... you have destroyed....

I watched Navy beat a ranked SMU team Saturday; USC beat UCLA and I went to the Canes game Saturday night, where they beat Florida.

I helped the wife with Christmas decorations yesterday, laughed at the Panthers a few times, and watched the Canes beat the Red Wings in Detroit on TV last night.

All in all, a good weekend. Once you learn to temper your expectations, read and understand the history of this franchise for the last 25 years, you'll find that happy place where a win is a good thing and a loss is to be expected.

Arizona State beating a 6th ranked Oregon team may happen in college football a few times a year, but rarely does the equivalent happen in the NFL.

I've very nearly destroyed a chair and a few glasses at Bucket Shop in Atlanta. The worst was the Super Bowl.

During the 2008 debacle against Arizona I destroyed a TV remote after Jake threw his 3rd pick.

I very nearly destroyed a Saints fan's face during the 2017 playoff game in the dome. Thankfully my girlfriend held me back.

That's about the extent of it.

I threw a pillow at the TV once when watching a college bball game.  That is about the extent of my destructive habits.

 

I watched Duke and Wake live in the rain and cold.  It was a fantastic game but I think I was still numb from exposure to the elements during our game yesterday.  I didn't get all that upset and was pleasantly surprised that they kept the game close after a disastrous  start.

    • Dang, we might not be able to create the same magic from last year!
    • If we were a solid winning organization most of us would have no problems with this selection. We would have had a capable starter in place to allow him to be eased into the rotation. If were told prior to the draft that he had been completely cleared health wise, we "probably" wouldn't have a ton of reservations about this selection. If we had picked this young man on Day 3 of the draft most of us would have no problems with this selection because we wouldn't have had to use draft capital to move up and get him. Unfortunately, none of the above were true 1)  We were a terrible team in 2023 and needed an immediate impact player. 2)  He was hurt near the the end of the 2023 NCAA season. We traded up to get him even though we knew he wasn't medically cleared to play in 2024. 3) When training camp started we were hearing stories that the knee wasn't ready. That alone should have raised some red flags. I personally would have red-shirted him in 2024 in order to have him ready for 2025. We had Chubba as our lead back and other guys to fill the #2 and #3 spots on the depth chart. There was no need to rush Brooks unto the field in 2024. Here's our draft history in the 2nd round between 2021 and 2024 2021 TMJ 2022 No draft choice. We picked Matt Corall in round 3 (#94) as our only Day 2 pick. 2023 Jonathan Mingo 2024 Jonathon Brooks. We have taken 4 skill players on Day 2 of the draft for the past 4 years who have contributed absolutely nothing to the offensive side of the football. 3 are no longer on the team. Two of them are no longer in the NFL. One  could possibly never start a game due to a knee injury. This type of poor drafting is why this team has been so bad for the entire decade. 
    • Even limited as he was I still don't think they have replaced his production, and not just the sack stats. The games Clowney missed it was very obvious what his value still was. Risky move but whatever. They only had 32 sacks last year and if that drops then it's going to get ugly. I see the improvement in run stopping but not in pass protect in any way.
