We're going to hit our lowest point as a fan base since the final game of 2001 on Sunday

1. Hardly any Panthers fans will be at the game.

2. The Saints still have something to play for.

3. Sean Payton gets hard thinking about humiliating his opponents.

4. The Panthers have quit like I haven't seen them quit since 2001.

 

All that adds up to the Saints' fans (who don't even have much of a presence in Charlotte and who don't travel all that well) still managing to take over our stadium. I can already see it now: trailing 49-3 with 5 minutes left in the game, all Saints fans move down to the vacated seats by the field and starting chanting WHO DAT while Michael Thomas flexes on the sideline, Cam Jordan puts on a Santa hat and points at Saints fans, the team gathers for a team photo on the sidelines. It's going to be like that infamous 2001 finale vs. New England when the exact same thing happened.

Have fun!

Yea its gonna be a rough finale but I dont but into all the negative thinking for next year. We are a monster DT, a guard and center from being very competitive if Cam comes back healthy which I think he will.  We can take care of that this off season along with some depth.

I'm pretty much done with predicting optimistic things about this team. I'll get optimistic when they start winning and won't predict they will until they do.

A healthy Cam can win by himself so it really comes down to him....he took Ted Ginn to the super bowl. We scored alot of pts that year for as little fire power as we had around Cam. Not saying completely by himself but with a healthy defense and a good offseason.

Our home finale that year was a win against a bad Cardinals team that definitely didn't take over the stadium. This will be worse.

patriots fans didn't take over that game in 2001. i was there. it was a completely miserable day where it was like raining sideways. 

it was so quiet we could hear from the other side of the field a random patriots player screaming "PACK THE fuging UHAUL" which didn't make sense to me at the time and still doesn't. 

the only reason we stayed as long as we did is my dad started shitting his guts out at the beginning of the fourth quarter and was camped out in one of the family bathrooms so i just went back and sat down

Speaking of taking over games..............did you see the Raider fans at the Chargers game?

I have never in my life seen such a dominance by a visiting team..........all the seats where covered in a sea of Black and Silver. There were only a few scattering of Charger blue jersey's around.

What a huge mistake to yank the Chargers out of San Diego where they had a loyal fan based and put them in a town along with the Rams where neither of those teams alone would carry a following..........

    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.  
    • Jackie, any more reps tomorrow, or is that it for this session?  thanks for the work
    • How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
