Welp! This feels like a kick in the nuggets...

So I was perusing online for cornhole sets for when this whole social distancing thing gets relaxed and I came across this site (one of several) selling Panthers themed cornhole sets:

https://www.fanatics.com/nfl/carolina-panthers/tailgate-and-party-games/o-1361+t-47931335+d-97553589-9792+z-9-1529650705

The depressing part is this: Note that under player shops, Teddy Bridgewater is listed, so the site has been updated since his signing, yet 3 of the 4 top players listed in the top players section are no longer with the team. Sign of the times I guess.

Unrelated...Does anyone have a hefty bag's worth of black tar heroine I could mainline? No reason.

Not a HEFTY bag.

Whole lot of CMC and Panther logos in our future as far as merch options. There literally isn't another player that is worth putting on anything except jerseys.

We’ve averaged 7 wins in the past 5 years. This isn’t depressing, this is exciting. Growing pains can be hard for the fanboys, emotionally attached and instant gratification people but generally speaking as a fan of the team - change was needed and the willingness to change, something the Panthers FO has never tried or embraced, is good, very good.

Damn you made me want a cornhole set wish I had an extra $300 lying around :(

I see where you're coming from, but I doubt many people would attribute the poor records of late to Newton, Kuechley and Olsen, the 3 players who are no longer with the team but still listed as top players.  I'm definately willing to see what the new regime brings and I agree wholeheartedly it was needed, it's just hard to see those guys go is all. Mostly I made this thread for a goof.

We've actually averaged 8.8 wins the last 5 years. But I agree with your point overall.

Was just thinking from 2015 so poor math.

the last four seasons is what I meant to say*

though I must say not sure if throwing in the best season in panther history nearly undefeated in there can bump us up the to a measly average 8 wins is all that great though

but hey we aren’t the browns right? should be our new team chant after wins (and losses)

Exactly. I don't care if this year is a poo show just as long as it's a different poo show than we've been watching for the last 17 years.

But wouldn't it still be poo, ultimately?

What makes this poo show better? Texture? Smell?

Regardless, you know what they say...

The poo show must go on.

It’s a poo show with amateur actors vs. a poo show with academy award winners.

It’s in the name of getting better not in the name of status quo.

growing pains vs. complacency

Only time will tell my brothers and sisters, BUT I  can see a not too distance day, where Burns, Chinn, Brown could grace a Carolina cornhole board.

Hopefully one day but not today. Add Moore to that list too.

I suspect Moore will be on that list really soon.
