My wife is whining now, for the fourth day about it. After a contentious back and fourth---including "You need to compromise!", "I'm going out then!" and my reply "Bye, enjoy yourself!", and "My feelings are hurt!" and me saying "You're too old for this, you know the deal!"---I just might be in the "clear", though I wouldn't bet on it.

She's out of town with family this weekend, but I like having an SO who's a football fan.

 

 

Granted it'd be better if she wasn't a hardcore Cowboys fan, but hey...

They were showing Frank Reich's comeback game on NFL Network. Made me ponder something.

The Panthers yanked Reich for Kerry Collins about three games into the season. Wonder how things might have been different if they'd stuck with Reich and let Collins spend his whole first season learning.

That first season might not have finished as well, but would Collins have been better off long-term?

My wife will casually watch the Panthers as she watches YT videos, scans FB, and plays Addiction Solitaire. She fancies herself a Panthers fan, but I do razz her about being a Cowboys fan! Why? Because her sister is a Cowboys fan, and whenever the family has a chance to get together and watch a Panthers-Cowboys game (or even a Packers-Cowboys game, because I have a Cheesehead nephew), my wife will root for her sister's team to not do so bad because "everybody is ganging up on my sister." I then get to calling her a Cowboys fan and tell her I'm getting her some Cowboys gear.

Lady Cowboy Fan is, shall we say, aggressive in her Cowboy fanhood.

She'll fight you :Eyes_Emoji_42x42:

Yeah, man, my sister-in-law is a gear-wearing Cowboys fan! She isn't hard hardcore, but she takes it all in stride. The thing that gets me is that she divorced her husband a decade ago (and it was somewhat contentious), and he is a hardcore Cowboys fan as much as I am a Panthers fan. I tell my sister-in-law, "It's OK to switch to the Panthers now. The only reason you're a Cowboys fan is because of your ex!" She (nor her daughters) won't budge though! They'll be Cowboys fans until they die!

I'm still going to keep razzing them though!

I'm resigned to the fact that I'm going to live the next several years of my life surrounded by Cowboys gear :fear:

Sounds like my wife!!! "Ok honey, I'm going out with the girls!!"  "You better come spend some time with me!"

      The Panthers Huddle Offseason Special

      I'll be patiently waiting to see what OL additions we snatch off the waiver wire.

      Look don't get me wrong here. I'm not arguing it's going to just change his arm talent overnight. I'm just saying doing anything on the physical front after the GM who stuck his neck out for him over the concerns around his physical traits got fired is better than doing nothing. That's another layer. It could easily be argued overall he needed to add at least 10 pounds not just for the sake of working in the pocket and not going down so easily but let's be honest eventually no matter how much we invest in the OL he's going to get hit some and those hits will add up. His frame as it stands is only going to absorb so much over a 17 game season. Oh definitely good or bad we will have to run a lot of under center stuff. Bryce will either look good or flounder. But our offense will remain stagnant if we just keep running shotgun plays 90% of the time. You're telegraphing your offense otherwise. That's why I'm not giving Chuba Hubbard too hard of a time over his YPC last year. We weren't fooling anyone. We'll see what Canales has cooked up. It better be pretty damn clever.

      Why would a team ever not be aggressive in improving the roster? It may look different from year to year but even the best rosters churn at the bottom. That's a no-brainer.
