It occurs to me that I'm really glad we got a name like "Panthers" because the suggestions that I'm seeing put forth for Washington mostly suck.

I admit what I'm about to say is a little silly.

An analysis of Super Bowl winners would show we'd be more successful with a name like Bankers. Teams with some sort of human mascot (Steelers, 49ers, Patriots, Packers, Cowboys, Chiefs, Buccaneers, Raiders, Redskins) dominate the list of Super Bowl winners. Teams with feline predators (Bengals, Lions, Jaguars) have traditionally struggled.

They should've gone with Pigskins to honor their old nicknames and make it football related without crossing the line. Throwing red in front of anything seems like the wrong move if that's what this whole thing was about. My family are all Washington fans and they still call them the Redskins / Skins anyways.

 

Might as well just stick with WFT at this rate...

PETA wont like that

    • Aho…come out and prove me wrong boy. 
    • I mean, I hear what y'all are saying, but Derrick could have been positive without being negative.  He essentially accused people of not seeing Bryce's improvement because of their desire to not be wrong. He could've kept it about Bryce and the team. For example, he could've said: "Bryce has made strides, and we believe in him. This coming season, his continued improvement will turn a lot of people into believers."  That would've been supportive of his teammate and sent a message to the doubters. That being said, his tact almost summoned and left the door ajar for more skepticism. That's my take anyway. Bryce has improved from the bottom to perhaps skirting the line between the bottom third and mid-third at best...after three seasons. We've all seen it. Yay! In my mind, Bryce has still got a long way to go and a short time to get there, but my expectations are top five--at least top 10--always! Yes, I am a fan, so there's that, but I don't believe it's unreasonable to expect excellence. Hopefully the Panthers FO has the same mindset (and that doesn't even necessarily have anything to do with what we gave up to acquire him). That is the lens I'm looking through. Derrick Brown has his homer glasses on. He just needs to be more diplomatic and thoughtful with his words in my opinion, but I get it that he's a good teammate.
    • I have no doubt the Canes will come out like gangbusters, huge bounce back from game one - my only concern is Freddie, if he lets in a couple of softies and Dobes stays hot we could be in trouble.
