Surprising ratings from our game.

The Darnold factor? 😀

Quote

According to NFL Media, the Texans’ 24-9 loss to the Carolina Panthers in Week 3 was the most-watched NFL Network exclusive Thursday Night Football game since 2018 with 7.9 million viewers consuming the game across television and digital platforms.

Interesting and surprising.  Maybe some of the off season attention related to Watson caused more people to watch?  NFL starting to recover from the ratings drop?

I think Darnold is a part of it but I think it's the team as a whole. Also, Carolina isn't hated by many fans of most other teams. So I think we are a team that many can kind of root for. We also have some nice stories that are easy to support like Darnold, Rhule and staff plus we have some other exciting young players. I think many were curious to see if we are for real. Carolina is creating a buzz.

Hope you are right.  And I hope we continue to create that buzz.

The game was hyped up more than other games. I think the NFL realizes the Panthers might be a contender this season. I have a feeling if the wins keep coming we might get flexed into a Sunday Night game later in the season 

Isn't the Bills game a possible flex game? Like the packers game last season was originally supposed to be at 4 PM IIRC.

It says the time is TBD.

      The Carolina Huddle

      Been here a while but rarely post and most of them are smartazz. Mostly lurk just so I can sound informed while hanging out drinking beer in my neighbors garage. Amusingly a Huddle level of knowledge kind of makes you a subject matter expert. Thanks for that.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      That’s similar as saying MVP Cam is the same as rookie Cam because his mechanics didn’t change. We’re talking about production.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By frankw · Posted

      In 2025 Sam Darnold had over 1k more passing yards than Bryce Young on 1 less pass attempt. Repeat that to yourself several times and let it sink in. I absolutely love it when people come on here and invoke Sam Darnold like some gotcha. Darnold is the physical prototype for what anyone needs in a franchise QB. All the physical tools. Few people thought he would put it all together on the mental side of the position. He used to make some of the worst decisions you would ever see. At times in the past he made up for that with absurd throws and athleticism. But make no mistake whatsoever no matter how you feel about our starting QB. Bryce Young is a completely opposite conundrum. He lacks virtually any and all physical tools and athleticism and his elite processing is really mediocre at best on a good day and horrific on a bad day. These are realities people should have already been addressing instead of quadrupling down in year four.
