I Don’t Care Anymore

I expected it.  I started to get amped up too, then told myself a let down still is likely around the corner.

 

Yup.

I know, I always fall for it. I told my wife they just got the lead only to crush my spirits one more time. It’s really hard to watch that defense though. Our offense seemed to settle down, but damn we couldn’t tackle poo.

yup this is all 100% spot on. i used to be crushed with these types of losses. would just have a pit in my stomach for a few days. i honestly dont care and fully expected to lose.

you can call it being fair weather, but its just not the case. went to college in north carolina. bought ticket plans all 4 years i was a college student. my save the dates for my wedding were panthers themed. the 'signarture" drink at our wedding was called the gettleman. i proposed after the nfc championship game against arizona. my dogs name is julius. the middle names of my kids are charlotte and cameron. i am one of the few idiots who actually pays for directv because i need panthers football.

i was as invested of a fan as there could be, but david tepper has killed this franchise. he completely destroyed everything that cam and luke built over the past decade, and he continues to show he has absolutely no idea what he is doing. he has zero self awareness and showed that last month when he called out panthers twitter for living in basements. he just sucks. the coach sucks. the state of this team sucks. i hope you all are fans of other teams because its going to be a while before things change around here.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
