I did halfway through last season. Now I just have it on my 2nd monitor with the sound turned off. It may not get that much going forward. 

I went there after last weeks game. Kind of liberating really, watched most of the game with the sound off.

I was more entertained watching the Dolphins come back and beat the Ravens.

 

Hell...I was more entertained watching the f'n Lions beat the Commanders, for god's sake.  lol.

 

It's just becoming such a chore watching this team.   

 

Even the goddamn Jets managed to come back and win.

Tis sad but true. I’ve taken a new approach to this season and decided to do aquarium maintenance as I watch/listen to the game on my phone. It’s almost like background noise like a YouTube video would be while cleaning tanks. An odd change from usually being glued in front of the tv, but the way things have been going the last couple seasons, this is the best they get of my time. And it sucks to feel that way.

Add me to the list. Been a fan since the 90s. I'll always be a fan but theres absolutely nothing to look forward to at the moment. Tepper just massively effed up by hiring rhule. Just hope the next hire is done by Fitterer and he has absolutely NOTHING to do with it. That said, I'm afraid hes one of those owners who likes to meddle and will fug it up again.

After we kept Rhule after last year, I definitely don’t give a fug, and clearly neither does ownership. We are legit a laughingstock of the NFL.  Paying Sam Darnold 16 mil, and making a Hail Mary move with Baker is just icing on cake.  Rhule should never sniff any head coaching job anywhere, including college and HS.  Maybe peewee football, but he does give diddling vibes, so maybe not even that

Still care, always will. Only watching  a franchise because their are winning is a bandwagon hopper approach. poo sucks right now, but I still want to watch them play football. I do encourage getting Redzone though, very fun to wathc on Sundays.

I'm no bandwagon fan. Don't accuse anyone who has been a fan of the team for 25-30 years a bandwagon fan.

It's not just because we are losing that I don't care. We've had horrible seasons before. Remember there were two years we had the worst record in the league and most of us stuck around because we had hope that things would turn around. Even if we finished winning no games, at least there was this sense that next year would be different with a new coaching staff.

And before we had those bad seasons, we had some good ones. When we got a new coach last time, it was supposed to get better.....it didn't.

Now it just feels we are stuck and the worst part of it is we are stuck with a coach who isn't getting better and an owner who won't let him go and we've been promised 5 more years.

Its been so long since we've had a winning team and we are committed to a holding pattern of suck. 

Now I can't say this is the case for anyone else, but it's just not fun for me anymore. Before I planned my schedule around Panthers games and my family has had to put up with a lot. They've been ok with it, but I've still felt bad at times. Days where we lost and there was no hope of us winning, I hung in there till the end and my family waited.

Panthers were that important to me. They just aren't anymore. 

And the thing is, I don't feel bad about it. If the Panthers turn the page from the Rhule era, I might start to care, but I've got no confidence in this era with Rhule. I've got no hope it faith in this team anymore and I have no reason to believe that it will get any better with Rhule. I've seen nothing to inspire any confidence whatsoever.

I'm just tired of it all and don't see much reason to waste my time with this team I've loved since i first heard was coming to the Carolinas nearly 30 years ago. 

If Rhule goes I'll give it another chance, but as long as he's here I'm just going to find something else to do. 

I'm no bandwagon fan, but I am a tired fan who is likely going to move on from watching if we don't move on from Rhule.

I won't be trading my jersey in for another. I'll just be finding more interesting games to watch or finding more interesting things to do.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
