You may have missed the point.  A panther board is not where you go to promote fair weather fandom.  That was the point I was attempting to project.

It is a place for active fans to talk about boycotts though and it is not really a surprise at this point. There are not any fair weather fans left here while the team is on a 4 year losing steak. See Rhule get fired and I am going to guess it returns to normal as we talk about what comes next. Until then all we can do is whatever is in our best interest and that includes our mental health.

I do believe the Panthers will be in line for a win one time this season, like 99% chance of winning with less than 30 seconds left, and Rhule will do something so insanely stupid that it costs the team its only win.

Something like icing his punter and it gets blocked and returned for a TD, or thinking it's third down when it's fourth and Baker takes a knee at his own 5 and the other team kicks a FG, something like that.

Fuggin' maddening😠😠

    • Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that. 
    • I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
