Most, if not all of us, love to remind Cowboy fans (when they spout about all their Super Bowl wins) that their last trophy came in ... 1996. That's longer than some of you have been alive lol. "fIvE rINgS! HoW bOuT dEM CoWboYS!11".

But today, I was reading that we are working out Norman. ESPN added this to the article:

Quote

Josh Norman, a key piece of the team's 2015 drive to the Super Bowl when interim coach Steve Wilks was in charge of the secondary, tried out for the team Monday with the expectation to sign and play at least a minor role against the Buccaneers with the division title up for grabs.

We have a handful of posters excited about Josh's return in the Josh Norman thread today. But ... um ... 2015 was a long ass time ago. Not Cowboys Long of course ... but still long. And obviously we always bring up Cam's MVP season, Luke, Olsen, etc. every single year here.

So my question is ... when do we need to stop talking about 2015 like it was yesterday? Yes, Norman was on that team. Neat. Now he's that much older. Yes, Cam was the best QB in the NFL that year. Neat. Now he's not even in the NFL. Yes, Luke and Greg were elite as FUG in 2015. Neat. Now one is an announcer and the other probably still has headaches.

At some point, other fans are going to start reminding us just how long ago 2015 was.

Im old school, so i think of dallas vs carolina in 96 terms.......

With all the "well playoffs, just going lost, smooth brain talk" Ive been trying to tell people to look back to 96 and the playoffs against the blowboys.....

Besides the eagles, none of the nfc playoff teams are scary....(tho SF getting QB magic is another)... panthers can beat the blowboys...

Who talks about 2015 like it was yesterday? How old are you? 7 years isn't really all that long, honestly.

In football years it's like a generation.  How many guys from that 2015 team are still in the NFL. Not on the Panthers, just still playing in the NFL.  Just FYI it's less than half.

Just enjoy the nostalgia. Newsbreak: we're 6-9 only in the playoff hunt because we play in an all time putrid division. We still suck. So just enjoy the fun things. Bringing J-No back is fun.

I don’t get the incessant need to spout “the Panthers suck.” It’s like people cannot see the difference in the team now and the team under Rhule. The team under Rhule sucked (1-4 record). The team under Wilkes does not suck (5-5 record). 

Denver sucks. Arizona sucks. Chicago sucks. Houston sucks. Despite its shortcomings, the current Panthers team is not great, maybe average, but they don’t suck.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t think people are saying that picking up the option s a call for the pitchforks. We would have had to do things differently a couple of years back to make declining the option a valid move. We didn’t and here we are. People largely accept that. The patter it adheres to, reinforces the nausea we feel when the idea of an extension, and at top of the market no less, comes up.  One that he hasn’t shown he deserves.   Same as he did not deserve to be drafted 1.1. Look at Pavia and what really is the difference? Bryce is a nice guy and Pavia is an asshole lol. They are both no margin for error non day one talents. One went undrafted.

      We hate losing. I don't know Bryce to hate him. His play as a QB, I absolutely hate. It's just not good enough. If there were a lottery held to select the order and all 32 starting QBs could be drafted as the starting QB for whatever team selected them, how long do you think it would be before Bryce's name was called? Top 10, top 20, bottom 8? Think about it.  For me, having never seen back to back games with franchise QB level performance in 3 years tells me what I need to know. We still need to be looking for our solution at QB.

      Dude, I'm saying the Cardinals have proven they know nothing. Not saying keeping Bryce is the best choice long term, just saying that we've made the right move for this moment in time.  But man, the Cardinals are never a blueprint for success. Haven't been since they were in Chicago.
