Moving was the nail in the coffin for the hornets for me. I was as diehard about them as I am the panthers but once I knew they were headed to N.O I checked out completely.

Moving would likely jump on the Giants bandwagon with my wife.

All that being said I’ve already taken a step back in my fandom, as I sold my PSL’s midway through the 2016 season. 

Yeah, I've been in BK since 2011. Every year that the Panthers let me down, I'm tempted to look into the Giants but I've held strong so far. I left the Braves for the Yankees which was super easy (and of COURSE the Bravos won it all while my Bombers have not lol). But the Panthers would have to totally poo the bed for me to side with the G-Men.

I've been a Buffalo Bills fan since I was 8 yo and the team was created. I've been through it all and haven't quit despite moving to the Carolinas from Buffalo in 1976. 

No, nothing will have me quit the Panthers. Pulled for them since their creation (PSLs from beginning to 2019 when I was retired & couldn't afford season's tickets anymore); there's nothing like that feeling that you are part of the team from the beginning, watching them grow and with that comes joy and sorrow. Compared to watching your child grow, they just went through the I'm-never-showering-again teen years and I'm excited about what's next.

Maybe if they moved. Plenty of things could make me less invested and not watch every single game. I was almost there last year and the beginning of this year until Rhule was fired.  Even if we make the worst move possible and retain the current staff I would probably stay at least a little invested.  But if the team moved, there would be temptation to cut ties (and I’m not even in the Carolinas myself anymore. Haven’t been since the Panthers were 6 years old heh)

I second this. Haven’t lived in NC in 19 years but if they moved out of state I might would jump ship and just be a general fan with no affiliation.

The team has alot of leeway with me.  I would say if they hire Matt Patricia I would pack my Panthers bag and move out.  But anything short of that won't keep me from supporting the team.  I will just watch less of the games and put less emotional energy into the team if we make a bad hire and keep losing.

I really like our GM so I am hopeful for the future.

Two posters have said today that they are done with the Panthers if we were to hire Sean Payton. I don't know if I believe they'd actually walk away from being a fan though. So the question is simple ... is there anything the team could realistically do that would make you say bye?

I'll always be a fan. However, Jake's meltdown back in the day turned me from a rabid Panthers fan into the calm almost casual fan I am today.

I could see myself drop one tier lower though, which probably means not watching every game and not even bothering to know who our starters are.

What would that be?

HC: Wilks

DC: Holcomb

OC: McAdoo or Brian Johnson

1st Round Pick: Anthony Richardson

 

What say you, Huddle?

One of those was Linville George - he’s not a Panthers fan anyways so he doesn’t count

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
