Jokes don’t bother me. It’s when our fans show their insecurity by constantly seeking validation, expressing concerns if he will be able to take hits or see over the line blah blah blah

I mean that is a legitimate concern. Not the line part, but how well his body holds up at this level.

I been a Panthers fan since our 1st SB run although I was a teen I still remember that era. Losing the SB sucks, but we have been to 2 SB's and we were an expansion team. That is pretty impressive to have 2 SB appearances in that amount of time.

 

 

I could hang my hat on that expansion thing in the first Super Bowl but we are almost 30 years in now. That expansion is a distant memory(and literally almost before your time). 

Make no mistake, you don't get these shots often so every loss puts you further away from achieving that goal.

In fact we are one of only 5 NFL teams to have appeared in multiple Super Bowls and never win.

The Cowboys are the most popular team in the NFL and they haven't been to a SB in over 20 years!

 

We been in the league for 20+ years and we already have 2 appearances. I think we are doing better than you think.

I am not going to say much more on this because I am very positive about what we did this offseason but the history is extremely rough.

Bottom 10 all time in winning percentage and 7 of 29 seasons above .500. 

This is why those SB losses hurt so much worse. It isn't like we are even the 90's Bills and consistently a contender. It’s been very fleeting.

      2024 College Football Thread

      I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game.

      Texas A&M Nic Scourton vs. Purdue Nic Scourton

      I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.

      I did, but again we're aware of the practice in college of inflating height/weight as well as what is considered normal and his freshman weight tells a lot. There was a recent Raw Room episode where at one point they were discussing putting on their "big boy weight" when they go to the pros. It's common for guys to have to slap on 20lbs over the summer, but King Dunlap mentioned having to put on 30 and how much of a toll that took on his body. That makes the idea of putting on 50 at the college level even harder to believe. I've got experience with cutting weight and that type of drop sounds just awful... and that's even if doing it healthy and not just turning yourself into a piece of human jerky. Having to add 50? Noooooo thank yoooou. I can understand wanting to take Scourton at face value, but we didn't take Bryce at face value either (and for good reason!). Give the recently posted videos a shot. I watched the one you linked even though I've already seen it, so why not extend the same courtesy? I think you'll find yourself getting more excited about his Purdue tape than you will being irritated by what you believe are false narratives being pushed. 😄
