  1. 1. How will you celebrate?

    • With a humble spirit (Grateful for the championship and party among friends) - Bryce viewpoint

    • With a boastful spirit (Bragging rights obtained, you let everyone in your grandmama know who the best team is) - Cam viewpoint

Before I get started with this topic, neither viewpoint should be seen in a negative light.  This is sports.  For player and fan alike, we celebrate our teams the way we celebrate.  Ain't nothing wrong with that!


I often think about the things players are saying about Bryce Young, and they all point out how his attitude is one of meekness, while still carrying an air of confidence.  Many of us have been Panthers fans for a long time, and more are coming aboard.  I often imagine what would be my reaction to a Superbowl victory?  Now, when I talk to fans from other teams, I always brag about my cats before the season, saying we will go 19-0 (prior to the extra game in the season) and 20-0 every year.  Yet personally during the season, if we got a big win against a team on any given Sunday, I don't cheese it up and brag about it much.  Perhaps one of the reasons for why is I know the Panthers could stink the joint up the next Sunday.  Then I would have to go in front of friends and explain myself over something I have no real impact on. LOL! (Of course fans in the stands have impact to a degree)  This was even true in years where we did well.  So all that in mind, I again wonder how I would react around everyone, friends, family, coworkers, and folks of opposing teams should our team take it all the way.  How would y'all react?


Again I think about Bryce Young.  No doubt for him to lead a team to a Superbowl as a rookie would be awesome!  It would also be historical, and would speak for itself on greatness.  Yet I imagine if all that came to pass, our guy would still wear the respectful hat.  Then I think about Cam.  Now please don't get me wrong, I am not speaking evil of Cam or criticizing him in any way.  Don't take it this way.  I'm just thinking on comparisons here.  That said, Cam let you know who the best was.  Particularly when he was dominating, and even as a rookie he was dominating at the QB position in ways not seen before and yet to be seen since.  He said himself he was a sore loser.  So he had a lot of pride in his abilities and his team.  It is a stark contrast from the early indications of how Bryce will be.  We are just like this as fans.  For me, when we win big, I don't play it up too much. (Though inside I'm ecstatic and jumping around)  For the next Panthers fan, they might throw it up and letting everyone know what time it is.  Both are valid expressions.  So here again and again and again, how will you respond to a Superbowl victory this year?  Or have you thought about how you would react?

Not even sure if Cam aka Superman can lift the Panthers to the SB let alone winning it as a rookie, let alone Bryce. Just too much competition for this young team with a new coach. Realistically, it will take a few years to be real contenders as long as we can make progress and improvements game after game. Our goal should be to win games that we are supposed to win and have a winning record unlike last year 7-10 record. It is attainable.

Before some of you continue attacking the OP, how many saw 2015 coming?

I am sure people were touting us, I don’t even need to look. It happens almost every year. And Cam had actually proven something so it had some validity. 
This year? That is a ton of ‘if’ and ‘maybe’ being substituted for ‘is’.

    • I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes I to account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as a treading water year. I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room. Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked. 
    • What happened to King? Was he a no show?
    • think these smaller Qb's are going to have a much harder time convincing an NFL team to draft them. not saying a smaller Qb under 6 feet tall will not make an NFL roster .it will most likely be a UDFA contract more or less prove it deal.NFL teams have been burnt time & time again investing in these small NFL Qbs & i think  teams are now finally starting to realize that investing in these smaller Qb's under 6 feet tall is simply a bad idea  ...just saying
