Bro... like, chill. It's only the preseason.

I am expecting a playoff push for this team myself but I'm not anticipating anything clicking until at LEAST a month into the season. This is a new staff, a new offense, and a completely new set of skill players ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE BOARD. New top 3 WRs, new RB, new TE, new QB, who is also a rookie no matter how smart he is. I would not be surprised if we are the Jags of last year where we start off like 3-6 then things start to click halfway through the year and we threaten the playoffs.

Just chill my guy.

Deep breaths.

Oh look, another temper tantrum rambling that could have been put into one of the 8 other threads.

The only new concern I have from these first 2 preseason games is Ekwonu and needing Corbett a little more than we thought.

Did all these reactionaries expect all-pro play from third string guards? Did they expect Chuba Hubbard to all of a sudden be somebody he’s never been? Did they expect the defense to have no growing pains switching to 3-4 and to dominate without Brian Burns and Derrick Brown? I’m genuinely confused at anything beyond just the o-line hasn’t been good yet. Bryce Young looks like he belongs. That’s pretty good for his first couple drives in the NFL.

I’ve noticed many of these chicken littles are the same ones who hated the draft, especially Bryce Young and DJ Johnson. Funny how they don’t recognize at all any of the positives we have seen from those 2 picks. It’s almost like they only care about finding things to complain about.

Also, it’s preseason, and for at least one game (Jets) it was very clear the teams had extremely different goals for that game. They literally game planned for us with the stunts on defense. The good news is we likely got a lot more learning points from that game than they did.

Hey @GOAT, I actually enjoyed that rant and love the passion/emotion. I, personally, live in the “it’s only practice” camp. But, after what we all have sat through the last several years, I do agree not seeing any signs of competency in either of these two games is frustrating. I agree with several posters that it will probably be midseason before we start clicking, but if they do look like this week one it’s definitely not gonna feel good or be fun. But again, even though I don't agree I have no problem with it. 

However, I did see your comment about our members being a bunch of drunks. If you're gonna get worked up about people addressing your comments about drinking, then maybe stereotyping a group of 6000+ people probably isn't the right play….

FWIW….I LOVE drinking beers during the day on game days and being in bed with a pizza at 6p.

It's just a damn football team. It's just a form of entertainment (or not). It has no bearing on your life as a spectator.

Get a hobby that makes you happy and doesn't cause stress. Much more important things in life to worry about.

I rarely drink these days, but I had to run to the liquor store and purchase two bottles of liquor just to stomach watching the second half of that shitshow yesterday. I am now hungover, reading the Huddle, trying to process how I feel about this team, and I feel the need to rant about over a dozen things. This is a fan forum, so if you're already trying to think of a gif to post or a funny one liner like "lol dude it's preseason" "lol dude go touch grass", you can go fug yourself.

I have been watching the Panthers for quite some time now. I've sat through a lot of bullshit. I'm honestly sick of it.

I'm sick of the mediocracy, I'm sick of settling, I'm sick of getting embarrassed, I'm sick of watching bad football.

This team looks completely flat, no energy, no discipline, no preparation, no heart, nothing.

Bad penalties, bad play calling, horrible fundamentals, inexcusable mistakes and missed opportunities all across the board.

These motherfuggers get paid more than anyone on here will ever make in a life time and they absolutely BLOW at their jobs.

These motherfuggers get paid to play a game that children play on TV and they somehow get a pass year of after fugging year for playing shitty / coaching shitty.

These motherfuggers eat, sleep, and breathe this game, they practice all year, their whole lives, and they just still cannot get it right.

We as fans wait months to see the team we root for take the field and show some heart, make plays, win games.

We as fans work all day, some of us in grueling jobs, long hours, travel, etc - and we sit down to watch some football to relax and enjoy downtime.

We as fans buy merch, buy tickets, show up to events, encourage these guys.

and this is what we get? Every single fugging year? No matter the coach? No matter the GM? No matter the players? Just complete dogshit every single season? Year after fugging year?

This is equivalent to being a diehard fan of a band, buying their merch, buying their concert tickets, etc and then having them drop an album that sounds like someone jack hammering a cat. Or going to their concert only to watch them trying to play their instruments with a fugging dildo. 

It is absolute insanity. It is an absolute joke bro. Like what in gods green earth are you guys doing at practice? What are you doing in meetings? What tape are you watching?

How do we string together a group of the worst coaches and worst players, year after year? How does that even happen with out trying?

Why is our social media team posting a picture of the definition of preseason after a game? Do you know how embarrassing that is? Do you know how cringe and stupid all of their content is? Get off the fugging phones and stop trying to be hip. Stop trying to save face because you have a shitty ass product and you think being funny or "cool" on social media will mask that.

All this rah rah crap, all these interviews, skits, "this or that", stupid ass social media trends, cut that shid out and start fugging focusing on not being complete horseshit on the field.

Players laughing and shid on the sidelines, "oh har har har I still get my game check and then get to go home and play as myself in madden then wake up and dick around at practice tomorrow har har har". Motherfuggers never worked a god damn day in their lives, they don't know shid about adversity, they don't know shid about hard work, discipline, effort, heart. These motherfuggers just out here running around playing a game half ass and collecting money. These coaches are all just failed players that can't give up the glory of being on the field and are out there trying to act like they fugging know anything. 

"IT'S JUST PRE-SEASON LOL"

"IT'S JUST WEEK ONE LOL"

"IT'S ONLY THEIR FIRST YEAR TOGETHER LOL"

"IT'S ONLY A GAME LOL"

fug outta here. Why even watch then? Why even go to a concert where they're playing instruments with dildos? What is the fugging point?

This franchise absolutely sucks man. Tepper has ruined this shid. I really wish I didn't like watching the Panthers, I truly don't even know why I do.

I would do anything to take this team over and actually show these motherfuggers what it means to work hard, have some fugging heart, give a damn, make plays, make an impact.

I wait all god damn year for this shid and here we go again. Every week until February we're going to watch these idiots "coach" this "team and draw up dogshit plays for them to butcher if they even get the snap off before committing a penalty.

"LOL LOWER YOUR EXPECTATIONS"

"LOL DUDE DON'T EXPECT THEM TO MAKE A GOOD ALBUM"

LOL LOL LOL GIF GIF GIF

says a lot about you as a human if that's how you live life. If your passions are that weak, if you are that quick and easy to settle.

I can honestly rant about this shid all day so if you want smoke please go head and quote me.

David Tepper, Reich, players, I want all the smoke. Social media team, come at me with that softshit.

I am spending the rest of my morning writing to the front office and DMing every single person with a social media account that works for or plays for this team to make them aware of our disappointment.

I may speak for some of you already and for those that don't agree, I am going to speak for you any ways.

Because? Because this is absolute DOGSHIT DILDOS.

I ain't mad atcha. I understand how you feel, but I feel that it's way too soon to be giving up on our current staff and personnel. I'm not going to go through the reasons why, because you are obviously in a different place. I appreciate that you actually give a damn though.

I get it. The Panthers are a part of me too, but I just have to keep it all in perspective, especially considering the world that we live in.

Is this the most volatile the preseason has ever been on this fan bases outlook of a season? Lol, the reactions have been all over the place. I get that it’s not great right now but preseason isn’t the end all be all of what’ll go down in the regular season. 

It's pretty bad, for sure.

Matt Rhule hangover would be my guess.
