Since I’m still not allowed to create my own topic, this thread seems applicable. This board gets harder and harder to read every day. I don’t understand why half of you are here. Just jump ship already and find a new team if all you can bring to the table is crying about our team. I get things have been iffy the last few years Rhule times were hard times. Stop hating on our players and our team. I’m a die hard panthers fan who lives in Philly, if anyone knows a thing or 2 about baseball a guy here named Trea Turner had an awful year and the fans decided to have his back and give him a standing ovation. (if Philadelphians can do it anyone can). Since then he has been playing at an elite level. Maybe if once in a while we stopped criticizing the team we are all supposed to love and just cheer and root for them it could be beneficial. If you give up just give up and take the negativity to a Saints or Falcons board because I’m tired of everyone acting like the Panthers are their least favorite team instead of their favorite. 

The players give the fans something to cheer about not vice versa. The fans spend hard earned money (some folks spend more than they can afford) to support the team because it’s the only escape they have and the only thing they have look forward to in some situations. Kids latch on and make heroes out of the players and idolize to be like them one day. The players make a lot of money to play a game, it’s their job to earn the support of the fanbase. 
 

“Let’s support our guys even though they suck year after year and maybe one day we won’t suck.” Sounds like something that would come out of a Cardinals or Chargers message board.

I mean dude, it is a fan message board for debating. We can still be fans and love our team while not agreeing with every single thing the team does. Its okay to debate and chat as that's what the board is for. I admit there are a few angry smart mouthed douche canoes on here but they mostly hang in the tinderbox and every now and then crawl out of that place where we can smell their presence but they usually go back with the rest of their sludge after telling us what horrible people we are for not sharing their same opinions. Other than that there are a lot of people who debate pretty decently and disagree fairly cordial.

its probably a burner account from someone who was banned recently.  He is trashing the board and its posters for its "negativity" so that tells me all i need to know

 

and the fact that he wanted to start yet another thread is telling as well

I have been on here a while. Only account and I lurked for years before I created an account. It only lets me make a topic in the NFL forum section. Assuming because I need to advance my level more first since I do not post often.

How do people call themselves Panthers fans, but when your best defensive player is ready to get paid you turn on him and try to devalue his talent.

 

Even no pass rush all preseason can convince people how important Burns is to this defense.

 

None of this makes any sense.

It wouldn’t make sense to a 12 year old.   Tell us again how San Antonio is on the Mexican border

You spamming poo emoji's on all my posts. But im the "12 year old"...

 

San Antonio is indeed "near" the San Antonio border. 150 miles to be exact.

 

Not that far away if you ask me. But hey if that's funny so be it.

 

 

I think he's the funniest of the bunch. He hates it when you poo him, so he'll poo you until the end of time. He's a hoot. Every post is Gold I tell ya, Gold. Remember that kid in school you tried to avoid? Well, he found us.

There is literally nothing in San Antonio. You're on the mexican border.

You've been here long enough. You should know who to avoid, and the ones you want to converse with. Just ignore the noise. Or think of it as comic relief. Cuz sometimes it really can get to you if you let it. Some folks use the ignore button, but I enjoy watching some of these ppl have breakdowns. Does that make me a bad person? We'll let future generations make that determination.

Wouldn’t he have sat out of training camp? I know he wants to be here and he made it a point to show up at camp bc he said he wanted to be a leader. I would be shocked if he sits out a game. 

 

I'm not so sure he can sit out. He's still on his rookie deal so he hasn't really banked that much money. Can he afford to pass up all those game checks. Plus, he can't hold out past week 7 or he loses a whole year of eligibility, and we'd still own his rights. That's a big gamble. I mean, go ask Bell if sitting out a year was worth it?

 

He has a majorly tough decision to make that's for sure.

Nobody over values their players than Panthers fans. It’s the realists in the crowd that bring everyone back down to earth.

The teams social media is partly to blame, building up every single player that comes through the door whether they are worth a damn or not.

I don’t think you understand what fandom means.

I don't think everyone who is afraid to pay what will probably be highest or right under the highest salary for his position in the league is hating on him. Some definitely but not everyone. Some I think are just worried and cautiously concerned. He is a very good player. No he isn't Julius Peppers and I think us having him spoiled us and at the same time ruined us for all future players. Julius was a once in a generationally gifted athlete and though Burns is very good we can't expect him or all future guys to live up to Peppers. 

Put me in the category or realizing we do have to pay him but hoping we get top production out of him and I believe he does have a great chance of giving that to us in this new defense that more fits his skillset.

      How long do you feel it takes for a head coach to turn a team around?

      Canales has his msjor issue not doing the obvious regarding running Dowdle but with an average QB we would be in the playoffs with an average QB.

      1. fug TikTak, I ain't clicking that stupid poo. 2. This is really very situationally dependent. Coaching is a huge part but sometimes you step into a scenario where a lot of building needs to happen that is largely out of your control  Recent examples(Last season's hiring cycle): 1. Ben Johnson Johnson chose the OVERWHELMINGLY best open coaching job due to a combination of solid ownership, a solid front office and the most talented roster of the open jobs from that cycle. Negatives were, insanely stacked division. Results have so far indicated that this coaching change has been a massive boost. 2. Mike Vrabel Vrabel went a different direction. He went to a franchise that has solid ownership, a mediocre front office and one of the worst roster in the NFL. However, he has a track record of NFL head coaching success AND lucked into one of the easiest schedules in NFL history(I believe 3rd easiest). Even with that caveat, a clear indicator that coaching has been a huge boost. 3. Pete Carroll Carroll chose one of the NFL's most voliate franchises. Notoriously bad ownership, very bad front office and a terrible roster. But, Carroll is a HOF caliber NFL HC with success at every stop. At the moment, coaching has not been able to overcome the apparent obstacles. In fact, it's been a complete diaster to the extent that Carroll has already fired multiple coaches. One could certainly argue that pethaps Pete has lost his touch but regardless, this coaching change didn't result in a turnaround and Carroll's future there seems in doubt. 4. Aaron Glenn Glenn's first HC opportunity was a doozy. Near worst ownership, a mediocre front office(at best) and a talented core group of players on an underwhelming roster. This experiment has been quite the ride to date. Glenn's personnel decisions have seemingly led to multiple close game losses(2-5 in games decided by one score or less) and the FO decided to have a roster firesale prior to the trade deadline for a wealth of draft capital. The question will be if Glenn will be given the time to actually see this future draft capital realized, now that a significant chunk of the talented core is not longer there. Coaching has not made a difference but is the franchise now setting him up to fail further? 5. Liam Coen Coen picked a mixed bag. Terrible ownership, a remade front office he essentially had a hand in selecting(or at the miminum influenced) and a middling roster. The early results show promise even if the roster shows significant flaws(and Coen shows visible frustration with his "franchise" QB every Sunday). Could be close to turning a 4 win team into a playoff berth. Coaching has mattered. 6. Brian Schottenheimer This was resoundingly viewed as a bad hire but it's also under challenging circumstances. Bad ownership in the sense that the ownership is also the front office, a future Tepper dream I assume. Very talented but very flawed roster. The initial results have been...interesting. A Cowboys team that was a bad 7-10 after a previous streak of three 12 win seasons is now....mediocre? Couple that with wild roster changes prior to the start of the season and up to the trade deadline and it makes for an incomplete picture. It's not much progress but it doesn’t appear to be regressing either. TBD. 6. Kellen Moore Moore chose the most challenging of all openings. The Saints are in the midst of a simulateous roster teardown and attempted rebuild. Decent ownership, a mixed bag in the front office(great at evaluating draft talent, less so in free agency and in salary cap management). The Saints have been awful but, they were expected to be awful. To that note, they were net sellers before the trade deadline. It was reported that Moore secured an agreement that this is long term building effort prior to taking the position so his status seems safe even while the team flounders week to week. Difficult to grade this now as the entire scenario seems to be a long term strategy. TBD.

      I think he has started to build a culture here.  I think if we had a qb with no limitations we would be seeing a lot more with the offense.  I think most of the coaches that come in and instantly win went to teams that were underachieving previously based on roster talent level.  Based on our roster talent,  we werent underachieving,  we were just bad.
