Checked out?

Checked out? As a Panther fan, that happened a few years ago. As a charter PSL-owner from 1995 until 2014, I'm now just a guy who wants to watch a good game, no matter who it is. I honestly cannot name half the roster.

Matter of fact, we'll be in WV whitewater rafting Sunday when the Panthers start their season. I spent a lot of Sundays driving, tailgating and attending games that, for the most part, just left me frustrated with the entire organization. And after all those years attending games, there are but a handful of iconic games that are fond both memories and sad reminders and most of those are going back many years. The most recent being the last Super Bowl appearance.

There has not been a franchise-defining moment for this team on the field in many, many years.

Why are you here ?

From Roaring Riot's Josh Klein...

Can't speak for anyone outside of myself, but I'm pretty excited about the upcoming season.

What are others seeing? 🤔

I’m absolutely checked out. From pathetic pre season showing, to not paying Burns, to all the injuries. This franchise is a joke!

I am optimistic this season, just like I am about every new season.  Have tickets to a couple of games, and I am looking forward to it.  I do admit that Rhule being gone makes me a little more optimistic.  That being said, new coach, new qb, lots of turnover, so I expect the season to start slow.  

I also think its amusing that people are actually down about the preseason.   Preseason has never been an indicator of regular season success or lack thereof.  Never, ever.  Our 2015 preseason was terrible, at least for the starters.  The backups led by the preseason MVP Joe Webb won some games for us, but we were usually behind after the first qtr that year.

Samir was promoted in the offseason to have decision power on our spend. Tepper may be able to override him, but I think Fitt would be more of a lateral decision maker. It's very likely our front office is setup like our coaching staff. Everyone owns their own bucket of work. 

ie:
Fitterer: Roster management and acqusitions
Dan Morgan: Scouting
Samir: Salary Cap
Adrient Wilson: Player evaluation

 

The model of one person owning it all is slowly moving its way out the NFL. There are many FOs that have multiple decision makers as opposed to just one.

And if this the case then guys should get shorter leashes compared to past decision makers who did everything.

I think most are excited but hardcore fans have become more casual and casual fans have checked out and will probably check back in if the Panthers do well. There are a couple Cam fans left surprisingly but for the most part they have completely checked out…and tbh that was a large portion of fans, they are for sure not on the forum anymore.

Im fact I think a lot of fans while excited just do things out of routine or for the sake of nostalgia/memories. I use to go to most games but stopped when Tepper took over. He is by far the worst thing that has happened to this franchise.

I’m going to go to a game this year but due to schedule it will have to be a late season game. And I’m not spending $500+ if the Panthers look like crap.

I think most long term fans will always be fans but it’s a two way street. We can be disappointed at home much more comfortably than going to games and that’s what we have come to expect. 

For a while now there’s always been a reason to get excited at the beginning of every season but the result has been the same. Until otherwise, not sure what you’d expect differently.

You. It's all about your reaction. Along with Davidson and frankw.

All you guys- "You can't be here because you're not a real Panther fan. You're not allowed to answer a post that asks a question because your response is not what we want to read."

    • You should because before the preseason fiasco and the start of the season fiasco, all the reports, including Frank’s responses, were that Fitterer and Reich were in lock step. Remember the press conference where Fitterer talked about both he and Frank saying who they wanted before and after the draft process and that they both picked Young and it was glorious? People got hung up on Tepper saying the point guard analogy in April when Brown was interviewed by a Panthers reporter describing how a QB needs to be a point guard in huge detail. That was in February. I think Tepper was just parroting Brown to make himself look like he knew what he was doing. Mrs. Tepper hugging Bryce always overshadowed CJ saying how he called her Mama Tepp. We fuged up as a team, probably more so because Fitterer always said he had Young as his #1 the year before, probably because we looked at all the QBs that year as well. Reich’s love for CJ started when he got on the hot seats for frankly doing a horrific job. He's been in the league a long time and has a lot of media friends and that was a face saving CYA which we know well with many years of Hurney. Still amazing to think how much better the team was under Rhule/Hurney before Fitterer got any control when Rhule was on the hot seat.
    • I loved jStew but let’s not forget he was almost always held out from practice  due to some nagging injuries
