The NFL Shield At Midfield Grand Master

The NFL Shield At Midfield

A Panthers loss would ruin my Sunday, it would be one of the main things on my mind on Monday, and it would be Tuesday or Wednesday before I was over it and thinking about the next game.  It was like that for me probably up to or around 2010.  A few games into that season I had the realization that we were going nowhere fast and it was going to be a long climb back to playoff contention.  I adopted the mindset that the Panthers were terrible, they were probably going to lose, and it wasn't worth my energy or time.

It's a bummer that Bryce Young's tenure got off to an inauspicious start, but them's the breaks.  This is a hard league to win in and we're starting from scratch with a rookie QB and new coaching staff.  Those are long odds.

Still get hyped for every game, but I no longer scream at the tv or let a loss bother me.  I’ve just gotten used to being a fan of a terrible franchise and have very low expectations for every game.  

The cold hard truth.

 

I also remember screaming at the TV during the Cam/Luke/Rivera era. 

 

Tepper era is more laughing. We are comically bad. Nothing else you can do but laugh at how bad we are.

No, still into it quite a bit, but not like I was during the Fox/Rivera eras. I watch every game but if they lose I just don’t care anymore and it doesn’t bother me nearly as much. It seems like once Tepper bought the team, it’s gone downhill for me a little, especially since Rhule.

Cam deserves to have that final year.

Im curious when It would've been ok to release him, because as of this offseason, he was still clamoring to be on a team, and 32 teams still said "No Thanks". I loved Cam. I loved Jake. But I'm also not blind and can  see when a player is broken and The Team needs to move on from The Player. TB2Gloves wasnt the upgrade, and sure, the position was mismanaged afterwards, but releasing Cam wasn't was bad as "Fandom" and "Hurt Feelings" make it out to be when you have the Team's interest in mind and not your own.

Cam was in a contract year. He was coming off an injury. He deserved to play thst last year out. They were not winning a Super Bowl with check down Teddy. He earned that final year and it was BS he didn’t get it. He also didn’t look bad with New England until he got hurt. Tepper, rhile, and Hurney can forever F themselves for that decision.

Should have let him play out his final year and then moved on, then it wouldn’t have been as sour as cutting him. Rhule knew cam was the alpha in the locker room and his ego couldn’t take that.

People's passion wanes over time.  Twenty years ago I was an insane Panther's fan.  Now, still a fan, but not nearly with the amount of energy and intensity. 

This. It used to take until Tuesday to get over a loss. Unfortunately Since mid 2018 we have been a bottom feeder and with getting older like mentioned above I’m just like oh well. I still care but I don’t let it ruin 2 days of my life every week. Tepper just doesn’t know how to hire the right people. Should have hired an up and coming coordinator to be HC

      Where does Moton rate among the all time CAR o-line players?

      By CanadianCat · Posted

      With Horn I would gladly over pay... via the TAG.   I would take his 5th year option and TAG and TAG again. Dude is a monster but I dont want to pay for a monster with as few starts as he has.

      If Bryce plays like last year, we will be picking high and can move on.  But I am curious to see how people on here are when he sees success and becomes the guy, if he does. It's almost like people want him to fail. He's got that Panther jersey on and a good attitude. I am rooting for him, as you should.  Last year the coaching, OL, and weapons were abysmal, and it put him in a tough spot. He did not play well either, but we saw glimpses, and its a full team sport. I choose to go into this year excited under a fresh new regime and a top prospect from 365 days ago at the helm with new OL and weapons. Whatever happens, happens. Let's have some fun with it.

      Pete Carroll on Canales (New Fox Sports Article)

      Maybe. You know he wanted that OC gig each time, I believe the last time they even stated he interviewed for the role. This was during the whole youth movement that mccvay started as well.  Honestly I was hoping Seattle would have cut ties with pete, he would have been great here in a top mentor role. I don't think its talked about enough, they did Pete wrong. He made them a great NFL team for the first time in their history and gave them a SB. He's still in great shape by all reports and they just decided to go young. They even removed most of his pictures and quotes in the building. Sorta like what the pats did to bill, but waay worse.  I guess I have too much loyalty for the new times, no chance either should been to out for retirement..
