I know you're hating it. I don't know if the Lions can do it on the road though. Ravens or Bills should be able to beat SF though. KC, no chance.

We'll see. I'm all about anything different and seeing new teams in the big game. Anyone but SF or KC.

This was his first full season as the starter. You're nuts!

Careers are short in the pro game. You don't get past 5 seasons as a starter playing like that in the clutch moments of a game. Reality. Not many chances in the NFL. Can never have your QB do that if you want to win a championship. That's why Purdy is the QB & not Jimmy G or Sam Darnold.

Man. GB lost that game more than the 49ers won it. I'm not sure it matters though. I know any team can win a game, but once Baltimore knocked the rust off today they looked unbeatable. 

 

They already smoked most of these teams once.

Look, I'm a Lamar guy, but they did not look unbeatable. I picked them to win it all back in October, mind you, but if Lamar's telegraphed throw in the end zone is picked, like it should've been, the game is close, and possibly in doubt.

Hopefully you'll get there. That was a looooong time ago. You're better than FrankW though lol. We haven't been in the NFC West since what ... 2001? 😉

Exactly. Even if you can get past the rivalry we had with them through the Cam years. How can anyone hold their nose long enough to find themselves happy amongst one of the most blatantly full of bandwagoners fanbase in the entire league? They're neck and neck with the Cowboys and Steelers for worst of the worst. Some Panthers fans here have no self respect.

I think they couldve ran the ball 2 times with Aaron Jones and got enough for a field goal lol. Horrible throw yet again. Id be beside myself if i was a packers fan

That throw with two timeouts in your back pocket is just brutal. Hell, even if you had no timeouts. There was like 50 seconds on the clock. Just chuck that thing into the third row and go to the next down. He was in panic mode but with the time on the clock and two timeouts in the back pocket only needing a FG for OT there was no reason to be in panic mode.

True, he could implode. They just seem like a very complete team. They already dog walked the 49ers and I'd trust Lamar (or any of the AFC QBs left) over Purdy. I thought Purdy was pretty bad today and the 49ers always seem to get their QB exposed (or hurt) in the NFCCG or SB recently.

Why do y'all care who wins these games? Just let it go and just watch for the love of the game. Trust me, it makes for a lot more entertainment and a lot less stress. This season has made me remember the joys of just being a general NFL fan. Yeah, you don't get the super high highs of being a fan of a team doing well but we're Panthers fans here. Do we actually have any realistic hope of that in the near future? Just watch for the entertaining the game and let the results go.

That being said, I think they over achieved for it being Jordan Love's first season starting. If they had actually won this game (easily could have imo if their kicker doesnt miss that field goal and they get a field goal on that last drive to win) and gotten the NFC CG, that wouldve have been bonkers for such a young team and a QB starting his first year.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
