Oh I watched the 1-15 season and last years 2-15 season.  I'll watch this year.  Eventually they have to get it right?  Right?? 

I used to get more worked up about it, but if you can turn the switch and make it a purely entertainment hobby it's a lot easier.

Someone has to bare witness to what happens. It's hard to complain if you don't sit through it all.

Yeah, the difference is now that I really don't care what happens at all. I am just an interested observer/glutton fof punishment.

Then I will call up a couple of buddies and we can bitch and rant for about an hour sometime that week.

It’s been bad football, compared to other teams.

I feel a lot better since I went to delayed replays that come up ad free too, and decide when I want to watch them rather than giving up the Sunday only to be miserable. I just stay away from the NFL all day which isn’t hard I don’t play FF any more.

If I some how see or hear the score it doesn’t bother me because the games don’t matter, I’m still gonna watch the plays get run.

I mean, the Tepper era has only been bad if you compare us to every other NFL team that exists.  As well as every other professional sports team in America.

I stopped getting upset about a week after our last SB appearance. I've just been an indifferent fan ever since. I'm just along for the ride.

I officially gave up last year. All the BS was just so obvious that I couldn't ignore if anymore. 

We aren't going to be poo with this owner. He is an idiot. A very confident idiot, which is the worst kind.

I get the impression that Teppers the sling poo against the wall until something works kinda guy. That seems to have been his approach so far.

I think they just keep convincing themselves they have a plan. The truth is, they are just blindly floundering.

Maybe one day they will learn from all the fuging up. I haven't seen much evidence that Tepper is self aware enough to realize he is a massive reason this franchise is a mess. He seems to be convinced that it's others failing him.

The two signs of hope I kind of see are

1. He hired an outside firm to help make his hires this time.  One that has had success doing so for other teams.  

2. He said he is staying in the background now.  I now people are doubting that but the fact he is actually saying that in public means he is some what aware.

Last season after the draft was mine. I didn’t like the Bryce pick, didn’t think he fit the system at all. He was my qb3 in the draft and the Panthers gave all that capital to get him. This would probably be second for me. 

That was me as well, I was holding out hope that all the reports were wrong. 

Then stroud had a MVP type season helping the team reach the playoff..... made me hate the pick even more..... plus its a 4 year sat-back if young truly can not play. At this point in my life, 4 more years just is not on my menu.

      The Franchise guy Panthers 2025 deep dive overview

      By MHS831 · Posted

      His points are valid.  However, it seems a bit based on past performance and fails to take into consideration trends and conditions that might suggest growth in 2025.   For one, he breaks the team down by position and ranks them separately.  I guess that is a fair way to do it, but they are dependent upon each other. Last year, our DL sucked.  That impacts the rest of the defense.  With no internal pressure, the QBs simply step up to avoid the Edge rush.  I would have suggested that the internal DL is now featuring pass rushers and large people who can collapse the pocket.  Secondly, the LBs were not protected very well in 2024.  It is hard to see the holes and step up when a guard is in your earhole a second after the snap.  Finally, the defensive backs will be forced to make fewer tackles and they will be better in pass protection with a new and improved DL.    Canales made an interesting comment the other day, and I (from the outside looking in) feel the same way:  (paraphrasing) "I have never seen a better group of rookies."   I think the biggest concern is the learning curve.  How long before these rookies are ready?   I am bullish on this team.  I think they win 3 of their first 4 and get confident.  The get the fans behind them.  From there, they win 6 of the remaining 13.  If they stay injury free, they have an outside shot at the NFC south.

      Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.

      I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
