I think the end goal is to have “A” Super Bowl in Charlotte and pray it doesn’t rain. Roof is preferred but not the end all be all.

Someone pointed out how Jacksonville got their Super Bowl in 2005. Tampa has hosted many with no roof and it’s in 3pm rain Florida.

Tampa averages 74/54 in February with 4 days of rain.  Charlotte averages 54/34 in February with 7 days of rain.  There's a big difference, Charlotte needs a dome to get a Superbowl.

There was snow in NYC, a tropical storm in 2010 in Miami…they can figure it out down the road.

NYC was an outlier due to 9/11, plus it's NYC something Charlotte could never be.  I have been to games at night in the winter in Charlotte, it is fine for hard-core football fans especially fans of the home team, but it's not suitable to the type of fan that goes to a Superbowl

Charlotte is not a Super Bowl destination. Stop aiming for unattainable goals. 

and why you’re at it stop moaning about our owner wanting tax dollars to upgrade an old stadium. It’s not the first or the 100th time this has happened. It’s how it works. If you want to complain then complain about the amount being too much or too little. Or complain and the roof. Complain about something that actually makes sense.

These statements don’t really go together.

The council is a democratic process. They are elected and people could have come and voiced their opposition.

If people don’t want Tepper to get this money, they wouldn’t punish the council for voting against it.

He’s getting the money because the people who actually do vote want the team to stay in charlotte.

If the council received 10000 calls voicing opposition, they would change their tune.

But regular voters don’t really care….at least not enough to send an email.

Its a shame, but it’s how it is right now.

Yeah before the elections most of the council members said they would give money to build a new stadium. The observer and other journalists usually ask them boilerplate questions like that to all of them. Only one person I liked said they would vote no. So it was pretty much settled even before the election.

9/11 a decade later? Get a better argument. It’s gonna be cold but doesn’t affect the pitch. It was miserable for everything outside the game in Minnesota a few years ago but it’s about what the city can pitch.

I think he’s complaining about people complaining.   

I personally want to complain about people telling me what I should or shouldn’t complain about.

      ESPN guys talk Bryce fifth year option

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      I dont necessarily disagree just really curious as to why that is?  He either must be a dunce, a bad teammate or must be horrendous in practice because I thought he showed promise at least in his 2nd year

When pressured, his catchable pass rate is 51.6%51.6 % 51.6% , and it's 55.2%55.2 % 55.2% on play-action plays. Lawrence has also been impacted by a high receiver drop rate, which makes it appear as if he is more inaccurate than he is.  Catchable pass rate by situation  Clean pocket: 74.1%74.1 % 74.1% (ranks 28th out of 32 quarterbacks) Deep balls: 41.2%41.2 % 41.2% (ranks 23rd out of 32 quarterbacks) When pressured: 51.6%51.6 % 51.6% (ranks 15th out of 32 quarterbacks) On play action: 55.2%55.2 % 55.2% (ranks 28th out of 32 quarterbacks) Red zone: 65.1%65.1 % 65.1% (ranks 15th out of 32 quarterbacks) When blitzed: 69.2%69.2 % 69.2% (ranks 19th out of 32 quarterbacks)    Compared to:   Bryce Young's catchable ball stats vary by situation, with a high catchable pass rate of 73.2%73.2 % 73.2% in a clean pocket (30th in the NFL) and a 60%60 % 60% rate on deep throws (20+ air yards), which was 10th in the NFL in 2024.

      Okay gentlemen, REAL talk...

      Same slant as before, dude. Look, it doesn't matter what mental gymnastics you apply to the story. You cannot remove Bryce from being a part of why we won these games. He did his job. In some games better than others? Yes, but the end result still matters. The wins are team wins. The losses are team losses  And Bryce plays a key role in the team. Like I said earlier, continue arguing that he should be replaced. I'm doing that as well.  But denying reality doesn't help your argument. It actually weakens it.
