Exactly 

 

If you ever played football you would understand that some players just don't care. Most take it seriously, but you can't convince me some of these players don't take their job seriously. Once they get paid some will just disappear.

 

Brown was nowhere to be found and he's supposed to be our best player. 

So you believe they came out yesterday in the first game of the season and didn't care?

Allow me to retort. There appeared yesterday to be some players who did not care on the field like it or not unfortunately. The proof is in some of the individual players body language, lack of apparent fire, smiling after mistakes, giving up and refusing to chase down a WR who just beat them or even not seeming to care in their physical play and almost going through the motions just to get it done and over with sort of like when we were all young and took an ugly chick home from the bar. Once we were actually in "action" and realized how ugly she was, we just had to at that point go through the motions, knock them boots and get that lass on her ugly ass way out our door.

So, someone spends six weeks working out in 100 degree heat and they don't care? Got it.

The score says they didn't care. At least be competitive bro.

Ok. Got it. Guys who have been the absolute best at what they do since they were 7 years old...just don't care. 

How about the front office hasn't had a clue in how to put a team together and the team sux. You think that might be a possibility?

And yes, I played all sports and some of my best friends are coaches at the highest level. They would tune someone out who said "players don't care." It's ludicrous. Yes, you have some who are just in it for the money. But the majority? No.

I mean, NFL players have been on record for years and years and years.....that a huge portion of the league are just check cashers.  Little else.  Many just granted a physical gift from god to be good at sports.  So they play sports part of the year to be some of the highest income earners in America.

You say you played football, and you never had teammates who didn't care?

 

Bro I seen players get scared the moment they step on the field. I was watching a documentary with the Notre Dame LB Manti Te'o said his teammates were shook the moment Alabama came out of the tunnel. He openly admitted he knew his team had no shot.

 

Yes some players don't care. Not all, but some do that is fact. Some people are good enough to get paid. Some don't really care for the game they just care what the game brings them off the field.

 

Cmon bro it's like this in every sport. Some players care more than others. We have seen athletes admit they didn't really care much for a particular sport they just happened to be good at it and chose it for a career path.

The team was either going through the motions or just wasn't prepared. It sure looked like both to me.

I still don't get how your really bad rookie QB who is now going into his 2nd or 3rd O....didn't need crazy work in the preseason.  They treated Bryce Young like he was an old Peyton Manning.   Everyone needed work.  Everyone was new.  First time HC, first time OC, OL playing by folks for the first time, young skill folks.  It's all so predictable.

Remember Robbie Anderson?

 

Antonio Brown?

 

Just a few players who didn't care. I'm sure there are many more on many rosters who we don't know their names.

CJ Henderson openly admitted he didnt love football and it was just a job.  Just go to the Jags boards and search him up.  The stories about the coaches having to go to his house to get him so he'd come to practice are wild af.

Well he kept saying that they were getting the reps they need in camp. We also heard the defense was giving them fits. Where was that defense yesterday. I guess our offense made them look infinitely better than they actually were. But to your comments about playing time together, it wouldn't have made much difference in the end. Maybe they lose by 30 instead of 37, that's about all I've got.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By SCMunnerlyn1 · Posted

      Just as we won those close games we could have just as easily lost them. So the jury is out on if we were more lucky than good ( see the sweep by the saints) Were moving forward on paper. And how badly dont we all want to see us back to at least Above average form. Its about time.

      Ranked Panthers as the Best this year!!

      By frankw · Posted

      If you're looking for a pat on the back it sounds good in theory until you realize they also had the 2023 Panthers as the top draft class.

      Going into the 2003 and 2015 seasons we were supposed to be the joke of the league each time. In 2003, John Fox was supposed to still be in rebuild mode. We had a guy named Peppers on the defensive line who was supposed to be pretty good. We had Rodney Peete as our starting QB and a line that was a lot of hope and not much experience. Our new running back was a guy the Redskins, errrr Commanders, had jettisoned for being too old. We had a good kicker and writers thought that was needed because there were going to be more field goals than touch downs. Heck, it looked like they were right up until just before halftime of that first game when we had to yank Rodney Peete and put in some Cajun duded whose name couldn't be pronounced. And Steve Smith? He wasn't Smitty yet. Moose Muhammad, well, he was close to being written off as a bust. You know how that turned out. And then in 2015, we had Cam Newton, who was electrifying to watch but hadn't really won anything yet. There was an offensive line in front of him that looked like it was made in a defunct Swiss cheese factory and our big hope on offense was the great Kelvin Benjamin. And then he got taken out for the year with a knee injury in training camp. Ted "Feet of Lightning, Hands of Stone" Ginn became our default go to guy beside our next best hope, yeah, Devin Funchess. Our defense was pretty good, a scrappy bunch with frikkin' awesome linebacker play and a cornerback who had done more than drank the Kool-Aid, but had snorted the powder. He played like a superhero and became sort of a bat-man during the season. By the Super Bowl he had completely lost his freaking mind, though, and managed to talk his way out of a contract with the team next year. No one was expecting us to win the NFCSouth that season, much less almost go undefeated and into the Super Bowl. So, 2026? Who knows? But our best seasons came when no one had a reason to believe in us, except us.
