I seriously doubt you miss anything. It's on here and I may not be able to sit through it all if it goes how I predict it will. 

Sure the product may suck, but I would at least like the option to not watch of my own volition. Not sure how we can ever be a big boy NFL market when local affiliates are gonna cling to old allegiances when the local team is bad.

To be fair the local team has been historically bad all things considered and the markets are about advertising ratings and making money

Looks like I'll be sailing the high seas today.

Honestly it strikes me as kind of odd considering they showed all of our games in the triangle last year.  It wasn't like there weren't any Washington fans out here who loved the Rayudskins before this year.

Man I bet David Tepper is fuging raging about this though.  What an insult.

Right, the product was much worse last year (that is saying something) and it never happened. This is the first time I remember this occurring in the triangle since I’ve lived here the last ten years.

Yeah that's insane. I've lived here for almost 20 years and I feel like that's maybe only happened 1 or 2 other times.  I saw a twitter post about it and thought that can't be right and was still planning to turn the game on in the next hour. But nope, the tv guide is showing eagles and commanders in queue at 1 PM. I guess it's just a perfect storm: Panthers are near their nadir relevance playing a minimal stakes game against a non-divisional opponent. And the other offering includes a super high stakes divisional matchup against 2 (likely) playoff teams including the Commanders which are the next closest market to the area. I was going to add Washington was kind of a home market for the area pre-Panthers too, but unless you're in your 70s, I have to think almost everyone now unequivocably considers the Panthers the home team here.

I purchased the NFL NETWORK app and paid 11 bucks each month. The panthers are my market team. They have shown every game this season except 1.

You also get all prime games. No need for Netflix, ESPN, Peacock or Amazon .

 

Redzone is worth it alone

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By strato · Posted

      To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…

      Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.

      The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
