I'm going to approach this season the way I do Will Ferrell movies.

ZERO expectations. I mean it. With Will's movies I know I'm not going to get a Brando or Depp like performance. Stunts like Jackie Chan. Depth like Hanks or twists like M Night.

I check that at the door, get a small popcorn(no butter) and a Cherry Icee Slush and party on rock star.

So ima(as the young kids say) gonna do the same with the Panthers. They cleaned house, well by God so am I. New slate for me too.

I'm even gonna have to buy a program for the first time since 96 just see see who these cats are and even learn their bio's cold. Forget coming up with a nickname for the D Line. This guy just wants to be able to name a guy playing NT.

Do yourself a favor and join me on my popcorn movie quest for this season and ride the wave of zero expectations and tons of fun.

Think about those roadtrips where you didn't have things all planned out and junk. You just got in your car and drove. And you had a friggin blast.

2010 Panther's Football, Just Play Football baby.

I don't feel like I can get into that kind of mindset. I can get into the mindset knowing that if we suffer some serious injuries that I won't get mad at the losses knowing that we'll have some pretty modest backups.

I feel like are starters are experienced and talented enough that we aren't in a rebuilding year.

If the season is anything like this dialogue we will be undefeated.

Ron Burgundy: Discovered by the Germans in 1904, they named it San Diego, which of course in German means a whale's vagina.

Veronica Corningstone: No, there's no way that's correct.

Ron Burgundy: I'm sorry, I was trying to impress you. I don't know what it means. I'll be honest, I don't think anyone knows what it means anymore. Scholars maintain that the translation was lost hundreds of years ago.

Veronica Corningstone: Doesn't it mean Saint Diego?

Ron Burgundy: No. No.

Veronica Corningstone: No, that's - that's what it means. Really.

Ron Burgundy: Agree to disagree.

Movies like Anchorman and Step Brothers push the "stupid" envelope to the max, you can't help but laugh.

I loved Leslie Nielson movies as a kid but you knew those were stupid. Will Ferrel Movies are set up like standard comedy which makes the stupid so much more obvious.

I'm with you, dude. I think there's something strangely liberating about just sitting down to catch a game with no expectations for a change. And let's face it - win, lose or draw, it's football! Thank God the season's finally here! Sitting down at the stadium or with good friends, turning up a few cold ones, grilling up some burgers or steaks, wearing your team's colors and talking trash whether it's based in fact and reality or not - does it get any better than that? And even if your team loses, there's always next week - at least until mid January. There'll be plenty of time to fret over performances and the win loss columns later. Right now, I'm just pumped for football again.

      I hope you understand that this Anti Bryce thing as you call it is really a pro Panthers thing. I think I can safely use we. We want the best for the Panthers.  As far as this other post saying ‘Anti’ Bryce people do misinformation.. you mean like going all in on “Renfro should have caught” that poorly thrown ball? I guess it was week 1. And calling it a drop. Comical btw.  I wonder, did you call that out or let it slide because it aligned with your agenda?

      These are great posts with the comparisons and the numbers.   I haven’t lookyat Smity’s numbers since probably the first time he was on the ballot.  But if you watched every week you know what he is. Whatever his yardage or targets numbers were.  He was fuging dominant. I have watched since the AFL days and seen who there is to see. There are many great WRs over the years. GREAT WRs. Smitty is up there in the game of football.

      Smith is clear cut HOF if you judge what he did by reception. Fitzgerald was a stat padder.    The most Steve Smith was ever targeted in his career was in 2005 (150 targets). The same year he wins the triple crown.    Larry Fitzgerald was targeted more than 150 times over 9 separate seasons. Not once eclipsing 1500 yards in a season.    The over glazing of Larry Fitzgerald going around is way over blown. ARZ was top 10 in passing attempts nearly his entire prime. Steve Smith and Andre Johnson had it far worse and would have surpassed his #s in the same situation.
