Panthers @ Ravens: My First Game


Captroop

Recommended Posts

So this morning I bought tickets to the Panthers vs. Ravens pre-season game in Baltimore. This will be, not only my first Panthers game ever, but my first pro football game ever! Very Excited! Panthers sideline, row 11. Anyone else making the trip up for the game?

Do you not live in the Carolinas? I only ask because you've been a regular here for quite some time.

Edit: Just read "in Baltimore." :P

I've only been to two Panthers games in my life, and they were both against the Saints (once in 2007, once in 2008). I really enjoy watching them in the comfort of my own home, plus it's cheaper. That being said, I do hope to go to a game or two this year.

I might be coming. I'm about 40 minutes south of Baltimore in Rockville. I might wait the week of and buy my tickets.

While the comfort of the homestead is great, there is alot to be said for going to a game. I try to get to 1 game a year, but it doesnt always work. Last year was the 1st time I had to see the Panthers lose, at the Miami game, thats not as much fun as watching a victory..

This year I will be going to my 1st away game, see what its like being hated. Lookin forward to wearing a Panthers jersey in Atlanta...

You should have lots of fun up there Captroop. Why Baltimore? That'll be fun for you, but it'll be better your 1st game at BoA...

You have to try to go to a regular season game sometime. The vibe is completely different from a preseason game. One good thing about a preseason game though is that the fear of losing isn't there. You can just relax and watch some players play that youll never see again after the season starts.

No poo, I used to live in Rockville until about 3 months ago. Now I'm in Bethesda.

A friend of mine offered to sell me his tickets to this game, but I think I'd rather just wait, save my money and try to go to a real game this season.

Damn, you're close. I went to Bethesda last Friday night.

Preseason is nothing like regular season games, personally I would skip the preseason games because the starters don't play but like the first 2 quarters, if that.

But If you've never been to a Panthers game then I would take what I can get. I'm definitely going to the Panthers vs. Bears game. It's gonna rock!

I plan on going to this game, how much are tickets running for a game like this? Ill be in Baltimore doing some work, I hear its a real, real bad city.

The inner harbor area's pretty nice and I've always enjoyed myself when I've been there. But it's not the type of city where you can just wander around. It goes from being nice to real ghetto very quickly.

Very true, around Camden yards, M&T Bank Stadium, and the inner Harbor are fine. I wouldn't go towards John Hopkins with all that's been going on recently.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
