From time to time, panthro, scrum or even myself will reference this fine film. For those who don't know.

Behold:

On the planet “Krull,” civilization seems to have advanced to the middle ages, earth-time. Theirs is a feudal system ruled by a king. Horseback is the primary mode of transportation and the weapon of choice is the sword. The planet itself is eerily similar to ours, with mountains and deserts and forests and so forth. The biggest difference is that its inhabitants are under attack from an alien race. These aliens, called Slayers, travel in a ship dubbed the “dark fortress” which looks like a large pile of rocks and materializes here and there without warning. Slayer soldiers dress head to toe in dark armor and carry lances which occasionally shoot lasers. Their leader is a giant beast known simply as “The Beast.”

But about the marketing.

      Bleacher report not buying Panthers’ hype

      Seems pretty generous to me.  6 wins would be about the ceiling far as I can tell.

      Off Season topic: What Panthers question do you have that you know will never be answered?

      By beo · Posted

      I will never get over how much of Cam's prime was wasted by Mike Shula. People say that he should've doubled Von but that's pretty much what he tried to do, the Broncos sent more guys in response to it as LG's post pointed out and then he just never adjusted. Turtling up in max protect actually played into Denver's hands because it gave Cam less places to go with the ball. We had Philly Brown and Ted Ginn Jr trying to beat Chris Harris and Aqib Talib on long-developing routes against the best pass rush arguably of the decade, it was just downright comedic. What he should have done was chip Von with a TE and putting more WRs on the field, running quick plays designed to get the ball out as fast as possible. But Shula's passing scheme was woefully out of date, designed around taking long-developing deep shots rather than efficient chain-moving plays. We asked Cam to attempt passes harder than probably any other QB in the league at that time on a play to play basis outside of Rodgers under late stage McCarthy. The instant that Cam got something resembling a competent offensive coordinator in Norv Turner his completion percentage and accuracy in the short game skyrocketed, and if not for injury the false narrative about him being an inaccurate thrower would have likely died out. Shula went 15-1 with the #1 ranked offense in the league and didn't get a single head coach interview. Literally everyone in the league knew he was riding Cam's coattails except for Ron and JR, it's sickening.
