What does JR think when he looks at half empty stands? Honestly, what goes through his mind when he looks at thousands and thousands of empty seats at BOA?

He expected it. Jerry is a business man, he isn't stupid. He lost Peppers, a Carolina native and fan favorite, Jake, a bunch of other veterans, and had made plans to raise ticket prices...

He knew the seats would be empty.

Jerry is banking this season on the lockout and he's trying to prove a point by being "cheap". I'm sure he doesn't like the empty seats, but believe me... he expected this to happen and he's accepted it.

Was carolina the only team to raise ticket prices this year? Does the economic problems result in low attendances? I know it has for me, I would have gone to both home games. But with lack of finances and a new baby added, it makes things difficult for myself. I can only speak for my own situations pertaining to attendance. But if anybody is so upset that they refuse to attend and spend another cent, you can donate your tickets to me. I'll be more than happy to take your place in a seat, winning or loosing.

I bet if you put those weather conditions in 6 or 7 NFL cities this weekend and make the home team the underdog you'd have seen the same thing regarding the empty seats.

it was raining in KC wk 1 when the chargers were in town for MNF. stadium was full, but that is one of the historic franchises, and they got a new stadium.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      There was no reason to believe in either Cam or Jake as a top tier elite QB before those seasons either. Cam was an "athletic" QB in most people's minds and his passing skills were open for debate. And there was a bit to that as he was still trying to get that massive power in his arm tamed to be able to put some touch on his passes. And then, he did it. Missiles became bombs, the firing lanes became points of finesse. Cam grew up and leveled up, while still retaining the ability and drive to truck people whenever he wanted. And Jake... no one freaking believed in Jake except Jake himself. He got, and let's be honest with this, one chance in a losing game to make something out of his career. And he rose to the occasion like some kind of mythical hero and continued to do so for the season. He became a true leader for the team, and his gunslinger capabilities rehabbed Moose's career and created Smitty as a force in the league. Smitty went from a barker to a biter. But no one believed in Jake going in. And they trashed him on his way out. Now Bryce... who knows? I've seen some improvement. Maybe he finds his footing. His teammates seem to love and respect him and that means a lot. The game should be moving at his speed now. He has weapons available to him and maybe a defense that doesn't just roll over by the third quarter. And his coach seems to be moving this team in the right direction. Could he do it? It's up to him, if he can find the magic like Jake and Cam did. But don't doubt this, magic is really, really hard to find.
