This is really making it hard to be a Panther fan.

I want to stick it out and just say next year we will be back. I have watched us get beaten 8 times this year and after every game I am mad and feel like what was the point of that, it wasn't very entertaining. I live in Raleigh and went to the 49ers game, up at 6am to get to the stadium by 10:30. I am thanking God right now that I went to that game instead of todays game. I just don't know if i would have had the intestunal fortitude to sit through it and then drive back to Raleigh feeling ripped off and upset about spending 85$ a seat. The point of my post is that we are losing fans by the boatload right now because would be considered a die hard fan.

A true fan doesn't find it hard to remain with their team. Good or bad.

That true and false.

Like I live in Wilmington, so driving 4 hours to see this disaster is a stretch.

The OP lives in RDU, which isn't quite so bad, but similar principle.

Nothing is as bad as losing then having to drive hours home.

That said, its never hard to be a fan. You either love the team or you don't.

Didn't have many in the first place, but this is true. I live in Raleigh, too, and dont see many Panther fans around. I talk a lot of junk about our owner, and see us becoming pretty dern awful for years to come, but Im sticking with them till the end.

I'll still wear my Panthers gear. I don't care if they lose every game from here out the same as today. They will be better down the road (count on it). Just know that the fuctards that are talking poo now will be in the same boat at some point in the future (unless they are bandwagon scum - then they'll be pulling for someone else). *** the Saints and the 30 other teams in the NFL. I WILL NEVER PULL FOR ANOTHER TEAM AS LONG AS THE PANTHERS ARE HERE OR JUST BECAUSE ONE OF THE PANTHER'S NOW PLAYS FOR THEM. I WILL PULL AGAINST ANY PLAYER THAT VOLUNTARILY LEAVES THIS TEAM LIKE THE TRAITORS THAT THEY ARE!

    • For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.  
    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
