Retrospect from a Saints Fan

I have always tolerated Panthers' fans more than Falclowns and Buc-ups, as well. It probably has something to do with the time I spent in NC. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that my hatred of Atlanta and Dallas are so great that I have none left for the Panthers. :confused:

I would give up last years superbowl win + any hope of another to get back my home and life before Katrina... I would do it in a skinny minute

While I can understand where you are coming from, it is hard for me to feel the same way as the she-bitch didn't affect us in quite the same way up here as it did y'all down there.

It is pretty obvious sharper was excited about the fumble, not that he hurt stewart. It is also pretty obvious Sharper looked concerned while standing there.

The best part is, if one of your safetys hurt one of our runningbacks and got the ball back in the same play, your players would be acting the same way and you would be happy right there with them. There is nothing wrong with that either. But I am logical enough to understand that they were rejoicing in recovering the ball, not hurting a player.

I guess Merritweather, Harrison, Collins and Mikell are all assholes too because they all act the exact same way when making a huge play like that.

If Sharper is an asshole, thats fine. I can respect your opinion. But, don't act like you wouldn't be behind your safetys celebrating for a play like that and don't act like your players wouldn't be acting the same exact way if the role was reversed because you are outright lying to yourself.

I thought he was a little too happy but you're right; I'm generally happy in the same situations and I'm not even a player.

Hell, I'll admit that I sometimes snicker when I see another player get the wind knocked out of him (not seriously hurt - but ends up laying there for a while).

If there is one thing we can all drink to right now... it is to the complete and utter destruction of the Falcons Thursday. 3 losses to the Steelers, Eagles and the Ravens pretty much proves a point that the Falcons will fall on the road (as usual) and lose to Green Bay. I am also aware that our 6 wins have not been against the best of teams, but I am also aware and not claiming we are the best team in the NFC right now.

I am pretty classy fellow, but when it comes to Atlanta, fug that city.

    • 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
