Are you a Panther fan or a Carolina football fan??

Many of us on this site bleed panther blue but I wonder where the alliance is at with you guys.. are you guys fans of the " panthers" like you just like the roster/ ownership. Like if the panthers pulled a baltimore colts style move, just got up and left and moved to ....... oh let's say LA and ownership, roster and philosophy remained the same would you remain a Panther fan or not?

And on the flipside,do you support the panthers just because they are the local team? ? If the panthers left would you embrace the new team like you do this one??

As for me its a little of both. I do like our team because of our roster and would follow our team if they moved with the current roster until most the players retired or went to other teams.. although i would end up supporting my hometown team.

Panthers are my número uno above all else. Being on the west coast my whole life, I'd support no matter where they were. Of course if the team was run every year like this year, for like close to a decade or so, I'd probably disown them. I wouldn't be able to watch the NFL as much as college if it came to that though.

I'm not sure.

I'm not a "Carolina" sports fan Per se although I do largely pull for Carolina teams. For instance, I'm a Panthers, Gamecock fan, and I hope for the Hurricanes win even though I don't really follow them, but I'm also an Orlando Magic fan, and once upon a time was a Marlins "fan" until they got so greedy for a new stadium that they started cutting all their best players to prove a point, effectively ending any interest I could've ever possibly developed in baseball. (although the Magic and Marlins both being in Florida was a coincidence.)

If the Panthers pulled a Seattle Supersonics, and became a new team completely in a different city, I really don't know what I'd do. It would be kind of interesting to have to buy all new apparel and logo "decor" for a new team, but at the same time, the same team, however I can't say for sure I would pull for the new team, since they are after all, a different team.

If they pulled a Baltimore Colts, then I really can't say what I do for that either..

Come to think of it, I might be more inclined to stay with them if they pulled a Supersonics over a Colts, simply because I don't want my Panthers to be another state's team, although I don't know if it's about the geography aspect of it, or if I'm simply being selfish because they're MY team.

NOW, the big question for you guys is, if they pulled a Cleveland Browns, and became a new team, and then later on down the line, the Carolina Panthers returned-alongside the new team (just like the Ravens/Browns) what would you guys do if you had already become fans of the new team?

    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.  
    • Jackie, any more reps tomorrow, or is that it for this session?  thanks for the work
    • How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
