This was discussed somewhat in the Panthers forum, but I wanted to bring it down here and expand it a bit.

The ad in question...

The shows used, their settings and the connections they made:

The Brady Bunch, Southern California - Chargers

Happy Days , Milwaukee - Packers

90210, Beverly Hills - Raiders, Vikings (Brenda was from Minnesota)

Seinfeld, New York - Bills, Giants, Cowboys (Newman)

The Office, Scranton, PA - Steelers

The Sopranos, New Jersey - Jets

Cheers, Boston - Patriots

The Golden Girls, Miami - Dolphins

Full House, San Francisco - 49ers

The Dukes of Hazzard, Georgia - Falcons

Family Guy, Rhode Island - Patriots, Browns (Cleveland)

Sesame Street, fictional midwest - Rams

Family Matters, Chicago - Bears

Alf, Southern California - Panthers

How I Met Your Mother, New York - Steelers, Vikings, Jets

Friends, Manhattan - Jets

Glee, Lima, OH - Bengals, Browns, Colts

Modern Family, Los Angeles - Redskins

The Simpsons, Springfield - Lions, Steelers, Packers, Vikings, Bengals, Raiders, Titans, Buccaneers, Texans, Chiefs, Dolphins, Jaguars, Eagles, Saints, Seahawks, Cardinals, Ravens

South Park, Colorado - Broncos

And of course, there was the theme from "Dallas" playing in the background the whole time.

So besides the obvious misses (like Alf and the Panthers) and the fact that they used the Simpsons characters to essentially make sure they didn't miss anyone, where did they screw up?

What shows would you have associated with the Panthers and others?

Modern Family being the Skins was kind of odd - the West Wing could've worked there.

Home Improvement for the Lions was mentioned in the other one. Roseanne would've been a good one for the Bears too.

And with the older show clips, it would've been cool had they been era appropriate. Fonz with a Starr jersey (instead of Rodgers), Mike Brady with Hadl and Alworth stuff on the wall (not Rivers/Gates), Norm walking into Cheers with a red Grogan jersey (instead of Welker)

WKRP for the Bengals would have been better than Glee. Likewise, Drew carey for Cleveland, but it's on Fox, so...

I'd have preferred Bob Newhart to Family Matters for Chicago, but Family matters is still good.

Frasier for the Seahawks would have been good. X-Files might actually make even more sense than the West Wing for the Skins.

      The only thing I said was he was part of the staff that made part of the decisions, and that I am judging the decisions made by that group as a whole. As assistant GM, you can pretty much guarantee his input held more sway than an intern or the guy that takes coffee requests. Fitterer didn't operate in a vacuum. Neither does Morgan now. While Fitterer did have the ultimate decision, to say that Dan had no input in ranking boards, evaluating FAs, trade offers or anything else would be asinine. We all know he did. Otherwise what the hell was his job as assistant GM? He wouldn't have been kept for 3 years if he was arguing every decision Scott ever made.    And the actual quote was "Morgan has done a bang up job in the draft and FA. Compared to what the last guy did, he is kicking ass and taking names." So is XL kicking ass and Brooks taking names from last years draft or did I get it backwards? We took Wallace over Payton Wilson because he was an injury risk after trading up for a RB with a torn ACL? Which one of the kicking ass and taking names was that?  Maybe we should review the thousands of gameday posts calling for XL to get off the field because he's a bust and can't catch a cold. We could review the posts about Brooks but... And Wilson. He's at 118 tackles this season vs 36 for Wallace.  I gave credit to Dan for a good draft this year. But I'm also not ignoring last year's draft either since he did that one after the last guy too.  That's not a strawman.

      And then, in week 18, we can take Mayfield out of the game and whoop Bridgewater's @$$ for good measure! Let the former QB revenge train roll on!!

      If we keep our guards in tact ($$$) and go with Mays at C, some OT depth would be nice. I think we should be happy about CB with Thornton's development (pre injury) and Smith Wade. I think Ransom is developing nicely, but I would like to see a FS type for situations. We suck at ILB and Edge (as a whole). We should be OK at RB.  I hope we sign Dowdle to a short contract. QB?  There are signs of hope and development.  (I don't like our backup QB) TE?  Good draft for TE, but I think we are developing with Evans, Sanders, and Tremble. WR?  A #2 with Coker and Horn in the slot.  XL?  What is that? We should be good in 2026. Morgan does more than draft.  Free agency has been strong too.  (Just emptying my brain on your comment--sorry)
