A question for Panther fans


Packersfan

Recommended Posts

I grew up a Dolphins fan because I liked watching Dan Marino play and I thought dolphins were the coolest animal or some weird crap. Either way, I still root for them a bit but not all that much.

I generally pull for teams that did poorly the previous year, but not all that seriously. I watch any game that's on because I like the sport, but I don't really follow any team closely other than the Panthers and to a much lesser extent the Fins.

Oh, and I almost always root for the Lions on Thanksgiving... lotta good it does them.

Grew up a Colts fan. Suffered through years of 2-14 seasons. I remember when Marty Domres and Jeff George were the QBs. Then the Panthers come to town and I struggled to switch, but I did. And the Colts get good.

So they are AFC and I root for them unless we play, but the passion is for the Panthers. I don't like to lose, but I admire loyalty. My friends picked on me for being a Colt fan, and they changed from the Steelers to the Niners to the Patriots.

Staying loyal to the team will makes the winning sweeter. That is why I don't come down on Clausen. There are 31 other QBs for me to criticize.

Nope, one team. Was a 49ers fan from about 1980 on, good timing huh? :) I tried to be a 9er fan and a Panther fan, but being in the same division at the beginning didn't help. Then the 49ers fired Mooch and the decision was made.

I can pull for the Steelers, Jets and Chiefs, but really I don't give a poo about them.

    • You making fun of or not realizing how important that actually is leads me to believe you don’t have either of those assets and are subconsciously upset about it, or you’ve never been in a position to be a leader and thus you don’t value good leadership which Bryce oozes with. 
    • I said this last night to family. You can look at Bryce as not a “strong and physical” presence and that’s not going to change on you can look at it, that this guy has the type of skillset that sets him up to only get better for the next 5-7 years every year. He’s not going to know less about the game next year than this year. His timing will be better, his pocket presence better (even though the guy works around a pocket amazingly in my opinion), everything is just going to improve every year and I believed he’s already proved the doubters wrong other than nut huggers on here who just want a big strong man to drool over.
    • The Seahawks won an emotional, divisional, overtime rivalry game vs the Rams on a Thursday night (Dec 18).  That gives them 10 days to prepare for the Panthers, but the Christmas holiday fell a week later--I bet they were afforded an extra day for travel-many coming back east.  Following the Panthers, Seattle plays at San Francisco for the division title (in all probability).   The Rams finish the season with games against the Falcons and Cardinals, two likely wins, pushing them to 13-4.  The Niners finish the season with home games against the Bears and Seahawks. Seattle finishes the season with the Panthers on the road and SF in California.   It is easy to see how preparing for the Panthers, during the holiday break and with the Niners waiting for them in SF a week later for (what could be) the NFC West title and #1 Seed in the NFC, could create the perfect trap game scenario.  The Panthers at home are 5-2.   In the past 2 weeks, the Seahawks struggled to beat the Phillip Rivers Colts in Seattle and then pulled off a miraculous, emotional victory at home vs. the Rams.  I am not convinced that they are as good as advertised. Seattle is a TD favorite in Charlotte.  I feel that Carolina by 3 may be more accurate.  While I am still not confident in this team's consistency and it never seems to dominate, it sure feels like a trap game for Seattle to me.  How could they NOT be thinking of San Francisco right now?  They are not used to being in this position (current players) and it is human nature.  Carolina 27, Seattle 24.
