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.

    • Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others. 
    • I'm excited. I love situations like this when you could potentially find a diamond in the rough on the cheap. And you know guys like this are gonna put in the work and desire way more than others to be great.
