I've been here since 2003.

I think you are a couple of years ahead of me. Honestly I couldn't tell you the exact year because I'm old and I don't remember what I did yesterday. I know it's over 20 years.

"toxicity" meaning we didn't use mod powers to create a personal echo chamber for them.

Sure seems this place is overall considerably less toxic after most of the people whining about people having the audacity to express football opinions on a forum built to discuss football up and left. I hope they're happy at their Discord. They wanted an echo chamber and they made themselves one. It worked out best for everyone.

Yeah I’d say we are very lenient on the side of free discussion on this site without getting heavy handed in the moderation.

At least 20 years myself here with my old account and this one. Been through many ups and downs on this board

I forgot about my old account. I switched my username after the crash. I'll have to see if it's still on here and how old it is.

I remember migrating to this board I think from the official one?  My memory is foggy around it.  I remember the Panthers used to have an official board around the golden age of AOL.  They ended up shutting it down probably because they didn't want anything to do with people like us lol.

Was the huddle called something else, or was there an intermediate site in between official forums and the huddle?  I think I've had like 3-5 user names on this site because I'd make a new one to lurk every few years and forget the credentials/email associated with it.

It was called the Panthers Huddle before the team made Jeremy change it. I was a member years before that happened I know that for sure.

I came over from the old Scout Inc. site. Quite a few of us did. Not sure how many folks are still here from there now. It all kind of runs together in my head at this point and I can't really distinguish one from the other anymore it's been so long ago.

Maybe that's what it was.  That sounds familiar.

The Panthers did briefly have a forum for the fans on their site. Yeah, they probably got tired of getting clowned on for doing dumb poo and just shut it down. LOL

I think they didn't want to be associated with what people were posting.  People didn't hold back when posting online back then.  This is the prehistoric dial-up internet, where most things were anonymous and not viewed by many people.

I remember people arguing about going to war with Iraq after Sept 11 on the main forum lol.  I think that's why they were like alright you guys can post this poo somewhere else.

      Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers

      BREAKING: Panthers interested in Justin Simmons

      By Icege · Posted

      While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
