Bucs get bad news

[NorthTryon]

I cannot stand them. They are winning the division repeatedly now only because we are failing to put a decent product on the field. As we slowly become relevant again, this division is wide open. Baker Mayfield does not deserve to be handed a division trophy every year due solely to the ineptitude of the other teams in the division. I also hate that Lavonte David gets to play a seemingly twenty year career and we only got a blink of an eye with Luke.

This news got me thinking and now i'm curious if it's just me so i have a question for all of you.

I despise Atl an NO but not the Bucs. I dot know why but I don't. So my question is this. 

Do the rest of Panther's fans feel the same and why do you think that is??

Division rival.  

I'll NEVER root for any of them under any circumstances.

Is it that or are their fans less offensive? 

Great point.  It's a combination of the two.

Out of the three I am most indifferent to the Bucs.

At the same time. They hold bragging rights over us and the rest of the division with two titles. They can get fuged they've had their time to shine and their future hall of famers they haven't suffered by any means. So while I can't say I despise them as much as the Saints or Falcons I will still unequivocally root for them to lose every single time. We need to stop farting around give them a run for their money already.

I've never had a bad experience as a Panthers fan in Tampa. It's almost always a fun time

Tampa is my favorite road trip game to see. There is a little less gasoline on the fire for them because they were a putrid franchise that has overcome their 0-26 start, poor ownership, terrible front office, players publically letting it be known to not draft them, and it gives hope to other putrid franchises like us.

well....   if ATL/NO/TB are playing each other, we'll hope for the team that wins will help our own standings in the division.  It's not exactly cheering FOR someone as much as it's cheering AGAINST another

I think it's because we've had a player to hate on NO (Breese) and Atl (Ryan) while Tampa had Winston who was never really a threat or dislikable like the other 2

Nobody said anything about rooting for them just that I don't hate them the same.

I really hated the Bucs when they were coming off their Super Bowl win like 20+ years ago.  We kind of had a pride battle between our defenses.  The Bucs SB defense was fantastic, but ours would go onto win the NFC in 2003.

Blocking that extra point in week 2 of 2003 is probably my favorite moment against the Bucs.

The Bucs had plenty of candidates back on that 1st Superbowl team. When the league assigned them to the NFC South, they were barking about how they got demoted to a division with loser teams.

There's been some good ones. That and the stiffarm on MNF come to mind.
