Change of Pace, Board is Depressing Lately.

Fun vid, though I'm not so sure the board is so depressing these days.

This time last year, that was depressing :(

Last year it got to the point where I wasn't even depressed anymore. I couldn't even get myself excited for games. Of course I still watched every down and wore my jersey and tailgated, but deep down inside I knew it was one of those dreadful seasons. I was just laughing it was so bad. I mean you couldn't be sad or frustrated, you just had to laugh. I was expecting it to get worse and worse each week... and yep, it did. That's when you know it's bad. Zero hope. So **** all those other fans out there that want us to shut up about Newton. Hope is a powerful thing. And this is more than just hope... it's legitimate progress being made. You can see the improvements all around this organization. Good times ahead fellas.

Oh, I'm not talking about Panthers fans. Fans of other teams. :D

Some guy at the bar on Sunday was saying... "oh god please don't let the panthers beat the packers, it's all we'll hear about for a week is newton"

:mad:

I tried to help last year too, but the Clausen vs Moore debates got in my way.

BUT....I still thought we could have won more games had they not benched Moore after we started 0-2. Neither one of those guys got into a rhythm, although looking back, I'm wondering if that had everything to do with the concussion rule more so than Fox succumbing to fan and media pressure. Either way, I pray the Jags are as stupid and do the the same thing we did, and Start Gabbert after a bad game by their starter.

I don't think they will but I'd love it if they did. Not because I don't think Gabbert is any good, but if you thought Clausen had pressure last year....imagine the pressure Gabbert's going to feel when Cam's already done what he's done and he'll be playing against the guy that broke the record for most passing yards as a starting rookie QB.

I doubt Gabbert's going to give them the same poise and confidence Cam gave us, or he'd already be starting. Actually no matter who they start, it's going to be pressure for that guy. Even their starter is probably feeling the same pressure Moore felt if there's talks of Gabbert.

We win the psychological war going into this game either way you look at it. Sorry Jags, we've been there. We know what it's like.

PS: I will give mad pie to anyone that goes to a Jaguars board and makes a thread with that headline!

Said it before: I like when other team's fans are unhappy :D

This season is another 2002 to me. Asking for next year to be another 2003 might be a bit much, but who knows?

    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
