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?

    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
