Carolina is a losing franchise

Quit being over sensitive when someone tells it like it is. If you think this franchise is a winner you're a huge homer. Keep neg-repping me, I don't particularly care. If being a "true fan" is believing this franchise is a winner in this league and calling anyone who speaks out on the performance of this franchise an "idiot" or "bandwagon fan" then so be it. I'm tired of hearing about youth, rebuilding, next year, the future, etc. You play to win the fuging game. I want this team to win.

I'm not mad or yelling for this team to make moves & win now. I understand this team is rebuilding & growing this year. I also see the great potential this group has & truly believe this core group of players will win at least 1 Super Bowl. But getting mad at someone for saying this franchise isn't a winner is stupid. Quit being over-sensitive.

I love this franchise & pull for them harder than anyone one Sunday. I wear Panther shirts, sweaters, jerseys year round & always defend my beloved team to the idiotic Steeler & Cowboy followers who seem to infest NC. I follow this teams every move. It's actually the only sports team I pull for. It's Panthers or bust.

I've been a fan since I was 7 years old in '95. I was in Clemson for the inaugural home game. I remember the great '96 season when we made it to the NFCCG. I was in Houston in '03 when we lost the Super Bowl. I remember the heartbreak of losing with very good teams in '05 & '09. But I also remember 1-15, 2-14, & the 8 other losing seasons.

Let's take a look at two franchises that entered the league one year apart. One team is a winner, the other is a loser.

Baltimore Ravens:

1x Super Bowl Champion

8 playoff appearances

9 winning seasons

24 games over .500

Carolina Panthers:

4 playoff appearances

4 winning seasons

20 games under .500

I will always love & pull for this team, but that doesn't mean I have to be content with the results. Maybe if more people like me would voice their opinion to the FO instead of bashing those who do we'd become a more consistent winner.

To be fair, you must point out that Baltimore was not an expansion team, but rather the Cleveland Browns.

But if you were only 7 in 1995, you might not know that.

Yeah because our FO really gives a poo what you think about how they are running the team.

You're tired of hearing about youth? HELLO?! We were one of the youngest teams in the NFL last year and we have a super young QB. So, get used to hearing about youth because its not going away for a while.

I will always love and pull for this team too, but you don't see me going around this board like you complaining and arguing with people because IN YOUR OPINION we are a team/franchise with a losing mentality.

      This.  He knows where the seam is about to open, cuts, and accelerates hard. He’s slippery and tacklers always seem to be taking awkward angles to get to him. No dancing. Runs low and powerful. Almost never goes backwards for a loss. We’ve rarely had the guy who bounces off of tacklers. It’s nice seeing another one.

      ESPN's All Quarter Century Team 2000-2025

      I can't speak for others but yes I read it. The conclusions are based heavily around the use of the statistical metric DYAR created by football outsiders and used by ESPN for this article. It only includes players whose production began in 2000. But excluding HOF running backs who produced BIG in an iteration of the NFL that was not yet catered to making things much easier for offenses in order for them to prop up more recent candidates is rather absurd and seems like just playing favorites regardless of where one might fall on their opinion of the use of the metric in question.

      Same thing I first thought but then I saw it was against Jacksonville and took about half a second of playing to know. I was at that game.  I can't tell you my level of excitement when I saw it was Delhomme instead of Peete who came out for the 2nd half. Delhomme has and will probably always be my favorite Panther.
