Predict the ratio of Panthers to redskins fans Sunday...

Wouldn't surprise me if there were a ton of Skins fans...I live up near DC, and even the wealthy DMVers (Dc/MD/VA) are starting to get priced out of their stadium by Dan Snyder. A decades-long season ticket waiting list at FedEx field has been whittled down to nothing by high prices and little to show for it on the field. Absurd costs like $40 to park in an area that isn't even walking distance to the stadium (you have to wait in a long line to take a shuttle) and $9 for a beer have got people looking for cheaper alternatives of the cities (Philly, Pitt, NYC, Baltimore, Charlotte) within a half-day's drive. This year, we've got less demand than Philly, lower costs than NYC, and are on the schedule, unlike Pitt and Baltimore.

And in my opinion, you can't put too much blame on Panthers fans for not snapping up the tickets and keeping the Skinsheads out...For plenty of them, this is the only game all season they've had to plan to attend, and for us it's one of eight our single-game attendees have to choose from. In other words, they're probably coming in droves and have had their tickets for a long time.

I'll say 30% Redskins fans, officially.

Why people continue to put up with Snyder's crap is beyond me.

Here's a great article that outlines exactly how much a tool Snyder is:

Funny thing is, he sued over this article and brought it way more attention then it ever would have originally had.

Edit: then he withdrew the lawsuit and claimed he had never actually read the article, LOL

Dan Snyder = assclown

    • I am optimistic that we might be on the verge of fielding a sustainable offense finally. The Bryce stats listed above are definitely encouraging. I don’t want to overly inflate this and disregard the previous 1 and a half seasons of production from Bryce and “cherry pick” stats but do hope the benching turns into an inflection point in his trajectory.      Lots of excitement heading into this season. 
    • Summary The 2024 Carolina defense posted a 44.9 grade last year, which was the worst in the NFL since 2020. They also had the worst receiving grade in the NFL despite a QB that emerged in the second half of last year. TMac is most likely WR1 in this class and is now WR1 in Carolina He's going to be incredibly helpful on go balls, dig routes, and in the redzone. Highlights show just that: First highlight is Arizona vs. Utah. 4 verts vs. cover-0, TMac lined up alone on a go ball vs. press = we're launching it Second highlight shows his potential as the X. Runs a backside in-cut and the Tampa-2 MLB sells out on the corner route, leaving his back to TMac. Tough over the middle, explosive after the play. Sees TMac doing a lot of what Mike Evans was asked to do in Tampa. Third highlight shows how effective TMac is in the redzone and it's his one-handed catch vs. Travis Hunter. Brings "indefensible plays." Has size advantage that can beat guys, can jump, and has ridiculous hands. Will help Bryce in year 3 as it will allow him to continue playing "fearless" like he did after coming back from benching. Highlights show where TMac fits and re-emphasizes how he's going to make things easier on go balls, dig routes, and in the redzone: Fourth highlight shows Bryce vs. ATL when he hit AT vs. AJ Terrell down the sideline. Bryce has to hold the single deep safety during his drop to give Thielen a chance (who is only 4yds off of the LOS when Bryce is throwing it). Registers the big-time throw attacking vertically. Fifth highlight is vs. KC on a blitz where Bolton is coming downhill while Karlaftis is dropping back over the middle. Has an in-route that has outside leverage with Chris Jones applying immediate pressure. Layered it over Karlaftis' head for the completion. Sixth highlight is the fade route TD to David Moore vs. Zona. in the redzone. David Moore was the X on this play. Thought this was interesting, especially considering recent conversations about Bryce's intermediate game needing to be better:
    • Nah its Rod Brindamour 0-11 in the Eastern Conference Finals under him.....   Three trips in seven years Zero WINS in the third round.
