Could you ever give up the Panthers?

The only way i give up on the panthers is if i die and they don't show panther games in heaven.

Pretty sure they're showing the 2010 season on a continuous loop in Hell so either way you're probably okay.

I was just thinking about this the other day, if I moved away from Charlotte would I ever have the urge to root for the new home team and look at the Panthers as my secondary. After about 5 seconds of thinking I decided that no, this would never happen. Now having Cam makes the decision even easier.

the refs are terrible this year, and it's not just the panthers' games. the rules are becoming bullshit as well. i've been getting incredibly frustrated watching all the games every weekend and seeing players get penalized for good plays

I've already moved out of market to NYC, but I still watch em each week via the PS3. So as long as it's affordable (just barely is now), and available (can't have a dish here), I'll root for them 100%. But the day I can't watch them, they'll still be my team, but I may have to pick up an AFC team in my market to watch. Thank you PS3! :)

So even if the NFL literally turns in their pads for flags and it became a flag football league, would you guys still watch the Panthers then?

I would stop watching at that point but that is pretty drastic. That's more than change that's renovating the game and playing a different one entirely. In order to get me to stop watching thought, these are the lengths they'd have to go to because I don't think I'll ever stop watching the panthers even if they move or I move. Under the ONE very unrealistic condition, which is the Panthers moving to Atlanta, which would surely taint them with it's over abundance of trash and suckage.

If you want to see two living things kill each other, go watch a dog fight and leave football for those of us who like the competitive edge of the sport and feel better knowing that these guys who give us everything they have for a few short years will not suffer the rest of their life from depression and insufferable brain trauma related symptoms.

The wave of the future is making sure that these players aren't brain dead by the time they're 40 and end up shooting themselves in the chest to donate their brain to science so nobody has to go through what they did anymore. Your regressive idea of what constitutes "manliness" in football is indicative of your ignorance to what former players are suffering through now. If you can forgive that damage against them for the amount they were paid to endure it, then you're in the minority.

This machismo about hitting is borne of ignorance and blood lust. Raise your standards.

You couldn't be talking more out of your ass. So defenders now have to wait until the receiver catches the ball instead of laying a hit to cause an incompletion for fear of getting a flag. Everyone knows that is bullsh**. There's already penalties against helmet to helmet, and rightfully so. Right now the NFL is over doing it. They are calling clean hits now on defenders because they dont stop and wait for the receiver to catch the ball first. Get your head out of your ass.

The fact you can't be civil kinda suggests you don't have much of a point.

I would have no problem with flag football as long as it was just as competitive, featured athletes just as good as are in the NFL now, and moved at a good pace.

Frankly, if it got rid of the play stoppage every two minutes for a penalty or review, it might be worth it.

If it ever got to flag football I'm outta here :(

I'm just sick of the high and mighty white knights of the board. And if my point hasn't been clear enough for you because you focus on the passionate words that hurt your feelings then there's not much else that can be said to you. If you just have a problem with my postings, well I couldn't care less of your opinion of how I post my opinion.

I always thought it was once the ball was touched by anyone after the QB anyone can hit anyone (except QB, and with the distance from LOS guidelines). This has changed?

No. What's changed is now defenders have to wait for the receiver to catch the ball before hitting them. Maybe even make them a nice sandwich after softly laying them on the ground.

If being willing to see fewer bone crushing hits and more head scratching flags in order to see less retired players be crippled, have permanent brain damage and die in their 40's is getting on one's high horse, so be it.

But please, continue to post your menacing words o' truth against society's softness from the comfort of your padded computer chair.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
