some have higher expectations, obviously yours are in the basement.

Dude, is it that serious? I swear. You've been on here long enough to know that it's all basically just a way to shoot the poo. I'm somewhat disappointed in you. But, then, again, I suppose that some people's lives hinge upon their armchair scouting on an NFL team message board. At least with Cam there were some half-way serious topics of discussion going on, but you Kuechly-is-god types are just way over the top. Oh, I know, you are related to him, right? Get a grip.

You speak of expectations, and yet you act like you expect everyone to be on one accord when it comes to draft picks. The only expectations that matter to me are the ones that affect me personally. Yes, I love me some Carolina Panthers, and I have high expectations for the team, but, ultimately, my expectations for the team only have the importance that each member of the team attributes to me as a fan. Moreover, I love me some Carolina Huddle (sometimes), and it mostly meets my expectations: to be informed, shoot the poo, have a little fun, argue, debate, and experience some kinship among others who love the Panthers just as much as I do. Does that mean I'll come upon the occasional asshole, sensitive type, immature kid, racist, Saint fan, etc.? Of course. This being the case, I think that it's an unrealistic expectation to think that everyone is on here singing Kumbaya.

If you can't see the humor in a Photo-shopped McGarigle on a Darth Vader poster saying, "Luke, I am your daddy", in light of the debate that's been going on---and you feel that my expectations of humor (or otherwise) are in the basement because I do see it as funny as hell, especially within the perspective of this thread, then that says more about you than me.

    • For Bryce’s obvious shortcomings (bad pun), there is upside to his game. This isn’t being a homer or apologists, but I like to consider myself fair in criticism.  He’s far tougher than I ever thought he’d be. I really thought homie would have been broken in half by now. I don’t know how he’s not, but he’s not.  He is prone to turning the ball over early in games which digs a huge hole the team is not built to come back from, but dude DOES come up with crucial first down in crucial situations. It’s NEVER pretty, but he just kind of has the shining. He gets bailed out LOTS, and the team still loses games because of him, but he’s a bit of an enigma. He’s a turnover machine that is clutch in big moments.  He’s a smart/elusive cat. He kind of has to be with his limitations. His audibles are almost always correct and he understands coverages. I don’t see him getting fooled too frequently. His turnovers are almost never the ‘damnit Jake/Cam!’ brand we have been accustomed to. They are ALWAYS due to his size/strength limitations.  Strip sacks that shouldn’t be. Picks that happened because he just don’t got that NFL arm. He is still prone to panicking and the wheels can and do fall off at a much higher rate than his peers.  The team is winning on the backs of the defense, running game and special teams… but they’re winning, and unbelievably 1 game behind Tampa. As long as this is happening and Bryce doesn’t go full meltdown, Dave is going to keep him in. He is not getting pulled. 
    • This was a terrible podcast. A bunch of uninformed homers that had worse takes than the bottom 10% of the Huddle. I listened to a handful of podcasts this past offseason in search of new Panthers material since John Ellis doesn't do his pod anymore and The 4 Man Rush don't either. Immediately deleted it after the handful I listened to. Truly terrible.
    • The NFC South was so bad it sent a team with a losing record to the Playoffs that year. Wilks had players playing hard at the end but let’s not act like that was a good season. That season hurts even more now that we see in hindsight how good our QB situation was. We just didn’t know it.
