How You Feel About Panthers Playing When They Really Want To?

[beastson]

Take the Saints, we know about their cheap shots for years even before Cam. We played like a completely different team than week 1 against the Bucs

Take Chicago, we know about Rivera going back to Chicago.... we played extremely hard and well.... all the way to the very last end

Redskins, our players mentioned how disrespected they felt when people was making the game out to be their homecoming

The Falcons, I really dont even need to explain. You ask me, some players marked that game on their calendar

Chicago is one thing, but Rivera last job was in S.D. I really would like to see which team shows up

not sure what the question is?

The panthers playing hard under certain circumstances instead of playing that way all the time

[fieryprophet]

There haven't been many stretches this year where I felt the team or players weren't competing. Sometimes they were put in a bad position or genuinely screwed up, but I have always felt the effort has been there.

I fail to see any game the players didn't play hard.

There were many where execution and penalties were an issue .

How you plan on spinning that?

I actually see where the OP is going.

The individuals on this team that are good players have baisically played well all year minus a few outings each. However, the team as a whole showed no continuity and a general disdain for the positions they were put in. It seems that the players are playing harder for each other and/or have little respect or confidence in the "gameplans" the coaching staff puts together each week.

Also, the more Cam acts like a leader onthe sidelines, the more the players respond to it, even the defense. So in effect yes, the Panthers play harder "when they want to" regardless of effort put forth week in and week out.

This is actually a good sign, get the right staff in here and instantly we become a dangerous team. (not that we arent already dangerous just not consistently)

Sounds more like your question is 'does the SD game hold personal value'........???

Idk dude, at times I feel the performance was lackluster. Yes I know the game planning is a big part, but the energy and focus like against ATL has NOT been that way all of our games

umm...i guess that i wish they wouldn't do that, then.

The same way as before, poor coaching...

Biggest bunch of "Bullsh*t" I've seen yet on the huddle.

although I might add.......................the players do get inspired by "Bulletin board" material

these players are pros.

They been playing hard.

Can't say they been playing well.

So many want to put to much blame on the coaches.

If that's your choice, so be it.

There was only 2 or 3 games were I questioned the teams effort. Sure, there's always one or two guys that have a particularly bad game but overall I think we played hard all season. We also played dumb. We lost 7 games by 1 score, 2 by multiple possessions, and won 4. As bad as the Giants game looked, what the Patriots did to the Texans (a playoff team) kind of puts it in perspective. It happens. The bigger question to me is how hard is our coaching staff working? Rather how smart are they working? My boss does not tolerate the same mistake over and over but that is what I see from some of our players.

You mind explaining that comment? Because I can see clearly the players getting frustrated by the play calls and in game management. This in itself makes continuity almost impossible. Just curious what it is that you see out there. Everything running smoothly i guess.
