Small deviation from true Panther fan discussion


SIGCHI222

Recommended Posts

Got home this evening and at the dinner table told the son and the wife that Gettleman was now in the Panther family and how happy I was.

The wife says, "Oh, great, now there is another jersey you will want to buy!"

I didn't say anything and took another bite of Mexican meatloaf with my head lowered looking at my plate and smiling.

Today was a good day.

We win the Super Bowl next year, you damn skippy I'll buy a Gettleman jersey. I'll force the NFL to make one.

I will be at Wofford in 2014, taking pictures with Catman and looking for you in my Gettleman jersey if that happens.

And my wife will still be saying, "So is this where the Panthers play? Seems smaller than on TV."

I have a personalized jersey with my last name and my old high school number on it. A few years back, I was wearing it while watching a game with a group of friends. One, who I hadn't known quite as long but had been around for at least six months or so, stared at the back of my jersey for a minute or so before saying to me "I'm not familiar with that player. What position does he play?" :blink:

    • DeAngelo Williams: 1515 yards (2008) Steven Davis: 1444 yards (2003) Christian McCaffrey: 1387 yards (2019) Chuba Hubbard: 1195 yards (2024) Jonathan Stewart: 1133 yards (2009)   DeAngelo Williams 1515 yards in 2008 are most in Panthers history for a season this was when Double Trouble was at it's height. That year he averaged 94 yards a game. Steven Davis missed 2 games 2003 so he comes in at the most yards per game in a season at 103 yards. Mccaffrey averaged 86 yards a game in his 2019 campaign he also recorded 1005 yards receiving making his season statistically the best in Panthers history for a RB, had the Panthers had a better record he could have been a favorite for MVP. Dowdle currently is averaging 81 yards a game despite only starting 3 games thus far. In the games he has started 206, 183, 130 he's averaging 173 yards. In Green Bay he rushed for 130 despite having a 21 yard run wiped out due to illegal procedure penalty that could of saw a 150 yard day.    Top 5 yards per carry. Dowdle 5:6 (2025) Williams: 5.5 (2008) Stewart: 5.1 (2009) Mccaffrey: 4.8 (2019) Hubbard: 4.7 (2024) If Dowdle continues even close to the pace he's on he's poised to break DeAngelo Williams single season Panther rushing record.       
    • The BY9 situation is classic sunk cost fallacy. We traded premium assets to get him. Every few games he flashes the traits that made him appealing (quick reads, touch, composure) but the macro picture doesnt lie. Hes producing at a bottom-tier level across efficiency metrics in yards per attempt, EPA/play, completion percentage over expected, and explosive plays. Instead of objectively reassessing, the organization continues to justify the investment - new coaches, new systems, new excuses - trying to salvage what was invested. Giving him a 5th year is a self inflicted would.  We need to take our lumps and move on
