Who cares about the title...

This was just on my facebook feed from the Panthers official page:

Carolina Panthers

How would you caption this photo of Captain?

We've all seen before how rarely, if ever, does anything come out of our organization without some purpose or greater implication behind it. It doesn't matter if it's an article, a poll, a picture, or whatever... We saw it with the Hurney situation and then when Rivera was retained... All of the articles and forms of media coming out of there pointed to what was the ultimate outcome.

Then, with guys like Deangelo, where you can tell he was being dangled out there, they stay mum for the most part.

So, now, we have them posting this pic of Captain and asking fans to caption it. Do you think they'd be doing this for a guy that's getting ready to walk? I think you know the answer... And I agree, this thread sucks donkey balls. Enjoy.

the Panthers facebook newsfeed is one of the corniest, silliest outlets every. They simply posted that pic to try to get a bunch of rednecks to choke up their chewing tobacco and teenage boys to come up with un-original captions.

I agree, but as I said, all of their posts via FB, Twitter, or Panthers.com, usually act as a signal of sorts towards pending decisions on personnel/staff.

To be fair, twenty-nine other teams are also trying to think of things to talk about to help take fan minds off the fact that they aren't in the Super Bowl.

Can't complain too much.

As much as guys hated him as a starter in 2011 the equal amount should be wanting him to stay as a nickle-back as teams are always trying to find that guy.

Captain said he never played Nickle back extensively before this season and really grasped it at the end of the year learning the nuances of the extended route tree the slot guy has. Nickle is not really a no.3 cb as much as it does take a different skill set to play that position well. In the NFC south with you face Lance Moore who is a premier slot receiver, Harry Douglas who is above average and improving tremendously, Tampa not so much..in 2012 we face potentially Wes Welker as we play New England.

El Capi-tan is an essential piece to the Panther's secondary success who market value will shock and if we resign him will get some flack for the contract. I love that in the same interview with the "Mac Attack" he also said that him and Thomas Davis would have been sick if Atlanta made it to the Super Bowl bc they HATE them.. We need that Captain-fire!

    • Derrick Brown was one player I never called or even suggested was a bust . Dude was young and hadn't even hit his stride. It takes time to learn the position. The thing I appreciated about him is that he kept improving season after season. He got paid and keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny.
    • How many teams coddle their QB the way Bryce has been coddled? I have never seen any other team in the NFL EVER baby a QB the way that Bryce has been.  Bryce was named day 1 starter his first year. It was obvious he didnt deserve it. He wasnt ready as evidenced by the worst rookie year in NFL history.  So let's move to year 2. He's named starter again with no competition in TC and is benched 2 games later. We have the ghost of a backup in Dalton who is so bad he can only beat Vegas and let's remember, the only reason he lost his starting job was a car accident, not because Bryce actually beat him out in practice.  And year 3. We sign Dalton again, who already proved he couldn't be depended on to put an even remotely passable performance on the field, and bring back Jack Plummer, who was even worse than last year. It was obvious he was nothing more than a pretend body in an attempt to create an illusion of some type of attempt to find a backup.  Then we start again with garbage play again and Bryce gets benched with a phantom injury, and the ghost of the ghost of Dalton breaks his thumb on the first drive and craps the field all over again. If we had actually made an attempt to find a legitimate QB2, it's possible Bryce doesn't step on the field again. Bryce is not agood QB and if we had any other mediocre QB, our record would be the same or better.  Bryce is not entrenched. He's been placed, protected and sheltered from ever having to face a  real QB competition in TC. Richardson and Levis both were ass and both were benched and eventually replaced.  Do I expect Baker to face competition in camp? Sure. I expect Tampa to find the best QB2 they can at price that fits their cap and resources and system and get him up to speed. If he's better than Baker, and if he's better by a significant margin, that's best for the team. The ultimate goal is a Super Bowl. Bellichek was constantly getting QB2s with the GOAT as his starter. He knew the value and that was realized when Cassell led them to an 11-5 record as a backup.  You and I may think differently than the people that matter but I will say it again. If you're afraid to bring in a capable backup, especially after the debacle of last year. The starting role wasn't earned, it was given, and that's loser mentality.
    • I would have done the same thing.  LSU is a much better job than Ole Miss.  Plus the enormous contract and every advantage a college team can offer in terms of recruiting and facilities and tradition etc
