How quickly will our bandwagon fill up?

Recommended Posts

the more bandwagony/fairweather panthers fans have been subjected to five years of utter disappointment. it'll take a few wins to melt the ice and prove that we're not the same old heartbreaking panthers. for some a 2-0 start will do it, and if we beat the giants after that i think you'll see the national media wake up and start taking serious notice. at that point people will start jumping on the wagon en masse.

 

if it looks like we're going to make the playoffs, panthers nation will be in full force.

It depends on the wins.

 

If we demolish the Seahawks the bandwagon will start to get a little heavy.  If we win the first two with a convincing performance from one side of the ball and only a passable one from the other, but the games are not close, then two will work.  Winning 3 in a row regardless will land a ton of people flooding in and a whole lot of new posters spamming existing threads so they can make their own new threads about how they've been fans since the beginning!

    • It's not impossible to go from worst to first.  We kept Evero because anyone in there right mind knew our defense was destroyed by injuries, not the scheme.  Evero has been given a plethora of talent between free agency and the draft, not to mention getting DB back. I fully expect our defense to be very good.  I have no reason to think Jones would say something like that unless he truly felt like that.   
    • We would’ve played Florida and lost in the 1st instead of the 3rd round.  Montreal would have been the 8 seed.
    • I can't get behind a purely subjective re-draft as a method of defining "top-10 QB" status. That invites bias based on vibes/hypotheticals and can ignore actual on-field performance. You and others have said that Bryce has to be a top-10 QB to justify the pick. That's a high bar, which I'm not against, but we need a clear, consistent way to measure it. When I bring up metrics that Bryce has registered in the top-10 in like BTT%, P2S ratio, catchable deep ball rate, etc... they're waved off as either irrelevant or the expected baseline performance. Meanwhile, volume stats like passing yards or win-loss records, both of which depend heavily on roster talent, health, and coaching, are treated as definitive. That's where the inconsistency kicks in. If no performance metric ever counts in his favor and the answer is always going to be "he should be doing that," then we're not evaluating him... we're just holding him to a curve he can't win against. If this is really about performance standards, then let's define them. But if it's just about confirming prior takes based on height and weight, then let's call it what is it and stop pretending that this is a football analysis discussion.
