If we beat the Seahawks week one, will the talking heads around the NFL jump on the Panthers nuts or continue to overlook us?

Obviously you take the opinions of idiots like Steven A., Skip Bayless, and Colin Cowherd with a grain of salt, but with all those guys talking so highly about Seattle, if we beat them week 1, will people be talking about the fact that the Panthers WON or will they talk more about Seattle LOSING?

seattle losing would be the biggest story, but it won't be much. excuses will be given.

 

people won't pay attention to the panthers until they are have at least 3 more wins than losses.

 

no one has any reason to pay attention to the panthers until they have won several more games than they've lost. winning one game against any team won't matter. winning several early instead of losing several will.

If we beat Seattle the only way they talk about the Panthers is if we really beat them by a lot and were in complete control of the game. That is the only way they will talk about us on both network, well check that if Cam has a bad game they will talk about us on both networks and never people hear the end of it.

Do we really care what the talking heads say? I for one don't give a damn as long as we win.

No, not really. It would however be f*cking nice to turn on ESPN or NFLN and not have to hear about the same 5 teams and the same sh*t, day after day, week after week.

      shough vs tmac off rookie of the year

      By MasterAwesome · Posted

      Ok fair to judge only his starts.  But you do acknowledge that going from "he's waaaay above league average in a number of categories" to "here's a single stat where he's above league average (not "waaaay") and another where he is exactly at the league average" is a pretty significant backpedal, no?  I'm guessing he's probably in the ~10th range for completion percentage too if we're only looking at starts (I'm too lazy to isolate his starts and do the calculations), so I'll grant you that one too.  But I don't think completion percentage is all that meaningful as a standalone stat if it isn't bolstered by good TD%, Y/A, etc. On that note, for how much people like posting Passing Charts in here (*cough* CRA) - if you peep Shough's passing charts, he hasn't completed a single 20+ yard pass in the past 3 games combined.  His last one was in Week 13 against the Dolphins, which was a single pass of 24 yards.  I just want to be consistent in how we apply our standards - I think it's always been warranted to criticize Bryce for it (even dating back to his rookie season), but do we suddenly not care about that with Shough? And yeah I did acknowledge that Saints' fans have reason to be excited about him and complimented his poise, which is giving my props.  Still not sure I agree that he looks better than a "ton" of QBs nor do I think you or anyone have really demonstrated that.  I think you are generally one of the more reasonable level-headed posters which is why I'm confused at what I consider to be rather hyperbolic language about Shough.

      The Case for(or Against) Drafting/Signing a TE

      I don't disagree with you, but want to point out that Tremble's strong suit has always been blocking. Case and point: on Horn's 25 yard run, he lays down not 1 but 2 nice blocks...and is looking for #3! https://www.panthers.com/video/jimmy-horn-jr-s-25-yard-run-gives-panthers-red-zone-access-on-first-drive

      It is a popularity contest.  The selection does have meaning though. It is also 1 of the criteria that is considered for the HOF. The game does not have any significance. The team hasn't been to the playoffs in nearly a decade. That's why they don't get primetime national coverage. To the victors go the spoils.
