Take it easy on the guy. We all have dealt with this heartache differently. We ALL have said fug this team in some time and fashion over the past five years. He made a mistake and a dumb thread - I think he knows that. I, personally, welcome all fans whether or not they're wagoners. I think it would be a great world if only Panthers fans existed.

I deserve to take my ridicule.  I made a bold statement.  I was fed up with this team not coming together and blamed that on our coaching staff.  After 3 years of watching Rivera "try to get it" and starting the season again the way we did, I was angry.  Angry and wrong.

 

But, I am so excited about the state of the team right now, I don't care.

 

Feels so damn good to be wrong!!!!!!!

 

You're going to take a lot of (well-deserved) grief, but winning cures all.

 

I've had my doubts with Rivera in the past, but I've also tried to differentiate between failings due to personnel (Nakamura, Norman against Buffalo) and his own mistakes. But he's shown that he cares and that he CAN grow. And that's huge; we have a coach willing to admit mistakes and try to improve.

All the people crying bandwagoner, let me ask you this. Have you watched every single Panther game, if you could, from the beginning kickoff till the end? Even during our  lowest of lows? Has there ever been a time when you're like "I'm tired of wasting my time every Sunday watching this"?

 

I know it has for me and I did that during the 2009 season and some of 2010 and a little near the end of last season. I never denounced my fanhood. Just good tired of wasting my time to watch pure sh**. This was the same for Leroy, except he was spending a lot of money and decided not to anymore.

 

Now if you answered Yes to the first 2 questions and No to the last, then good for you. You can stand on your high horse. If you answered the opposite to any of those questions, eat sh** you hypocritical prick.

BTW, the Panthers could say " hey, we are going to start playing trained possums instead of humans and see how it goes". I would still buy merchandise and would still go to as many games as I can afford.

There are only 32 cities in the entire world that are lucky enough to have a NFL franchise.

Maybe it is because some people are from Texas and other places, but when I support the Panthers I do it for many reasons not just wins and losses but for community and regional pride.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
