Does anyone else have an uneasy feeling about tonight?

All the attention...we're playing well..chance to go above .500 under Rivera. Why should we believe Rivera and Co. will not blow this game? I mean, I love the Panthers 'till I die but I'm purely going off of instinct and past experience on this one.

 

Everyone knows the definition of insanity: "Doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting a different result". That has been the Panthers, with a few exceptions, since the NEWton rivERA started...and I'm just not confident.

 

I'm not claiming we're going to lose. But I guess what I'm saying is that I still do not trust this team, and I don't like the unnecessary confidence. We don't deserve to be confident yet at .500. We have seen this team blow 2 games against worse teams than us, 1 of which by almost 20 points.

 

This game is not going to be easy...and I just feel kind of uneasy about this. Maybe I'm overrating how good Tampa could come out and play.

I also do not think that if we win this game it will be proof that we are over the hump. This is a true trap game. It will either do nothing OR hurt us.

 

We win: "Oh great, you beat an 0-7 team"

We lose: Well, you know what comes after that. "Can Cam lead" "Rivera expected to be fired" "Panthers most inconsistent team in the league"

 

This game sucks.

    • I think we have some revisionist around it here because of all the drama around Tepper's involvement. If you pull up any scouting report from the time you'll see the same take. WalterFootball's report sums up the media's thoughts on him well: "Young has everything the NFL is looking for in a quarterback except in terms of weight and height." He was the consensus top QB of his draft and the only real question mark they had about him was whether his body could hold up in the NFL. The infamous Steph Curry comparison the Panthers latched onto came from Albert Breer. The excuses I've heard for him are more anecdotal. Bryce Young's development is the only bullet point most NFL fans have on the Panthers right now. That and the coaching turnover. If you're not actually watching our games it's easy to believe this is just a dysfunctional organization that doesn't know how to unleash this talented Heisman winner.  I've seen media and fans alike run with that narrative way more than criticizing Young outright. Whenever we win there's flocks who use it as proof that the Panthers just need to be patient.  
    • So maybe 1-3 vs playoff teams, going by standings as of today. I guess that is an improvement.  We are just about improved enough to be in purgatory draft wise. It really isn’t so bad in the 1st unless you really want that top QB or maybe edge guy because there are usually plenty of good players at the top but it hurts you some as get deeper in the draft.
