Week 9 Cheat Sheet: Carolina cruisin'

 

I got in a heated argument with a friend this week — about the Carolina Panthers.

This friend is not a fan of any NFC South team, isn’t passionate about the league’s scheduling intricacies and isn’t someone who criticized Cam Newton for having a “fake smile” before the 2011 NFL Draft. He’s got no real dog in the fight.

But he said something that really bothered me this week. He said the same thing I’m hearing a lot of places that just drives me up a wall.

“The Panthers haven’t beaten anyone.”

Oh, I hate that. HATE. I don’t hate many things. Seriously. I don’t hate traffic. I don’t hate rainy days without the umbrella. And I don’t hate when my friends talk about “Game of Thrones” — a show I’ve never seen — all the freaking time. But I hate the “Panthers haven’t played anybody” thing.

Why? Because winning in the NFL is hard. Really hard. And when you actually go out and win games — that’s enough. The wins count the same, whether you beat the ’85 Bears or the ’08 Lions, public opinion be damned.

<---Game of thrones late bloomer. 

 

Recently watched all three seasons back to back to back 2x and now on the audio books.  

 

oh and haters gonna hate.

 

I loved like the first 3 audio books, but Martin took so long to write AFFC and ADWD that Roy Dotrice forgot how he did the voices for the characters before, and suddenly Arya and Danny turn into old lady leprechauns.

    • well, players dictating things only works if you have the right collection of players to dictate things.  and in all honesty, not sure if we can answer if we do or don't as fans given......there are no Thomas Davis types around that we know are actually about X and Y (based on years showing it).  Collective team is too new to us to know what these dudes are really about in terms of players carrying the burden of culture. 
    • Moore can be put in one of the vet spots on IR. No one will be checking for him at the start of the season. But I would be very perturbed if we tried to go all Gettlemagic and stash an obvious talent like Horn on practice squad like we did Butker. If we can get through this year, next year it will be obvious Moore and AT will be gone, starting namely with AT's contract.  
    • Culture change comes from the top down, not from drafting a 3 and no D guard. I doubt Lamelo is gonna take his cues from this 20yr old kid lol. If Brandon Miller couldn’t change the culture with how good he is and how much he hustles on both ends, Kon Knueppel sure as hell ain’t changing it. Ace Bailey by all accounts is also a great teammate and hard worker, btw, who was drafted by a team he supposedly didn’t want to go to yet he immediately bought in. And he’s got actual length and tools on both ends of the floor. I feel this pick is going to age like milk rather quickly.
