"Nice Jacket"

So I was out on the town today. Wearing the same Panthers jacket I've had for the past 4 years. I wear it every day in the Fall/Winter. It's starting to get old and ratty and I asked my family for a new one for Christmas.

 

So I walk into Best Buy and I have three different employees comment "nice jacket". You would think I was wearing a Members Only Jacket. So I'm thinking to myself "self, did these guys learn a new marketing tactic from corporate". Did they do market research that determined 30% of customers respond favorably to compliments? So I got on with my day, hit the DRs office, same thing, secretary tells me I have a nice jacket. I hit the Sears...."nice jacket, can't wait for Sunday". All in all I think I racked up like 6 compliments for an old dingy Panthers jacket.

 

Is this what it's like to win in the NFL? Are Beers colder? Skies bluer? Jackets nicer? It's been so long since the common fan has wanted to admit they watch the Panthers but that has changed for at least this season. I for one welcome my fair weather fans to engage in Panther discourse.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      I mean I just don't understand the argument. Baker and Sam both have been pro bowl QBs post their time here. And you just said yourself that is due to him having a damn good roster around him and they are well coached. You're even saying the bad baker is still there somewhere, but he is in a good organization with good roster and coaching that they are getting the best out of him. Why does Baker and Sam get all that benefit of the doubt but when it comes to Bryce it must be a BY9 problem, not an org or team problem?  Hell I got a guy below you arguing with me that Chark/Hurst/Mingo sucked because Bryce wouldn't throw them open. It's ridiculous how far the stretch goes.

      Correct.  It’s really hard to get open in the NFL when opposing defenses gameplan and cheat coverage/routes on all your players because they know your QB can’t make certain throws/plays.   magically no one that comes to Carolina can get open or make plays with the ball in their hands…..it’s like there is one singular common dominator to it all.  BY makes playing defense way too easy.   NFL players are too good to allow one side to cheat coverage and not respect all the potential threats of a route  so you can dial up a great play.  But if corners and safeties just cheat coverage and know X and Y happening on route/threats….getting open gets hard when they just play it one way.  Getting open has a lot to do with the different threats a WR can pose on a given play.

      Kinda depends how you look at it both were 3rd round draft pics.  Nico was nothing before stroud and tank came in with stroud.  If both were on the panthers would young have them doing well and starting or would their stats be low.  I really dont know the answer to that.  None of the panthers wrs have left and did well either but personally i feel neither of nico or tank would do much on the panthers.
