Do you remember the girlfriend that said "Do you think I am pretty?"...

I'm not a Panthers fan because of media coverage. Coverage will create more fans and money for the team so it's a good thing, but I just don't give a fug. Popular (NFC East, Steelers, ect) and winning teams (Denver, San Francisco, Seattle, ect) get coverage. Look how little the Chiefs are covered and they are still undefeated. Look at the early 2000's, the NFC West didn't get much coverage. If you want the media to talk about your team constantly, cheer for a popular team or a team that consistently wins. Yes our team is winning, but there are a lot of teams that are sitting 6-3. Beating the 49ers at home has garnered more coverage, and bating New England will get more. To prove this more, Falcon coverage has waned as their record gets worse. if they have several years like this one, they will get little attention. Media coverage is all about getting people to look. A playoff run will earn us more,. but I don't care. I am a Panther fan and I don't need the media to cover this team for me to care about them.

Good analogy, Kurb.

So the media doesn't bow down and kiss our collective a$$ on a regular basis... So they have doubts...So they esteem others higher than us...

Big fat hairy deal :unsure:

Win a Super Bowl and you'll get plenty of positive attention.

Become a perennial contender and you'll rightly be regarded as such.

Till then, we still haven't proven anything other than that we can win games in the regular season. Heck, the Lions can do that.

You want respect? Earn it.

I really, really, really hope that when your wife asks if she looks pretty you have a better answer than this. :lol:

Its easy to say the media doesn't matter, but they really do.

Positive national attention = more panthers fans.

more panthers fans = more ticket sales, higher paying sponsors, and merchandise sales.

All that = Ownership being more willing to invest into something heavily because of a positive ROI.

What?! Did you hear something?!!! Are we moving?!!!! ARE WE MOVING TO LA???!!!!!!!!

You can put a nice bow on your crap, but in the end it's still just a stinky piece of shit.

 

So, you're saying I'm a piece of crap!??? *hands on hips*

more panthers fans = more hits on The Huddle.

 

More hits on The Huddle = more jingle in Zod's pocket

 

Fixed it for you.....we all know you are just a greedy corporate yummy at heart....you are just scared/ashamed to admit it. :thumbsu:

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
