Be very careful...

I'm almost 2 hours late, but I felt it necessary to say this.


Be very careful from now until the game. Whatever you have done these past few weeks, keep doing it. Don't stray from your rituals. Don't put on that new Kuechly jersey you got if you've been wearing a different one this season. Don't watch the game on the couch when you damn well know you've been in the recliner all season.


And since we're here, what are some of your rituals for game day? What do you do to give us mojo?


Me personally, it changes each season it seems. This season, I've been wearing the same Panthers t-shirt and pair of jeans. I eat lunch precisely 30 minutes before kickoff (will be dinner tonight) and I put a dip in seconds before kickoff. That dip stays in the whole first half. I add on one time (the commercial break between the 1st and 2nd quarter). I take it out right at halftime, drink something, and put another dip in before the second half starts. My rules for the first half are the same for the 2nd.


All of these seem very minor, but the games I didn't wear the shirt, we've lost. The times I haven't had a dip in, we've struggled (and, on the other side, once one goes in, we're good to go). This one was reinforced for me when we played the 9ers. So, I'm sticking with it. I'm willing to get cancer if it means a Super Bowl run.

I have obsessive compulsive disorder so it's pretty normal for me. During the pre-game I run around the couch 8-12 times depending on how iffy the game is. As always I have to flip the remote around until I find a winning side. I remember the last time I didn't find a winning side like it was 57 days, 4 hours and 13 minutes ago. Once we score I flip the light switch on and off for the exact amount of points we have. But, everyone does that right?

 

 

ARE THE CHIPS IN FUCING ORDER?

      shough vs tmac off rookie of the year

      By MasterAwesome · Posted

      Ok fair to judge only his starts.  But you do acknowledge that going from "he's waaaay above league average in a number of categories" to "here's a single stat where he's above league average (not "waaaay") and another where he is exactly at the league average" is a pretty significant backpedal, no?  I'm guessing he's probably in the ~10th range for completion percentage too if we're only looking at starts (I'm too lazy to isolate his starts and do the calculations), so I'll grant you that one too.  But I don't think completion percentage is all that meaningful as a standalone stat if it isn't bolstered by good TD%, Y/A, etc. On that note, for how much people like posting Passing Charts in here (*cough* CRA) - if you peep Shough's passing charts, he hasn't completed a single 20+ yard pass in the past 3 games combined.  His last one was in Week 13 against the Dolphins, which was a single pass of 24 yards.  I just want to be consistent in how we apply our standards - I think it's always been warranted to criticize Bryce for it (even dating back to his rookie season), but do we suddenly not care about that with Shough? And yeah I did acknowledge that Saints' fans have reason to be excited about him and complimented his poise, which is giving my props.  Still not sure I agree that he looks better than a "ton" of QBs nor do I think you or anyone have really demonstrated that.  I think you are generally one of the more reasonable level-headed posters which is why I'm confused at what I consider to be rather hyperbolic language about Shough.

      The Case for(or Against) Drafting/Signing a TE

      I don't disagree with you, but want to point out that Tremble's strong suit has always been blocking. Case and point: on Horn's 25 yard run, he lays down not 1 but 2 nice blocks...and is looking for #3! https://www.panthers.com/video/jimmy-horn-jr-s-25-yard-run-gives-panthers-red-zone-access-on-first-drive

      It is a popularity contest.  The selection does have meaning though. It is also 1 of the criteria that is considered for the HOF. The game does not have any significance. The team hasn't been to the playoffs in nearly a decade. That's why they don't get primetime national coverage. To the victors go the spoils.
