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?

    • I've shown you numerous comps for other tackles in the same age and talent range.  His contract, taking into account his age, health, etc.  is the going rate.  It's a fair deal. I've shown you examples of how long it usually takes to find even an average replacement.  Hell, look at every tackle that has ever started for the Panthers.  How many would you consider a success?  They are not easy to find. After everything we've done with this team since drafting Bryce why would we decide to let our best linemen go and add a huge question mark at tackle?   FA is a crapshoot in which any guy available will have cons/issues.  If not, they'll cost a fortune.   Outside of a first or maybe 2nd round pic next year it'll take a few years for a tackle to learn the position at the NFL level.  There are still questions about Icky. Every vet NFL player deals with maintenance.  Between the contract value and history I'm not overly worried about his knee.  I contend his knee issue isn't anything to be overly worried about.  It's not zero risk but it's an acceptable risk.  Every player we draft and every contract we sign has risk.  You're blowing up his own negative words about his knees and ignoring him saying he is healthy and the knee is a non issue.  You have a strong chicken little complex with this team.  Being he has always been a Panther they are very aware of any health issues. We paid now because now is cheaper.  If his knee was really an issue they would have waited.  That tells me it's not the issue you want it to be.
