So let's say that JR decides to either sell the team or pick it up and move it across the country - let's say to LA or some other reasonable NFL-desirable city.

 

At some point in the future afterwards, the NFL awards another franchise to Charlotte.

 

Do you...

  • Remain a fan of the original Panthers, regardless of where they relocate to?
  • Switch allegiances to the new Charlotte-based team, because they're in Charlotte?

If the Panthers leave Charlotte, I'm done with the NFL.  I officially switched my affiliation from the Saints to the Panthers in 2005 because of fat Tom Benson threatening to leave Louisiana in the wake of Hurricane Katrina (I had been generally following the panthers since 2003 when Jake Delhomme was given a chance to start, but wasn't a die hard until that fat excuse for a human being pulled that BS).  I'll likely still pull for the Panthers, but I really think at that point, I'd be officially done with the NFL.

    • It's not even a particularly nuanced opinion, yet it seems out of reach for so many.
    • I don’t think he can be great. For me he tops out as starter maybe make the playoffs, stuff like that. I would have been okay with that kind of player as a placeholder but you don’t invest the time and assets we did and be happy with that.  On the cure,If a guy has mechanical flaws but otherwise is enticing, you let someone else make the mistake of taking him in the top of the 1st. If he doesn’t get taken you can pick him up 2nd or 3rd day and try to develop him (off the bench not starting).  The risk/reward with Bryce was horribly misjudged. I didn’t want to trade like that in the first place because I didn’t see the generation talent that justifies that type of move, but once it was done CJ was the better gamble. No doubt. 
    • That's what I mean. If you claim to possess some super knowledge about the QB position from a previous non-football but football related job, wouldn't you want to expound upon that to support this "everyone doesn't know anything about being a QB" thesis? The rest is just summed up by stating that there are a lot of variables to a QB being successful. Yeah....I mean that isn't earth shattering.  While there is certainly a lot of luck involved in all manners of success, consistent success with the variables around you also changing on a regular basis is usually fairly conclusive.  Is Trent Dilfer the same as Tom Brady? Is Nick Foles the same as Patrick Mahomes? I supposed based on the OP's arguments, they are. That's not really the way it turned out, however.  The NFL isn't unlike most other jobs or even other sports. The cream typically does rise to the top on a more consistent basis. Is it accidental that premier poker players seem to win or perform very well on a consistent basis, give that any individual hand is largely luck?
