MMQB: Expect Panthers to take Substantial Step Back

[bleys]

It's SI.com. I don't think I'm "loading them up with hits." It's one of the big 4 sports websites, it's getting hits regardless.

 

in fact, you are giving them extra hits ...  despite it being si.com, espn.com, whoever...

 

 

it's the principle of the matter..

Panic! riot! rebel!!

He also said we were going to finish dead last in the NFC last year... Face it, he is a former CNN reporter who happened to enjoy football. So he now writes outlandish things for people to remember his name by... Job well done, but he is still a prick.

blah.blah..blah.. really..what??.. uhh.. I do not hear u!! Ur sources suck!!

We are the perfect pick.

 

1. If we struggle, you are right.

2. If we don´t struggle, you can blame it all on the "improvement" of Cam or Cam's "improved leadership" all while Cam is putting up the same numbers as the last two year (same thing as the by national media invented "sophomore slump" they claim Cam had while actually improving in his second year). 

 

Either way, you can argue that you are right so win win...

Doesn't even bother anymore. We have the chance to prove the doubters wrong starting in 9 days and I think we will.

In that same vein, I'm also amused how criticism of Cam from the usual suspects like SI has gone from to dreaded towel wearing on a head now that people don't buy into that nonsense anymore to less quantifiable, more pseudo-kntelligent criticisms that the average fan wouldn't be able to dissect, regardless of how nonsensical and outright idiotic the criticisms are.

It brings new meaning to the "haters gonna hate" saying. Oh well. It's a yearly offseason thing and they'll go back to their rathole to hide once again following week 1.

I am really tired of hearing that the D has to play BETTER for us to reach playoffs. OUR OFFENSE WAS NOT THAT GREAT!!! It really wasnt as bad as most say; but its not like we were Denver and just lost Thomas, Welker, and Decker. Our offense needs to catch the ball and improve in the redzone and we will return to playoffs. IMO

I haven't even read this, but I probably don't need to. Just another copy and paste. The all knowing media just giving us their "expert opinion" and one that follows the "company line" .

[Semaj]

And one more thing. What in the ell does Andy Benoit know about quarterbacking? And if cam had all these weaknesses why is his numbers in line and almost identical to the Golden calf of Indianapolis?

[davos]

This kid is a 27 y/o online journalist from Iowa who is basically King's understudy. Meh.

[Semaj]

You know what's funny? Andy Benoit said the same poo last year. How did that work out for you Andy? http://mmqb.si.com/2013/08/19/carolina-panthers-2013-preview/

[frash.exe]

so then in what world does it make sense to link shitty material on this board?

Because we need to exercise our requirement to shake our fists and angrily mash our keyboard to type out incendiary remarks that these writers are never going to read, while lamenting that we never get enough respect to prove our fandom/optimism

[Darth Biscuit]

fwiw bleys is right, and no I never click on si links, esp shitty King articles.  That guy can suck a donkey hole.
