So how many of you are watching this poo at the Roaring Riot watch party in Charlotte?

After traveling with these beautiful people to Jacksonville, tailgating with them at home games, and watching everything else with the ass-kicking Winston-Salem chapter, I figured it would be downright poetic to finish the best season in franchise history with the same group. If you didn't already know, Zach has organized a badass watch party at Dilworth's Grill by the stadium (he's authorized me to make this thread, so it's not a secret or anything.) To attend you've gotta be a Roaring Riot member, but it's free NoDa beer, Miller Lite, and endless buffet all friggin night.

I'm headed down Saturday afternoon with a buddy of mine and we're gonna spend all day playing video games and drinking beer at our uptown hotel, and then watch the game with the Riot on Sunday, and then stay up til 3am or whatever to greet the team at the stadium when they come home, and then spend all day Monday recovering from what will probably be a sleepless night of drunken revelry.

Anyone else going or have similar plans?

my hotel is uptown so thankfully i can stagger from dilworth's to wherever people are going bonkers in uptown and then eventually to my hotel room

Uber is your friend.  That'd be a long stagger from DNG to Uptown bars/center city.

I plan on being there.  See y'all hoodlums then.

After a night of boozing let's call it an even 2 hour walk. Possible death.

after surviving a drunken harris teeter journey for cigars and champagne post-seattle a few weeks ago we can survive anything

    • I mean it's not even like this was his worst game of the season... I'm not done with him by any means but this feels more the norm for him than the exception:/
    • I'd give it a C mainly because of Brooks.  If we just didn't have a 2nd I'd argue B to B+ tbh. Brooks was a bad gamble, tho one that could still pay off long term. Yes XL only has 400 yards but... Look who is throwing him the ball. And I think he isn't a "true #1" but he's been able to consistently get open. Hands definitely need to be cleaned up.  But he should end the year with 500-600 yards. Like you said - Sanders looks great.  Get him a better QB / more time with a QB and I think he's gonna impress. We added a couple rotational players on D that have both made plays and show promise for the future from later rounds. So I'd say, Brooks really hurts this drafts grade. It'll be interesting to see how it progresses over the next 3 years. I've overall really liked Morgan's FA acquisitions, so...
    • Oh he would absolutely flourish. It’s the panthers way. It’s no different with coaches. Sometimes they reach their expiration date, go somewhere else, and find new success.  Similarly to Burns, how long to wait for the light to finally turn on?  Market forces will demand a salary that the panthers can not responsibly match. Sliding him to guard will fit his skill set better, but he has played LT for 3 years. He will receive offers from other teams wanting to pay him LT money.  At guard, he won’t start with what they have paid Hunt and Lewis. Center then?? Dunno. Maybe? He will become a backup by default once they draft their stud LT. I doubt Dan just stands pat. That’s not his MO.  So where does this put him? Can you match what other teams will offer for a backup LT/guard? Do you dish out franchise LT $ on a guy who still needs significant improvement in pass protection. This team will be DOA in the playoffs with the very first team who has a formidable speed rusher. What if he has hit his ceiling in pass protection already and they sign him long term? It’s a big gamble either way.
