I feel terrible for Penaut and Allen

[PanthersClinic]

No need to feel bad for them. People don't realize how difficult it is to even make it to a Super Bowl. Just being on that stage is a huge accomplishment. 15-1 is even rarer.

Everything hurts after a loss but this is the best season in franchise history, it's not a cinderella story that's once in a lifetime. Kuechly and Cam are two of the best at their position in the league, they're young and under contract.

The pieces are in place. Denver was where we are just two years ago. Gettleman and Richardson have made tough decisions to get us to this point. We're so close. This is not the end, this is the beginning. Also Manning and Brady will both be out of the league in the next 3-4 years. After that it's a heavily NFC favored league and we're right there with Seattle.

It just wasn't our time but it will be. LeBRon had to lose a couple NBA finals, MJ had to an ECF , Elway had to lose a Super Bowl. It wasn't our time. It will be our time.

 

The team comes before the players. Without releasing guys like Smith and Williams and Hardy, who knows if we ever make it here. Tough decisions, cap focus, and constant improvement in all facets day-in and day-out.

 

Keep pounding.

Money isn't everything. Putting everything you have into your work and not having it pay off would be disappointing no matter what it is you're doing, getting paid or not. NFL or construction or banking or starting a small business, whatever.

 

I would've included TD but he's got a couple more years here for sure, whereas Peanut and Allen's future is completely up in the air.

Meh, whatever. I get that they love the game and work hard, but I don't feel sorry for them.

No matter how you feel, Cam feels worse.

Take some time away from football, congratulate a Broncos fan if you see one, and let go of the negativity.
