Where was everyone? Last year there were thousands of Panthers fans at the Georgia Dome, this year.. maybe a few hundred.. the turn out was pathetic! If we can't travel a few hours South on 85 we're a pathetic fan base. We should have taken over the Dome like we have in the past.. instead we were quiet, many of our fans left EARLY (I'm talking 3rd quarter) and in general we did nothing in the way of supporting OUR team. I guess all of the local Panther fans flipped to be Falcons fans. :mad:

Probably didn't want to go after getting blown out in the playoffs, going 0-4 in the pre-season, and getting raped by the Eagles.

I have gone every year for the last 8 years. If people don't think we will win, they don't show up. We don't have the large die hard fan base of some other teams(cowboys, steelers, bears). It would be the same for Atlanta if they weren't playing well. This year you will see a lot more Falcon fans and BOA than last year. Its just human nature I guess..............

I'm not buying that at all.. not with the number of people that went to the Eagles/Panthers game in week 1. We have a bunch of bandwagon fans, we think the Falcons fans are bad.. we need to look at ourselves. I was embarrassed by how well the Falcons fans watched the game yesterday at the Dome, we as fans don't know when to shut up or when to be loud when we're at BOA. All I know is I'm no longer giving Falcons fans anymore crap, they have a great team and fans.. we just need to rebuild.

I was there. I'd guess that there were probably 1,500 panthers fans. It wasn't a good turnout. I figured that some of those who already had tickets went to the game. Some of those with tickets sold them online and didn't want to make the trip after the eagles game. Couple that with the fact that some of the Panthers fans in Atanta probably didn't feel like going to scalp tickets after an embarrassing loss. I was expecting to get a lot of poo from the atlanta fans, but it wasn't bad at all.

1,500 is being generous.. but I agree the Atlanta fans are class acts.. I only ran into a couple morons, you'd expect that, even at BOA. Not all NFL fans are all there after a few beers. :P

      If there's another QB that came to the combine after packing on 15 lbs of water weight to hide his playing weight, I don't remember it.  I understand it's all part of the pre-draft game, and he participated. The FO was stupid and ignored huge red flags.  On a side note though, I was at the airport a few weeks ago and saw a basketball team going through and decided to try and look through them. I'm 6'2 and these guys were 6'6 and up. I was amazed by how much I couldn't see around them. And these guys weren't 300 plus in pads. I still think he's having a hell of a time seeing the field at the NFL speed.

      BREAKING:Panthers re-sign Chuba Hubbard

      There is merit to the points you're making here. On the flip side one could argue it took us investing 150 million in the oline for him to have a breakout season. And he has still yet to hit 1k rushing yards in a season. As far as Brooks goes the position does not require that significant of a draft investment for many other teams. That's not being negative it's just a matter of fact. The 49ers did quite well with a UDFA running back while McCaffrey was out. It is understandable that some people have concerns. That being said it boils down to whether or not you believe in the player. We just have to see what happens with him and Brooks.

      Okay, that day in Vegas had to embarrass him completely. Andy showed him how to do the job.  What I think when I go there, why did it take Andy? He has had game after game of watching actual NFL QBs work and that didn't do it?  Anyhow Andy did not mess around, he stood in there and did his job and got rid of the ball ahead of the pressure. Down the field. With the same players Bryce had. Night and day.  If that didn't wake him up nothing ever would. But I don't think he has any sort of top NFL QB in him, he just lacks the full tool kit.
