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

      Bryce Young Work Ethic

      By strato · Posted

      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.

      Team is dangerous right now, all four lines are contributing and the speed at which the guys play at is tremendous.

      And every nfl player wannabe tries to up their draft position through things like the combine and theyre all basically lying though those drills theyve practiced hundreds of times that have little bearing on if theyre a good football player. The pro days are even worse. All you have to do is dupe 1 team. Is it right? No. But until teams put more emphasis on college tape vs. What they did in shorts with no defense it'll happen every year. I doubt there is a single player that wouldn't try anything to up their draft prospects.  Young had years of tape and that shouldve been what the decision was based on. Not a scale and throwing in shorts.  ( btw I think the combine and pro days are 90% a waste of time) Young has it financially made already. It's up to him if he wants to be a good football player too. I think the benching was the best thing that could've happened to him. It remains to be seen if it was enough
