Nothing ruins a win like reading The Huddle

i stopped caring about others’ opinions after the endless positive feedback thought patterns on constant display here.

our new owner is more forward-thinking than anything we’ve ever seen from this organization and that’s all that matters to me. everything will be straightened out in the long term to give the panthers the best chance to succeed.

I remember when we won that game in Seattle with that late Olsen TD and this place was going wild. Now we have a similar win against a very good team to go to 4-2 and the place just wants to complain about things we did wrong. I miss the atmosphere after a win this place had a few years ago.

then leave. the rest of us have seen this show before and know how this season is gonna end.

I'm sticking around to see how it plays out, the Panthers will be exciting this year. If your heart's not in it, or up to it, then why keep tuning in?

Too many folks around here just want to be the turd in the punchbowl after a pretty miraculous come from behind win.

Misery when a team is losing is understandable. Misery while you're winning and still very, very competitive is just pathetic.

It's never going to be perfect. It isn't Madden. It isn't fantasy football or Draft Kings. It's not the SEC playing division III Guilford College. And we aren't always going to cover the point spread.

Just enjoy a win once in a while, would you? 

Here's the thing, though. Don't confuse "concern" with "misery".

I enjoyed the win yesterday as much as anybody, but when it comes to the challenges down the road, there are still things about this team that worry me. And yesterday didn't do a whole lot to calm those concerns.

If you think about it, you'll see this a lot in coaches. How common is it to hear a coach in a presser say "yeah we won, but...". This isn't much different.

Think of it like a game. Some of us don't stop feeling edgy till the clock hits zero. In the same way, many people won't stop worrying about what's going to happen with the season until it's over and we know the result.

Doesn't mean they're miserable. That's just how some of us think.

Even during that, people like Proudiddy were complaining constantly.

That season was a blast. My only complaint about that season as a whole is that I think the Panthers got to living it up and believing the hype too much and karma came back to bite us big time in the end. 

This year, I think a lot of those same guys are going to go through this earning every single win, no cake walks and they'll be a tough team to beat in the cold months of December and January.

You'll be trying to stifle a smile before the end of the season, like a surly teen caught actually enjoying something.
