Want to send a real message to the front office?

Don't boycott the games. Still go and cheer for your team. But...

Do not spend a dime on concessions. No beer, no food, no shirts, nothing. Do all of your drinking at the tailgate.

Believe me, if there is a noticeable difference in the concession receipts at the next home game, drastic changes will happen.

I like your idea, but no way word gets out to enough people to make a meaningful dent in concessions revenue.

Sadly, you're right.

How about we all refuse to buy gas on Sundays, too?

Gas, unfortunately is a necessity to most. Over-hyper-inflated fatty factory foods, however, are not. Gorge yourselves at the Huddle...alas I can never join you until I'm back on the correct coast.

I know. My point is only that it's very difficult to get enough people to act corporately to make a difference. I suppose the "We want Moore" chants were as close as I've seen a unified Panthers nation. If this weren't an away game, I have a feeling we'd be hearing them in Charlotte this week.

There's our whole problem right there!! They thought everone meant "We Want More!" Delhomme turnovers. We need to change the chant to "We Want Matt!" Glad we clarified this. Matt will now be starting the 2nd half of the AZ game. Bank on it.

I would have been there just like the last AZ game but my parents were visiting from SC and it kinda made things difficult to make plans. :(

I'll just yell at my TV any way.

      Chris Long: Bryce Young Went Toe To Toe With Patrick Mahomes

      By Seltzer · Posted

      The art of playing QB is to throw the ball hard enough to get there and as soft/catchable as possible for the receiver. NFL history is littered with insanely strong-armed passers that coaches were hoping they could teach to be accurate and throw a catchable ball.  Almost all ended in failure.  Turns out it's a lot harder to teach a QB to be accurate than to have the proper technique to get enough zip on the ball to make the pass. The NFL isn't Madden. Very, very few games have a lot of opportunities for throwing the ball 40+ yards in the air unless there is a coverage bust. BY9 has been the least accurate throwing deep (vs short or intermediate), but most of his misses have been long, not short.   I would love for an actual example where Bryce couldnt get the ball there.  There are quite a few examples where BY9s mechanics were bad and the ball lacked zip bc of that. Young needs to stick to good footwork to generate the power needed for some throws. That certainly doesnt mean he cant do it, but like someone like Brees, he needs to throw the ball in rhythm and with good footwork. Young doesn't have an arm that pops like a Josh Allen or Cam, but to act like he can't put zip on the ball is insane and objectively just wrong. I'm personally pumped as hell to see BY9 develop chemistry, especially with someone like JT Sanders he can trust on jump balls. Elite QBs have to make throws from the pocket in synch with the play design, but sometimes the play breaks down and you need a guy you can trust to get a jump ball one-on-one to keep the chains moving and the defense honest. As mentioned, Delhomme somewhat made a living here throwing YOLO balls up to Smitty. I'm personally excited to see what BY9 can do the rest of the season along with the defense hopefully doing somewhat better. Given the entire body of work so far, I don't see a scenario where BY9 should be anointed the starter next season (and we need to bring in legit competition), but Young has shown enough since he came back from his benching to play the rest of the season and be back to compete for the starting job next season IMHO. I'm open to any reasonable debate about that fact.  Just like everyone else here, I want to see the Panthers win first & foremost. With or without BY9. Sunday was the first game (maybe GB last year), where Young looked like a guy worthy of the #1 pick.  I think that is objectively true, even as someone who has been more pro-Young than a lot of this board. There's a long ways to go before even committing to him as the long-term QB, but these last few weeks have shown the first real signs of promise. That should be encouraging to everyone who cares about this team.

      Is it too early to lock up Horn to a long term deal?

      The reasonable part I think will be tough. IMO, I don't really think he is going to want to resign with us. He seems to be an "emotions on his sleeve" guy that really hates losing. That's not really going to be changing much before his contract will be up. If we want to keep him around it will have to be by tagging or overpaying, IMO.
