Atlanta. Forever. 

I was at a Foo Fighters concert and Grohl mentioned they had just come from Atlanta. In unison the entire crowd loudly booed. He asked why we did that and the crowd again loudly booed. It's a Charlotte thing.

As for the Saints, it's more a Sean Payton thing than the team.

To me personally, the Falcons just down the road in Atlanta are our biggest rivals. I have often traveled to Atlanta for the Panthers vs Falcons games and come away with a feeling of sadness and remorse.

Please watch the video and notice how unselfishly Cam, gives up his body attempting to make a first down.

Division rivals. We don't play anybody else enough for there to be a significant rivalry outside of the Division. 

Atlanta straight up owns us in the wins/loses column. 

The Saints have always been a thron since Brees. 

The Bucs have won 2 championships, yet they are one of the most inconsistent teams in out division. 

So for me, it's Always going.to be Atlanta and whomever the divisional champion is.

I still think it's Atlanta and New Orleans.  We'll need to finish second to prove ourselves this year

If I only get to pick 1, I'm going ATL, mainly because they're so close. Ironically, I've never considered TB a rival, really, because, well they suck. Looks like they showed me! This year, I'd say they're who I want to beat the most, because that would likely mean that we win the division. 

BTW, fug the Taints too.

I think to have a great rivalry you need certain players to make it a little more than a football game.   We just have had so many all around good dudes that play for us. 

maybe Horn can help with that.   Not saying Horn isn't a good dude.  But we need some trash talk.  We some edge before and after the whistle.

I’ve noticed over the last 2 years these division rival games don’t seem to matter to Carolina. It’s all ho hum just another game. Would be nice to see a little extra against those divisional foes 

 

Free Agency killed rivalries.  Now it’s hard to develop a tradition when the guy you pulled for last season plays on the team you hate this season.

We don’t have a rival. We haven’t been competing with anyone. Apparently it’s been Rhule vs Ron. Fitterer vs Hurney. That’s all you guys talk about. 

Rhule beat Ron last year. 

Fit is finessing the draft while Hurney is looking for his lost car keys.

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      By strato · Posted

      He made some excellent throws but he always has made some excellent throws here and there. I don't know what to think, which is what I was apprehensive about. Is he going to have a decent downfield game? Because okay Legette dropped one, but someone was giving stats prior to the bye or during it where he had two downfield completions and one of them was the jump ball that is just launched and fingers are crossed that our guy comes down with it, and yesterday we saw that again. The Russell Wilson school of downfield passing.  I don't feel like that is sustainable, but at the same time you have to do Something to make the defense understand they have to defend that downfield throws. Like i said, confused.  I guess I'm going to review the game for myself and look closely at his mechanics and stuff because if he actually fixed that stuff it explains the better throws. And that has been my biggest objection, or what I see as the thing that makes or breaks his chances, that unorthodox dropback and tippy toe action and not having his feet set which limits velocity etc etc.

      Crazy stat

      By Manna · Posted

      The negative Nancy in me (or objective?) says that they had a bye week to prepare for the Chiefs. However, it’s one thing to have a good plan and it’s another to actually execute it. For all the flack he’s received (from me as well), Bryce seemingly has put his head down and worked his tail off and his play is giving me hope. The first 18-game Bryce showed no progression whatsoever. He gets benched, comes back, and has shown steady progress every week he has started. I think I’m starting to see what the Bryce lovers and unconditional defenders were saying all along, and I hope he can show that on a regular basis for the sake of our QB1 position.

      Some Thoughts on Our Remaining Games

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Yeah, we could still very well end up 4-13 with the 2nd pick.   I think LVR has the inside track for 1, with only a JAX team as a team on docket that could be beatable.
