Oh, and to answer the dumbass question, a simple search like "McCaffrey 2017 highlights" will get you plenty.

Last season may have sucked, but there were still plenty of fun highlights (Jeremy Chinn's two quick touchdowns, for example).

I'm not gonna refrain from enjoying them (or whine like a little b-tch when someone else does) just because it was a losing season.

Chinn is a beast but we lost that game. Since the season those highlights are from the Panthers have finished third last and third again in their division in consecutive campaigns. Hopefully they aren't sitting around reminiscing over failure as much as some of our fans 🤡

Do you really think these elite athletes celebrate losing the way ya'll do? 

Uhhh, we won the game in the OP dumbass.

 So you came in with a post asking about the season.

Are you suggesting we hold our cheers until the end of the season?

Or are you suggesting that after the season is over, if it isn't a winning season, that we don't celebrate any of W's from that season?

Frank you  always seem to be looking for the L.... you know, like a troll would do.

Well, I don't tend to be a miserable little sh-t about things, so no.

Even though we lost Super Bowl 38, the highlights from it are still fun to watch. Likewise, while the 2015 season ended on an extremely sour note, there are still a lot of really fun clips from that year.

Hell, I'd even watch good highlights  from Super Bowl 50.

(I'm just not sure any actually exist)

You misunderstand my definition of failure. I do not consider a winning season to be failure. The climb is the best part even if you don't reach the ultimate goal. But if you never make the climb what is there to be happy about? It's time for this team to climb again.

If beating the Jaguars is enough for you by all means enjoy that 👍

And yet you didn't seem to be aware that 2017 was a winning season.

Heh 🤔

Are you saying we shouldn't enjoy defeating the jags?  

Are you a jags fan Frank?  Is that it?

Are you upset because we beat the jags?

Because you sound like a jag.

For a player, winning isn't everything.  Archie Manning never had a winning season, yet he was widely considered one of the greatest QB's of his generation.  Dan Marino never won a Super Bowl, but is there anyone you'd want on your team more in that era?  Barry Sanders, never won anything of note, but the dude was just ELECTRIC with the ball in his hands.  Calvin Johnson, likewise.  The list goes on.

When you speak of a franchise as a whole, becoming a winning team is important.  But when you're talking about players, greatness is separate.  CMC is a great player, regardless of our success as a franchise.

Heh 🤔

It's been discussed. Our starting qb was our leading rusher and that was a very significant factor in the team slipping into the postseason at all. This after investing a top ten pick in an offensive playmaker. Ironic that was the beginning of the end.

      They gave him franchise QB money. Sorry but if you don't earn it you can be embarrassed.   He's rich he can take it. Stop feeling sorry for people who can't live up to their contract. This isn't a sport to be soft. Daniels deserves to give back some of that money he stole if you ask me.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      And it was coming off of a bye week. Perhaps he should vacation a bit in Germany in the off season, something certainly seemed to help him there.  No, really... He showed maturation and the possibility that he's turning a corner. That wasn't the NY Giants out there, but the back to back Super Bowl champions with the #3 defense in the league, with them coming off of a prime time loss. And that was a 9-1 team we just played literally down to the last second. Bryce played so well that maybe, maybe he wins over some nay-sayers. It's still early, though, but what a nice breath of fresh air that was. You can win quite a few games if that is your normal performance. It is obvious that we are still on the learning curve, though. But that was one helluva test he just took. Some of these QBs coming out of college just don't have a lot of games under their belts, especially in top end programs. They are perhaps just a year to two years behind center in games that matter before they move up. It can take them some time to hit their stride. We can still be cautious about our future and still celebrate a great game by the kid, though, and we should. He earned the laurels today, or had before they were snatched away at the last second.
