Enough with 12-4!

Obviously the poster was being sarcastic. Was it really that hard to tell?

yes

[pstall]

The Cards winning the NFC I can stomach. The Eagles no way no how.

They had to have two teams LOSE on the last day at home I believe. Chi AND TB were fighting for a playoff spot and tank.

The Iggles are the only team that can stop Pitt.

[theadmas]

12-4 meant we were playing meaningful football at the end of the season. A heck of a year up to that last game. But ask a lions fan or a rams fan if they'd would like to trade season with you... I can guarantee they would.

Had the Panthers won, it would have meant EVERY time they reached the playoffs they have gotten to the NFC Champ game.

Spoiled? Maybe. High expectation? Yes.

Of course it would have mattered, but we didnt

WE GOT EMBARRASSED AT HOME

So that wipes it away. If the game was close and we just loss, yea. But it wasn't like that

Problems from regular season wasnt changed, went right into the playoffs, and hurt us badly

So are you saying there is such a thing as a pretty loss?

ironic.

[raleigh-panther]

You're absolutely right.

We might as well have finished 0-16 like the Detroit Lions. After all, both records point to similarly talented teams, as neither won the Super Bowl.

At least we would have the number one draft pick.

...oh, wait....

There is such a thing as a hard fought loss between two prepared teams, yes.

Some team has to lose.

I could take losing to the Giants in overtime a whole lot better than that fecal matter served on toast on Saturday night.

Maybe it was the $300 ticket price or maybe its that I let myself believe that for once, since 2004 under Fox they would not embarrass themselves on the big stage...wrong again.

[bigdog_10_2002]

without the 12-4, there is no 0-1

the panthers had a great season, and a piss poor postseason

I enjoyed every minute of it and will miss it dearly until next august

That was a ridiculous question, that I refuse to answer

[Delhommey]

You know seeing as we're on a great big blue ball hurling through space on which we have 40 or so more years of seemingly meaningless existence (if we're lucky) before we fade out to a black nothingness to be mostly forgotten by even our closest loved ones within a decade, 12-4 isn't so bad.

Well then you should not have made the first statement. You are saying in your first post that if we would have LOST better the season would have ended better. What your failing to understand is, either way, its a LOSS.

Can we quit all the crying already. THEY LOST THE GAME. A FOOTBALL GAME. FOOTBALL!!!!.

lol. nice!

Think about it this way.

We as Panthers fans got 12 weeks of joy during the season -- 14, really, because of the two bye weeks. A few days or so of extreme disappointment, but then most us will be over this. Not many teams got that many weeks to celebrate/enjoy Wins.

Everyone's going to have a disappointment at the end of their season, except one team. Some disappointments will be more extreme than others, but name me one non-SB champion that is truly happy right after the end of its season.

The offseason might be a long one because of this loss, but this was a memorable, exciting season for me that I wouldn't trade for much short of a SB appearance. So, 12-4 means something, even if it means way less than a SB does.
