Under-Educated Fans Near You ?

Recommended Posts

Sitting in my office.

I hear the following..

Panthers weren't supposed to have a MNF game, but the NFL changed it and gave them the Tampa game. or some such...

THEN!

They are so good now the NFL want's to show them as much as possible, so they moved the Denver game to 4, more people watch the 4 game.

THEN!

That nfl schedule move thing ...ya...they did that, so they will have another MNF game. Could have miss-understood

I will have to go help them out in a sec.

Great dude talkin about it, just not as diehard as I would prefer :cool:

I usually keep my mouth shut - unless it's a man doing the talking. Then I relish putting them in their place. On this board, I don't do as much football talking as I did when I first joined because I've made too many friends on the board and prefer to keep up with them. So I mainly read.

That is not the case at home and I tend to pound the men in the ground. It's fun.

Yes, like the dumbass that works in my office that came in on Wednesday morning holding the sports page that said "Smash and Dash" on the front page and says... "hey, did you hear they're calling the Panthers running backs Smash and Dash?"

My response, "only about a million times..." and he walked away with his head down. Trust me, he deserves it.

I can only imagine.

% wise they have more undereducated fans than we do I would think.

80% of them see star and follow it like a moth follows a light

There is a simple way to find out if you have a good, knowledgeable Cowboy fan or the majority.

Ask their opinion on two people. Jerry Jones and Tom Landry.

If they say "Say what you will about Jones, but he gets the talent!" you've got your typical dumbass.

If they say anything like "fug Jerry Jones" or "Jerry Jones is a mouth breathing mongoloid" you've probably got a good one.

If they say "I'll never forgive Jones for what he did to Landry and I can barely watch the team now" you've got someone you can sit down and talk ball with.

This happens all the time at my work. I had one of my coworkers that watched the SD game with me(our first game watched together). I had no idea how he would act.

--- he left when we lost the lead in the 4th and dismissed our season.

LMAO

needless to say I think he is bad luck now and will refuse to watch a game with him. Atleast I have an excuse now.

    • Agreed on the last part. They can’t afford to lose all these games with Martin and Perets. 
    • Yes.  And this converts directly to confidence.  Does the coach have confidence to call a deep dig or seam route?  Does Bryce have confidence in his ability to be the Alpha?  Do his teammates have confidence.  About film--when I see Cam Newton's pre-snap confidence vs. Bryce's, it is night and day.   Film--tells you if the WRs are open (why l love watching the Replay telecasts from the end zone cameras--you can see it.  I have seen 2 WRs open and Bryce's eyes are on the outlet WR or the pass rush. )  You can see progressions, and he has improved a bit--but he is very quick to rush through 1 and 2 and checkdown--that is a lack of confidence in his ability to read the defense.  I had a former NFL TE (Deems Maye) who played QB in high school (not sure about college) tell me that the best QBs read the defense by knowing where everyone will be when the ball is to arrive--not where they are.  I think his QB at the time was Humphries.  He said that Humphries would throw the ball into coverage before the cuts etc.  because he understood DB momentum, zone areas, etc.  and he could just see it.  Said so when people say nobody was open, they are usually right because nobody should be "open" when the QB has the ball--when the ball arrives, everyone should be open.  He said Humphries was never "great" but his skills were limited--from a small school--but his ability to read a defense made him never give up on a route.
