Panthers = Pretenders

according to this guy, everyone but the Dallas Cowboys are pretenders.

This stuff is pathetic, he picks the Cowboys over Tampa, Carolina, and Atlanta as the true contenders.

[The NFL Shield At Midfield]

The Cowboys are facing all kinds of elimination over the next few weeks, but the mainstream media would love for them to go on a miracle run and win the Super Bowl. That way their attempts to pump up Romo and make it look like he's not the pretty boy choke artist that he is would be somewhat justified.

Cowboys haven't won a playoff game in 12 years(96).

[neverlosethefeeling]

hahaha!

WOW!

This guy is just about motivation for the Bucs & Panthers. His team will be sitting home.

Tampa Bay Bucs

Record: 9-3

Wouldn’t be something to see the Bucs at home for the Super Bowl? Won’t happen. Defensively, they’re a wet blanket, allowing an NFC best 16.7 points per game. But every time they leave Florida to play a decent team, they lose. They also lost at New Orleans, at Denver and at Dallas to a Brad Johnson-quarterbacked team. They cannot, and will not, catch lightning in a bottle and beat the Giants on the road in the NFC Championship. If they can win at Carolina and Tampa in the next two weeks, I’ll change my tune. Until then? Frauds.

Verdict: Pretenders

They got down to the Lions (??!!) 17-0. Another bunch of NFC South homebodies who shrink when they have to leave the confines of home.

That game was played at home?

That guy is a f*cking idiot.

Hopefully the Cowgirls get voted to be the biggest NFC pretender

Sadly, I guarantee you that the NFL feels the same way. They don't want to see the Panthers anywhere near the Super Bowl, if they can have Dallas instead.

Hell, a Cowboys vs Steelers Super Bowl would be a wet dream come true for ESPN and the NFL.

Fu*k em all..

And then winning at Lambeau.

Won't claim to know much about the guy (Tom Curran) but he sounds like a dolt.

[navypantherfan]

Even the popular media has to give the Panthers some props for winning at Lambeau. I haven't seen any but they should given the Lambeau Legend (hard to win there).

[pantherfan10]

this guy has no idea wtf hes talking about, i mean we have lost some games on the road but to teams that are contenders in thier conferences, but the panthers are still gonna win the nfc south. and like some of you said we have a few good road wins like lambeau.

[panthersphan]

Cowboys haven't won a playoff game in 12 years(96).

And who was the team that beat them???

Haven't won since they played us!! Beat them twice!!

[bigdog10]

wow...that is sickening.

all 3 nfc south teams labled pretenders...

I'm not much of a pro-NFC South guy, but this almost makes me want to cheer on the nfc south in the playoffs if the panthers get eliminated

This gave me an Idea. Start having the Pretenderbowl. Chargers v Cowboys.

Sadly, I guarantee you that the NFL feels the same way. They don't want to see the Panthers anywhere near the Super Bowl, if they can have Dallas instead.

NBC too, they would finally have people watching their preshow.
