i think many are forgetting this, ignoring it, or just don't think it matters.

these guys are more motivated than they've been in a long time, though.

it means more to the panthers than it does to the broncos and i could care less about fox anymore other than he's the enemy now and i want him to go down...same with peyton. i want him eating grass and begging for mercy.

Us against the world. The no respect card is usually played out but that's because it is usually the best way to motivate players. Nobody on the outside is giving the panthers a chance to beat the broncos..but they also don't really watch our games either.

Didn't our players like Fox?

they got tired of him and his message got old.

there were a few who were happy to see him go, smitty being among them.

he was a likeable guy from what i've heard, but frustrating because of how reluctant to change he was.

more than a couple players joked about "it is what it is" after he was gone.

Lots of sub plots to this match up:

Manning vs Cam

Fox vs Rivera

Manning vs JR

Fox vs JR

Defensive Line vs Manning

Manning vs DBs

Past vs Future

Chud vs Chud

One team struggling to remain relevant, the other trying to secure a playoff slot

It is what it is...

Both teams have plenty of reasons to be pumped up and ready to go Sunday.

Could be the best game we have seen in years.

You think Manning has that at the back of his mind this week? How about: "What do you know about player safety?"

Not that Manning needs more motivation, but he doesn't strike me as the type to forget being belittled by Richardson during last year's discussions during the CBA. I know that Manning is too classy to ever admit it, but I know that this has to be at the back of his mind as he comes to BOA stadium. Some can simply brush Jerry Richardson comments as political posturing, but there was a decidedly condescending tone to Richardson's comments that an intelligent man like Manning would never forget---the kind that would want Manning to stick it to the crotchety old man as Peyton airs it out on Sunday.

I had forgot all about that but yes you can bet Manning hasn't.

it almost sounds like people are looking for reasons for the broncos to beat the panthers and even want the panthers to get beat.

That's preposterous! Just recognizing all the subplots. Who on here but popcornypopper wants the Panthers to get beat?

A victory over the Broncos would go a long way for Rivera, Cam, our D-line, and our defensive backfield to start gaining the respect that we have let slip through the cracks like the victories that we should have had this year over the Bears, Cowboys and Falcons. It is a game about real legitimacy---not just moral victories.

      Fix Your Franchise: Carolina Panthers

      100% even if rest of team is really talented if they march young out to be qb and he plays like he has for 90% of his starts the panthers have already lost doesnt even matter how good the rest of the team is or isnt and also makes it hard to even tell how good they are.  They need true competition for young this offseason.

      Another renovation to BoA?

      By dave-o · Posted

      It will be awesome to have an improved stadium to lose in I guess....   https://www.yahoo.com/news/panthers-file-rezoning-bank-america-111500840.html     The Carolina Panthers have taken another necessary step toward renovating their home of the present and future. Panthers Stadium, LLC, filed its rezoning site plan with the city of Charlotte on Monday, initiating an important — if mostly technical — step toward renovating Bank of America Stadium. The filings state that the rezoning relates “primarily to technical aspects associated with improvements to Bank of America Stadium,” and that the rezoning is required because “the current stadium zoning is out of date” for the team’s stadium renovation plans.   The planned stadium updates include new seats installed throughout the upper and lower bowls; stadium safety and security enhancements; a reimagined South Lawn Pavilion; upgraded restrooms; exterior enhancements (including LED video boards) and more. Planning for the stadium renovation project will continue through 2025, with construction starting in 2026 and the renovation’s conclusion in 2029, The Observer previously reported.
