He's definitely been reading the huddle.

Yup, Sorenson took my troll thread from last week.

after 3 horrific offensive performances in a row whats not to panic about, honestly I've dropped my expectations of this team from a worse case 9-7 to me thinking we will be doing good to make 7-9.  

 

Our offense has consistently played that bad.

 

 

but at the same time our defense is looking like the monster I thought they would turn into, #monsters inc

Offense was consistantly bad in the 2011 and 2012 preseasons.....

Those are also the two greatest offensive production seasons in franchise history. All comes down to the OL. If they can be some what not crappy....we will be okay

[IGSaint]

I think our offense will be better than what people think it is.

An entire article that is written about what people should not think.  If the preseason is nothing, why play 4 games?

By that measure, "why practice"?

 

Cause, that's all Pre Season is: It's a Glorified practice, and evaluation period for coaches. 

 

They play the games in public, to whet the fans appetites, as they're doing here.

He didn't need to come to the Huddle to find freakouts in the fanbase. They've been everywhere on any outlet even remotely related to the Panthers.

They play preseason games because its another 2 games worth of revenue streams coming to the organizations.

Yup Yup. 

 

That's what I meant by "whet the fans appetite". 

 

And for those that can't/don't pay, it's gets them in a tizzy, ready for the upcoming season.
