To those wondering why the Panthers are getting so much attention on NFL.com all of a sudden

[hepcat]

NEWS FLASH!  The Panthers/Bucs game is airing on NFL Network.  What site is associated with NFL Network?  Oh, NFL.com.  No, the media hasn't all of a sudden taken a liking to the Panthers, NFL.COM IS PROMOTING THE GAME SO THEY CAN MAKE MORE MONEY.

 

There has been like 5 articles on the Panthers published on NFL.com in the past 4 days.  The only reason is because they are heavily promoting what would otherwise be a lackluster matchup of a .500 team and a total trainwreck sack of poo team.  Pretty tough to hype up the Bucs so they put all their eggs in the Panthers basket.

 

EDIT: for the record, I did enjoy reading most of the articles.  Especially the one by Bucky Brooks.

Yup.

Who cares.

 

Good press is good press.

So what?  They haven't deserved any press up until now.  Maybe if they start winning they will get more press but at the end of the day it doesn't help the Panthers play better.

I could say so much but I will just quietly walk away from this one.

Hey guys? You know that new coverage we been getting after our 2 win streak? ITS FAKE! Its all for the product they are promoting for Thursday night! Don't be happy about the coverage! CONTINUE TO BE SAD and ignore the press coverage!

I heard that all of those short movies that they show during time outs featuring Papa John and Peyton Manning are just a clever ruse to encourage us to buy pizza. Don't be fooled, comrades.

excellent point, be you can be assured it will only continue if we beat the bucs and falcons. our matchup with the 49ers on four-game winning streak will be a compelling one.

You're right. I feel bad for the writers at NFL.com who had to do the same thing for the Bills/Browns game a couple weeks back. No one wanted to watch those two teams play each other. At least now they can market Cam Newton is playing.

it's because the Panthers got over 1M votes for the best uniform of all time, and they think we have more fans than we do.

[Brooklyn Bully]

Only the Huddle would bitch about no press and bitch about press. You lot are the biggest bunch of ninnies in NFL fandom.

[Mother Grabber]

who's bitching...other than you?

Strippers are nice to me because they want to make money. I still have a good time.
