I'm not a Panthers fan because of media coverage. Coverage will create more fans and money for the team so it's a good thing, but I just don't give a fug. Popular (NFC East, Steelers, ect) and winning teams (Denver, San Francisco, Seattle, ect) get coverage. Look how little the Chiefs are covered and they are still undefeated. Look at the early 2000's, the NFC West didn't get much coverage. If you want the media to talk about your team constantly, cheer for a popular team or a team that consistently wins. Yes our team is winning, but there are a lot of teams that are sitting 6-3. Beating the 49ers at home has garnered more coverage, and bating New England will get more. To prove this more, Falcon coverage has waned as their record gets worse. if they have several years like this one, they will get little attention. Media coverage is all about getting people to look. A playoff run will earn us more,. but I don't care. I am a Panther fan and I don't need the media to cover this team for me to care about them.

Good analogy, Kurb.

So the media doesn't bow down and kiss our collective a$$ on a regular basis... So they have doubts...So they esteem others higher than us...

Big fat hairy deal :unsure:

Win a Super Bowl and you'll get plenty of positive attention.

Become a perennial contender and you'll rightly be regarded as such.

Till then, we still haven't proven anything other than that we can win games in the regular season. Heck, the Lions can do that.

You want respect? Earn it.

I really, really, really hope that when your wife asks if she looks pretty you have a better answer than this. :lol:

Its easy to say the media doesn't matter, but they really do.

Positive national attention = more panthers fans.

more panthers fans = more ticket sales, higher paying sponsors, and merchandise sales.

All that = Ownership being more willing to invest into something heavily because of a positive ROI.

What?! Did you hear something?!!! Are we moving?!!!! ARE WE MOVING TO LA???!!!!!!!!

You can put a nice bow on your crap, but in the end it's still just a stinky piece of shit.

 

So, you're saying I'm a piece of crap!??? *hands on hips*

more panthers fans = more hits on The Huddle.

 

More hits on The Huddle = more jingle in Zod's pocket

 

Fixed it for you.....we all know you are just a greedy corporate yummy at heart....you are just scared/ashamed to admit it. :thumbsu:

      If I’m putting myself in a team’s shoes - you’re looking at these prospects and Warren hits most boxes for a TE with a plus on most. So yeah, he’s a great prospect, no doubt, 1st round talent as a TE. But when I look at him through the lens of that PSU offense, they were running so much through him, I’m not so sure it was beneficial to seeing how he translates.  They were getting him open in the flat, running weird trick plays, and designed a lot of ways to find him on delayed seam routes and such. So a lot was structured around getting him the ball in creative ways to advance the ball, in steady sequences, methodically down the field.  Thing is, yeah he’s catching a ton, is big, and can block, but throw him into an NFL offense in a more traditional sense, he’s gonna be stickied by speedy LBs and big nickels. I just wonder how he is in a more isolated fashion— when he’s just a piece of a greater NFL offense getting shadowed by more talented defenders. I think it could still be great but I have question marks when it’s at the TE position. Will he look no different than other very solid TEs or is he this offensive centerpiece at the position that doesn’t come along often (Bowers, Gronk, Kelce, Witten, TG, etc)? I think he brings a ton and could be one of the safer TE prospects, but what I’m unsure about is if you’re really getting this new age Witten type people are crowning him as. Even if that’s the case, is that worth it? If he wasn’t in PSU’s Franklin/Allar offense, would you be seeing the same output?  More questions than anything - I could get on board with it, but it’s hard for me to really project because of how that offense was (which was so frustrating at times).

      Twitter sources, but supposedly the Rams want him. He might actually go Round 1.

      You aren't going to ever get him out of the equation. As he has stated previously, he believes it his right to make the final call on decisions.
