I really hope no one associated with the Panthers or their family members visited the Huddle today.

[Happy Panther]

Generally, I agree. I'm not one to chastise others over their opinions with few exceptions.

 

But reading the Huddle today just blew me away. The negativity and fear displayed by more than a few, including the guy who runs things around here, was a shock. 

 

I guess I just don't get it.

 

I think you are confusing negativity with realistic discussion.

 

Not sure what you were expecting on a Panthers discussion board.

 

And do you really think Panthers and their families give a crap what a few people on the internet say?

You have to love a message board where standard fare is writing checks that your team is expected to cash.  And then beating your chest all the while.

So I would purchase a PSL but throw money on our opponent? That doesn't make any sense. You can't find a single post where I said that we would lose. I go into every game expecting and hoping for a win. That doesn't mean I don't recognize the areas in which the opposition is stronger.

Let me tell you a secret. The coaching staff knows it too that's why they gameplan.

Just sop being a Debbie downer. This is the best team we've had in 5 years, maybe even a decade and we might not be back in this position for another decade for all we know.

Enjoy the ride.

How about Any day.... Today is not really a new thing lol.

Id rather face a team we already schemed for bc the Packers and that quick pass offense could really expose our defense more than the Niners could.

Even though the Packers defense is suspect our run game makes any defense a Run stopping machine.

Its a QB league and Discount Double Check is light years better than Kaepernick.

Unleash te Kraken again! Hopefully CJ is feeling much better.

I fully expect us to be in this position for the next ten years. We are a team on the rise not decline.

Fans are allowed to have legitimate concerns about their team. Its all part of being a fan. sheesh.

This is the whole purpose of the existence of 99.8% of Message Boards right? To find like minded individuals to complain or debate about crap.

My first thread ever was "Mushin Muhammed: The hands of Stone" who dropped more passes than Lafell his early seasons.

However it does not mean you cannot get the Huddle gas face for being an irrational tool.

I wouldn't worry too much about players reading this forum very often.

They are busy guys with much better things to do than spend hours reading the same rehashed nonsense over and over again.(with a few exceptions)

Hardy called us "the greatest fans" last week so I'm sure he doesn't read the huddle

Personally I've taken the time to enjoy the season, and I don't see how that is not apparent. I've barely said anything concerning over the season. If that's what other people feel like doing, though, that's their prerogative. People shouldn't have to be reprimanded because someone thinks they're not being optimistic enough. Seems to be that there's more complaining about people complaining than actual complaining on here.

Yeah, this is way too fuging similar to 2008 for my liking.

How? Because we are at home? I fail to see any other similarities.

Hey guys, remember when the whiners were getting trashed in the SB and the NFL had to turn the lights off to keep the game from being a blowout? Or what about that one time where they barely beat the 8-7-1 Packers in the type of game their team is designed for? Anybody who thinks the Panthers have "no chance" is either really dumb, or not a Panthers fan, so why worry about it?

[Marguide]

Look, I started the thread as a reaction to people saying we stood no chance, that they were afraid of the 49'ers, that we were sure to lose because the last time SF had so many people missing from their lineup (1).

 

Sorry if it came off as a complaint about those with concerns or pointing out weaknesses we needed to improve on. That was not my intent, and I think most of you know that's not my style.

 

We certainly have weaknesses SF can try to exploit, but they do too. This is not going to be a cake walk for either team.

I never saw anyone post this. Can you quote some?

Absolutely

I personally am going into this thinking we have a good chance to win because if this is the year the panthers win it all, I want to be able to look back and know that I enjoyed it in its entirety, not just only after the team was awarded with the lombardi. Not everybody thinks the same way though.
