Buffalo Boy

Local perception: Tepper has come in here and not garnered much good will. The team is starting to look like Cleveland South to locals with the way it’s being coached and run. Tepper refuses to speak publicly on the state of the Panthers. If you think using public tax money to pay for a stadium is controversial in WNY you should hear what locals (Govt. Hating, Don’t tread on me Rednecks) think about passing bonds to help the richest owner in the league build a headquarters for a team that doesn’t play in their state.

Big topic on local radio today. Not sure how screwing over Rock Hill serves his purpose. I can’t imagine this will make Charlotte want to pledge any money to building a facility here.

Where’s the lie🧐

Last year’s squad, coaches and Josh took basically the WHOLE season to finally hit their stride. We have a lot of roster turnover and some coaching changes at one of the most important positions. I have no earthly idea what this team is going to look like this year. Last year, when we completely crapped the bed during some games I will do as I did then: Remind myself it is a marathon not a sprint and the season is only a play in to the postseason which is a new season with unlimited possibilities……. If the effing coaches don’t blow it👿

I forgot how much I enjoyed math😎

I would say that they are just making do while they find a QB. That is born out of necessity and not Contrarian strategy. Indy had their guy and he quit right as they were surrounding him with talent. They have been trying to find their guy since ( and May have with Ryan in the short term) Pittsburg should have cut Cheeseburger a few years ago but it is hard for that team to Embrace sucking.

When you play poker, do you hold onto mediocre cards if you know the other guy has good ones, hoping he doesn’t know how to use his better cards to his advantage? It might work once in a while but it is a low percentage strategy. The NFL is set up as a passing league. Teams that make it their long term strategy to buck that trend are delusional.

I also live in Clt, moved here in 98 right when the Panthers started playing in the stadium here. I know multiple PSL holders. You have to renew your seasons every year or the PSL is lost. Also, the best time to sell is also the best time to watch . PSL values are analogous to housing values in as much as they are defined by the market conditions. You can sell when your team sucks but you won’t get that much for them. I don’t know a single “ Die Hard” Panther’s fan. All the people I know who have PSLs sell most of their tickets during the season. My guess is the price of tickets is about to go through the roof. Joe Six pack is pretty much priced out of the lower bowl and much of the upper bowl here.

I was a Josh Billiever by the second half of his first season. However, there were plenty on here who weren’t. Even well into season two this was the case. After the Cowboys Thanksgiving game I called him a Franchise QB. I got some grief for that( as well as some agreement) That was the game when it was apparent that he could process and distribute the ball quickly. It also showed he could do it on the National stage with the whole n country watching. So, NFL media types can be lazy with their takes but this board itself can also be a Doosey.

That would make some of the “ How we gonna replace Beasely “ talk stop😎

Browns gonna brown…… 💩

Da Fug!!!!!!!!

I agree that Cam didn’t have the work ethic to improve his mechanics that Josh does but a designed run or option play called by the OC is another thing entirely.

Cam’s SB/2015 year: 3,837 yards passing 636 yards rushing 11 ranked O 6 ranked D The Panthers caught lightning in a bottle that year and Cam was dialed in. Who was that Cam hater on here at the time? Boyst or something. He used to point out that the Panther’s O was constantly given short fields by the opportunistic D, which was true. Shula was never celebrated in Charlotte and the words “ creative offensive scheme” have never been uttered in conjunction with his name.

It’s unsettling to this old timer because he is the OC who got $#|+ knocked out of Cam. The last thing we need is someone encouraging our OC to beat up Josh some more👿

Piece of garbage, just like Rapelesburger. I’m so thankful we have our guy…. At he’s a good human being on top of being a unicorn, talent-wise.

This. I remember him hitting a beautiful 30+ yard dime to the left and thinking, “ Wow, he’s gonna be special.” And…… I was legit Happy they started Nate Peterman. I thought, for sure, he was going to expose TT for the mistake he had been all season😳….. oooof

Stupidity 😉

Same team that was still paying Cam to bring in Bridgewater. Then traded a second, fourth and sixth for Darnold and picked up his fifth year option before he played….. while still paying Bridgewater??? Is that the team that wouldn’t do a foolish trade to unburden themselves of a player who they signed to a ridiculous contract?

Didn’t read the article and only made it through the first page…. Including all the armchair GMs and their forward looking takes😳 Maybe it was spoken of on the next three pages, maybe not: CMC was Abusively overused, Both by Norv Turner and Joe Brady!!!! https://www.audacy.com/cbssportsradio/sports/nfl/panthers-have-overused-christian-mccaffrey-says-tiki-barber So, it’s a double edged sword. He’s definitely got at least a seasons more wear on him than he has played…. But he has also gotten a ton of rest the last two seasons. Off the top of my head, the two big ones were an ankle and a hammy…. Not a knee or back or neck. IMO, “injury history “ is a BS lazy take by a bunch of you who haven’t watched the guy game in and game out and don’t follow the Panthers. Slot receiver???? Two things come to mind. Who was rated as being the best route runner in his draft class? ( Rhetorical question😉) Remember when Kyle Allen was playing much better than Josh Allen? Who do you think his favorite target was? I agree there are possible cap issues and it is a crap shoot but having a game changing talent on the level of JA on the field with JA doesn’t sound bad to me. If only we had seen a team with a mediocre QB make a deep run in the playoffs with a guy who could play receiver but got used as a RB 🤔 we might think doing the same, in reverse wasn’t so far fetched.

I’m sitting in Cozumel at Havana Bob’s , drinking my misery away. I CAN’T EFFING BELIEVE WE AREN’T IN THIS!!!! See you guys at the draft👿

I was fishing in Ellicott creek. I got in my Mom’s car and the Bills had won which blew my 13 year old mind. I will always remember that moment.

I’m not greedy😎

I’ll make millions on a one year deal to coach any team😎

CLASSIC!!!!
