I feel sorry for Panther fans. Talk about destroying positive momentum from last year. This franchise is doomed.

#6 - you fired a great coach for no reason
#7 - too much tinkering with the roster in the offseason screwed up the team's chemistry
#8 - the logo change was/is atrocious

With well over 100 man games lost at just the half way point, Florida has yet to have a healthy roster for even one game this season.


Well over 100? How about 108, or 16th most in the league.

Don't normally disagree with you heavily, but 4 is just a ridiculous statement.

Firing Gallant is the worst move they could have made. Dan is clueless again. Man you're really lost.

Some fans, I don't get. After being the type of franchise we were for more than 20 years, then after we finally turned it around, we're right back there again. And some fans make vicious attacks on anybody criticizing the people responsible for that.
You can rationalize anything to look positive, especially if you pick and choose here and there individual things. But this franchise has been bad before, and going no where, you could have picked individual parts and said this is why it's not as bad as it looks, but it was as bad as it looked. And this current version of the Panthers are the same way, and that's because of bad management, which some people refuse to acknowledge for some reason.
It's baffling, people could criticize Tallon. But when it comes to this management group everything they do is great to some people, if you don't like them, you just don't understand because they are smarter than anyone.
Emotion is laughable. Emotion is the only reason someone keeps backing this management. People who care about winning are only ones with their head on straight and are criticizing this management group.
