Game Thread: panthers vs commanders first game thread

[duke1861]

I don't hate RR like you, ... not saying he is a top notch GM but it looks like this past draft was well crafted and I think last years draft is going to look better than it did last year.

I agree, you would take Santa Claus RR because you dislike RR so much.

As usual, lets drop it.

I am not sure you and I have literally ever agreed on anything on this board. Fair enough?

Some good things some bad things in first half

 

[duke1861]

The Egel game should be sold out if we are 2-0, especially if Wentz dominates in those two wins.

So we would go from last in the league in attendance to a sell out because of Wentz. You realize you are literally the only one who thinks this.

I think Wentz can have a good year this year. We could sell out of we are winning. 3-0 start would be huge.

no chance they sell out even being 3-0

And no chance of selling out. Dean is neglecting the fact that the defense was terrible last year and looked bad yet again in the 1st half.

Dean doesn't take the big picture into account. Also, people have had it with Snyder and Dean doesn't understand that.

We are LAST in attendance and polls show we are LAST in fan optimism for 2022-2023. The stadium is a dump, traffic is allegedly a mess, the re-branding was a disaster, and we have a QB who is on his 3rd team in 3 years. That doesn't sound like a recipe for success.

The fan attendance at the game should be telling. The fans have left and are continuing to leave. Dean has advised that winning a couple of games or making the playoffs will change all of this.

Well that's another issue if we can't sell out at 3-0. We go to Dallas in week 4. If we somehow win that one its Titans at home Week 5. IF the Week 5 game doesn't sell out being 4-0 then this would be a huge issue.

Seeing them actually is better

You never explained how teams with worse records have better attendance. If winning cures everything, how is that NOT the case with DC?

Let me ask you this. If we are 4-0 after beating Dallas, do you think Week 5 sells out at home vs the Titans? I can see if Week 3 doesnt sell out with Philly.

It’s the first preseason game and we are losing , slow your role .

Yes, i was worried about the white unis. They look a hell of alot better in person. I would of liked to see the darker red numbers but that is water under the bridge.

I like it

I love Doc. Paulsen is a better analyst .... Doc was emotional as a player and he reports the same way. JMO

 

[skinsdad62]

Ok should see Howell

For this franchise, with all the off-field stuff., the team will have to win for all fans to come back. The diehards will be in attendance. Fair weather fans would need to see winning for them to get back to the stadium.
