I imagine Panthers and Cardinals message boards are also full of negativity as well, and they're coming off of better seasons and have more promising situations with coaches and management. So of course there's going to be an overwhelming amount of negativity here. The boards just reflect reality.
People are fed up. I try to be positive myself. I was pretty much the only.one who predicted a win over the Ravens last week. There's just not much positive to discuss at the moment. Even the draft is viewed negatively now because we've whiffed a lot recently.
If you or Fred have any ideas, I'd love to hear it. I'm not even trying to knock you guys. I'm just saying...it is what it is right now.
It reflects reality to a certain degree. People are too emotional right now to be logical and the skews peoples reality. I hope people don't truly believe we should consider shopping AJ Green. I'd feel the same about the Cardinals or the Panthers fans losing it over one season. The need to get a grip and realize the NFL is an up and down business for all franchises not located in New England and one down season doesn't mean the franchise has fallen back into the 90s.
Too many people are speaking only in extremes and say things like they want to blow up the team despite being a year removed from one of the best seasons we've had in a while. Obviously changes need to be made but acting like there is no chance we will win, no coach will want to coach here and our roster is full losers is hard for me to respect because I can only assume that isn't a thought that is based off of football knowledge it's just emotion for the sake of emotion. Which isn't promoting discussion and is hogging up all the air.
There's a lot to be negative about and rightfully so but I lose patience with people who want to make a new thread every time they think they have the latest and greatest Marvin joke or put down and contribute nothing to other threads trying to discuss what actually needs to be changed other then one-liners about how the team sucks. A portion of them are the same people who go out of there way to moan about something when things are going well.
