I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake. I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one. I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display. I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor. Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB). They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
