Dallas and Washington were the 2 teams on TV here before the Panthers. Most original Panthers fans were following now of those 2 teams. Thats why Dallas seems to get a little extra sauce from fans.

Good question. Here are some of the best I can think of off tops. Beating the defending champion Dallas Cowboys in the playoffs at home in our 2nd year was pretty epic. Also following that up in 03 with another Dallas playoff ass kicking in BOA. Beating the defending champion Buccaneers by blocking an extra point with no time left on the clock sending us to overtime where we won was other worldly. 2008 @ NO last second FG to win the division. (was there) 2013 vs NO Hixon last second TD in the rain. 2015 vs Dallas on Thanksgiving. Luke back to back Ints. Honorable mention: Jacksonville. Our expansion brother. Its more relaxed than an actual rivalry but I always keep an eye out when they play well. Oh and losses? Yeah I dont really remember those. Not sure its ever happened?

History. Until we beat it we're doomed to repeat it.

This is the greatest image I've ever seen. The sheer power emanating from these 2 muthafuggin Champions, these two titans, is too much for one screen. I bet the camera melted after it was taken.

We could trot out the wild cat offense and I still wouldn't want "Teddy back".

Do we really need a #3 when we have 2 #1s and a McCaffrey? Depth would be great, another playmaker would be ridiculous.

Did Richardson call down to the field and tell Ron to manage the clock like he forgot how to football?

Gotta admit it’s a damn miracle he managed to not win a trophy with a league MVP QB and the best MLB in the game. Most teams never have one of those and we had both.

They used to have a whole segment on TV called “Moss’d”. It was every DB that got postered. “You got Moss’d”

This. The Jets experience as a whole over the last 3 years has been egregious. The few bright spots they had were big plays made by an improvising Darnold. I’ve watched the good plays and the bad ones. I just don’t see a problem outside he was a Jet for 3 years.

Ok that helps. Im stuck in the mindset of the Tampa-2. I mean if Chinn can be Ed Reed then great but to me he feels more like Brian Dawkins. (In my limited viewing) Im with you tho, I don’t care as long as it works.

Oh yeah, I don’t want to throw a pity party for him. Hes gonna be fine I’m sure. He’ll move back to WV and sell real estate or coach a private HS team. I’m not worried for his future.

Grier is another victim of Hurney’s idiocy. Poor guy never had a shot. Hasn’t performed well enough to earn one either. The game is fast. Really fast. He’s a good kid and probably a steady presence in the QB room. That is the extent of his ability to impact this team. Cheerleader with a clip board.

8-9 or 9-8? 17 games. .500 is no longer possible. It’s either a winning season or a losing one. Thanks for the recap!

@Mr. Scot Can you explain (if possible) The FS/SS responsibilities in our defense? Are they interchangeable? I can’t figure out why they want Chinn at FS. Traditionally the FS is the center fielder/ball hawk, no?

This we agree on. I see where you’re coming from. Sam ain’t what most of us wanted or even considered. But now that it’s him, we can either watch and hope he shows improvement, or cross arms and wait for him to screw up. One way seems more enjoyable than the other. Jus sayin.

I hate building in excuses but a 4th year player should be 25-26 not 23. Its crazy how young he really is. I believe Joe Burrow is older than Sam. The cognitive development between 20-25 is substantial. He still has time to "get it".

What a terrible comparison. Breaking a contract with the bank will usually leave you homeless with no credit. Breaking an NFL contract usually means you get to buy real estate in a new town.

Ive witnessed wether live on TV or in person every one of those big games. I'm familiar with the refs, I just usually dont go back and watch our "iconic" games b/c we won and I like my memories. I went back to this one b/c I was 13 and my memory aint what it used to be.

Its understandable to overlook dump off options NOT named CMC.

Youre right in that it doesn't matter to the team. They'd much rather have a sweep. Bad officiating is extending series. Benefits somebody.

I doubt getting called out bothered them. Game 3 gave Nashville a home win in front of their crowd, it means Carolina wont advance in Nashville and will most likely get to celebrate at home. Thats just good TV scheduling bud.

I watched the full broadcast again and, wow. The no-calls in this game are questionable to say the least. Any way, it was a fun watch, if it even shows on here?

I'll tell you who wont play fair no matter what and he resides in Foxboro.
