Best Carolina Game Ever...

My favorite game was in Clemson SC when we beat the Jets after Sam intercepted the toss and ran for a TD.  First win ever as a franchise.  What made it special was sharing it with my oldest son and my father. My son is 38 and married and my father died from Alzheimers years ago. But this was when he was still sharp and a big football fan.  There have been other great moments but you always remember your first.

How about games when the Panthers put somebody out of the game... Career even...

Michael Irving and Deon Sanders - Both put into Charlotte Memorial Hospital that night.

Dante Culpepper.

Donovan McNabb (playoffs)

Chris Simms (If I remember correctly Jenkins busted his spleen.)

If anybody can remember more or make corrections thx.

We used to be scary.

Sam Mills was a great man. I only briefly saw him coming out of Eddie Bauer in South Park, we briefly acknowledged each other he was gone months later. I'll always treasure that moment I saw Sam Mills in person. Glad I didn't go into geek mode.

The 2015 playoffs are obviously amazing outside of the super bowl but the regular season had a bunch of gems too. Nailbiter in Seattle, ending Romo and destroying the Cowboys on Thanksgiving, Norman clinching the Saints game with an interception in the end zone, long game winning fg against Indy, shutting out the Falcons at home 38-0 I think. @MasterAwesomeand I had season tickets that year and you couldn't have asked for a more incredible home slate.

Is that the one when Kris Jenkins blocked that field goal? Didn't Pep block one that game too?

Yep craziest game I ever saw, and the Bucs had all that hype coming off their superbowl dub.  Joe Jurevicious was supposed to be the man that year, and then he got hurt.

I cant remember the year because I am old and went to so many games...  But we beat The Steelers at the end of the game to make the playoffs...  The place was rocking !!

1996. I remember that! Seared in my brain is seeing Chad Cota with the end zone interception to end the game.

My favorite will always be the 1996 playoff against the Cowboys. 75,412 fans new to the notion of NFL playoffs, rockin' like there's no tomorrow. The team came out of the locker room and ran around the stadium thanking the fans. No one wanted to leave that night.

That was the first year at Ericcson (sp).  I was gonna post this one cause that was my first game there.

The Steelers were my team before my home city got a franchise so this one was special to me.

    • He played like the kid coming out of Alabama. That's what he has done and what everyone expected him to do from the jump. What almost everyone failed to consider was what it would take to get him to play like that in the nfl. Turns out it was just a matter of confidence. 
    • This is actually a good discussion that dime to Legette was about 35 yards very accurate but not the TD throw to AT, but I definitely found Bryce hitting passes extremely similar to Andy I didn’t think Bryce could a couple weeks ago but that’s just not true he can. 32 sec mark he drops a dime 40 yards down the field where only Cooker can catch it with plenty zip with elite accuracy, I’d say the exact same dime Andy threw just diff part of the field. Bryce is showing he can make every throw Andy can make.  And your question is way to specific to find examples but I can find you very similar plays and If my boy Legette catches the dam ball Bryce might be able to have a deep TD pass that traveled about 30+ yards in the air we just need him to catch the ball and take off up the field but that’s not my argument I’m here to show Bryce throwing similar darts to Andy in his first year of being in a competent offense. TMJ and DJ Chark Mingo Ian Thomas lol and others as your go to weapons I’d say can have a major negative affect on your performances. But to address the argument here Bryce has film doing what Andy can do here’s the proof. (See video above)
    • I agree with all of that and Fitterer definitely sucked.  Some of that may also be blamed on the fact that he did not start with a fresh regime to come in.  So he had already burned some of his wick when we were starting over with a new coach (twice). The reality is that we do not often see players traded for that kind of package in the NFL today.  We don't see teams selling off star players for large hauls to start a re-build.  Whether or not that is the correct decision is up for debate.  But in the NFL it's observable that the opposite is mostly the case.  Teams tend to over value present assets vs future assets. It all goes back to the fact that "now" is all that matters if you're running an NFL team.  They say the NFL stands for "not for long".  You don't have the luxury to sow a field that won't be harvested until after you're gone.  Nobody's that selfless in NFL front offices.
