PFT: The worst moments in Panthers franchise history


CatMan72

Recommended Posts

Drafting Jimmy Clausen with the 33rd pick then drafting Cam Newton with the 1st pick the following season.. And still not having a franchise QB.

Are people this ignorant or do they not care so much about the Panthers, that they have no clue about even the most simplest details?

4. Losing to ATL in our first game. (huh?)

3. Rae Carruth.

2. SB 38 loss

1. 2008 playoff loss.

Crappy list, how is losing a playoff game worse than losing the SB and how is any of that worse than Rae Carruth?

It's a bad moment for an expansion team to lose it's first game against a well-established team like the Falcons? I would say the Falcons almost getting beat by an expansion team in it's first game is a worse moment for the Falcons.

How about going 1-15 in 2001?

How about going 2-14 last year?

That loss to Atlanta being on the list is just f'ing stupid. That was actually one of the best 50 moments in team history if only because of how exciting the game was and how crazy it was that we almost started off with a win. If one of our offensive lineman didn't jump offsides late (on a 2-point conversion try maybe?) we might have won it.

He did get the Top 3 right however (although I'm not sure about the order). What I like about Florio is, as hateable as he can be at times, at least he knows the Carolina Panthers probably more so than any other national guy. There's no way that any national guy remembers that Sunday Night Football game vs. the Giants in 2008 that Florio mentioned.

we're such a young franchise we haven't had a chance to REALLY have some bad moments. He picked the most dissapointing, not really the worst moments.

I'd rather lose the superbowl than go 1-15 or 4-12. I'd rather Jake throw 5 INTs in the playoffs than throw 4 INTS to open the season like he did in 09.

asking peppers publically to step up when he was obviously very sheepish was really bad. Then letting peppers walk for nothing while also being the franchise that got worked in a trade previously for another high profile defensive lineman.

He covers a lot of them in honorable mentions.

Rae Carruth should be number one, even though it's really about a person who just happened to be a Panther.

The 2008 playoff game should be number two. The running game was too good to be blown out like that. Nobody was really picking us to win the SB.

    • Little worried about Jarvy Shoulder and that torn cuff, it's needed surgery for 2 years now and he's gonna play with it injured again next season.    I like the toughness but would definitely prefer it to be fixed. He's an intritical player on the team going forward.    Also I was high on pain pills last time I wrote about saving cap space but I didn't go into detail cause I wouldn't have been able to do so. "still on a ton of pain medication but not as nearly as many, think I'm down to 23 pills a day from 32 a few days ago, 18 of them are for pain management in some form or another."     But I digress let's get to the point I was trying to make in my last post about saving, I'll now use Jarvis as an example.    Let's say the canes spend 23m of the 28m in space they have available. Then have Jarvis get surgery and put him on LTIR at the start of the regular season.  You let the cap space sit til the trade deadline. At the deadline that cap space would have accural on it and the team can use that space and spend 24m on incoming salary for the rest of the season. Let's say they bring in 5 players and send out two. "player A has an 8m AAV contract" he'd cost Carolina 4m the rest of the season. Player B makes 10 "cost of 5. So forth and so forth.  Using that accural system and the Jarvis LTIR, the Canes could then go into the playoffs with a healthy Jarvis and be 19m over the cap legally for a cup run. The more cap space available at the start of the season, the larger the accural would be at the trade deadline.    That was the first part of what I was going to try and articulate the other day but I'm on 35mg of oxy every 6 hours plus ketorolac and two other pain pills and another for kidney spasms.    Have a wonderful night everyone
