Here is part of the article:

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Ron Rivera was talking specifically about his defense, but he might as well have been summing up the state of the entire Carolina Panthers team.

“Our guys are going to learn and they’re going to understand those things and get better,’’ the first-year head coach said. “When they get better, people need to watch out.’’

Maybe people should start watching out for the Panthers now. They defeated the Washington Redskins 33-20 on Sunday at Bank of America Stadium.

That alone isn’t going to make Carolina’s season. The Panthers are 2-5, and I’ll go way out on a limb and say they’re not going to make the playoffs this season. That will come in the future. But they will have an impact on the NFC South race the rest of this season.

I have a feeling this team might be on the brink of really taking off.

it's pretty significant that cam didn't have a turnover, forcing our D to get back out on the field. the longer our offense can stay out there, the better.

Yas always holds a soft spot for the Panthers (used to write for the Observer I believe?)

Wow...

Yes he did write for the Observer.

Yas: regurgitating 2 week old quotes, and adding a few useless lines.

He's losing his touch...

Yes he did write for the Observer.

And the Tampa Tribune as well.....

Yoo-stink-ass is/was tolerable, that is why he left the Disturber fishwrap and butt sniffers Sorenson and Fowler.

I don't believe Yas has ever had a soft spot for the Panthers. Even when the Panthers are good, he writes like he expects them to implode at every chance. He's not nearly as overly biased as Florio usually is, he's definitely much more subtle. He's not too bad, but I usually perceive a slight bias toward the Saints. He's always expected them to do better than they are, and always expecting us (and the Falcons to some extent, other than Ryan) to do worse than we are.
