Times Panthers lived up to the optimism in week 1

Besides losing the SB '08 was the worst for me... I was sure we were going to make a deep run into the playoffs and maybe even win the SB. The stars seemed to be aligned for us, we had 9-7 Arizona at home on a rainy night.

That loss and the announcement from Peppers the follow Saturday were devastating, biggest swing from a high to a low that I've experienced outside of losing the SB.

Things are different this year though. For one I think it starts with Rivera. Everyone got duped by John Fox because he made a run to the SB with us. The style of football he played just lacks consistency in the current era. "Looks like Jared Allen is really beating up on Jake today" Fox Solution: "Uhhh block better Jordan *chew* *chew*... that'll solve it".

All in all though, we've done pretty damn well for only being in the league since 1995. Add to the fact that we nabbed a legitimate star quarterback (something we, the texans or the jags have never really had) in the draft and theres no reason to think we won't get better. Cam may never be as good a passer as Brady or Brees but I think he can be just as good a quarterback and get to a point where 10+ win seasons are routine.

don't forget entering the fourth quarter up 19 against a poo green bay packers team on monday night football only to watch them score 16 unanswered points before we finally got a stop and won by 3.

Yea it came down to the wire I recall.

As good as that 05 team was (probably 3rd best in the league), it was such a sucker for a trap game.
