John Fox Era Playoff Teams...

Something to think about this weekend, in the John Fox era we have had three playoff teams and each of those teams was involved in a season opener that came down to the last play of the game. In 2003, Jake came off the bench to rally the team to a victory with a last second TD pass to Ricky Proehl. In 2005, the Saints booted a field goal in the final seconds to beat the Panthers at home. And in 2008 the Panthers pulled off a shocker on the last play with Jake hitting Dante Rosario for the TD against the Chargers.

Maybe we should be rooting for a close game rather than a blowout.

close games are awesome after we win them, but they're absolute murder while they're being played. i almost died during the game vs. green bay last year.

i am a fan of absolutely steamrolling opponents. :D

this. We had a close one against Chicago, either last year or two years ago, early in the season. I actually caused property damage during that one.

FYI, that's how you know you're really a fan of a team; you break a table with your fist because you're losing.

Memories: 2003. We had some fire boys, we had some fire. I miss Bill Rosinski

Oh yeah!!! I miss Bill too, there were times where I would listen to games on the radio and mute the TV. Now not so much. He is one of the best in the business.

I watched a Dwill and Jstew video while I was on Youtube just now. I completely forgot all the offseason drama and all my questions about the Panthers. I watch that vid, and I'm reminded of how DOMINANT the Panthers are going to be this year!

...on offense at least

      Boy the flyers look good early. Lots of bad plays and slow start by our team. Hope that changes before the score changes.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes into account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as another treading water year (at QB). I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room. Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked. That’s how I look at it.
