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

      this is where the Bryce defense goes off the rails for me.  We all know Bryce isn't a deep ball chunk play QB.  He doesn't have those physical tools and he doesn't play the game w/ that mindset.  It simply is not what he is.  Then you got folks going essentially going, well actually Shaq was a very efficient 3 pt shooter this season.  He shot 50% from behind the arc and Steph Curry was only at 48%.  So yeah, Shaq is a very effective 3 pt shooter.  Don't say he isn't a 3 point shooter.  Meanwhile, Shaq went 1 of 2 on the season and Steph shot 9343924 3s.  Russell Wilson is a deep ball chunk QB.  Baker is. Geno was his comeback season (best in the league that year I think is the correct call).  That's the Canales pass tree. EVERY QB throws deep at some point.  Arguing you can find a good grade when they went deep one week is just that.   No one can argue Bryce plays the game like a young Wilson throwing f you hail marys downfield.   Jake Delhomme fits Canales more than any Carolina Panther QB.  Teddy Bridgewater can grade out efficiently on his deep passes.  That doesn't make him a deep ball chunk QB.  2 totally different convos.    It would be better for everyone IMO if our org accepted what the unicorn was and built a team around that given they invested so much in him.....which is the criticism I started day 1 when they put him in Frank Reich's offense.  He didn't fit that.  He doesn't fit the Canales tree either.    NFL is about fit more than anything and it's what Carolina gets most wrong.  We essentially run offenses we don't have the QB talent for and you can say the same w/ the 3-4 D.  That's the Bryce era.
