Favorite/most memorable INT


Smithers

Recommended Posts

i was watching highlights last night and started thinking about all of the huge, game sealing plays the Panthers have had over the years.  Last second touchdowns aside, I find that game sealing interceptions are about as good as it comes.

so...what is your favorite or most memorable game sealing interception in Panthers history?  Josh Norman?  Pat Terrell?  Sam Mills?

For me, it has to be Chad Cota's interception of the Steelers in the end zone to seal our first ever NFC West championship!  I can't find a clip of this pick anywhere...but man I remember going crazy when it happened.  What a way to win the game and clinch the division.

Ricky Manning JR wrestling it away from (I believe) Torry Holt to save the 2003 Rams double OT game is my favorite. 

He beasted on that play.  Heck he had an amazing postseason...didn't he have like 4-5 interceptions?  I think he had 3 just against the Eagles.

Not saying this is my favorite but the freshest one on my brain that I can remember vividly was the game sealing pick Luke had in the end zone intented for Gronk against the Patriots 3 years ago.

Robert Lester made the pick. Luke was busy pinning Gronk in the back of the end zone.

Thanks. My memory is horrible!

Accidental quote and I can't delete it on mobile for some reason, so will take the opportunity to say no worries :-)

We all know the biggies so I'll pick a less major one that happens to be the only one I've seen in person - Chris Gamble's pick against KC in 2004, his rookie year. This also happened to be his first career pick and sealed a game where Jake threw a ridiculous TD pass to Kris Mangum while being spun in a circle by his jersey and DeShaun Foster had 32 rushes for 174 yards, including a 71 yarder. Fun game to watch.

Aside from all the ones mentioned already, Luke's pick 6 to start the game against Seattle was pretty great. I was at that game and the entire first half the place was insane after that pick and on. Second half everyone was shitting their pants. We pulled through and got to see the boys do their victory lap so it was great in the end of course. But all started with that pick 6.

    • WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.
    • Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.   
    • In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
