Well, rank this under "Things I hadn't seen before".

You know who was coaching the Rams secondary the year X-Clown happened?

It was Perry Fewell.

:fear:

 

What I loved about that game besides the play and W, was after the game it showed Smitty in the tunnel and he took one of those Thunder Sticks the whole crowd had that game and threw it in the trash bin, Classic Smitty, F*cking loved it!!!

I remember being exhausted after watching it on TV, being there must have been crazy. Downtown St. Louis is a great area, especially when there is an afternoon Cardinals game scheduled.

I have never been so exhausted, physically and mentally after watching a sports event.

"Physically tired" is something a lot of people who watched that happen say.

Absolutely... and with the benefit and experience of the subsequent 15 years, I am doubtful we will ever witness another Panthers game with that many ups and downs.  After that play was the first time I truly thought we could win the Super Bowl (and we almost did).

As fun as 2015 was, for me personally nothing will ever top 2003.  Maybe it was my youth, but the entire season seemed to unfold magically, and all these years later, I remember it with even more nostalgia.

The way the 2015 season ended took a lot of the air out of it.

We may not have won in 2003, but at least we were competitive.

I was at the game and was sitting behind the endzone where Smitty scored the winning TD.  My wife and I were surrounded by Rams fans and when he got past the last defender I stood up with my arms raised.  My wife was pulling on my shirt to sit down but there was no way I was doing that. 

And it did get quiet in the done very fast. Deafening one second, pin drop silent the next except for the cheering of Panther fans spread throught the stands.  

Man, that was a great experience.

    • Fowler: Bucs 23, Panthers 16. Baker Mayfield only won a single game when he was an unimpressive Carolina starter, but somehow he’s 5-0 when playing AGAINST the Panthers. For the Panthers to pull off this upset, they’ll need to score at least in the mid-20s. With Tampa Bay relatively healthy following a mini-bye (and Mike Evans’ return is huge), it feels like this will be too tough a task. Kaye: Bucs 24, Panthers 20. The win-loss-win-loss streak comes to an end. It’s hard to trust the play-calling following the loss to the New Orleans Saints. The Panthers know what’s on the line, but they also knew last week, too. It’ll be close; I just have trouble trusting a positive outcome after a defeating one on the road. Zietlow: Panthers 38, Bucs 35. This prediction goes against conventional wisdom, but then again, conventional wisdom doesn’t seem to apply to these Panthers. This group, after all, has yet to lose back-to-back contests since Weeks 1 and 2. I think they win this one to make Week 18 interesting — and yes, that’s even with motivated Baker Mayfield and future Hall of Famer Mike Evans in good form. Why not?
    • Sam developed into a different player after he mostly sat for a year and learned a ton by being in that QB room under Shannahan in San Francisco.  Then he went to the Vikings who have a poo load of talent and another genius level offensive mind at HC in Kevin O Connel. I think they genuinely built up his confidence in a way he never did in New York or Charlotte.  He would not have been the same player if he stayed here IMO. Especially if he had been involved in that disaster season with Frank Reich in 2023, that might have cooked his confidence for good.  I guess you could argue we wouldn't have been that bad if we also kept cmc and dj i guess. 
    • Willis was impressive last night given the circumstances. GB and SF seem to just have it figured out as far as QB goes.   It's frustrating, but I enjoy seeing our old players find success elsewhere.
