2003 Panther appreciation thread (Warning video may cause tears)

Yeah it’s a lazy rainy Sunday, and I felt the need to have another appreciation thread during the slow time of the offseason. Let’s all appreciate how special the season was with Jake the snake, Davis, Foster, Smitty, Muhammad, Jenkins, Pep, Minter etc. I have never been so proud of a Panther team as I was that year. ALL THE FEELS! What was your favorite memory of that special season?

Low blow,....

whats worst? 

This one, 1996 Green Bay NFC when we were rolling along beating the unbeatable or 2015 when we are steamrolling all the best only to get Goatfcuked?

i don’t know— 2015 probably felt like the Rams fans watching their team this year.

1996 was the first real emotions felt for the Panthers— I was watching with a lot of Marines in a land far far away with them being die hard Minni, Phili, Frisco fans...

2003,.. damn you John Kasay.

Over achievers, we don't get that around here anymore.

They weren't overachievers, the team was legit. The only question mark was QB and maybe secondary. The offense was loaded, as was the front seven.

I agree except I don't think QB was a question. Not in 2003 at least. The playoff run Jake had that year was brilliant.

My favorite team. They did overachieve IMO. Supposed to be dead meat in St Louis, and then went to Philly and just took it. People were not expecting that.

If the Pats had not had our plays, if Fox hadn't stupidly chased 2 points, if Kasay had done his job, if Manning Jr had not have slipped in the last possession..... maybe we don't have to listen to crap from every sorry fan whose team has won one.

    • I mean, what fanbase has high expectations when you have a QB like Bryce leading your team?
    • If you pay Bryce $50M a year you greatly limit your ability to put the type of team around him you need to have to have a chance to win. THAT is the problem. Hell, we can't win with him on a rookie contract. How the hell are we supposed to start winning with him paying him like a franchise QB and having to make tough roster decisions to accommodate his cap hit? 
    • Bruce can't be that. Darnold can make a ton of throws that Bruce flat out can't. Darnold's physical talent doesn't handcuff your play calling like Bryce's does. You just have to protect Darnold from himself and not ask too much of him in terms of putting mental pressure on him. That's when he cracks and turns into a turnover machine. Bryce limits the hell out of your play calling. Deep outs? Pretty much eliminated from the playbook. Sideline throws to the wide side of the field when you're on the hash marks? Woah boy. That's begging for a pick six. Throws more than about 10-15 yards beyond the LOS? We're basically having to scheme up those shots to come on 3rd or 4th and short when the D is expecting a run or a quick hitter. 3rd and long is basically a "gain a few yards to hopefully flip this field position eith this upcoming punt" play call versus trying to actually move the sticks. The opposing defense is essentially treating the entire field like its the red zone because Bryce can't really threaten them vertically outside of scheming up deep shots on traditional power running downs... something they'll likely be on the lookout for next year after studying up on us doing that with success down the stretch last year.
