I got poo'd from a couple of people for stating that I believe that Cam should've jumped on that fumble in the Superbowl.  I also said the same thing back then.  Reasoning being that you never know when you're going to get back.  A lot of people back then were saying that no he shouldn't risk it because of the injury risk.  But I say if you're in the Super Bowl you do what it takes to win. 

BTW...Jake Delhomme would've jumped on that fumble.

You do realize that the situation in that game changed everything?  Short field they get another TD.

End game stats
First downs-Panthers 21, Broncos 10

Total yards-Panthers-315, Broncos 194

 

Defining stat (of which Cam was a big part of) Turnovers-Panthers 4, Broncos 2

 

Cam cost us that game.  I don't forgive poor Super Bowl performances.  We should have had our first Super Bowl in SB50.

I'll bite on this. That one play did not lose us that game. It was a collection of bad plays, bad/no calls, and poor game preparation that lost us that game. Watch the positioning of the two closest Denver players on that play though, had Cam dove in for the ball he would have gone head first into the first Denver player and had the second one coming in to possibly lay another collision on him, which could have resulted in in being injured and out of the game. 

All in all, we lost, poo happens, it was four years ago. Move on.

      Panthers re-signing P Sam Martin

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      Sam Martin   CARPunter#6 Panthers re-signed P Sam Martin to a two-year contract. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports Martin’s deal is up to $5 million. Martin joined the Panthers last season on a one-year deal and wound up booting 56 punts for an average of 47.2 yards per punt. Martin is a 13-year vet of the league who has spent time with four different franchises. He landed a career-best 48.2 percent of his kicks inside his opponent’s 20-yard line last season.

      What to Consider when you Draft in Round 1

      By Basbear · Posted

      Surprised CB is that low.  19th is odd spot. For many recent drafts, teams only felt there were around 14 first round players.  So to many 19 is just an early second and doesn't hold the value of a first.  If you go off- the smart path of LT, QB, edge, WR, CB, etc. Whatever your OG, Safety, ILB, etc needs to be a difference maker, that's the key point. I've said the 8th best edge is better than the 1st safety. Same for QB and even WRs. You should 100% factor in position value.  MHS you've been wanting a FS, let me tell you its super difficult to be a difference making FS. You're just sooo farrrr away from the action and the end result most times. If you're in the play, defense made mistakes in order. Now to talk out of both sides, maaaaaann that white boy from Oregon....I thought he crushed the combine and honestly that alone made me rethink "is he worth 19 now?!?!" he's now in the discussion for me, but still below others.    Plus I feel TE is vastly underrated in value terms. But looking at the last 20 years of TEs in the first, its down right bad. You're better like X10 better drafting one in 4th or 5th.
