(By David Scott, [email protected]) There's something about facing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers that perks up Jonathan Stewart and the Carolina Panthers' running attack. p/ Even with starter DeAngelo Williams missing the game with an ankle injury, the Panthers ran for 157 yards in a 16-6 victory against the Buccaneers in Bank of America Stadium.

their running game was just as good if not better. they ran for 3 less yards total but over a yard more per carry.

the only thing we accomplished today was to beat a 1-10 team by making incredible defensive stops in the red zone after having the ball marched up and down the field on us.

that crap won't fly against the 4 remaining teams on the schedule.

this game could have easily been 20 to 16. we squeezed one out of our assess today. lets celebrate it and enjoy it but remember, it was an EXPECTED win and not some larger than life miracle win.

now, if we can pull next week out of our asses in foxboro, then i'll be swinging from the rafters!

      Everyone says AT was old and slow but the one thing he could do consistently was get separation. That takes skill and it's been a huge issue in our WR for years. And while Moore may be a great locker room guy and our WR coach may be a 12 year vet, he's not playing in the game. Vets like AT do what they do because they can see things others don't and exploit it. The DB interview I mentioned before was with Stephon Gilmore after his DPOY season. He was pulling the younger DBs aside showing them things you wouldn't even think you'd be able to tell from the way the receiver was standing.  Seeing what a DB or LB is biting on in game that can give you that half step advantage is huge and we don't have that experience in our WR group right now and I think it could end up hurting us. None of our receivers have lined up against NFL corners successfully on a regular basis. Having someone that can walk over and give you a tip to get a half yard separation can be a difference maker.

      We only fielded about 4 NFL calibre players on that unit last year.

      only 1 QB in the history of mankind has managed a winning record with his opportunities in the David Tepper era.    Bring in PJ.   He has NFL tools.  He will at least be entertaining if called upon.  How is that not better than Andy.  *PJ Walker bandwagon is back up now that it is....not...time for for the percolator.
