Can we stop blaming Kasey

All pretty valid points. To me the biggest mistake in that game was starting to chase 2 pt conversions way too early. Thanks Foxy

 

Other than that. Man was that one heck of a game?

Hindsight is 20/20. It was a defensive struggle for most of the game. It wasn’t certain at the time that we’d score more touchdowns.

Most of us knew we had little shot even after getting the tie. We knew how the game went. We knew we'd need the best defense of the night for the final seconds against the Pats best offense all season.

 

But it's unforgivable to muff that kick there and hand them the game. So no.

Yeah, there was no way to know that game was going to become a shootout.

I don't blame Fox for going for two ... I just think about how different the game would've been if we managed to convert one of them.

It was too early to go for 2. 

Have the Panthers ever had a HC who was a good game manager?

It is a team sport and while I don't solely blame Kasey, his mistake shifted the momentum.  I feel the same way about Cam not diving on the fumble.  

The Cam fumble thing is way overblown imo. 

He didn't dive on the ball for two reasons. 1. He was anticipating the ball changing direction. 2. He was too tall to just drop immediately on top of it.

I didn't like the call, but I understood it.

Up until that td drive, we had 130 yards in total offense.  And it was the 4th quarter. Bottom line, if we convert the first 2 pt conversion, we eventually have a 25-21 lead, and probably win the game. If we only converted the 2nd, we probably go to OT.

    • I am really sorry  that  happened to you they say to never meet your sports heroes i have friends who met  mickey mantle when they were young and he was a belligerent alcoholic at the time  ut broke their hearts  I had the opportunity to meet and spend  time with Cam Newton.     He was the polar opposite of Steve Smith and his public image.   Polite.  Honest when asked question.  You could tell the things that mattered to him and the things that  didnt. The disappointments in himself and the things that hurt him  those qualities make him quite a good interviewer too  i genuinely liked him   Im sure as young, rich, sports hero, he has not been a choir boy but there is goodness in him  the time i met him i took one of my friends with me from the west coast. She said she didn't like him and wasn’t enthusiastic about meeting him.  She left loving him   No one can say anything bad about ‘her Cam’ anymore 
    • Agree about oline. They've tried their best to improve that area. But honestly, has it looked like the most expensive oline in the NFL to you? Not just with Bryce. With Dalton's one game where they almost got the old man killed.  Also YAC shouldn't always be hitting a guy in stride while he's running full speed. Pickens killed us after the catch and those weren't all hit-in-stride plays. I remember a play in Miami when a guy caught a 5 yards curl and took it like 30-40 yards to the house. We don't have that in Carolina. Horn might be the closest thing to that but he can't get significant PT for whatever reason. If Bryce keeps trusting his receivers to make plays, I think he'll become more consistent. Seemed like he only trusted TMac. And force feeding one receiver isn't sustainable. Defenses will start to blanket him and take him out of the game. And yeah, keep taking deep shots. I hate all that dink and dunk football. Hate it. 
    • Dan Marino sucked too I guess. Washed up Elway carried by Terrell Davis was actually better than prine Elway. Lol
