Loved Nick Goings. He will always have a special place in my heart... Dude was all heart.

I still wonder what that 2004 team could have done in the playoffs. We had some real fight on the roster that year to overcome so much adversity.

They were in the 'playoffs' for about 8 weeks before the season ended, so I think we saw it. They just ran out of gas vs the Saints in week 17. Loved watching that team though and how they all came together midseason, with Moose looking absolutely dominant during that back stretch and Goings just getting it done.

To be fair, we had no answer for Michael Vick before Thomas Davis so I find it hard to count that, but yeah. I think they could have made a run in the NFC at least.

People really tend to forget just how good Moose was that year, too. He led the entire league in yards and touchdowns outright and was 6th in receptions. Got shockingly close to a triple crown a year before Steve Smith got his.

I feel bless to have lived through that era of football as well as the Newton Kuechly era... I remember sitting at the bar the after winning the NFC Championship game and thinking, I need to cherish these days because they aren't going to last forever... And now here we are in a constant state of suffering.

You never know how good you had it until it's gone. We went from only a handful of sub-7 win seasons in our history to wishing for even a few.

      I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
