PFT: The worst moments in Panthers franchise history


CatMan72

Recommended Posts

Drafting Jimmy Clausen with the 33rd pick then drafting Cam Newton with the 1st pick the following season.. And still not having a franchise QB.

Are people this ignorant or do they not care so much about the Panthers, that they have no clue about even the most simplest details?

4. Losing to ATL in our first game. (huh?)

3. Rae Carruth.

2. SB 38 loss

1. 2008 playoff loss.

Crappy list, how is losing a playoff game worse than losing the SB and how is any of that worse than Rae Carruth?

It's a bad moment for an expansion team to lose it's first game against a well-established team like the Falcons? I would say the Falcons almost getting beat by an expansion team in it's first game is a worse moment for the Falcons.

How about going 1-15 in 2001?

How about going 2-14 last year?

That loss to Atlanta being on the list is just f'ing stupid. That was actually one of the best 50 moments in team history if only because of how exciting the game was and how crazy it was that we almost started off with a win. If one of our offensive lineman didn't jump offsides late (on a 2-point conversion try maybe?) we might have won it.

He did get the Top 3 right however (although I'm not sure about the order). What I like about Florio is, as hateable as he can be at times, at least he knows the Carolina Panthers probably more so than any other national guy. There's no way that any national guy remembers that Sunday Night Football game vs. the Giants in 2008 that Florio mentioned.

we're such a young franchise we haven't had a chance to REALLY have some bad moments. He picked the most dissapointing, not really the worst moments.

I'd rather lose the superbowl than go 1-15 or 4-12. I'd rather Jake throw 5 INTs in the playoffs than throw 4 INTS to open the season like he did in 09.

asking peppers publically to step up when he was obviously very sheepish was really bad. Then letting peppers walk for nothing while also being the franchise that got worked in a trade previously for another high profile defensive lineman.

He covers a lot of them in honorable mentions.

Rae Carruth should be number one, even though it's really about a person who just happened to be a Panther.

The 2008 playoff game should be number two. The running game was too good to be blown out like that. Nobody was really picking us to win the SB.

    • Yup the casuals on Facebook ive gotten 85 laughing or angry emojis so far for pointing it out.  The amount of them throwing a fit because the canes were booed is insane  
    • Why are you so fixated on yards? Even if yards were a good judge of QB play, his low yardage totals in some of those games were partly a function of drops (looking at you Xavier Leggette…).  I’m not advocating that Bryce was elite for the last half of last year, but the eye test certainly supported high level QB play for large stretches. He made a lot of high difficulty, put it on the money/drop in the bucket throws. He converted on 3rd and 4th down, kept drives moving, and put the team in position to win games. And it’s not on him that the defense blew it late after he led game tying drives, Leggette dropped a game winning TD, or Chuba fumbled the ball in OT. We could have finished the season close to .500 with wins against 3 playoff teams including KC and Philly during that stretch largely due to Bryce’s play.    Has he sustained this level of play long enough to deserve an higher ranking? No. But for judging based in that stretch alone, he would. But whether he can perform more consistently at that level or build on that, and thus earns a higher ranking, remains to be seen. 
    • Totally agree with you, if we had invested in drafting a corner or two I wouldn’t even ponder adding Ramsey. But, to be honest we legit added nobody to our corner room this offseason we have nobody worth developing. Even if Chau Smith Wade is better then what I think, he is the only guy we have invested draft capital into outside of our starters.
