worst plays in panther history

I'll have to agree with AK on this one.....the teams coaching/performance in Januarys NFCC game.

John Kasay missing all of his PA's and field goals in the regular season game against Philly in '03 was a close second.

Being a recent fan, It is most definitely the chris gambel kickoff return pass to richard marshall. It culminated the entire disappointment of that 06 season.

My second nominee would be Foster's toss play reverse where he ran backwards for 10 yards then coughed up the football. I get the biggest laugh now but at the time I was going bat crazy.

whats the worst single play in panthers history?

i'll go ahead and nominate kasay kicking it out of bounds in the superbowl

Gotta agree with you there. I'm sure there have been worse football plays (missed tackles, blown assignments, and certainly Jake's interceptions) but Kasay's kick out of bounds had the biggest impact that any single play has ever had on this franchise. I will always appreciate Kasay for what he's done for this franchise - he's won a lot of games for us and that's obvious. But I will remember that play for the rest of my life.

At the same time, I credit that moment for being a breakthrough in my own anger management. I threw the pint glass that was in my hand, and unfortunately the trajectory of said glass led to a ruptured screen on my nearly brand new 48-inch TV. To this day, I keep a roll of toilet paper by my side during key games. It's probably saved me a few thousands bucks and countless hours repairing holes in the wall.

And then there was the Matt Willig penalty in 2004 that directly cost us a game. And, in that same vein, there was Smitty losing his mind against the Texans and kicking a dude when it looked like we were going to have the game wrapped up in '03.

Good thread. It's bringing back all those things that I had suppressed long ago. :D

    • No doubt.  I was at the game watching it and it looked like a fly ball to the infield.  It got in the air and just hung up.  XL tracked it like a shortstop.  
    • You need to go outside and get some fresh air.
    • Sorry, I don't get the "mental" thing at all. If his football IQ was as low as you say it is, then he wouldn't be out there blocking as well as he is.  It is quite possible that he's been pressing due to not really being in the flow of the game because Bryce doesn't look for him on the regular. His strength, at the moment, seems to be as a mismatch in the slot on crossers and slants in my opinion,and for whatever reason (maybe height) Bryce is more likely going to chuck it to the sidelines. So, in a sense, maybe Legette and Bryce aren't a good pairing, and that gives the appearance that Legette is not all there. Lord knows that Bryce doesn't seem to be able to hit receivers in stride so they can maximize YAC. But anyway...all that being said, I thought that X would be more than just a possession type of guy. So we'll see where it goes from here. I'm not like some, who appear not to see the value in a guy who can kill you like that, and kill you just as well as guys that do their best work on the outside, but, X is going to have to be able to consistently hands-catch on the run and separate better at the top of the route if he really wants to unlock his potential as an all-around receiver. If Bryce could consistently and accurately hit receivers, especially in seams on the slants and crossers, it would open up Legette and the offense. Just my opinion, but I think he causes all the receivers to press to varying degrees, and causes the coaches to call plays that have built-in limitations, but I could be wrong about that.
