How many of you were at this game? <It was a loooong time ago>

Was at Canton v. the Jags--did not come away with many expectations.

 

At Clemson the game I remember the most was against the Jets (then coached by Rich Kotite)--our first win--when Sam Mills (best ever Panther) intercepted a Bubby Brister shovel pass for a touchdown!  So good.

Ha I got lost reading all the other sports news. Atlanta's promising rookie Chipper Jones, Mariners (my favorite team) going down 3-2 with Orel Hershiser striking out Griffey.

Went to all the games that year.  I had season tickets and remember the drive down to Clemson.  I don't know how many times we would get jammed in traffic and have to use the access roads on 95 to try and get past the jam.  Wandering around on the backroads of South Carolina sometimes leading a pack of 25 or 30 cars.  It was before the day of GPS so were going down the backroads with a  state map hoping we were going right since many of the roads were not marked.  

 

It never happened but I wondered how long it would take to untangle everyone if we went round a bend and it was a dead end. 30 or more cars trying to turn around and go another way.  LOL

    • DeAngelo Williams: 1515 yards (2008) Steven Davis: 1444 yards (2003) Christian McCaffrey: 1387 yards (2019) Chuba Hubbard: 1195 yards (2024) Jonathan Stewart: 1133 yards (2009)   DeAngelo Williams 1515 yards in 2008 are most in Panthers history for a season this was when Double Trouble was at it's height. That year he averaged 94 yards a game. Steven Davis missed 2 games 2003 so he comes in at the most yards per game in a season at 103 yards. Mccaffrey averaged 86 yards a game in his 2019 campaign he also recorded 1005 yards receiving making his season statistically the best in Panthers history for a RB, had the Panthers had a better record he could have been a favorite for MVP. Dowdle currently is averaging 81 yards a game despite only starting 3 games thus far. In the games he has started 206, 183, 130 he's averaging 173 yards. In Green Bay he rushed for 130 despite having a 21 yard run wiped out due to illegal procedure penalty that could of saw a 150 yard day.    Top 5 yards per carry. Dowdle 5:6 (2025) Williams: 5.5 (2008) Stewart: 5.1 (2009) Mccaffrey: 4.8 (2019) Hubbard: 4.7 (2024) If Dowdle continues even close to the pace he's on he's poised to break DeAngelo Williams single season Panther rushing record.       
    • The BY9 situation is classic sunk cost fallacy. We traded premium assets to get him. Every few games he flashes the traits that made him appealing (quick reads, touch, composure) but the macro picture doesnt lie. Hes producing at a bottom-tier level across efficiency metrics in yards per attempt, EPA/play, completion percentage over expected, and explosive plays. Instead of objectively reassessing, the organization continues to justify the investment - new coaches, new systems, new excuses - trying to salvage what was invested. Giving him a 5th year is a self inflicted would.  We need to take our lumps and move on
