Today is a great day. The Carolina Panthers are once again in the NFL Playoffs. Together they defeated the lowly Saints of New Orleans and reclaimed their natural state of being.

 

Although the rain wasn't immediate, the wind arrived during pre game. It gently caressed long blonde locks as it left a chill in the air.

The day was not kind to Drew Brees. He was molested and harassed throughout the day. In fact, I bet he feels like he was just punched in the face...

Cam was hobbled by previous injuries, but still managed to produce when it counted.

Deangelo WIlliams had what may have been the largest hole of the year to run through. The TD looked easy, almost too easy.

When the rains did come, it was welcomed by the Kraken, who relished its arrival. You don't really want to tangle with a Kraken in the water, do you?

It then began to pour in buckets from the sky. I was barely able to track the ball carrier, but apparently Luke wasn't having any difficulty.

In fact, Luke set a career record for tackles in a single game. Along with Thomas Davis, I don't ever remember seing a more dominant linebacking duo in the NFL.

At times, the Panthers entire defense seemed to be made up of giants.

I believe a game ball should go to Colin Jones, who was a special teams demon all day today. He kept Sproles at bay and the Panthers in the game.

During the final drive,  the fans grew louder.

Fueled by their passion, Cam Newton connected with Ted Ginn for a big gain.

Then finally, in a play that will be remembered for many years, an unlikely hero emerged to win the game.

The Panthers, led by Cam Newton, are once again in the playoffs. That fact alone even had Santa doing the Superman.

      Reviewing the All-22: Week 1 @ JAX

      By Basbear · Posted

      Evero had me fouled about being one of best upcoming DCs. Im giving him until week 6 to show why he should last. If not for the LONG-TIME coverage skills of a healthy horn and MJ, its ultra scary to think they could be worst than giving up the most points in NFL history.

      Bryce Young is a problem — what would you do if you were Dan Morgan?

      By Loyalty4Life · Posted

      If I'm Dan Morgan I stick with the plan because one step back doesn't erase all the progress that Bryce made last season.  That was a total team loss and Bryce shoulders most of the blame because he's the QB and people are emotional. The Huddle would blame a one legged man for losing a kicking contest. Fans don't want to build a team.  They want one already built and winning from the jump. After the crime scene of Bryce's first year Tepper cleaned house and got his offensive coach who has a history of building QB's.  Dave had the nuts to bench a #1 overall QB in order to help him.  I agreed at the time that if the first 2 games of last year were what Bryce is, then drafting him will go down as the worst in NFL history. Everyone is doing exactly what they did last year when Bryce was benched.  Freak out.  Calls to cut him.  Sky is falling.  But when Bryce started playing better, and some games at a very high level, people started chopping up that plateful of crow.  Then the whole team craps the bed in the first game of the year and all those same people double down. Dave and the coaching staff had a plan to reset him and bring him back.  They did.  He not only played better but played a lot better.  I've always said that as long as Bryce is making progress and getting better, you don't pull the plug.  Think of it like a stock.  It's not going up in a straight line.   Some of ya'll bring shame to our motto.  Dan, Bryce and the rest of the team need to do what they've been doing all of last year.  Building, getting better. If I was Dan, I'd keep pounding.
