That move was insane.. the hesitation had Gross reaching for air. LOL...
Panther fans need to sit back and enjoy the show this year. Next year I think fans can get mad at their win loss record but this year is all about watching this team grow. Minnesota isn't as bad as their record indicates either... they were outscoring teams by a ton before the half and giving the game away in the second half.
Unfortunately they didn't give this one away.. the Panther's did.
Yes, that was a great move and Minnesota has some nice pieces of the puzzle, Ponder will become a solid QB (even if he's from FSU...LOL). Tell ya the truth, remember the QB class of '83 with Elway, Marino, Kelly, etc..Class of 2011 might not reach those lofty achievements but rarely do you see this many rookie QBs with so much impact (or potential impact) in the league:

If they weren't as bad as the record shows, then why was McNabb benched. If they weren't as bad as the record shows, why are the only wins against a 1 win team and a 2 win team. With Ponder at head, they might be better but that offensive line still sucks in the pocket.
Oh and Washington still sucks. Skunked by Buffalo. Beck sacked 9 times with 2 interceptions. Leading rusher this week Torian (originally the starter) averaged 1.4 yard/carry.
Oh and Arizona still sucks. Still haven't won since beating us Week 1. Kolb the past 4 weeks: 3:5 with 2 fumbles lost.

The final score was 24-21 not 14 to 3. LOL
Those two touchdowns don't happen from easy field advantage, the score is 21-10.

But when they lose do they blame the OL for not protecting Cam? Do they talk about Gross whiffing on a black (that was an awesome move by the Pro Bowler Jared Allen)...
Key word: Pro Bowler. Let me add another one: SACK LEADER. He is a beast. Most guys can't block him so the backfield, i.e. guys behind that line, should be aware of his presense.

Again, I did show up. I was glad they won, even if it was against a bad team.

*chuckles* I guess my "in other rookie QB news" pieces started to make you think

when the Panthers won last week there were people on here talking about how the OL should get credit instead of Cam...
But when they lose do they blame the OL for not protecting Cam? Do they talk about Gross whiffing on a black (that was an awesome move by the Pro Bowler Jared Allen)...
nope.. it's all Cam. It's cool though.. fans watched Cam drive them down for the game tying FG after getting a first down called back on a horrible holding call...
5 losses by 7 points or less. If that doesn't give fans hope than they weren't fans to begin with...
oh and by the way..Steelers get their due. They were ferocious yesterday.
If they weren't as bad as the record shows, then why was McNabb benched. If they weren't as bad as the record shows, why are the only wins against a 1 win team and a 2 win team. With Ponder at head, they might be better but that offensive line still sucks in the pocket.

blah blah and blah...
McNabb was benched because he is old and tired... they outscored teams by a ton in the first half and were outscored by a ton in the second half.
I don't care if those teams never win another game it still means little when they come to play the Panthers.
oh and by the way..Steelers get their due. They were ferocious yesterday.
it's about time we got the Brady monkey off our backs...
The best thing to ever happen to the Steelers is the injuries to our aging vets. We were playing to many old head and they were getting exposed... the young guys have filled in nicely.
This is where the Panthers need to step it up... draft some good players instead of drafting projects.
But you talked such a huge game about these teams about how good they were either prior or after the win against us...
Especially that guy from FSU
who talked a huge game? Please quote where anyone said these teams were playoff bound or world beaters.
If you came back to reality you would understand that most people are talking about how good these teams are in certain areas and how they match up to the Panthers.
For some reason you love to put up stats to prove these other teams don't play in the NFL or have any decent players compared to the Panthers.
You talk about the Panthers like they are coming off a 14-2 season and have a reputation for winning. The Panthers haven't had back to back winning season's at all under John Fox.
Ever since Cam proved you wrong you have put unrealistic expectations on this football team. You are the one who said Cam wouldn't make it through the season as a starter.. you are the one who said Cam would be out of the league in 3 years.
