It's just a crying shame what has happened to us this year with injuries etc. I hate losing to the Seahawks and 9ers more than anything.

We got spoiled by a D that simply stifled other teams and got use to that kind of play and results. Well very few teams can sustain that for an entire season and we lost too many key players to maintain that kind of excellence.

We would have won 12 games this year (or more) if Palmer hadn't gone down.

Next man up was working wonderfully for awhile but NO team is deep enough to sustain the losses we did and win games.

Hope we can beat the Panthers because I don't want to set the NFL record for losing to a team in the playoffs who had the worst regular season record of any team ever to get into the playoffs. After that I can't see us going any further. Crying shame for sure.

The Seahawks were 7-9 in 2010 when they beat the defending champs New Orleans saints

Nobody is giving him a pass.

People saying we can't beat Carolina are a joke. They won 7 games this year in a sissy division against weak teams.

We had a tougher schedule with no QB stability and won 11 games.

I agree!

But I still think Lindley is getting a pass from some. He's so bad. :(

don't worry... we can't set that record. The Saints lost to the 7-9 seahawks four years ago. Carolina is a smidge better at 7-8-1.

I do remember the 7-9 Seahawks beating the Saints but I didn't think the Panthers were at 7 wins. That's the lack of respect I have for any team in that division this year.

The teM is toast... They've finally cracked IMO and don't believe they can win anymore.

It was still a road game against the #5 defense. Road games are hard. I don't think it means they quit. However, at this point my concerns for the defense are gaining ground on my concerns for the offense.

We lost the 2nd half of this game to a team that normally sucks in 2nd halves. :rolleyes: Ugh.

4-4 on the road, but 1 out of final 3...team limps into playoffs and its not looking good.

Thankfully, we get CAR, but Newton and Stuart have been running well. We are to the point where if our defense cannot score the team cannot win.

Our defense has created ZERO turnovers in the 3 of past 6 games.
