PrintArizona Cardinals at Carolina Panthers, Jan 10, 2009 8:00 PM EST
I couldn't help but start this thread a little early as game day has finally arrived yet we still have to wait ALL DAY. For me tonights game is about making a statement that the Panthers are truly one of the best four teams in the NFL. If they win tonight then the rest is all gravy. See, I lost my youthful idealism at least a decade ago. I don't require Super Bowl trips every year, I don't need to blow out every team and have a roster full of PB players (though 2 All-Pros is nice!). A division championship and at least one playoff victory will do just fine. A home crowd in a frenzy, a team fired up and making plays, now that is what NFL football it is all about. I fully expect the Panthers to play well tonight and make us proud. If they then take the next step then we can all be grateful and enjoy the ride!
Game Predictions:
- Both RB DeAngelo Williams and WR Steve Smith will score - Just getting the easy ones out of the way
- DE Julius Peppers will get a sack - Okay, still not going out on a limb.
- So where will the turnovers come from? I think SS Chris Harris will finally get another forced fumble and CB Chris Gamble will get a pick.
- I think the Panthers need a good game from rookie FS Charles Godfrey. Good meaning no mistakes that lead to Cardinals scores and maybe a couple key pass break ups. He does well coming up to support the run but hopefully the Panthers will tell him not to focus on that. We need to make sure any WR going deep is double covered.
- RT Jeff Otah gets his first action against DT Darnell Dockett. I want to see Otah plow him 7 yards downfield like he did DT Tommie Harris. The Cardinals will focus on stopping the run and that's why the Panthers need to run the ball early, to destroy their will and determination. Getting an early lead by running the ball will fire up the home crowd.
It it also time for another roll call - playoff edition. Let us hear from you Panther fans, come out of the cyber-shadows and let your presence be known! Where are you from? Where are watching the game from?

About to go over to a friends house with a bunch of Panther fans to watch the game. Not sure if I’ll be on-line but if not…
Go Panthers!!!!
I blog the Carolina Panthers at www.catscratchreader.com
If the Panthers win the toss I bet they do not defer to the second half
They will take the ball.

I cannot wait
Guys like Smith, Peppers, Delhomme, and Beason should and likely will have big games including some key plays like a sack here (from Pep) and a long run (from Smith).
Oh and lets not forget about the biggest Panther of all (literally), Maake Kemoeatu. His presense should help both Johnson and Peppers get to Warner more easily.

I'm here (at least right now)
sitting in my room, where I’ll be watching the game.
I don’t know many other Panthers fans in Utah (in fact, I can’t think of one), so I’ll be alone.
Loving it in Redskin nation
Watching the game with friends in D.C. as the lone Panthers fan..but I actually think I like it that way. Especially the way we play this year!!!! GO PANTHERS!!!!!
Inactives
The Panthers deactivated WR D.J. Hackett, DT Darwin Walker, DTJ’Vonne Parker, LB Adam Seward, S Quinton Teal, WR Kenny Moore, C Mackenzy Bernardeau and third QB Matt Moore.
This game on the other hand...
if the Panthers make it to the SB, they’re going to have a very hard time running the ball.
Why do you say that?
If Baltimore reaches the SB, weren’t they team that got steam rolled by the Giants running attack? And while the Steelers defense is stout, they’re offense often times put their defense in tough positions so I’m not quite getting your logic.

The Ravens & Steelers D's
have both been really strong as of late.
Of course, I missed the first half of today’s game… maybe Chris Johnson was running better then LenDale. And I’d agree about the Steelers O, but that won’t really make it easier to run on their LBs.
Now if it’s the Chargers…
Inactives
Cardinals declared TE Ben Patrick, CB Eric Green, LB Victor Hobson, T Elliot Vallejo, T Brandon Keith, DT Alan Branch, and QB Brian St. Pierre inactive against the Panthers.
Fact!
FACT: the Panthers are 5-0 against the Cardinals all time, Arizona is 0-5 on the east coast this season, and Carolina is 8-0 at home. FACT: Cats eat birds 34-17.
All of their road wins came against divisional opponents
/Angry about Hasselbeck throwing an INT to lose the game.
PLAYOFFS?!
Neutral Party here
First game was a ton of fun to watch. I don’t think this one will be nearly as good, cause I think you guys will blow the Cards out. Either way, good luck.

Anyone else take secret joy
In watching Kerry Collins lose in the playoffs, wonder how is heart is now?!?!?!??!!?
As a LIFETIME panthers fan I can’t stand that guy!!!
I’m not saying I wish he woulda died when he was drinking and driving that night in charlotte, but I wouldn’t have been sad had he blown out a shoulder or knee and ended his career…
do other panther fans feel the same way or do they feel sorry for him because he was “sick”
Yeah, I've been everywhere today
I was on the Titan site too and the Colts site around the end. Really isn’t a better site than these SB Nation ones for finding good football discussion

I was kinda glad to see the Chargers beat the Colts… sick of hearing about how wonderful Peyton is. He doesn’t have a good playoff record.
oh j/k
they just said it!
and someone called it right, they didn’t defer!!!
He’s not the fastest but he sure picks his spots!!!

I still have a little faith in jarret
he came into the league way too early so im giving him a little longer to mature
As a Falcons fan...
I generally hate you guys. But tonight, I’m totally on your side. Go NFC South!
I’m in London, UK, and can’t follow the game, but best of luck to the Cats anyway.
Ok
WTF are the cards even doing in this game? Please, have your team destroy them from now on. I am really sick of them being treated like they actually belong in the playoffs.
u guys are gona pound it on them on this drive,, i know it

help the running game or passing game more?
I read somewhere recently that it helps receivers more b/c they know where they are going and can cut and CB’s cuts can’t keep up… bad for lucas and company…

This team is out of sync and I'm a little bit concerned.
Not enough running up the gut and not enough blitzing on Warner. Way too often he has enough time to stand in the pocket and make a play.
PLAYOFFS?!
I can't remember
the last time jake had a ball knocked down at the line, seemed like it didn’t happen many times this year…
Good protection
ST trying to screw it up again!
Need to force a TO here
field position (since that first drive) is killing us
plus, we aren’t stopping them at all

They have a better DC than us
probably doubling him or something.
Plus, DRC is a better CB (by a mile) than Lucas
It's more than the defensive playcalling that is sucking. How about the offensive playcalling?
PLAYOFFS?!
Just getting out-game planned
as turnovers have killed us. I love Jake but he’s let us down tonight. 3TD deficit? Too much to overcome against a fired up Cardinal team
I blog the Carolina Panthers at www.catscratchreader.com
Horrible game-planning, as you said
defensively & offensively.
They D’d up well on Smith, we can’t say the same about our D on Fitz.
They stopped our run on 1 drive (the one we started at like the 10), and we haven’t gone back since.
Missed the FG
finally something goes the Panthers way.
Sadly, it happened a couple of hours too late.
So...
this is over barring a miraculous comeback that would be one for the ages.
Do we root for someone now? Or just look ahead to the draft?
What the hell?
This is Revshawn stopping in for a moment. What a bunch of bull crap!
1. Why the hell is the offensive coordinator calling this bull crap? Passing plays on 1st, 2nd, and 3rd down? Have we forgotten what the hell got us to the playoffs in the first place? Bull shit!
2. Jake Delhomme! What the hell? Quit throwing the ball ten or twenty yards on every play into double coverage! Throw the screens! Throw it to someone close to you! Don’t throw it at a friggen defender!
3. DOUBLETEAM FRIGGEN LARRY! What the hell are they doing? He’s their entire offense! Every single play they’re throwing it to friggen Larry Fittz. It’s annoying as hell! Who came up with the bright idea to play zone coverage during this game? That’s all fine and good. But for gods sake, make sure he has two guys on him! Don’t let him get behind the defence!
4. Call more blitzes! Don’t overload the line, but get some pressure on Warner. He’s having a nap back there it’s taking so long.
This game is horrible….absolutely horrible. Mostly it’s the coaching staff that’s pissing me off, but for gods sake, we’re giving the game to them. 3 Bloody turnovers. Three! That’s the story of this game.
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
My thoughts...
1- Agreed. We went away from the run way too early.
2- Agreed. What else to say? Maybe a couple screens to Smith?
3- Agreed. This is the most frustrating (I think… they’re all bad). You know they’re going to throw it to him.
4- Agreed. We need to get pressure… just 1 sack (by Johnson) so far.
Turnovers… Agreed.
Jake.
Some of you might want to go and change your vote on my Ultimate Facebook Group fanpost poll.
Jaxon, Jake is your MVP? Come on man.
Some lighter news. We are down by 20. And we came back from down 17 last game, and we beat them by four. Do the math. Its possible.
Jamie, this has never happened before.
This is the first game this season that they’ve given the ball to Jake time and time again. The running game worked on the first possession. They gave the ball to Williams and he went for a 40 yard gain, then Stewart finished it off with a 10 yard gain.
Jake is good for 2nd and short and 3rd and short. Don’t give it to him like it’s a friggen West Coast offense! Bull!
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
That was different. The running game was stopped for whatever reason.
Jake was forced to throw on 3rd and long. This game they’re just throwing the ball on every single play. Did we even run the ball in the second half?
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
That said
it might be too late to go back to the run.
Down 20, and the Cards get the ball first.
The D really needs to step up here… the lack of TOs caused is going to kill us as well.
Agreed
We’ll definately need to pass more, but I would still call the run a bit even if just to start the 2nd Quarter.
We have to keep a balanced offense. We score here, get the ball back and score again, it’s a game.
To give Jake the ball again would be the worst thing we could do. He’d just chuck a prayer down the field.
I’d rather give Jake the ball in the 4th Quarter. That’s where he earns this money.
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
We still have to run the ball and keep a balanced offense though.
Even if we run just to start the 2nd Quarter, the worst thing we can do is give the ball to Jake and let him start throwing prayers.
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
That would be nice yes.
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
41 yds rushing on the 1st drive. 9 the rest of the 1st half
Why in the world did the Panthers decide to throw the ball? The Cardinals cannot stop the run, the Panthers are one the best running teams so run the ball and let the clock tick. Terrible game plan. Delhomme is not good in big games.
Great Statistic
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
I know....I said great because it underlines my point.
They got away from the run, and it cost them.
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
Dumb coordinators were being girlymen.
You know John Fox made a speech.
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
This is great!
They’re actually blitzing! This could be it! Cmon Williams!
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
Keep it up, Carolina
It’s only a matter of time before Warner starts throwing INTs and fumbling….
He's in a hurry to eat the cake.

This is BS....what the hell?
Now the defense is clicking on all cylanders and they keep giving the ball to fucking Jake.
At this point, they need to take him out of the game. Take him out!
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
Should have thrown it away...they had it covered
I blog the Carolina Panthers at www.catscratchreader.com
Good news though, the Cards are playing to lose
There is still a chance, but alas, a thin one.
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
Also must
-run the ball
-stop the Cards
-have Jake stop forcing throws
-get something big from special teams
Won't happen
Jake is off and they is no way Fox benches him.Defense is going to have to make a play to get the crowd back in it
I blog the Carolina Panthers at www.catscratchreader.com
Meanwhile Edge is trying to figure out what kind of shoes he wants to wear today.
I’m going to need some recovery time from this. Cmon Jake….
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
All 4 are Jakes fault too
3 INT’s and a fumble.
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
I feel like a cowboy fan...
couldn’t be any worse. Making the playoffs and not winning. False hope. Maybe I can get some work done now.
About time....
Two passes completed in a row…. we don’t need a bomb Jake. Keep playing it short. Look around in the pocket.
That's a heartbreaker
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
Disappointed but not suprised
This is not as much of a suprise as you think because despite the record there are many times during the year Fox has not had them ready and tonight is the culmination
Personally, I think we need
a DT (someone behind Kemo/Lewis would be huge, if nothing else)
a CB (Lucas needs to go)
a DE (if Peppers leaves, which is doubtful)
a OT (if Gross leaves, which seems more likely)
a QB (?… maybe wait till next year and hope for McCoy or Sanchez?)
a WR (please, no one from USC)
a OG (maybe, is Vincent the guy here?)
And I give up. A wasted season, I think it's time to explore other options
At QB. Delhomme has had surgery and he has been piss poor in the last 2 playoff games he has played in (the Seahawks game….heh heh), maybe they should look at Chase Daniel or Harrell.
PLAYOFFS?!
This game was over in the 2nd Quarter.
I blame the coaches tonight and I’ll blame the coaches in the morning. Equal blame to Jake Delhomme too, but the rest of the guys have done good.
Good god….
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
Behind defenders that Jake doesn't see
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
Ok, let's see.
Two touchdowns and two point conversions and a TD with an extra point. Overtime.

Congrats on knocking off Payton “I fold like a cheap tent” in the playoffs and the Colts.
Sorry Carolina fans...
This is painful. As an Eagle fan, I understand this.
Stupid center...
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
Enough is enough
put out the lights the party is over – hope its over for FOX and friends; time for a change at the top – this is embarassing
4 INT's
Jake you’ve got to be killing me. OMG, this is sooooo bad.

I thought Fox would be fired if Carolina bombed this year
He is still a good coach.
But this is easily one of the worst performances in playoff history.

At least Miami got beat by a good defense
Chad was picked off four times last week; at least they had the satisfaction knowing they were beated by a very good team and not out coached, out hustled and down right out played
TV is off guys. This game is over.
We had a good season. Tied our best for 12-4. Look forward for a good off-season coverage. That’s the part of the business I like the most.
I don’t blame John Fox at all. You can’t blame him for this. This is just Jake being Jake. He rebounded this team from 7-9 to the favored team to win the NFC. I say you keep Marty Hurney, keep John Fox, look for a replacement with the offensive coordinator. Maybe….if someone is out there that’s better, take him.
This is probably going to speed up our search for a new QB though. With Jake melting down like this, it’s just sad. Five turnovers and they’re all his fault. Jake lost this game for us. Jake, with all his 4th Quarter heroics has blown the Panthers playoff appearance.
By the way, I turned the TV back on.

sorry but i have to watch to the bitter end
no matter the pain..
I blog the Carolina Panthers at www.catscratchreader.com
Sorry - not just jake
Fox did not have this team ready – Jake was bad but the rest of the team was just as bad – KW just sat back there and played with the Carolina defense IF you want to call it a defense – sorry i put this one right on FOX and it is not the first time they were not ready just the most obvious
Four turnovers man.
Doesn’t help the defense at all.
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
The OC is in his first year, but went away from the run way too early today.
The DC needs to go… this has been horrible. I mean… Fitzgerald. That’s all.
Fox… I don’t know. But he really didn’t get the team up for this or anything.
Hurney… I still blame him for not getting us a better FS, and a better back-up QB, and more.
Delhomme… you’re seeing him in front of your eyes right now.
McNab
Hey if McNab has a bad day tomorrow Eagle fans will want him out of town and would take him in a minute
Don't forget Matt Cassel
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
McNabb isn't the problem
It’s the Walrus’ freaking playcalling.
I’m not convinced Cassel will be successful anywhere else. I think NE’s system is so strong, any QB will succeed.
No way Darren Sproles is 5’6". More like 5’4". He looks like a little kid out there.
Will they keep him and LT and can the two co-exist if healthy?
I don''t care what the record going into the playoffs is
The failure of this team tonight shows the record was a mirage – the team is no better than last year – they had some last minute heroics that inflated the record – the real Panthers stood up tonight and unfortunatley everyone in the country got a chance to see it is a house of pain
Bull....
This team is great. Jake is just having a bad game. No runs hardly at all in the 1st half, except for the first possession where coincidently we scored.

IF the Eagles get past the Gnats,
playing AZ is easier than playing Carolina. We should thank the Cards, I guess.
it doesn't hurt as much as it seems
just because most are team wasn’t bad our playcalling and delhomme were teh culprits here
plz
to run the ball everytime from here on out, no Delhomme, stewart and d-will in the backfield!
WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT PASS!!!!!!!1
Personally
I live in SLC. So no idea.
But I’m certain they were a ton more excited than they are now.
Defense has been playing great.
Only 3 points in the 2nd half.
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
Thank you!
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
I thought about that. Poor guy.
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
Sorry for us
I feel sorry for us as we are the ones who have a right to expect the team to care and they sure don’t seem to care tonight
They cared...
The coaches were almost as stupid in the first half as Jake Delhomme today.
Two guys I blame today. Jake Delhomme, and both coordinators in the 1st half.
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
Good luck. Go Chargers
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
Good luck, Charger fan...
You got some tough teams ahead of you.
Well, I guess we could put Matt Moore in
Give him some playoff experience.
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
Can anyone say Bill Cowher?
We need a change – this is same old same old
This division is not what everyone thought
Despite the love fest on tv think this proves that this division is a lot weaker than what people thought
Nah.
Just proves that our coaches can’t gameplan worth a sh!t.
Oh, and that the Cards are really excited to be in the playoffs.
that is the problem
the season was fake – if the Owner doesn’t realize that we will be sitting here next year looking at another bust – this team IS representative of last years 7 and 9 seasons
For all the good in the season
if you don’t win in the playoffs, the season means absolutely nothing.
I am ashamed of my Jake Delhomme Jersey
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
I'm debating throwing it in the trash or burning it.
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
How about Jacket
I am in NJ and I wore my Panther NFL Jacket yesterday to annoy the Giant fans – now I need to hide my head in shame
i’m big on the whole “loyalty” thing, but seriously… at some point, the decision makers have to see that it’s not working…
thanks to Fox & Delhomme for getting us to the SB, but we can’t keep them around for next 20 years in hopes of a repeat performance. At some point, you have to move on
Nature is mocking us
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
I know bad coaching
Am also a Buffalo Bills fan and trust me I know bad coaching and bad quarterbacking and this is classic bad
This isn't all Fox's fault...
He didn’t throw 5 INTs.
My point exactly
Get this. D-Williams 12 carries for 62 yards.
Why give him only 12 carries. This is insanity.
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
Two point conversion fail
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
I really don't think Fox should be getting the fire button all of a sudden.
But the season is over.
Sorry guys.
PLAYOFFS?!
I think he should
it’s over.
Thanks for a great run, but it obviously isn’t working. You, and your QB, and your DC & ST coach & maybe even OC…
But it is working.
He brought back our running game didn’t he? He brought the Panthers to the playoffs.
It isn’t his fault for Jake throwing a game. He literally blew this game. It’s his fault, and the coordinators fault for calling such stupid plays.
"Once again the trowsers of evil are yanked down by the mocking hands of justice!"-Revshawn
That was the new OC
and he went away from it after the first drive tonight.
And getting to playoffs means nothing when you’re the #2 seed and totally stink up the joint at home, going away from what worked, and letting the predictable offense (occasional run, lots of passes to Fitz) totally dismantle you.
THANKS ALL -
Nite all and thanks for helping make this livable – until next year and hopefully the Panthers will look a whole lot different – ENJOY THE REST OF THE PLAYOFFS and thanks again
Alright guys. Bye then.
It is a sad day, but hey you can’t win them all. I’ll see you all next year. Don’t be strangers. Come back to the blog often!

I tip my hat off to guys like Beason, Smith, and Chris Harris
EVERYONE else that was wearing a Panther jersey though, just WOW. Only those three kept playing (who cares about the score) for the whole 60 minutes.

And before everyone throws Delhomme under the bus
Was it just me or did the o-line struggle more than a couple times to pass block? I’m not saying Jake should get a pass on all the turnovers (6 in all, I know), but everyone player on a team is responsible for doing his job. Jake did do his poorly, but so did the offensive line and others on the team as well.

Yeah, the OL was bad
but most of the ints were on him.
Bad passes (the screen into triple coverage), bad decisions or just not seeing the D (the first one and more)…
More time for Delhomme would’ve been nice… I don’t know how he would’ve used it though.
Nah I saw a few that was Jake's fault
I don’t blame the fumble, but the other INT’s were all on him.
