Looking to the future, garnering some hope? - (12/18)

Since John Fox came in as head coach in 2002, the Panthers have jumped back and forth between making and missing the playoffs.

Rookie QB sparks Panthers in strongest showing of season (AP) - (12/17)

They lost Jake Delhomme in Week 3. David Carr got hurt, then was so ineffective he was benched. Vinny Testaverde was OK, until his 44-year-old body broke down. Apparently, quarterback No. 4 is the charm for the Carolina Panthers.

Rookie Moore leads Panthers to stunning win over Seahawks, 13-10 (AP) - (12/16)

Carolina Panthers rookie quarterback Matt Moore got into the huddle late in the first half Sunday and froze. "I just couldn't get the play out of my mouth," Moore said. "Guys were like, 'Come on!

Why not start DeAngelo Williams? - (12/12)

Random observations: -- It's not going to solve all the offensive problems, but why not start DeAngelo Williams and give him 15 to 20 carries a game for the last three weeks? DeShaun Foster's already shown he's not a true...

After Carolina's defense was on the field for nearly 40 minutes during Sunday's loss at Jacksonville, Panthers safety Chris Harris was asked about the team's offensive woes.

Jags punish Panthers - (12/09)

The fewest points of any team in the NFL this Sunday (or Thursday, and probably Monday, too).  Embarrassing. The first half looked promising.

Vinny [...]

Bridges out - (12/09)

Bit of a surprise. Jeremy Bridges, who has been the starting right guard since Week 3, has been declared inactive for today's game. Bridges woke up this morning bothered by an abscessed tooth. That likely means second-year pro Geoff Hangartner...
