Your Carolina Panthers

Nice win for the team yesterday. Major props to the offensive line for holding up after the huge, huge loss of Jordan Gross. Our running backs are so very special and our receiving corps looked great yesterday. Dwayne Jarrett looked great fighting for that first down early in the game. I think he still has a chance to be a really good NFL receiver. I think it'll happen. Our defense was a little too weak against the run. If Turner hadn't gotten hurt we may not have won yesterday.

Jake Delhomme looked great in the first half. He was making quick decisions and threw accurately. That seemed to go away in the second half. I'm still not sold on Jake. He looked really shaky in the 4th quarter. He wasn't Bad Jake but he was Shaky Jake. I still think he should have been benched earlier this year and forced to fight for his job. If he plays like he did yesterday our team can still be successful. I think we'd be more successful with someone else but he's here to stay for the rest of this year as long as he doesn't have a total melt down.

I think we can win our next three games and go into New England in the middle of December with a 7-5 record. How would that be for a gut check?
