Below my first post on Cat Scratch Reader , D-Ranged1 laid down the first comment, and it went a 'lil sumthin' like this... "Here’s to hoping we complete the rest of the season injury-free and come back next year on track." Yeah, injuries have plagued us all season. No matter how much we hate them, they're still a part of the game. And when they do knock us down, we gotta deal with...

I'm going to be honest; my weekly mojo is all thrown off. The Thursday night game turned Friday into Monday where I was optimistic, as a result Sunday became hump day in my mind and while other teams were playing I was trying to prognosticate; it's been difficult. Now, I don't know if Wednesday counts as a hump day. With a majority of the working world getting a Thanksgiving Holiday, and a lot of people...

Somehow, I get the feeling that with the injury to Thomas Davis it's going to take a pretty big bite out of a potent Panther defense. When we look back on this season 10 years from now, what are we going to remember it as? For myself, I'll remember this season as a season that could have led to a deep playoff run and maybe even a Super Bowl, but instead became the biggest letdown in franchise history....

This was the breakout year the Panthers had been waiting to see from Thomas Davis ever since they picked in the first round of the 2005 NFL draft. Finally comfortable at the linebacker position and clearly an excellent fit for the new scheme installed by defensive coordinator Ron Meeks, Davis was playing fast and free this season.
