"Redemption!"

DeAngelo Williams proved once again he wants to be the leagues MVP. He played outstanding all day, eluding defenders up and down the field. He gained his 5000th career yard during this game and just keeps racking up the numbers. He is on pace to break the touchdown, and season yards game. Clausen also played well finding free agent pickup Byrd for a 12 yard strike in the endzone. Gamble pickd off two balls putting him as the league leader in picks.

"Ravens Defeat Panthers in OT."

With a minute and 25 seconds left the Ravens took a 7 point lead on a 22 yard run from Willis McGahee. With only 5 seconds left the Panthers came back to score with a 17 yard laser to Steve Smith. It came down to Overtime. The Panthers stopped the Ravens on their first drive forcing them to punt. On the return, Captain Munnerlyn was stripped of the ball and Le'Ron McClain picked it up to rumble 11 yards into the endzone for the win. Look for the Panthers to recover next week with a good performance.

"Gamble Ties Record Again"

Some how once again Chris Gamble creates 4 turnovers in another record tying performance. He tied the record again by taking 4 drives to a stuttering hault. His ball hawking ability helped the Panthers to roll the Browns. On a bad note however, DE Charles Johnson who has been playing great ball is injured for an unknown period of time.

"Clausen's Breakout"

Jimmy Clausen had a breakout game finding the endzone 4 times this game. However no touchdowns went to his favorite target Steve Smith, Clausen found ways to get playmakers like Armanti Edwards involved. The game was capped off by a 51 yard fumble return for a touchdown from captain Jon Beason. The fumble was caused when Everette Brown missed a tackle setting up Deion Butler for a massive hit from strong safety Charles Godfrey

Injury Report

Thomas Davis, Broken Ankle. Out for Season

John Henderson, Broken Collarbone. Out 8 Weeks

​

 

[dMerch]

"Henderson out, replacement unclear."

John Henderson's broken collarbone poses many problems for the Panthers. It is unclear who the replacement will be for the remainder of the season. Possible Replacements include Tank Tyler, Louis Leonard, and Nick Hayden. Tyler being the favorite, was the starter until Henderson joined Carolina in the trade from Oakland. One thing is for sure, the Panthers will miss the big man in the middle.

​

Possible Replacement Stats:
[table="head;sort=3d;autonumtitle=rank;width=15em"]Name|Age|Tackles
Tank Tyler|25|7
Louis Leonard|26|1

"Panthers Win Defensive Struggle"

In the first meeting between these two teams this year, it was a defensive struggle on both sides. With only one touchdown the entire game, it was about out-lasting the opponent. The Panthers defense game up big holding Atlanta to only 133 total yards of offense. The play of the game was Marshall big hit in the open causing a fumble that he also recovered.

"DEFENSE!"

The game was fairly even until the 4th quarter, where the Panthers scored on two defensive Interceptions and one short yardage situation set up by an interception. Before that however, it was a game of hard hits and explosive runs. The play of Mendenhall and Moore gave the Panthers more trouble than they have seen all season.
