yea, its not "allowed", but people are slow to get off a pile all the time when they want to run out a clock. just think back to every state game when they try to come back at the end of the game.

steve smith...sick....does he score again?

12/18/2005 2:38:07 PM

all that talk about steve smith being sick during the season finally coming true

12/18/2005 2:41:36 PM

that was remarkable foresight by the panthers to draft foster to take over for davis 4 years ago when we didnt even have davis 4 years ago

[Edited on December 18, 2005 at 2:41 PM. Reason : .]

12/18/2005 2:41:38 PM

so true...foster brings us the big play...davis brought us the big flop

12/18/2005 2:42:52 PM

hmm...that was a stupid call

12/18/2005 2:46:56 PM

why are they talking about drew carter like he is some awesome player?



ugh. maybe the defense can score more points

12/18/2005 2:48:49 PM

shoulda had at least a pick there. i said in the last game thread that spoon drops at least one pick a game, so theres his one for this game.

12/18/2005 2:53:04 PM

NC state

12/18/2005 2:53:39 PM

yes that was nearly a wolfpack play

12/18/2005 2:54:02 PM

12/18/2005 2:55:15 PM

man, i hate our play calling sometimes.


now its the part of the game where we run run run and let the other team back in

12/18/2005 2:59:25 PM

this crew, though still teh suq, is much better than Bill Maaaaaas and that sam rosen guy have been the past forever weeks

12/18/2005 3:00:21 PM

i havent even noticed that it was different people. smith often runs that little underneath route because its an easy pass and catch and he can usually turn it into a big play with his speed and elusiveness. he just didnt have enough separation there

[Edited on December 18, 2005 at 3:01 PM. Reason : big play = enough for a first down]

12/18/2005 3:01:30 PM

great, theres that foot injury creepin up again

12/18/2005 3:03:22 PM

ahaha, lucas laughing. knows he got jacked up

12/18/2005 3:04:19 PM

12/18/2005 3:04:27 PM

12/18/2005 3:05:32 PM

hehe...crazy saints cant even run a qb sneak right

12/18/2005 3:07:13 PM

there was a Charlotte.com/Charlotte Observer that criticized bill maas as master of the obvious in an article this past week, and maas called him about it, and it was funny because it was true

http://www.charlotte.com/mld/charlotte/sports/13410542.htm

Quote :

" IN MY OPINION / SCOTT FOWLER 'Master of obvious' a bit sensitive The e-mail showed up in my inbox at 2:50 a.m. Tuesday. Six hours later, I clicked on it twice. Bill Maas, the Fox-TV color analyst who has called the past four Carolina Panthers games, had written to me. And he was mad. I've never met Maas, nor talked to him until Wednesday. But I criticized him in a one-paragraph item on page 6C of Monday's Charlotte Observer after he analyzed the Carolina-Tampa Bay game Sunday. This was the paragraph, in its entirety: "How is it that Fox television assigns Sam Rosen and Bill Maas to every single Carolina Panthers game? Maas, one of TV's true masters of the obvious, offered a number of pearls of wisdom Sunday. My favorite was this one in the second quarter: 'Historically, in the NFL, the team leading at halftime goes on to win.' Wow! Tell us more!' " Maas titled his e-mail "Master of the obvious." He went on to point out four different times in the telecast where, he believed, he told viewers something they didn't know. (Example: Maas said he called out Will Witherspoon for missing a tackle on Cadillac Williams' first touchdown before replays showed it). And, Maas wrote, I would never criticize a well-known TV analyst like Dan Marino, Troy Aikman and Phil Simms the way I had criticized him. It was an interesting theory. I thought it was untrue. I had criticized Aikman in a milder way a few weeks before, jabbing him in print for calling Steve Smith "Stephen" throughout a Panthers telecast. I told Maas that when I replied to his e-mail Tuesday. I also invited him to do a telephone interview with me Wednesday. After all, Maas has visited many Carolina living rooms in the past month and quite likely will again soon. He thinks Fox will assign him to the Carolina-Atlanta game on Jan. 1. Maas is not broadcasting Carolina's next two games, however. To his credit, he accepted my interview offer. Maas, who lives in Kansas City, is a former 10-year NFL defensive lineman who made the Pro Bowl twice. He realizes most fans aren't familiar with his NFL career, though, and believes that occasionally hurts him. "Guys like Marino, Aikman and Simms -- they absolutely get a free pass sometimes," Maas said. "And I understand that. I'm OK with not being a household name. However, I know that if you're not a household name as a broadcaster, people will question you and take shots at you just because they can." Maas said he is greeted warmly every time he goes into NFL stadiums. "Every single game, coaches and referees love to see me," he said, "because I know the game, and I know the rules. I go to the referee's seminar every single year -- I'm the only analyst that does. And the coaches like to see me because they understand I talk their language." I told Maas there were some things I liked about his broadcast Sunday. (I carry a small portable TV into NFL stadium press boxes so I can hear the game's TV broadcast as well as watch it live). I liked his pun during the fourth quarter. After yet another unsuccessful Panthers play, some Carolina fans booed. Said Maas: "I thought they cut off booze after the third quarter!" But I believe Maas also talks way too much, and I told him this. During the past four weeks, I've sometimes wanted to make like Roberto Duran and scream "No mas!" "If you don't talk," Maas responded, "what's the sense of having an analyst?" OK, Mr. Analyst. Will Carolina make the Super Bowl? "I think they have the capability," Maas said. "But I'm always worried about a team that has a bipolar look about them." A "bipolar" look? Now that's pretty good -- wish I'd thought of it. Maybe I'll give this Maas guy one more chance."

I'm just saying, you guys are welcome.

Whenever I've bet on the Panthers, they've covered, save one time this season.
