There was progress

And guess what? We won!!! Granted it was against a team that completely self destructed and handed us the game in the 4th quarter(what's that word again...ya choke), there was still tremendous progress in all 3 phases. The defense played their a$$ess off and special teams looked good. What can I say about the only original panther on this roster John Kasay? There were missed tackles here and there and I think they have to be corrected. We got two interceptions after having none all year. And the beast finally awoke as he saved our asses by blocking a a field gial that would have been a nail in out coffin. Peppers saved the game and Kasay(being mobbed by teammates in the pic) won it.

David Carr looked more comfortable than last week. He also has helped shed his pretty boy image by getting back in the game after a possible career ending hit, and then and leading us to an improbable win. This was an ugly win, but it was not as undeserved as the Atlanta game a couple fo weeks back. There was progress. There was effort. Great work. Here is what David Carr said after the game, and I hope that will hold true.

"I've never been in a football game like that before. It was phenomenal. ... I was going up to all the defensive guys afterward thanking them for stopping them (after his interception). It was like my life was out there on the line. ... They were saying that was the kind of feeling they had in '03, when they were going on that (Super Bowl) run. Once that starts happening, man, a football team can be pretty dangerous."
