This is what Championship teams do

Somehow pull out games they struggled in...

Sorensen: Panthers full of comebacks

In My Opinion


Along with winning at home, here’s what else the Carolina Panthers are doing differently in 2008. They’re coming back.

The biggest deficit the Panthers have ever overcome is 17. They did it twice, against Jacksonville in 2003 and against San Francisco in 2004.

The second biggest deficit the Panthers have overcome to win is 14. The Panthers did that just once before this season, in 1995 against Atlanta.

Jon Beason: Beauty of 'The Beast'
Panthers' linebacker's ferocity and skill envelope the field, but his gentle nature prevails off it

Watch any Carolina Panthers game nowadays and it is impossible to miss Jon “The Beast” Beason.

At age 23, the Panthers' middle linebacker has turned into a defensive star in his second NFL season.

His sideline-to-sideline speed, coupled with an uncommon maturity and a superb work ethic, have made No.52 a Pro Bowl caliber linebacker and the soul of the Panthers' defense.

The Domination

More to come. What we did to the Chiefs was a felony in 48 States except Missouri and probably Kansas. Outstanding effort. We need to get ready for Tampa next week.

PANTHERS 34, CHIEFS 0

It would be easy to explain away Carolina's 34-0 drubbing of Kansas City on Sunday by saying the Chiefs are merely a bad team - one of the NFL's worst.

But that would miss the point that this was precisely the kind of annihilation the Panthers didn't seem capable of the past two seasons when they compiled a disappointing 15-17 record.

Good teams playing at home should put a whipping on inferior opponents, and the Panthers did it in a big way Sunday.

This was a blowout of optimum proportions.

It was the most lopsided win in Carolina history. Kansas City was held to its lowest yardage total (127) in 22 years.

Great Win...

Let's keep it going baby :-). Jake getting NFC offensive player of the week is nice too. NFC South cleaned out the NFC awards this week. Good stuff man. It's official. Jake's arm is fine.
