NFC playoff game: Cardinals at the Panthers (UPDATE: PANTHERS LOSE 33-13)
Today’s a big day here in Charlotte, NC as our Cats prepare to take on the Arizona Cardinals to decide which team will be one of two teams playing next week in the NFC championship game. Whoever wins this game will play whoever wins the Eagles at Giants game, which will be played tomorrow at 1 pm.
Lots of nailbiting going on around town, but the guys have looked and sounded confident this week going into tonight’s game, so hopes are high.
It’s currently 55 degrees here and it is supposed to get down to 47. The weather forecasters are saying we have a 90% chance of rain tonight, so it’s likely to be drizzling to pouring during the game, or shortly thereafter.
Game time is 8:15 ET and it will be broadcast on Fox. I’ll be out tonight watching the game with some friends – will check back in later.
Sunday AM Update: Jake Delhomme choked last night. He threw five interceptions, had the ball stolen from him once … you can’t win when things like that happen. The first half was a rout, and the Cards capitalized on all their opportunities, and had excellent field position on several drives. Our defense got it together in the 2nd half but the offense never found a rhythm and as a result, we lost 33-13 in a game that will go down as one of the biggest nightmares – not to mention embarassments – in Panthers history.
Delhomme will assume the “most hated man” status for a while in this city, but you almost feel sorry for him. He’s one of the most intense players on our team, and without him last season, we stunk. He had an impressive year this year after coming back from elbow surgery, but in the end picked the wrong game to have his worst of the season.
The Cards will go on to play the winner of the Eagles/Giants game, which should be a good one. It starts at 1 ET and will be broadcast on Fox.

Right now, just before the half, they’re playing like toothless old cats. ST, I think it’s time you grabbed the headset from Coach Fox and started calling a real game.
(Hey, the Cards are my divisional rivals. I want to see them crushed, crushed!
)
….Panters lookin’ like they’re in real need of some catnip!
I am so sorry Dear…. it is just about over and I cannot believe this. – Lorica
I cannot believe what I’m seeing.
The Arizona Cardinals?!?!?!?
That was brutal to sit thru…. I think I have to take some pepto and cry myself to sleep – Lorica
I figured if the Giants lost at least I’d have the Panthers to root for. It’s gonna be a freakin Cardinals/Ravens Superbowl!! ZZZZZZZZZZZZ
LOL
the Superbowl is going to be very fowl NC??? 
– Lorica
At least they didn’t choke like the Titans. Three turnovers in the Red Zone. Jeez.
Sorry Giants fans….A very sad day for you all. Yet again the QB was just not doing very well from what I saw. – Lorica
( Imagine the tune of taps playing in the background!!)
SADDDDDDDD day today all around. Lorica… LOL you make me laugh the superbowl is going to be fowl!!
I think Eli and Jake went partying together. They looked just alike!! Sickening!
Well, the Giants sucked a big one. Enough said.
When does baseball season start????
Manning and Delhomme will both get the criticisms, and to a certain extent they are warranted. However, Delhomme has taken the Panthers a very long way and deserves that credit. Manning won the Super Bowl last year and brought NY a long awaited Super Bowl championship. Both quarterbacks deserve credit for what they’ve done for their teams, as well as the criticism that comes with the job.
Bottom line, both these quarterbacks had one of their worst games at the worst possible times. It happens.
