Wildcard Weekend Preview: Seattle at Minnesota

Wildcard Weekend Preview: Seattle at Minnesota

A Sunday without Panthers football is just the worst kind of Sunday, but this Sunday at least we can take solace in that the only reason we aren't playing is because we were so good we earned the bye. Even though the lights will be turned off at the Bank of America stadium this weekend, we, the fans will be tuned in to the NFC games especially with rapt attention. The outcome of the two games this Sunday, of course, defines who visits Charlotte next week for the divisional round showdown.

Carolina Panthers Advent Calendar: December 24

Carolina Panthers Advent Calendar: December 24

A little over three weeks ago, I decided to start this series of articles for our advent calendar. Over the last 23 days we've revisited some of the highest highs and some of our lowest lows. We've looked back through some outstanding draft picks and remembered some busts. All in all, I have thoroughly enjoyed reminiscing days gone by, and I hope you have enjoyed reading them. Like any normal advent calendar though, Christmas eve is the last day with a chocolate, so I'm afraid this will be the finale.

Carolina Panthers Advent Calendar: December 16

Carolina Panthers Advent Calendar: December 16

I'm going to take a break from the norm today, and use today to remind ourselves of not one, not two, but three Panthers to wear number 16. Each one has had varying levels of success and notoriety wearing the black and blue, and I thought all of them were worth a quick mention. Each have set records, and not all of them were good. Here we go.

Carolina Panthers Advent: December 8th

Carolina Panthers Advent: December 8th

We've reached day 8 of December already, where does this time go? So I guess you know the drill by now, that means day 8 of our advent calendar. Like most of these low numbers, the players that have worn them are few and far between, and within the ones that have there is precious little to write about. David Carr is the most notable former Panther to don the 8 jersey, but considering I've covered Cam Newton and Jimmy Clausen already I'll pass on the quarterbacks for a little bit.

Carolina Panthers Advent Calendar: December 3rd

Carolina Panthers Advent Calendar: December 3rd

You may have to grant me a little artistic license for what's behind door number three of your Carolina Panthers Advent Calendar. Going by jersey number alone obviously limits my options to Quarterbacks, Kickers, and Punters until the 10th. We've already seen one good and one bad quarterback, and the list of our number 3's is hardly inspiring.

Panthers Divisional Stretch Begins: Saints Up First

Panthers Divisional Stretch Begins: Saints Up First

At this time last season, the Panthers were entering week 13 at 3-8-1, and yet somehow still in the hunt for the division crown. Now a year later, the Panthers have reeled off an NFL record tying 15 consecutive regular season wins, and this week they will face the division team they got this monster rolling with, the New Orleans Saints.

Carolina Panthers Advent Calendar: 12-1

Carolina Panthers Advent Calendar: 12-1

So it's finally December, which for me, means I must finally admit that it is in fact nearly Christmas. But this Christmas is different. This time last year we were poised at 3-8-1 coming off the back of dix straight losses and a thumping from Minnesota where they returned two blocked punts for touchdowns. Not this year. Now we stand proudly alone atop the NFL as the last team standing undefeated. 11-0. Just let that sink it some more - great isn't it?
