Panthers did not play that badly, the Seahawks defense played awesomely. I thought they did a superb job containing and frustrating Steve Smith all game as well as pressuring Jake all game, three picks aren't going to help either. Losing Goings so early sure didn't help either, can't use the run to set up the pass without a RB with some reps under their belt. I always felt the one weakness Carolina had was that after Smith there was quite a huge drop in receivers which sort of made them one dimensional, a deficit I am sure will be addressed next season.
Watching Seattle all season I realized what most didn't; they have a very well balanced and unified team. The defense was overshadowed by our amazing offense, but has shown constantly that even though it bends, it very rarely breaks. And how about Alexander, FINALLY doing something in the postseason. Almost like he feels it might affect his contract negotiations....
That being said, WE ARE ON OUR WAY TO SUPERBOWL 40!!!!!!! First time in team history after years of living up to that two decade old mediocre label. I honestly don't know who will win that game, both teams are darn good.

I really don't care for the Steelers so i'm pulling for the Seahawks but HOW can you say we DID NOT play like total sh*t compared to all other games agaisnst great offense/defense?? Having Foster, Peppers, Morgan and Goings out didn't help but we played unexcusably bad. I am proud how far they came this season but they did not play to their potential and deserved to lose...

Carolina played like what they were; a team with a severely crippled running game which allowed the Seattle defense to keep at least two guys on Smith all game. Once Seattle got into the Carolina offenses head what started as a leak turned into a mudslide. I think that we got to see one of the 'intangibles' that the sports media likes to talk about, psychologically the Panthers were beat by the time the third quarter was over. Perhaps they listened to a media that believed that the Seahawks defense was a weak and therefore didn't think they could come up with a plan to stop their offense, I don't know. I believe that your Panthers will be a force to be reckoned with next season without a doubt as most of the core will be returning.
I laugh because the media IS still disrespecting Seattle AND the NFC in general; a foolish thing to do. I respect the heck out of Pittsburg and personally think it will be a battle, but I think the media is once again overlooking the little points that made this Seahawks team the number one NFC team almost the whole season. Our offensive line has been together for a few years and work extremely well together, MVP is the reward. We have no real superstars on our team other than the MVP, Hasselback, and jones, but they don't need any. Tim Ruskell has built a team, emphasis on TEAM. They respect each other, work well together, and trust each other. Defensive players aren't leaving their assigned places to try and make ESPN's highlight reel, which takes away many of those reverses teams try on less disciplined teams. On offense there are multiple threats that must be respected, none that warrant double coverage, but none should be ignored. Having such a gifted running back like Alexander doesn't hurt either...
Personally I think Carolina has/had most of these things, except for the multiple offensive threats which was their downfall. Proehl and Carter and good receivers, but Jake was so used to either handing off or throwing to Smith that when those two were negated he started to panic.

yep~it's like when Kasey fouled up the kick in the superbowl (that hurt), it was ragged on forever and all the radio, tv, etc. is about Delholme and the injured players...I just wanted to see a good game~not a joke. There should have been a totally different game plan like after Chicage got a laugh at that same type of playing with our key players in the game (awful)..no ones dogging on Seattle here though...i'm pulling for them.
