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.
