The Carolina Panthers have designated defensive tackle Louis Leonard to the injured reserve, ending his season. The Panthers acquired Leonard from the Cleveland Browns near the end of the preseason for a late-round 2010 draft pick. Leonard was having a solid game on Sunday before he went down on the Panthers last defensive snap of the game, fracturing his ankle.  Team doctors have said it is a clean break, but that Leonard ...

The Carolina Panthers suffered their second consecutive loss to open the 2009 season on Sunday, but did so in a manner that was far less depressing than their Week 1 debacle against Philadelphia.  The Atlanta Falcons, donning throwback uniforms from the 1966 season, beat the Panthers 28-10 in the Georgia Dome. The main issue for the Panthers on Sunday was their defense.  Falcons' quarterback Matt Ryan could likely get away with ...

ESPN.com is reporting that the Carolina Panthers have come to terms with free agent quarterback A.J. Feeley and have placed Josh McCown on injured reserve, ending his season. The Panthers reiterated Monday that Jake Delhomme was the team's starting quarterback despite his atrocious performance on Sunday afternoon.  Delhomme threw four interceptions and lost a fumble that was recovered for a touchdown in the Panthers' 38-10 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. McCown was hurt ...

The Carolina Panthers kicked off the 2009 season with a performance that rivaled their season-ending performance of a year ago. That's not a good thing.

Delhomme threw four interceptions and lost a fumble before being benched in the third quarter as the Panthers fell to the Philadelphia Eagles ...

The Carolina Panthers season could not have opened on a more disappointing note Sunday, as they were manhandled by the Philadelphia Eagles and saw the scoreboard read 38-10 at the end of the day. The Eagles' victory can be attributed mainly to the play of Jake Delhomme.  For the second straight meaningful game, Delhomme was painfully bad, throwing four interceptions and losing a fumble. Delhomme started out crisp on the ...

The Carolina Panthers will kick off the 2009 season on Sunday with a visit from the Philadelphia Eagles, last year's NFC runner-up. Both of these teams met a similar fate last year, falling to the Arizona Cardinals amidst their Cinderella-esque run to the Super Bowl.  The Panthers and Eagles both head into 2009 with high expectations—Philadelphia more because of its reputation and Carolina because of their 12-4 record a year ago. Success will ...

I'll open with the five words that made Bruce Buffer famous: "Let's get ready to rumble!" The wait is over, my friends.  Since the waning moments of the Pro Bowl in February (and for some, a month earlier) we have all been looking forward to the coming weekend with sad, puppy dog eyes. Seven months. Seven entire months of speculation, predictions, assessments of unproven players, rankings, and an endless search for relevant news ...
