Congradulations! From a Panther fan

by LittleKing on Dec 22, 2008 9:49 AM EST

Hey guys, stopping by from www.catscratchreader.com

Just wanted to stop by and publicly say congratulations to you guys for clinching a playoff spot. While I really dislike the Falcons, I am big enough to acknowledge what a great season and team you have put together. You guys even have a shot at the division title if we lose (worst to first is our division motto anyway, right?). I've been very impressed with the Falcons this season and I really do not look forward to seeing Matt Ryan and Michael Turner twice a year.

Anyway, I just want to say congratulations on your season and making the postseason. However, if we meet again, I still expect the Panthers to win. :)

Class post

I gotta say, seeing the performance your team put on last night really adds another level of appreciation for our victory over you guys in the Dome.

NFC South is a great division, and I love our I-85 rivalry.

Here’s hoping if we meet again this season, it’s down 85S. :)

Nice subtle shot

It won’t matter whether you beat us in the dome if y’all don’t pull of a win/we do/the Cowbodys do next week. Then we’ll be division champs are you all can wait until next year.

Oh snap

Ignore those previous two posts. My bad. Thought you were another Panthers fan. Color me stupid.

Any chance of you guys mailing one in against the Rams?

Come on, Division Crowns and bye weeks are over-rated. You’ll get to play the Cardinals first which is a sure W considering how poorly they are playing.

Congratulations, you guys are easily the the surprise team of the year.

Could happen

It has before. With the division still undecided, I doubt it though. Hoping we play the Cards personally, they looked like total crap against the Pats Sunday. Cheers!

I think the Cardinals would be an advantageous matchup for us for sure, but I really think the bye week would be HUGE not because of the bye itself, but because it would mean a home game at the Dome in the playoffs. We have been largely lights out at home this year so I think that would be really big to be able to play a playoff game in the ATL.

that sure would be nice to see find their explosiveness with an extra week off

Very classy

And much appreciated. Good luck to you guys, right up until we have to beat you!

I have to give credit too.

After all you guys have went through with your head coach jumping ship and Michael Vick fighting with dogs, to come out next year and have an awesome season isn’t something I’d ask of this team. Yet you guys did just that and pulled off a great comeback. You’re well into your rebuilding phrase, and I think with a few moves to get some good players you may just be able to make a Super Bowl run.

Oh wait. I forgot to say it.

Well done. If you guys were englishman, you will have earned your tea.

a compliment with a stab

“I think with a few moves to get some good players you may just be able to make a Super Bowl run”

I like that – I think that Carolina has been performing very well this season too… If only they had a good QB, then maybe they would be able to make a run for the SB too.

Ohhhhhhhh!

Burn. Just burn man. If Matty Ice is Michael Jordan, Delhomme is Pippen in his later years (when he played for the Blazers).

Thanks ... BUT

“I think with a few moves to get some good players you may just be able to make a Super Bowl run.”

Thanks for the kind thoughts. But I’m thinking we’re just as equipped as your boys to make that SB run this year. Last time I checked, we’re the ones who have won 4 of 5/are about to steal away the division title you wish you could have clenched weeks ago. But seriously, thanks …
