We practically have the same core players, we were decimated by injuries last year at the beginning of the 2004 which short-circuited our season early but we rebounded late in the end and fell one game short of the playoffs.
This off-season the Panthers FO hasnt basically through FA and the draft filled every weakness we had comming into the season.
This team is more complete on paper than the one that made it the Superbowl in 2003. One of the few question-marks we had after loosing Moose was depth at the WR position.
Which has been answered now with the aquisition of Gardner he also brings a big, physical presence to complement speedster Smith and Colbert we lacked after Moose's departure.
We just need him to be Moose-like no-ones asking him to put up Moose numbers we have Steve Smith back for that. He's just another big target for Jake and another weapon for the Panthers SUPERBOWL run.
Thanks, for another one guys!!!

Don't thank us just yet. If anything thank Steve Spurrier for getting one good year out of Stephen Davis, and having him eat up cap room for the next couple of years. I do think you have an awesome playmaker in Steve Smith and another on Defense with Julius Peppers, but the one thing you dont have is Joe Gibbs. As a matter of fact, the one coach that Fox admires most is Joe Gibbs, (Im quoting SI after you guys went to the SB) but he is not as good as the man himself.
By the way... you shouldn't wander too far, we may have more to discuss after the season... I'm thinking I will be thanking you as your team once again rummages through our discards and tries to make treasure from our trash. Oh and how's that Jessie Armstead thing working out for ya?
