Maybe people will believe my Panthers are for real now...?

Wow - total domination of two teams who were supposedly better than them (according to the pundits for most of the season and playoffs).

 

And, sorry, Luke, but I did revel in not seeing that hoodie in another SuperBowl :).

Sorry I don't think you can call the game against the Hawks total domination by any long shot.  Yeah the Kittens scored big and scored early, but they weren't able to do anything the entire second half.  The hawks left points on the field that would have caused that game to have a completely different outcome.  It's fine to be happy with your win's, but also recognize the fact that they played fairly lousy against the Hawks even though the final score doesn't reflect that.

They didn't do anything in the second half because they didn't need to ;).  With a 31pt halftime lead (not sure how that isn't total domination) they made (a poor) decision to just sit on that lead.  They got too conservative.  It could have bitten them, but it didn't.

 

In almost the exact same situation against the Cards, they didn't do that.  They continued to play and built their lead instead.

 

The Seahawks are a very good team (I think the second best in the NFC and, therefore, the league).  But they were definitely man-handled on that day.

Go Panthers! Ebr, I am a fellow (although not there now) North Carolinian. I grew up near the Coast and moved away in 2004, now living in Florida. BUT, I never lost my love of the Panthers. I am so happy to see them going to the Super Bowl this year. 

 

I think now almost every kid in Charlotte has a football now...

They did everything they needed to do in the 1st half so they could rest in the second half to be ready for the final NFC Championship game. :D  Either way, they are going to the Super Bowl. ;)

Well, my Panthers were dominated by a truly great defense - and I think their inexperience with that stage showed.  They just looked a little shell-shocked right from the get-go.

 

Congratulations to the Broncos and especially to Peyton.  I hope he decides to go out on top like Elway did.

I don't think they choked. The Denver defense was just too fast for them. They'll have more chances to return with that group though.
