Panthers - Team History
Carolina Panthers, professional football team and one of five teams
in the Western Division of the National Football Conference (NFC)
of the National Football League (NFL). Under the league’s realignment
plan, which will take affect in 2002, the Panthers will play in the
South Division of the NFC. The Panthers play at Ericsson Stadium in
Charlotte, North Carolina, and wear uniforms of black, blue, and silver.
During the 1996 season
the Panthers won their division and qualified for the playoffs.
It was only their second year of existence, and this was the earliest
an NFL expansion team had ever encountered such success. During
the previous year, the team won seven games—the most ever
by an NFL expansion team.
In 1993 Panthers founder
and owner Jerry Richardson was awarded the first new NFL franchise
since 1976, when the Seattle Seahawks and Tampa Bay Buccaneers had
joined the league. Two years later, Carolina and fellow expansion
team Jacksonville Jaguars began play. Former Pittsburgh Steelers
assistant coach Dom Capers was named the Panthers’ first head
coach.
After losing the first
5 games of the 1995 season, Carolina won 7 of its last 11 games
behind wide receivers Mark Carrier and Willie Green. During the
season the Panthers defeated the San Francisco 49ers to become the
first expansion team ever to beat a defending league champion.
In 1996 the Panthers
stunned the NFL by winning 12 games and capturing the NFC Western
Division title. Quarterback Kerry Collins and running back Anthony
Johnson anchored the offense. Carolina put together the second-best
defense in the NFC, featuring three Pro Bowl linebackers: Kevin
Greene, Lamar Lathon, and Sam Mills. Michael Bates was the league’s
top kickoff returner, averaging 30.2 yards per return. Placekicker
John Kasay led the league in scoring, converting on a league-record
37 field goals. Capers was named coach of the year. After capturing
the division title, Carolina defeated the Dallas Cowboys in the
playoffs before losing the NFC Championship Game to the eventual
Super Bowl champions, the Green Bay Packers.
The franchise experienced
its worst year ever in 2001 when it went 1-15 and lost 15 consecutive
games, an NFL record. A turnaround came quickly, however. In 2003,
under head coach John Fox, the team finished the regular season
11-5 and qualified for the playoffs as the winner of the NFC’s
South Division. During the regular season and in the playoffs, the
Panthers won several come-from-behind games. They advanced to Super
Bowl XXXVIII and appeared on the verge of another comeback when
they tied the New England Patriots with about one minute left to
play. The Patriots kicked a field goal with about four seconds left
and won the game in one of the most dramatic finishes in Super Bowl
history.
2004 Super Bowl XXXVIII
Lost to New England Patriots, 32-29

Panthers Team Report (Yahoo! Sports)<p><p>Second-year wide receiver Dwayne Jarrett did his best to dismiss any rift between him and three-time Pro Bowler Steve Smith.</p>
<p>Last year, Smith called out Jarrett, then a rookie, during an open locker-room session. While conducting an interview at his locker with two local beat reporters, Smith interrupted and told Jarrett he should spend more time in the film room instead of talking to reporters.</p> <p>It was an embarrassing incident for Jarrett, who was having trouble producing on the field.</p> <p>He finished last year with just six catches.</p> <p>On Monday, after pleading guilty to DWI charges, Jarrett said the much-publicized incident led to some differences between him and Smith, a three-time Pro Bowler, but that now they're on the same page.</p> <p>"Steve handled...

Panthers contemplate keeping Englishman Rhys Lloyd (AP)There is plenty that differentiates Rhys Lloyd from his Carolina Panthers' teammates, ranging from his wild mop of hair, to his giant calves, his English accent and his ability to analyze international soccer. Lloyd's title also is something new for Carolina: kickoff specialist. But after seeing kickoffs routinely land at the 15-yard line or out of bounds last season, and after Lloyd's impressive...
