Panthers go up 20-17 in 4th

Carolina took its first lead of the game, 20-17, on an 8-yard TD run from Jonathan Stewart followed by a two-point conversion pass from Jake Delhomme to Steve Smith.

Stewart's TD followed a huge break for Carolina: the Redskins muffed a very high Jason Baker punt and Carolina recovered at the Washington 12. The play was reviewed and it turned out that Washington CB Byron Westbrook had it hit off his foot -- he was pushed backward by Carolina S Quinton Teal.

Carolina took advantage immediately, running Stewart twice from the 12 for the TD. The crowd went nuts. The two-point play was nice, too -- Smith started wide and cut in on a slant pattern.

Even with a win over this hapless bunch this team still sucks. Could not have beaten any other team in the league today.

Great! Fox-Hurney-Delhomme will be given a reprieve and the "This is the start of the march to the playoffs" crowd will be out in force!
