Carolina just got its second John Kasay field goal of the game with 14:21 to go, but the Panthers still haven't dented the end zone in this entire game.
Miami leads 14-6, meaning Carolina is within a score and a two-point conversion of tying. That may be a tall order for an offense that has been having problems all game with the notable exception of running back DeAngelo Williams, who once again has more than 100 yards rushing.
The Panthers had a shot at scoring in what turned out to be a scoreless third quarter, but Jake Delhomme ended that threat by underthrowing Steve Smith inside the Panther 10 and getting intercepted. It was Delhomme's 14th interception of the season but his first in four games.
On the drive that netted the Panther field goal, Carolina had a first-and-goal at Miami's 8. But a Jonathan Stewart run, an incompletion (Jeff King was open, but Delhomme had Joey Porter wrapped around him again while throwing) and a sack meant Kasay had to trot out for another FG.

What a pathetic showing by the offense. You make great plays running the ball, then get in the red zone and DelHomme has an interception, overthrows, or gets sacked. Why not try to keep running the d*mn ball!! DelHomme can't pass anymore.
Delhomme, whom "jack" says can't pass just threw a great TD pass to Steve Smith. Then the defense lets Miami go down and score a TD.
I guess that was Jake's fault too, huh?
hey chuck. are you blind? jake CAN'T pass. that pass was behind smith. and maybe the defense wouldn't be in such a bad situation if jake could freakin complete a pass to someone wearing the same color jersey
Jake needs to be SHOT!
THANKS J A K E!
For Nuttin'
It was clear that the Panthers missed Jordan Gross in this game. They couldn't pass protect when they needed to most and ultimately the shortcomings in the redzone were exactly what did them in. And they also couldn't get any pressure on Henne when they needed to. On 3rd and 12, when they had to make a stop, they give Henne damn near 10 seconds and he finds Bess for the 1st down.
I've never seen a team that's consistently bad at home when they are so call on the "big stage". Fox and his team always fall flat!! Jeff Davidson called a terrible game. You would think common sense would tell you after the first 2 sacks on 3rd and long that you would put Jake in the shotgun to at least give him another second or two to mess up. The Panthers have absolutely wasted two games at home this season...Buffalo now Miami. The season is a wrap!!!
fire every da*m coach for that pathetic game plan. pound the ball into the red zone with double trouble and then........put the game in jake's hand???? i can't believe what I just witnessed. 42 passes? 42??? If DeAngelo doesn't get at least 25 touches a game, we might as well just not show up because we wasting our best player. oh, and STOP PUTTING IN STEWART INSIDE THE 10 YARDLINE BECAUSE HE CAN'T BREAK THE LOS!!!
Jeff Davidson stills thinks he out of fox opponents with play calling. 1) He doesn't understanding that he play calling is limited by your offense abilities. 2) He doesn't seem really get good he running back truly are. 3) He figured that his offensive can wear out a defensive by the 4th if he would just pound the ball. It seems that Fox, Davidson, and Delhomme will all be gone next year....
I'm so sick of the "good year, bad year" cycle under Fox/Hurney. I'm sick of the ULTRA-conservative play calling (until the end of the game and they are losing). For the first time since Fox has been head coach, I honestly hope for a new regime after this season.

What a pathetic showing by the fans. The game went down to the last play in front of about 5000 fans! The 50,000 that left early are the losers, NOT the Panthers!
Fire ~ it is what it is - FoX
They should have let the D. Williams run the ball more? I mean they should reward the guy with the chance to get a touchdown? Bad bad coaching. I hope D. Williams and Steve Smith get off this sorry team and go to a team where their talents can be fully reached.
Bad QB. Bad Coaching staff. Terrible ownership. But hey! At least the Ownership has class. BE damned those wins!!!
End of Line.
Jake - stick with Bojangles, get away from the Panthers.
Steve Smith, Deangelo Williams you deserve so much better.
hey, Scott....how about someone who covers the Panthers acutally does there job....and finally calls Fox out for his poor coaching. Everyone that "covers" the Panthers does a sad job. You are suppose to be unbiased...the local media refuses to address what has trashed this season. COACHING.
Dear Santa. I've been very good this year and I ask only one thing of you. BILL COWHER. Signed, Disgruntled Panthers Fan.
Coaches must be doing something other than watching what's really going on out on the field. They must be so proud of the GOOD JOB they're doing!!!
Tonight's game reminded me of a game in the 2003 season when a veteran QB (Rodney Peete) was the Panthers best bet to win and a bench-warmer (Jake) came in to lead the rest of the season.
Ummm, wonder if there's anyone on the bench this year to help resurrect this team? And if NOT, WHY?!
Without Davis (LB), there was no chance we could stop Miami's running game; even without Brown.
On the onsides kick, does this kicker ever practice those kicks? He kicked it right to the other team. Most kickers top the ball so it pops up after the first bounce.
Come on, it not like he has much to do during practice.
42 passes and Double-Touble 25 carries... what the heck? Did Jeff Davidson forget about the first 3 games???
Horrible offensive play calling... again. Thanks to Jeff, I can forget about football until next season...
Playoffs are well out of the picture now. If Matt Moore is the QB of the future?, start him the rest of the season!!! Jake is f'ing done!! Stick a fork in em! He should get tired week in and week out getting showed up by the opposing QB! Take notes dummy on how to read defense's, how to scramble, accuracy, etc. Lets clean the Panthers up Big Cat!!!! At this rate,we'll be the browns in a few years.
