Carolina Panthers defeat St. Louis Rams

The Carolina Panthers shut down the St. Louis Rams this weekend at Bank of America Stadium by a score of 15-0 in front of 66,310 fans. The Panthers won’t be home again until December 10 when they take on the New York Giants. Carolina Panthers Tickets are selling for that game for anywhere from $125 to $1,000.

While the offense scored all the points they needed, you have to hand this one to the defense. The Panthers held the Rams to a dismal 111 total yards of offense and quarterback Marc Bulger was sacked an astounding seven times. This was the kind of game the defense has been waiting for, and the kind of game we have all been waiting for, frankly. The Panthers defense was simply relentless against a quickly sinking St. Louis team.

Except for an interception thrown by Delhomme in the Red Zone, the Panthers offense was good. Carolina ran for 242 yards on a day when its top running back was injured and the 6-4 Panthers recorded their first regular season shut-out since 1997, so long ago that only one player on the roster can remember it.
