Panthers Rise in Power Rankings

ESPN.com has released their weekly Power Rankings, and this week the news is better for the Panthers. They have moved up three spots, from number 26 to 23. Hilariously, in the… not so strong NFC, they are still in the playoff hunt. They certainly have one of the toughest rows to hoe to get there, though. They face some real competition down the stretch. But at least they finally got their first home win of the season.

The Panthers are one of those teams that are just absolutely impossible to figure out. They’re like the Chargers of the NFC, but with even worse luck. Since losing Delhomme, the quarterback carousel spun the Panthers wildly out of control. Now that it appears Vinny Testaverde is capable of playing an entire game, it would appear that the Panthers can once again compete with some of the league’s better teams. The question now remains, is it too little, too late?
