The Hidden Gem of the NFL

Anyone who watched the Panthers stomp all over Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints on Sunday saw one outstanding Carolina team dominate one of the league’s best quarterbacks, utilizing their red-hot offense to whoop up on the Saints in an incredible 30-7 victory. With a win like that (and with losses that teams like the Indianapolis Colts and San Diego Chargers endured Sunday,) the NFL should be talking up a storm about this come-from-behind Carolina team. So why is word of the Panthers still mum?

According to the Bleacher Report, the Panthers suffer from a stigma that was cast long ago, when the team was one of the worst in the NFL. Over the years, the addition of standout players Steve Smith, Julius Peppers, Jake Delhomme and, most recently, Jonathan Stewart have slowly but surely turned the Panthers into an unstoppable force in the NFL, but with other high-profile teams stealing their thunder Carolina has managed to slip under the radar, currently standing with the third best record in the NFL and tied for first place in the NFC South. With teams like the Colts, Patriots, Chargers and Cowboys struggling to stay alive this season, attention should be paid to the Panthers as they continue their victorious attacks.
