Biggest of all time

If style points counted it would have been worse than 34-0, but as it stands, it was still the biggest win in franchise history.

The previous large margin was 33, from the 44-11 whipping of Atlanta to close the 2005 regular season. (Edit: Yep, I screwed that one up earlier, it was one of those days they couldn't stop DeShaun).

The biggest home win was a 27-point spread they put on the New York Jets in 2005. That was the day Ken Lucas got in trouble for saying how good it felt to make the Jets quit, even though they did.

About subbing when the game is under control

It seems the NFL is reluctant to do that. I mean, if we brought in Seward, and Johnson at LB, they get time and we don't drop off much. We have a G who could benefit from playing on offense, although he was probably inactive.

Give McCown the second half of the 4th quarter. Let Lloyd kick a field goal. We may need him to win a game from 60 yards out.
-------------------------------------
I hope Jarrett becomes active and he never looks back.

Yeah but.......

If Fox had pulled the starters any earlier there would have been a bunch of people screaming that he was sitting on the ball trying to preserve a lead and let the Chiefs come back. That happens every season and when Dan Henning was OC it was a weekly thing.

Umm.....

Gantt, why the hate lately for the Panthers and John Fox?? Oh, by the way, I think you need to get your facts straight. You say that D-Will was taking direct snaps in the 44-11 win over Atlanta in 2005? Funny. I don't remember him playing for us before we drafted him. You know, in April 2006. And you get paid to do this? Haha.

Mea culpa

Yeah, I screwed that up. The DeAngelo direct snap had me flashing back.

There's no hate. I just think it was dumb leaving your QB out there for some frustrated scrub to take shots at when you're up a mile on a helpless opponent.

Had Jake got injured with score 31-0...

That game would not be much of a celebration. The best balance is getting Josh McCown out there to take some snaps and even throw a pass or two, so he is prepared just in case. It would be good for McCown in a non-pressure situation to throw a pass for real, so he gets that out of the way.

I don't get the "Darin hating" comment. What did I miss in this post?

Also, would have been nice to see Adam Seward with some reps along with Gary Barnidge. I mean wow - 34-0 - time to play your subs.

Overly harsh on my part...

...just seems like there has been an undercurrent of negativeness in a couple of your posts lately.

Delhomme in 2005

Not sure about that 2005 game . . . I think the DW direct snaps was the 2006 game against the Falcons. We won that one 10-3.
