Carolina 17, Miami 24

The Miami Dolphins beat the Carolina Panthers 24 to 17 in this game. It was an important game to both teams since they were trying to reach .500 and keep their playoff chances alive. But with this loss, the best record the Panthers could have is 10-6, which would means winning every game for the rest of the season. The odds of our team doing that are slim because we are a good team, but this year we can not win this close ones, and those games are the deciding factors of seasons. Even though we are plagued by injuries to our top players, that alone is not an excuse for our performance. In this loss against the Dolphins, Miami RB Ricky Williams pounded us for 119 yards rushing and 3 TD, and this is a 32 year old RB which is pretty old for a player who takes so much beating over the years. While Jake's performance has been much better for the past month, no longer having multiple interceptions in a game, the Panthers have still not found a solid rythm to win many games. With 6 games left, I think we will win 3 of them, beating the Jets, Bucs, and Giants.
