Panthers

It's only halftime, and I know it's just a preseason game, but the Panthers were utterly pathetic in the first half. DeAngelo was a bit of a bright spot and had some decent runs, but it looked like Jake didn't have his timing down at all. Suzy Kolber reported before the game that Delhomme was working on fundamental things like footwork and holding onto the ball with two hands. What? The guy is 35, shouldn't he be working on timing and not turning the ball over instead of holding onto the ball the right way?

Does the offense know the objective is to score instead of turn the ball over and set the other team up for points? I don't think they do. Four fumbles and one interception lost in one half of football?

The defense has looked very vanilla and just plain boring. The tackling was very poor, our No. 1 defensive back Chris Gamble got run over on the Giants' first touchdown and Danny Ware drug Hillee Taylor into the end zone for the second Giants touchdown. I know it's just preseason and I'm probably just getting riled up for football because I haven't seen any since February but I really hope John Fox doesn't break camp early this year.
