Today’s edition of One Panther Rewind takes us back to the 2003 NFC Divisional Round—a surreal 15 minutes (and change) of football.
OT1, 9:42: following the 5yd penalty and two unsuccessful runs from Nick Goings, Kasay once again gets a chance to send the #Panthers to the NFC Title Game. As John Fox would later say: “Nothing good ever comes from do-overs.” pic.twitter.com/MlXmt9tair

OT1, 1:12: after a Carolina punt, the Rams are driving again, nearing Wilkins’ range with a fresh set of down inside the #Panthers 40. Rookie cornerback Ricky Manning Jr. is about to make the play of his life, and arguably one of the best defensive plays in team history. pic.twitter.com/u1wzKDEpip

OT2, 15:00: X-Clown. The unmistakable name for this immortal play. Sehorn was made to look as such, as Steve Smith’s crafty route left the veteran DB in the dust. 69 yards of pure bliss. The #Panthers win and advance to the NFCCG, where they would once again stun the world. pic.twitter.com/GREvan2AQQ
