The Carolina Panthers totally destroyed the Redskins last Saturday Night.  Jake Delhomme looked the best he has all preseason as he completed 11 of 19 passes for 159 yards with 2 TD passes and 1 interception.  Matt Moore finished up the game essentially handing off the football as he completed 2 of 5 passes for 33 yards.  DeAngelo Williams led the Panthers in rushing in this game with 101 yards on only 9 carries (11.2 ypc) with a 60-yard TD run.  Rookie Jonathan Stewart also had a very impressive game rushing for 100 yards on 10 carries (10.0 ypc) with a 50-yard TD run.  Steve Smith had a good game as he led the Panthers in receiving with 60 yards on 4 catches (15.0 avg) including a 33-yarder for a TD.  He also scored on a 8-yard fumble return for a TD.  TE Dante Rosario pitched in with 2 catches for 44 yards (22.0 avg) including a 24-yarder for a TD.  Dwayne Jarrett finally had a decent game in the NFL with 4 grabs for 40 yards (10.0 avg).  The Panthers rushed for 228 yards on 32 carries (7.1 ypc) and they also completed 13 of 24 passes for 174 yards.

The defense was also outstanding for the Panthers in this football game.  CB Richard Marshall led the way for the Panthers in this game with 9 tackles.  DE Julius Peppers had another outstanding game for the Panthers with 3 tackles, a sack and 2 fumble recoveries.  The Redskins finished up with only 79 yards rushing on 22 carries (3.6 ypc) and they also completed 21 of 37 passes for 129 yards.  Too bad this game didn’t count because the Panthers looked like the best team in the NFL this night.
