Two weeks ago, people were wondering if
the Carolina Panthers would ever win. Capers v
kept responding by saying his expansion team's a
0-5 start was no reason to panic. The Panthers y
were doing the right things, he said over and
over, but they weren't doing enough of them, tl
Now Carolina has a chance to become the v
first expansion team ever to win three games d
in a row. And Capers once again is urging everyone
to stay calm. s

Most of those things were happening on the
Panthers' defense, which was ranked 11th in
the 30-team NFL through Carolina's first six
games and has not allowed a touchdown in the
past two games.
The Panthers held the Jets to 138 yards, including
just 25 on the ground, in a 26-15 victory
two weeks ago. Against the Saints, Carolina
forced five turnovers, including four interceptions
of Jim Everett.

seen his numbers plummet.
Two weeks ago, Collins failed to pass foe 200
yards for the first time as the Panthers' starter.
On Sunday, he didn't even reach triple figures,
having to settle instead for completing 8 of 21
passes for 48 yards.
Capers pointed out that even though Collins
struggled, he still got the Panthers into the end
zone following a pair of third-quarter turnovers
by the Saints and directed a scoring drive later
that went 67 yards.

The Panthers' young offensive line, which
features two rookie starters, lost its most experienced
member Monday. Right tackle Derrick
Graham, who is in his sixth year in the
NFL, will be out 3-4 weeks with a knee sprain.
Graham likely will be replaced by Mark Dennis,
an eight-year veteran who joined the Panthers
as a free agent.
"Guys have been rallying all season long and
staying focused, taking care of business," Capers
said. "This is the most positive momentum
we've had."
