Bowl linebacker Jon Beason.The two interceptions by Beason went with his team high 12 tackles to raise his season totals to three interceptions and 122 tackles. He is on a pace to challenge his team tackle record of 160 set as a rookie in 2007 and has now tied the career team record for linebacker interceptions at seven with Sam Mills and Will Witherspoon.There was also plenty of help from his defensive teammates:• Chris Gamble had an interception to end the last Buccaneer threat for his 23rd career theft, leaving him only two shy of Eric Davis’ team mark of 25.• Chris Harris had an interception in the end zone to prevent a touchdown for the second straight week after causing a fumble that was recovered in the end zone at New York.• Safety Charles Godfrey moved back into the starting lineup and recorded an interception in his first start since Week Six.• Defensive end Julius Peppers had a sack and now ranks sixth in the NFC with 8.5. All the takeaways were needed as Tampa Bay amassed 469 yards, but Panthers still rank 13th in yardage allowed and 18th in points surrendered despite seven opposing scores on returns. The game also proved to be a milestone for kicker John Kasay, who became the seventh player in NFL history to kick 400 field goals as he converted all three of his tries.

After finding their way back on the winning track at home against Tampa Bay last week, the Carolina Panthers face a formidable challenge staying there when they face the New England Patriots Sunday at Gillette Stadium. The Panthers topped Tampa Bay 16-6 as quarterback Matt Moore and running back Jonathan Stewart stepped into starting roles to key the offense, but it was the defense that literally stole the show with five interceptions to preserve the victory. Moore, making his first start since 2007 for an injured Jake Delhomme (broken finger), completed 14 of 20 passes for 161 yards with one interception. Moore had last started in the final three games of his rookie season against Seattle, Dallas, and Tampa Bay. Stewart ran for 120 yards and a touchdown on 26 carries while making the first start of his two-year career in the place of team rushing leader DeAngelo Williams, who sat out the game with an ankle sprain. Rookie Tyrell Sutton backed-up Stewart and added 38 yards on six attempts. Williams leads the Panthers in rushing with 1,022 yards and Stewart has added 664 yards with both players having scored seven touchdowns in a rushing attack that ranks third in the League A game earlier another second year player, MacKenzie Bernadeau of Waltham, MA and Bentley College made his first start at left guard and last week played an instrumental role in the success of an offensive line that allowed just one sack while paving the way for 157 rushing yards. With time to pass, Moore found Steve Smith three times for 78 yards, including a season-best 66-yard pass to set up a fourth quarter field goal. Smith leads the ground oriented Panthers with 49 catches for 682 yards in a bid for a fifth consecutive 1,000-yard season. However, ball protection was as important as yardage totals for the Panthers, who have a League-high 31 turnovers while surrendering 98 points off those miscues. The only turnover to come from the offense was Moore’s interception to go with a muffed punt on special teams. Meanwhile the Carolina defense, which has not started the same lineup two consecutive weeks this season, had five takeaways as the Panthers held Tampa Bay without a touchdown despite eight trips inside the Carolina 30-yard line. The five interceptions by Carolina all came inside the Panthers 20 yard-line and three came in or at the end zone, including two by Pro

L A S T M E E T I N GBank of America Stadium, September 18, 2005 - Carolina limited the defending Super Bowl champion New England Patriots to 39 rushing yards and turned two Patriot turnovers in 10 points to earn a 27-17 victory. The Panthers defense was responsible for two fumble recoveries, two sacks, one interception and held the Patriots to four-of-14 on third down conversions. The Panthers surrendered one rushing first down, equaling the second fewest allowed in team history. New England committed 12 penalties. Cornerback Ken Lucas led Carolina with 11 tackles and defensive end Mike Rucker recorded a sack to move within half a sack of equaling the Panthers all-time record. With Carolina clinging to a 20-17 lead, Rucker’s sack produced a forced fumble on New England quarterback Tom Brady that was recovered by Julius Peppers and gave Carolina pos-session at the New England 12-yard line to set up a Davis’ third touchdown. Stephen Davis’ three rushing touchdowns tied a team single-game mark and matched his career high. Panthers cornerback Chris Gamble posted a 76-yard punt return, the third longest in team history, to set up a Davis’ second touchdown. Kicker John Kasay converted field goals from 51 and 52 yards and punter Jason Baker established a career-high with four punts inside the 20-yard line. The Panthers improved to 7-2 in team history when facing the defending Super Bowl champion.

BILL BELICHICKJOHN FOX

H E A D C O A C H E SF O XPanthers head coach JOHN FOX (68-56 regular season, 73-59 overall in Carolina) is in his eighth season with Carolina. Fox’s 73 victories since 2002 make him the winningest coach in fran-chise history. His career in Carolina is highlighted by a Super Bowl appearance in 2003 and an NFC Championship appearance in 2005. The four consecutive playoff road victories he notched along the way tied the NFL record held by the Dallas Cowboys under Tom Landry. Fox may be at his best, however, when faced with adversity. In 2002, he took over a 1-15 squad and produced a 7-9 season, a six-game improvement in victories that marked the second-best improvement by a rookie head coach in the NFL since 1978. In 2007, Fox led Carolina to seven wins, the most by a team that started four different quarterbacks since 1988. Prior to coming to Carolina, Fox spent five years as the New York Giants defensive coordinator (1997-2001).

B E L I C H I C KPatriots head coach BILL BELICHICK (145-91 regular season, 160-95 overall) is in his 35th season as an NFL coach and is the only head coach in NFL history to win three Super Bowl titles in a four-year span. In his first nine seasons as Patriots head coach, he has won 116 games – more than any other head coach in NFL history through is first nine years with a team. Belichick’s Patriots teams own the all-time NFL records for consecutive total victories (21 from 2003-2004), consecutive regular-season victories (21 from 2006-2008) and consecutive playoff victories (10 from 2001-2005). Over a 100-game span from 2003-2008, he directed the Patriots to an 82-18 record – the best for record for any 100-game span in NFL history. Hired by Chairman and CEO Robert Kraft on January 27, 2000, Belichick is in 10th season as New England’s head coach in 2009.

P A N T H E R S A N D P A T R I O T SIn the last meeting between the two clubs Carolina captured a 27-17 victory (09/18/05) at Bank of America

Stadium. The 2005 meeting was the first for the two clubs since they met in Super Bowl XXXVIII when New Engalnd posted a 32-29 victory. The series dates back to 1995, when Carolina claimed a 20-17 victory at Foxboro Stadium in the franchise’s inaugural season.

D R A F T D A Y R E C A PThe Carolina Panthers selected seven players in April’s NFL Draft, including two second-round selections in defensive end Everette

Brown and cornerback Sherrod Martin. It is the first time the Panthers have not had a first-round selection since 1999 when they selected defensive end Mike Rucker and tackle Chris Terry in the second round. Here is a brief look at Carolina’s 2009 draft class:

Round Player Position College 2nd (43rd overall) Everette Brown DE Florida State University 2nd (59th overall) Sherrod Martin S Troy University 3rd (93rd overall) Corvey Irvin DT University of Georgia 4th (111th overall) Mike Goodson RB Texas A&M University 4th (128th overall) Tony Fiammetta FB Syracuse University 6th (163rd overall) Duke Robinson G University of Oklahoma 7th (216th overall) Captain Munnerlyn CB University of South Carolina

U N D R A F T E D N O T U N W A N T E DCarolina entered the preseason with 16 undrafted rookie free agents on the roster, but there was only one standing in the end –

offensive tackle Garry Williams from Kentucky. Williams was awarded a roster spot becoming only the third undrafted rookie to make the team since head coach John Fox took the reins in 2002: That doesn’t mean undrafted rookies haven’t contributed. In 2004, Carolina had five undrafted rookies appear in at least one contest, but Kemp Rasmussen (2002) and Quinton Teal (2007) and now Williams remain the only undrafted rookies to make the final roster cutdown under Fox.

FOR STARTERS

Matt Moore started at quarterback in place of Jake Delhomme, who was out with a broken finger on his right hand. It marked Moore’s fourth career start with the others coming in the last three games of the 2007 season versus Seattle (12/16/07), ver-sus Dallas (12/22/07) and at Tampa Bay (12/30/07).

Second-year running back Jonathan Stewart made his first-career start, opening in place of DeAngelo Williams - who did not play because of a sprained ankle suffered at the New York Jets (11/29/09).

Also on offense, Dante Rosario made his fifth start of the sea-son as the Panthers began in a two-tight end set. Defensively, Charles Godfrey replaced Sherrod Martin in the lineup at free safety. He started the first six games before suffering an ankle injury versus Buffalo (10/25/09).

KASAY KICKS MILESTONES

Kicker John Kasay booted a 23-yard first-quarter field goal, one of three for the game against Tampa Bay, to become just the seventh player in NFL history to make 400 career field goals. He finished the game with 10 points to move into 10th place all time in NFL history for points scored with 1,703, bettering the 1,699

totaled by Jan Stenerud from 1967-1985.

SACK PARTY

The Panthers collected two sacks against the Buccaneers and have gathered 23 this season. Defensive tackle Nick Hayden registered his first-career sack when he dropped Josh Freeman for a two-yard loss in the fourth quarter. Defensive end Julius Peppers also notched one quarterback takedown and leads the team with 8.5 this season. He ranks as the Panthers’ all-time leader with 79.0 sacks, including 15.5 in 15 career meetings against Tampa Bay.

TOUGH SLATE

The 2009 Carolina Panthers Schedule features eight games against 2008 playoff teams. Philadelphia, Arizona, Miami, New England, Minnesota, the New York Giants and Atlanta (twice) all made the postseason a year ago. Using a formula based on last season opponent winning percentage: the Carolina Panthers 2009 Schedule is ranked the second toughest in the NFL. Their 2009 opposition teams’ season record last year was 151-104-1 for a winning percentage of .592. The toughest schedule in the NFL belongs to the Miami Dolphins, whose opposition winning percentage was .594. The weakest schedule in the NFL belongs to the Chicago Bears, whose opposition winning percentage was .414.

THE MOORE THE MERRIER

Quarterback Matt Moore completed 14-of-20 passes for 161 yards and no touchdowns with one interception to produce a 73.1 quarterback rating. His 66-yard completion to wide receiver Steve Smith in the fourth quarter represents Carolina’s longest offensive play this year, and his 70.0 completion percentage stands as the highest by a Panthers’ passer in 2009. In three games with one start this season, Moore has completed 20-of-32 passes for 224 yards and no touchdowns with two intercep-tions.

RED ZONE SUCCESS

Carolina yielded a season-low six points to Tampa Bay, bet-tering the previous low of 17 points on two occasions - versus Washington (10/11/09) and at the New York Jets (11/29/09). Despite allowing four Buccaneers’ drives inside their 20-yard line, the Panthers gave up just three points on those four pos-sessions, creating two takeaways and forcing one missed field goal.

C A T S C R A T C H E S

N E W C A T S I N T O W N Of the Panthers 53 players on the roster, 16 are new to the club this year. 19 of the 22 starters who started on Opening Day in 2008 are back with the club. In addition the Panthers have seven new players on the roster that didn’t attend training camp with the club. QB A.J. Feeley, WR Charly Martin, LB Jordan Senn, RB Tyrell Sutton, DT Hollis Thomas and DT Derek Landri.

M U H A M M A D C A T C H E S M I L E S T O N E . . .Wide receiver Muhsin Muhammad tied for the team lead with five catches for 39 yards to surpass 11,000 career receiving yards

in Week Five against the Washington Redskins. In his 14th NFL season, he ranks fifth among active wide receivers with 845 receptions and 11,239 receiving yards and seventh with 61 receiving touchdowns. Muhammad ranks second on the club with 38 catches for 382 yards.

P I C K P O C K E T S Carolina The Panthers’ five interceptions, all of which occurred in Carolina territory, rank as the second most in team history - previously accomplished earlier this season at Arizona (11/1/09). The team record for the most interceptions in a game is six versus St. Louis (12/12/04).

Safety Charles Godfrey intercepted his first pass of the season on the Buccaneers’ opening possession of the game on an overthrown ball at the Panthers’ 18-yard line. He returned it 12 yards to set up John Kasay’s first field goal, which gave Carolina a 10-0 advan-tage.

Linebacker Jon Beason registered two interceptions, the 17th time in team history that a player recorded two thefts in one game. He stepped in front of a Josh Freeman pass at the goal line on Tampa Bay’s first possession of the second half for his first pick. Following a Carolina turnover in the third quarter, Beason seized the momentum right back on the Buccaneers’ first play with his second intercep-tion at the Panthers’ three-yard line.

Safety Chris Harris forced a turnover and saved a touchdown for the second consecutive game. After forcing a fumble at Carolina’s one-yard line last week at the New York Jets (11/29/08), he made an interception in the end zone on fourth-and-goal. A touchdown by Tampa Bay would have tied the game at 13.

Cornerback Chris Gamble thwarted the Buccaneers’ final scoring opportunity with his second interception in as many games and returned it 12 yards. He ranks second in team history with 23 interceptions and 283 interception return yards behind Eric Davis with 25 interceptions and Mike Minter with 418 interception return yards.

Beason, Gamble, Richard Marshall and Sherrod Martin are tied for the team lead with three interceptions.

B U I L D I N G T H R O U G H T H E D R A F T . . .Carolina has 14 draft picks in the starting lineup, 15 if you count fullback Brad Hoover who was signed as an undrafted free agent,

and 33 total on the club. On offense quarterback Matt Moore and guard Keydrick Vincent weren’t drafted by the team, and defen-sively lineman Tyler Brayton, Hollis Thomas, Damione Lewis, linebacker Na’il Diggs and safety Chris Harris were not draft picks.

DEANGELO WILLIAMS BECOMES PANTHERS ALL-TIME LEADING RUSHER (3,755) AND GOES OVER 1,000

YARDS FOR THE SEASON

Running back DeAngelo Williams eclipsed 1,000 yards rush-ing for the second consecutive season by posting a team-high 40 yards on 16 carries against the New York Jets (11/29). He cracked the 1,000-yard plateau in the first quarter on a four-yard run. It marked the fourth time in team history that a player has surpassed 1,000 rushing yards in a season - previous-ly achieved by Williams with a team-record 1,515 yards in 2008, Stephen Davis with 1,444 in 2003 and Anthony Johnson with 1,120 in 1996. Williams leads the Panthers with 1,022 yards and seven touchdowns on 197 carries this season and is third on the team with 26 recep-tions for 234 yards. Williams ranks first in team history with 3,755 rushing yards, 30 rush-ing touchdowns and 15 games with 100 or more rushing yards and second with 735 rushing attempts. It’s hard to believe but DeAngelo Williams has only started 28 games in his four-year career. Williams has been extremely productive in those starts.

Here is a look at where his accomplishments rank through his first 25 starts:

•27 rushing touchdowns in his first 25 starts ties for second among active running backs behind Clinton Portis (28, Was.) and Michael Turner (27, Atl.)

• 19 runs of 20 yards or more in his first 25 starts rank fourth among active running backs behind Adrian Peterson (29, Min.), Clinton Portis (21, Was.), Chris Johnson (19, Tenn.).

Running back Jonathan Stewart compiled a team-leading 120 yards and one touchdown against Tampa Bay - scoring on a three-yard run in the first quarter - on a single-game high 26 car-ries to produce his fourth career 100-yard rushing performance, three of which have come against the Buccaneers. He previ-ously rushed for 115 yards and two touchdowns versus Tampa Bay (12/8/08) and 110 yards and one touchdown at Tampa Bay (10/18/09). Stewart surpassed his previous high of 19 attempts,

achieved versus Kansas City (10/5/08). He ranks second on the Panthers with 664 yards and seven touch-downs on 145 carries this season. The first (13th over-all) of Carolina’s two first round selections in the 2008 NFL Draft, running back Jonathan Stewart made an immediate impact on a Panthers offense that would finish the season as one of the most productive in team history. Stewart finished the season with team rook-ie rushing records of 836 yards and 10 touchdowns on 184 carries. He collected the first 100-yard rushing game of his NFL career when he posted 130 yards and one touchdown on 15 carries in Week 11 versus Detroit (11/16/08). Stewart produced his second 100-yard rushing game in his first appearance on Monday Night Football in a Week 14 matchup versus Tampa Bay (12/8/08), producing 115 yards and two touchdowns on 15 carries.

Stewart has posted 15 touchdowns in his first 28 games with Carolina.

B E A S O N A N C H O R S M I D D L EMiddle linebacker Jon Beason, who earned his first Pro Bowl nomination in 2008, continues to build off the foundation he

laid last season by notching 122 tackles, two sacks, three interceptions, two fumble recoveries and four passes defensed through the season’s first 12 weeks. In 2008, Beason led the team for the second consecutive year with 159 tackles and tied for the club lead with three interceptions. He surpassed the 200-career tackles mark in just his 20th game with 10 versus Atlanta (9/28/08). His three interceptions were the most by a Panthers linebacker since Will Witherspoon collected four during the 2004 season.

Here is a look at the top four single-season tackle totals by Panthers rookies:

game. He stepped in front of a Josh Freeman pass at the goal line on Tampa Bay’s first possession of the second half for his first pick. Following a Carolina turnover in the third quarter, Beason seized the momentum right back on the Buccaneers’ first play with his second interception at the Panthers’ three-yard line. to win the award.

P E P P E R S A D D S K I C K T O D E F E N S I V E L I N EDefensive end Julius Peppers has achored the Panthers defensive front in 2009, collecting 42 tackles, 8.5 sacks, 22 quar-

Peppers notched his 8.5 sack of the season when he sacked Buccaneers quarterback Josh Freeman for a four-yard loss in the second quarter. Peppers ranks as the Panthers’ all-time leader with 29 forced fumbles. He posted his fifth-career interception in Arizona (11/1) picking off quarterback Kurt Warner and returning it 13 yards for his third-career touchdown. It marked the Panthers first return for a touchdown this season and their first interception return for a touchdown since cornerback Richard Marshall’s 73-yarder versus San Francisco (12/2/07).

Peppers previously scored on a 46-yard interception return versus Tampa Bay (11/28/04) and 60-yard fumble return at Atlanta (12/18/04).

The Sporting News magazine assembled a blue-ribbon voting panel of 106 experts including 27 Hall of Famers and past and present Pro Bowlers, executives and coaches to compile a list of the 100 best players in the NFL. Four current Carolina Panthers made the list.

• Defensive End Julius Peppers – No. 16 Franchise leader in sacks (79.0), forced fumbles (29) and blocked kicks (9).

• Wide Reciever Steve Smith – No. 24 Franchise leader in touchdowns (55) and 100-yard receiving games (31).

• Tackle Jordan Gross – No. 55 98 starts are most by an offensive lineman in club history.

• Linebacker Jon Beason – No. 81 First player in team history to lead the team in tackles his first two seasons.

Notably absent from the list was running back DeAngelo Williams who finished the 2008 season third in the NFL with 1,515 rushing yards on 273 attempts and led the League with 18 rushing touchdowns. Williams has rushed for 1,022 yards and seven touchdowns in the first 12 games of the 2009 season.
