I don’t know what was more obnoxious and peak Fox: the laser blast sound every snap or the booth of “Mitchell”-era Joe Buck, along with both Aikman AND Collinsworth
Collinsworth is the best part of that booth. I don’t know why people hate him, he is hilarious and knowledgeable. The goofiness for me is a pro, not a con. That’s what color commentators are supposed to be.
@tommyl.dayandtherunaways820 Collinsworth is annoying, his goofiness is cringy, his stupid chuckle and "here's a guy" quote are why people don't like him and never liked him
This was the game that officially solidified the Bucs-Panthers rivalry. We have to remember that, not two years earlier, both teams were in different divisions (Tampa in the NFC Central and Carolina in the NFC West). In 2002, when the league realigned, the Bucs won the Super Bowl, but their primary division rival that year was Atlanta with Michael Vick's electric play. Then in Week 2 of 2003, the Panthers shock the Bucs in their home opener after the Bucs missed an extra point at the end of regulation that would've won the game. Flash forward eight weeks later and we get this gem of a game, and the two teams have hated each other ever since.
Those 2 games were the definition of the 2003 season. First a block PAT and OT loss, then giving up a TD on a drive that took less than 1min. Yeah, also that IND comeback loss. That sunk a team that could have been relevant for a few years pretty fast.
This channel's great. Completely debunks everyone who says "bandwagon." Carolina was nice from '03-'05 with Jake Delhomme. I went to school with Dan Morgan at JP Taravella in Coral Springs,Florida. He was our rb and played for the U as a linebacker where he played the same position for Carolina. Great rivalry for both teams.
The Bucs wern't good this season though, yes they were defending champions but they were very average this year. Both Carolina and New Orleans were better than Tampa this year
Some more ideas for this week: Colts-Titans 2003 week 14 (the two co MVPs) Chiefs-Raiders: 1999 season finale, 2005 week 9 (Larry Johnson last second TD) Cowboys-Redskins 2012 (either game)
cortezmauricio56 I’m just saying Vikings because Brees wouldn’t be as loyal to Miami as he is to New Orleans, and since the Vikings have had qb trouble and reportedly offered Brees a huge contract in 2018 offseason that Brees declined why not. It’s fun to think about.
You have to be kidding me.. Aaron Brooks by this time was already a much better and established quarterback than Delhomme was and it wasn't even close. Brooks had a playoff win under his belt in just his second season against the white hot Rams and 2003 was Brook's best season as a starter with a 24/8 TD/INT. Meanwhile Jake while becoming a decent quarterback had a 19/16 season. The workload came from the defense and the running game of which Stephen Davis had 1400 yards so to say it was a mistake for the Saints is a definite lie.
Kyle Adrien How did they soften up? They played their asses off against a damn near unbeatable team and almost won one of the greatest SB’s ever? I think NE would make anyone “soften” some but if you mean they were just “soft” then I must respectfully disagree.
risky fap It’s such a shame that all he’s gonna be remembered for is that kickoff in the SB. He was such a reliable kicker who made shitloads of clutch FG’s for us for many years. I’d so love to have had him theses last few years over Gano.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers-🏈 AFC West (1976) NFC Central (1977 - 2001) NFC South (2002 - present) Carolina Panthers-🏈 NFC West (1995 - 2001) NFC South (2002 - present)
The Colts comeback was something but this was probably the end of the legendary Bucs defense they got torched this game. They were a good defense for a few years after but never were they the same as the 2002 team.
Only god was watching the Tampa Bay Buccaneers wear their white uniforms and pewter pants and played an NFL game with the eventual Super Bowl 38 runner-up, the Carolina Panthers in Week 10 of the 2003 NFL season.
Wow. The refs screwed Tampa Bay on several calls. At least 2 roughing/personal fouls uncalled, defensive holding, and that catch by Keyshawn Johnson was a catch.
The catch call was nuts. People complain about the refs now but that wasn't even close. It was clearly a catch Then the ref gave an overly descriptive explanation of what they say happened. lol Like they were trying to convince people.
I absolutely love Cam Newton, but Jake Delhomme, man, he was my favorite Panthers QB of all time. Jake wasn’t better than Cam, but dammit if the 2003 Panthers (11-5) face the 2015 Panthers(15-1), the 2003 Panthers would win. My fellow Panther fans know what I mean.
Panthers were a scary team to play. I knew if Tampa was going to get a victory, they had to have a great offensive game plan helped out with many lucky breaks and the Panthers offense had to throw 2+ Interceptions, several big mistakes(not blocking a pass rusher for an easy sack, possible big runs ruined by running backs tripping over their own players receivers dropping easy deep balls, receivers running wrong routes. ,and multiple fumbles. When the Panthers offense and defense were playing at their best, tampa bay need to be flawless and many miracles
Despite the fact we won, Delhomme looked absolutely awful. Overthrew Steve Smith and got picked off which was returned for a pick six, and then after Tampa just got a score, he threw yet ANOTHER pick. Glad enough to say that the defense and the rest of the offense bailed him out
God I keep having to remind myself the bucs won a superbowl, it almost feels like a blip in their history, like 0-26 to start, a lot of wasted years wearing orange, an all time great defense wins a championship, then right back to irrelevance
Ahhh, the fall of the champs. from a super bowl to 7-9. egos were very high on this team, too many kept trying to get on sportscenter instead of the proper play.
Gruden really wasted the defensive talent of that team. Defense kept them a lot of games just like the Dungy Era. If only Dungy had Keenan AND Keyshawn in Buc Ball
Overall delhomme wasn’t really good he was average maybe above average but in the 4th quarter he was pretty clutch I believe he led every qb this yr with 4th quarter cbs
I miss when the Panthers actually cared about winning or losing. In the words of this show "Shoresy": "The problem is they love to win, but don't hate losing." Under Matt Rhule, that's exactly what has happened. It's embarrassing to watch
Love him or hate him Steve Smith was one of the best, tough old school receivers of all-time.
the only people that hated him was the ones trying to cover him
Smith was a Hard nosed, take no prisoner, smash mouth receiver
Was 5'9" but played way bigger. Toughest dude I've seen. I'd never wanna fight a guy like that. Strong, Scrappy, fiesty.
Hard to hate that guy
The best about Smith was, his very first touch in the NFL, was a TD.
Nfl should have a TV channel that shows throwback games
They really should
Love it!
that would be awesome
Absolute Facts!!!!
NFL Network also shows throwback games.
That Keenan McCardell catch was damn incredible
"They can take they ass back to Tampa"-Steve Smith 😂😂😂
I don’t know what was more obnoxious and peak Fox: the laser blast sound every snap or the booth of “Mitchell”-era Joe Buck, along with both Aikman AND Collinsworth
Blue Skeptic The current one isn’t that great either. It looks like something thrown together at the last minute by using Microsoft tools.
Blue Skeptic I loved that scorebug
That ““Mitchell” -era Joe Buck” took me out 🤣
Collinsworth is the best part of that booth. I don’t know why people hate him, he is hilarious and knowledgeable. The goofiness for me is a pro, not a con. That’s what color commentators are supposed to be.

@@bowlchamps37 this was iron bowl intensity in a nfl game
I betcha the Eagles defense still remembers him, especially at the goal line😁
As a Bucs fan I can confirm this is true. I've hated Carolina ever since that week 2 game in 2003.
As a Panthers fan, this is just sweet to see great game 👌
I wish they would let teams play and be this physical
Iron bowl intensity
Im a simple man; i see a new nfl throwback video, pre-2012, i click like
I met Ricky Proehl three years ago at a flag football tournament. Real nice guy. Signed my Rams football for me

Panthers almost middle lb university lol
Daylight come AND YOU GOTTA DELHOMME
This was the biggest game in Carolina since 96 playoffs. Playoff atmosphere.
Steve Smith so underated he was a nightmare on that field my 🐐💯
Imagine if he had a HOF QB , like Drew Brees or Payton Manning!!! And he still won the triple crown with a below average QB
@@tommyebunn5121 fax he be remembered as a top 3-5 wr where he belongs he was that great
Notice at 1:57 the face didn't match the player💀
I met Keenan McCardell at target in Ashburn, VA when he was a WR coach. He was a gracious super nice guy.
This was when both teams were very good.
Bucs were the defending champs and the Panthers went to the Super Bowl vs the Patriots that season
The Bucs wern't good this season though, yes they were defending champions but they were very average this year. Both Carolina and New Orleans were better than Tampa this year
@@RromantiqBucs weren’t good again after that 02 SB win until Brady signed there lol
@@Thrashman-ye4cf Well there was the 2005 season which was decent but overall you're right. They went through a lot of quarterbacks from 2004-2020
Some more ideas for this week:
Colts-Titans 2003 week 14 (the two co MVPs)
Chiefs-Raiders: 1999 season finale, 2005 week 9 (Larry Johnson last second TD)
Cowboys-Redskins 2012 (either game)
Im not going to give it away but one of those is DEAD ON for the classic game highlights this week!
@@NFLVault its colts game lol but you should do antonio Freeman top game
Thank you so much for this; very nostalgic. I must've been in 2nd grade when this game was played.
Lol. At around 1:57, they show Steve Smith's stats. That wasn't even him in the picture.
carloctave yea noticed lol. I believe that was Peerless Price!
The Throw, The Catch, The Touchdown, The Steve Smith Sr.
This was a gem of a game I don't even remember existing at the time. Thanks for the upload.
Saints didn’t make a smart decision by starting Aaron Brooks over Jake Delhomme in the early 2000’s and Jake really proved his worth this season.
Chaos Films definitely, it worked out in the end though. Brees would probably be a average quarterback with the dolphins or Vikings at this point.
@@theinvictussamaritan4778 dolphins umm, vikings naw

@@theinvictussamaritan4778 Average qb? Brees would've been great with any team

That was a damn good Panthers team.
Wow! I was 21 in the Navy when I watched this game.
And Julius Peppers is STILL dominating
Peppers lasted 16 years in the NFL. That is amazing for a defensive end. They usually last only 10.
@@petersmitt2485 former north Carolina beast athlete as a packers fan I know
Panthers were tough physical team that season. Softened up in the Superbowl
just like many years later against Denver
Kyle Adrien How did they soften up? They played their asses off against a damn near unbeatable team and almost won one of the greatest SB’s ever? I think NE would make anyone “soften” some but if you mean they were just “soft” then I must respectfully disagree.
Derek brown from Auburn
just like kris Jenkins
What a dumb ass comment!!! They played great against the best team that year and should had won
@IVrunner both Denver and Carolina offense played like shit in their super bowl. Luckily Denver basically got 2 TD to win that game
This was the game I knew Carolina was legit...and the champion Bucs were in deep deep trouble.
kris jenkiins
Holy fucking shit, I have been trying to find this game for years. Thank you thank you THANK YOU.
Daylight come AND YOU GOTTA DELHOMME
Chris berman lmao decent QB who kinda had a poor man's boomer esiason
Damn I totally forgot about how underrated mushin Mohammad was
This was a really good NFC South matchup. You don't really see those nowadays.
I completely forgot about John Kasay. Out of all the legends on the field Peppers was the last to retire.
risky fap It’s such a shame that all he’s gonna be remembered for is that kickoff in the SB. He was such a reliable kicker who made shitloads of clutch FG’s for us for many years. I’d so love to have had him theses last few years over Gano.
This was legit the last stand of the SB era Bucs
Even as a saints fan I love this
@13:56...this catch does not get enough love! McCardell was a great receiver, one of the most underrated of all-time!
Especially with jaguars

Nobody can bored an exciting game better than Nasally Joe Buck.
The NFC champs panthers, playing against the super bowl champs, bucs. This was a good game. Panthers went to super bowl this year but lost a good one
Packers vs Vikings underrated matches.
Recommend doing one for Panthers-Saints shootout in NO in 2015. That was a fun one to watch.
2003 Was A Good Year For Football
I absolutely love Cam Newton, but Jake Delhomme, man, he was my favorite Panthers QB of all time. Jake wasn’t better than Cam, but dammit if the 2003 Panthers
(11-5) face the 2015 Panthers(15-1), the 2003 Panthers would win. My fellow Panther fans know what I mean.

Kept him longer than they should have. Never thought he was that good anyway.
Panthers were a scary team to play. I knew if Tampa was going to get a victory, they had to have a great offensive game plan helped out with many lucky breaks and the Panthers offense had to throw 2+ Interceptions, several big mistakes(not blocking a pass rusher for an easy sack, possible big runs ruined by running backs tripping over their own players receivers dropping easy deep balls, receivers running wrong routes. ,and multiple fumbles.

I was at this game shit was crazy fans fighting in the stands there was pure hatred from the field to the stands
1:58 that ain't Steve Smith's picture.
We almost had a reverse 5th down situation at 15:35.
Also, this game very well summarizes the entire season of the 2003 Buccaneers.
Commentator, 15:20: "Forced to do what he doesn't do well."
Jake: Watch this bruh.
1:58 Mannnn that ain't Steve Smith.... Jesus Christmas son.
Joe Buck: And now Delhomme is forced to do what he doesn’t do well.
Delhomme: leads a game winning drive against defending champs.
Even tho i'm a Bucs diehard, I respected the hell outta those '03 Panthers.
Ahhh, the fall of the champs. from a super bowl to 7-9. egos were very high on this team, too many kept trying to get on sportscenter instead of the proper play.
Anyone else notice @ 2:00 that's not a picture of steve smith..?
Ricky Proehl Shampoo with some big receptions. The Tampa Bay defense looked weaker than the one that dominated in the playoffs the year before.
This was when teams hated each other now teams are too nice this was hard nose football baby
I remember games like this when dude used to fuckin hit motherfuckers now everyone won’t even wrap up for a tackle missing n shitt
Thank the pussy rules in place now. Defenders are scared to hit hard
As a long time Bucs fan those were the good ol' days of Buc ball. Carolina at that time was a very good team. Steve Smith was a monster! Peppers too!
when football was football
Steve Smith is a absolute beast out there...#HOF
Damn, they couldn't even bother to get the right picture up for Smith at 1:59
Anyone else notice they had the wrong picture for Steve Smith? 😂
I was 4 years old when I watched this game. Was anyone younger?
saw this game with pops
Both teams were good in 03 im just suprised the Bucs didnt repeat as sb champs with the loaded squad they had.
King Kong Aint Got Shit On Me The Bucs had the talent to repeat but their chemistry was crap. Keyshawn and Gruden were fighting the whole year.
1:59 that don’t look like Steve Smith at all
I was like wtf 😂
That's what I thought too, ha ha. Looked like a Madden generated custom player image, ha ha.
I believe it’s Peerless Price!
At 2:00 that is not Smith lol
Ah...I remember this game. I was happy when the Carolina won because this was on my birthday week of Nov.14th!!! I hated Tampa Bay! #Goodtimes
Gruden really wasted the defensive talent of that team. Defense kept them a lot of games just like the Dungy Era. If only Dungy had Keenan AND Keyshawn in Buc Ball
They always say the 4th quarter is the best
Daylight come and you gotta Delhomme!
Is there another Steve Smith that I don’t know about?
yes he played wr for the giants around this time probably more around 2010 tho
Charlotte was a much more beautiful place during that time ... The energy was incredible;)
was this the game that Sap was dancing before the panthers started that game winning drive?
What a great game Go Panthers
this was true smashmouth football !
