OFFICIAL 2004 PRESEASON GAME 1 - PANTHERS @ PATRIOTS

Personally, I'd rather temper my expectations and be pleasantly surprised if it goes well. I feel much better about the team and coaching staff than I did last year. Never was a big fan of Frank Reich, and it all just seemed too convoluted and plain "vanilla" to me. I've kind of bought into the Dave Canales excitement and expectations.
