The Haslett teams may have been stuck in mediocrity of 8-8 and 9-7 seasons, but we had some awesome special teams... Beer Man was a joy to watch.
He had 3 but the Atlanta blocked kick may go down as the most important play in franchise history given the impact it had on the city. Beer Man was fun as hell to watch.
And who knows what would have happened if Haslett didn’t have such a hard on for Brooks.

Brooks was not the problem on those teams IMO. I know he wasn't an elite QB, but he was far from as bad as fans make him out to be. I'd rather have him than Bobby Hebert back in the 90's.

He was just fine in 2001, 2002 and 2003 (even outplaying Jake Delhomme that entire year. 2003 Panthers are one of the flukiest SB teams ever and really should've got their doors blown off by the Pats in the big game)

2002 season was derailed by Brooks' injury though. Haslett should've sat him and put Delhomme in, but my guess is that the team didn't want to end up having a QB controversy on their hands like they had with Jeff Blake after the 2000 season.
