The home team, Carolina Panthers executed last night and we got a much deserved hard fought win over division foe Tampa Bay. The Buccaneers came ready to play and this was obvious early on in play.
Carolina managed to drive to the red zone on the first possession and connected with a Kasey field goal to give us the early lead. Cadillac Williams returned to the TB line-up and contributed somewhat; but not enough to hurt the Panthers.
Rookie sensation, Jonathan Stewart worked out a first half TD following a Tampa Bay FG with 1:56 left in the first half. The Panthers closed out the first half of Monday Night Football with a 10 to 3 lead.
After halftime, it was basically ALL Panthers!
Our running back tandem of "Slash and Dash" made their respective presences known as well. Both RB's rushed for over 100 yards each at an average of at least 6 yards per carry. This is simply remarkable at this stage of the season! De Angelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart showed their heart and grit Monday night. These young men worked for their salaries and entertained at the same time.
I think so, or maybe it's the Tequila! The game was competitive and this made the ending more compelling. I couldn't have scripted it better. LOL.
That feat by the Panthers was historic. That's what's up Panthers!
Final score, Panthers 38 and Buccaneers 23. We are now 10-3 here in Panther Country.
