Everybody knows how well Cam Newton, Greg Olsen and Luke Kuechly played in this game, but let's not forget some of the other contributors who don't get as much attention.

I'll start with Philly Brown, who had some pretty good plays early on that made the defense rethink itself a little but.

Who else deserves a pat on the back?

Just rewatched the game.  Man there were so many little plays..  Key blocks.  Blitz pickups.  Pick plays on the crossing routes.. etc..

Stew-- He was running like this was the last game he was ever going to play.

Turner and Kalil were mashing people.  I mean mashing.

Luke was great to have back but TD was everywhere Luke wasn't.   I can't believe how fast he is still.

Shout out to Shula... 28 points against that team.  4 80 yard drives?   Wow.

Stew gave this offense life. Ran hard and had the stats to show it.

Funchess caught the balls that made the difference. Regardless of the drops, the rookie showed up when the chips were down.

O-line across the board has done well. Love the big uglies.

Of course the always underappreciated Thomas Davis. Key sack, big hits, and set the tempo often.

D-line. Good pressure, should have gotten at least 3 more holding calls, made Russell Wilson more unsettled than any group we have had prior.

Great team win all around.

Oher and Remmers got beat a couple times but they were going up against a stellar D-Line and even the best get beat but I thought the O-Line did a tremendous job.   Shula says this wasn't the offenses best performance but it is hard to deny they were pretty damn good.  Four 80 yd drives is amazing.

I guess what bothers me the most was the "lack of explosive plays" the announcers keep talking about.  We are, and have been since Shula took over, a ball control offense.  Those big plays don't come too often and if you push for them.  More than not you are going to turn the ball over.   So Shula has to be commended for attempting them now and then to keep the defense honest but smart enough not to dwell on it.   I will take the 10-15 plays 80 yd drive any day of the week.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      I mean I just don't understand the argument. Baker and Sam both have been pro bowl QBs post their time here. And you just said yourself that is due to him having a damn good roster around him and they are well coached. You're even saying the bad baker is still there somewhere, but he is in a good organization with good roster and coaching that they are getting the best out of him. Why does Baker and Sam get all that benefit of the doubt but when it comes to Bryce it must be a BY9 problem, not an org or team problem?  Hell I got a guy below you arguing with me that Chark/Hurst/Mingo sucked because Bryce wouldn't throw them open. It's ridiculous how far the stretch goes.

      Correct.  It’s really hard to get open in the NFL when opposing defenses gameplan and cheat coverage/routes on all your players because they know your QB can’t make certain throws/plays.   magically no one that comes to Carolina can get open or make plays with the ball in their hands…..it’s like there is one singular common dominator to it all.  BY makes playing defense way too easy.   NFL players are too good to allow one side to cheat coverage and not respect all the potential threats of a route  so you can dial up a great play.  But if corners and safeties just cheat coverage and know X and Y happening on route/threats….getting open gets hard when they just play it one way.  Getting open has a lot to do with the different threats a WR can pose on a given play.

      Kinda depends how you look at it both were 3rd round draft pics.  Nico was nothing before stroud and tank came in with stroud.  If both were on the panthers would young have them doing well and starting or would their stats be low.  I really dont know the answer to that.  None of the panthers wrs have left and did well either but personally i feel neither of nico or tank would do much on the panthers.
