The luckiest win in Panthers history?

#1) Austin Sefarian-Jenkins drops a wide open TD pass in the 1st quarter.

#2) Jonathan Stewart near fumble in the 1st quarter miraculously recovered by the Panthers

#3) Austin Sefarian-Jenkins TD inexplicably called back in the 4th quarter (is this guy cursed or what?)

#4) Offsides penalty on the Jets on 4th down to gift the Panthers a first down in the 4th quarter

#5) Roughing the passer called on 3rd down late in the 4th quarter

#6) Countless near-blocked punts

I can't think of a game where the ball bounced the Panthers way more often. If you older Panthers fans can show me another example, I'd like to hear it. As far as I see it, this has to be one of the luckiest wins in team history. It's better to be lucky than good, every time.

Good teams learn how to win during turmoil, Look at Patriots and Seattle 

I mean this makes two games an opposing team has dropped a wide open TD that would have probably ended up losing the game for the Panthers should it have gone the other way. I don't know what voodoo football magic goes on in the netherworld but the Panthers seem to be on the winning side of these things this season. Last year, everything would have gone against them. Next season, I bet it turns around again. This is not a good team this year. This is a lucky team. I'm not complaining, it's just fascinating.

On that play....his second foot didn't hit inbounds before his shoulder hit out of bounds.

Hip is the same as 2 feet.

That second ASJ catch was a TD...I mean yea it moved but barely 

The ball moved while he was going to the ground.  while he was out of bounds.

Yea it was weak...it doesn't pass the eye ball test at all.

I watched it several times slow motion.  At one time while he was out of bounds neither hand had control of the ball.  If it was just one.. yeah but both hands didn't have control.

Yup we were gift wrapped this game.    To be fair, it hardly happens like that for us, but this time, it definitely happened.

It's about fuggin time some questionable calls go our way. We've been on the short end of that equation for a long time. It may have been ugly and pure dumb luck, but I'll take the W.

Honestly it was like the twilight zone.  Balls don't usually bounce our way like that.  Pause. 

I'd be lying if I said it wasn't pleasurable to see the pendulum swing our way for once but we were lucky to make it out of that one, especially with the ASJ reversal and the mind bogglingly dumb RTP penalty.

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
