Offense lost the game today, not the defense. The defense was helped by a couple of errant throws, but they weren't terrible. They're close.

The defense got methodically shredded in the second half.  I think the heat got to both teams. But they gave up a ton of rushing yards in the second half,  got no sacks, and Goff mostly had a lot of time to rhrow.  

We forced the Rams to punt only once in the entire second half.

The Panthers played poor defense in the second half.  They burnt themselves out playing defense in the first and engaged a conservative strategy that did not win them the game in the second.  Overall they did pretty well we were within winning distance the whole game and it did not come together.  This is a good football team and they will continue to play like it but they need to turn these sorts of games into wins.

The defense played well enough to win. The offense did not. Remember that we're talking about a high-powered offense. But for offensive screw-ups, we win the game! I'm not worried about the defense at this point. No, they didn't get a sack, but they got some pressure. The inability to stop the run was a little troublesome, but that's what happens when you're gassed.

I did not see anything different today.  All CMC and nothing else.  Prove me wrong

Cam Newton sucks

 

That’s because you don’t understand context. It’s pretty dumb to run 3-4 against a team that runs a majority 11 personnel.

just remember, Cam is a far better player than you are an observer of football and even better than you are a message board poster.

Actually ran a lot of 4 fronts that were really 3-4 looks based on gap scheme but takes an observant eye to see. That's part of why they added the mix in, they can run a 4-3 or 3-4 it look the same before the snap. After the snap and you see gap schemes and such is when you can tell. Also based on Rams scheme you want that extra db on the field most of the time. So much of the day was in nickel formations with both ILB dropping back into coverage.

They could do better. I wish Irvin was out there. It might have helped the run defense a little bit.

 We lost by 3 points with a missed fg, a fumble in fg territory,  and an int that led to 7 point for them.

    • Wide Receiver: Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers – 85.3 One of the more shocking developments of the 2025 NFL season has been the Carolina Panthers’ ascension to the top of the NFC South, which they achieved with Sunday’s win over the Buccaneers. Perhaps nobody has made a bigger difference than former eighth overall pick Tetairoa McMillan, who continued to be a steady presence in the Panthers’ offense. McMillan caught six passes for 73 yards and a touchdown in the win Tight End: Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers – 91.1 Evans only saw the field for 16 snaps, but he was efficient in his limited playing time. He caught all three of his targets for 23 yards on just six receiving snaps while also grading well in pass protection (72.2 grade) and as a run-blocker (68.4) Edge Defender: Nic Scourton, Carolina Panthers – 77.9 The former second-rounder out of Texas A&M has been a force along the Panthers’ defensive line, and he was a key contributor in Carolina’s huge win over the Buccaneers. Scourton recorded two stops as a run-defender and added another while in coverage. Scourton also tallied his sixth sack of the year while contributing another pressure to the mix Safety: Lathan Ransom, Carolina Panthers – 75.7 Another Carolina Panther on this week’s list, Ransom has typically been stronger in run defense — he carries an 85.2 grade in that field on the season. But Sunday against the Buccaneers was his best day in coverage. Ransom intercepted his only target, which wound up being the game-winner that put the Panthers in the driver’s seat in the NFC South
