From Panthers.com

  • Carolina won its first season opener since beating Dallas to start the 2018 season.
  • The Panthers' defense recorded six sacks, their most since a 2019 win in London over the Buccaneers.
  • The Panthers had eight passes defensed, tied for their most since that game in London.
  • After allowing opponents to convert nearly 50 percent of third downs last season, the Panthers held the Jets to 4-of-13 (30.8 percent) on third down.
  • Carolina held the Jets to 45 net rushing yards, marking the fifth time in the last nine games (dating to Week 11 in 2020) that the Panthers have held an opponent to fewer than 100 rush yards.
  • Carolina's 272 net yards in the first half were its second-most first half yards in a game dating back to 2015 (2020, Week 5 at Atlanta, 312).
  • The Panthers struggled in the red zone, converting just one touchdown on four tries.
  • After a 2020 season where Carolina went 3-8 in one-score games, the Panthers held on in the fourth quarter to win by 5.
  • This was the first time the Panthers have won a game with a final score of 19-14.
  • Quarterback Sam Darnold threw for 279 yards and a touchdown, and rushed for a score. It marked the seventh-most passing yards in his career and the fifth game where he recorded a rushing and passing touchdown. His 234 yards in the first half were the most he's ever thrown in the first two quarters.
  • Running back Christian McCaffrey had 30 touches for 187 scrimmage yards, including 98 yards on the ground and 89 through the air. He passed Walter Payton with his seventh career game with at least 75 rushing and 75 receiving yards. McCaffrey also passed Wesley Walls (324) to move into fourth place in franchise history with 329 career receptions.
  • Wide receiver Robby Anderson had a 57-yard touchdown catch, his 10th career receiving score over 40 yards. That's tied for second-most in the NFL since 2016.
  • Linebacker Shaq Thompson had a career day, making 10 tackles with an interception, a sack, a tackle for loss and three pass deflections. It was his second career interception and 10th career sack, but the first time he did both in the same game.
  • In his debut with Carolina, defensive end Haason Reddick had 1.5 sacks and a forced fumble, while fellow defensive end Brian Burns also had a sack.
  • In his first game with Carolina, kicker Ryan Santoso hit field goals of 22 and 29 yards, but missed an extra point.

This was great to see yesterday.

Also: 

Translation: 

Rookie CB Jaycee Horn gave up 1 catch for 10 yards on 3 targets in his NFL debut.

Horn also had 3 tackles, 2 of which were solo.

The one reception was a TD from WR Corey Davis on a beautiful pass from QB Zach Wilson:

I thought Horn played great for his first game in the NFL.  They didn't throw his way much at all, which leads me to believe he had his guy locked up most all game.  The TD he gave up was just a laser great throw by Wilson, still he was in great position and was a hair away from knocking it down.

I saw Reddick up in there man...if his 12.5 sacks from last year and then his performance last game is who he really is man we could have a steal there.

I know it took guys like Charles Johnson like 3 years to come into his own and be a 10+ sack a year guy...

That was scary. Like, damn. This kid is a talent and the Jets have let him get broken in half in his very first game.

I gotta be honest the guy looks like a pussy but clearly is quite the opposite. His strength/toughness to me was the most impressive part about him...we could have had 9 sacks but he got through a few of em

We got a 26 year old guy who was 3rd in the NFL in sacks last year and 1st in the NFL in forced fumbles for a prove it contract. I'm still stunned.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      Mel Kiper said he would retire if Jimmy Clausen wasn't a successful NFL starter too. Just because the experts make a claim doesnt mean it's true either.  Bryce may be a serviceable QB for someone. Serviceable QBs don't bring you a perennial winner or lead you to the playoffs over and over. Serviceable QBs also dont get 50m plus per year deals which is what a Bryce extension would look like.  The stats show he hasn't been even a serviceable QB in the 3 years he's been here. The eye test shows he hasn't put together 2 franchise QB salary games back to back in 3 years.  Complain all you want about people being negative, but people pointing out that Bryce is held to a different standard than anyone else on the team isn't complaining. It's stating the obvious.

      We have big bodied WRs and 3 TEs who all have potential and each bring something different to the table. I never saw the need to go out there and try and find a new starting TE.  While it's nice to have a guy like McBride, Bowers, etc, I think a team's better use of the cap is by having TEs on rookie contracts or cheap vets, not having to pay elite TE money.
