After three: A lead for the home team

Hold onto your hats.

The Carolina Panthers have a lead, and they have David Carr in for the other side.

The Panthers eclipsed their season scoring average (10.4) with John Kasay's 55-yard field goal early in the third. That gave them a 13-10 edge, their first lead at home all year.

They also knocked 49ers QB Alex Smith out of the game, putting Carr in charge. He was wearing no gloves, but otherwise looked like the guy who went 1-3 here as the starter in 2007.

Smith suffered a shoulder sprain when sacked by Panthers DE Charles Johnson.

Panthers WR Steve Smith left with leg cramps, and then cramped their style when he came back. He killed a chance to add to the lead with a personal foul and a fumble.

The 49ers are about to line up for a field goal on the first play of the fourth quarter.

    • didnt he get a netflix show?  he like byoung has dont nothing to deserve the hype with that said cant be all out on him until a halfway decent qb starts playing.  alot of times wrs play down when they know their qb sucks
    • This isn’t even mediocrity sadly. I would have been fine with a respectable performance that allows your players to make the play. He is the weakest link on the offense.
    • He obviously can't get signifigant velocity on throws beyond 12 yds. Quick game he's fine he can read leaverage and rip a stick route. But those 2 balls where you have to get air on it over the 2nd level but with pace he can't do it. He has to generate power from the ground up, he's still throwing off platform like Mahommes and he'll never have that arm. I think he knows whats open an can can actually get through progressions but he knows he doesn't have the velocity to throw that tight window ball or too a primary route with minimal separation, so he extends the play at times just so he can buy a easier throw or make the defense breakdown. Thats not sustainable.  He's simply not a playoff QB, he's serviceable and he's a great character guy but he's not winning you a championship even with a loaded team sadly. Some guys are great college QBs but just don't fit in the pros i.e Wuerfful, White, Crouch, Bennett, Manziel etc. The NFL is a different beast when it comes to the cerebral side of things and theres a lot of inate skills that come into play.
