Well, if you were paying attention Canales basically went into don’t let Bryce screw it up  hardcore mode edition just up 10 points half way into the game.  Penix made that choice not costly just because he was horrific today.  

More football exists after today.  The fact we don’t have a legit QB is still THE talking point as they go forward.   

When any other team goes up by two scores and is dominating on defense, it's smart to go to the run game. Twisting that into, "We don't want Bryce to kill us" is beyond ridiculous. 

The final drive of the game before the kneel out? Yea, mostly runs while up 30-0. The drive before that? 4 of the 9 plays were passing plays. The drive before that was 5 passing plays from the 9 on the drive. The other drive to start the second half? 2 out of 5 plays were passing plays. There was balance. I do not understand why some of y'all are so desperate to disparage the QB that you're outright lying about what took place in front of all of us.

The last Panthers dub by 30+ was at New Orleans and started the team's push from 3-8-1 to 7-8-1 and a wildcard birth.

I don't think that result is going to be repeated, but it's awesome to see something we haven't seen in over 10 years.

Week 14 of 2015 38-0 against the Falcons.

Play anywhere close to this and next week is winnable too

We can absolutely beat the Patriots and dolphins coming up. But we could also lose both of those with this bipolar team

Oh damn, you're right though it was week 17. Week 14 was New Orleans. 

Fingers crossed we get a second 30+ win this season!

We need another offensive threat at receiver to help Tetairoa.  Maybe XL being sat down helps him the way last year helped Bryce.  I'm starting to really like how Canales deals with struggling players.

Coker coming back could be huge but it's still a few weeks away.  Sanders also looks like he has the ability to be that weapon as well.

Canales is undefeated in the third game of the season.

Renfrow and Young look out of sync.  I think maybe that will improve as the season goes along.

Funny stat we got a shut out with ZERO sacks lkl

That’s gotta be the weirdest 30-0 win ever.  The defense obviously played well, but uh, I don’t feel some surging confidence in the team afterwards like you would expect after that.  Just whelmed.

My biggest takeaway from the game is Penix is fuging terrible.  Thank God he made Bijan, an actual threat, a complete non factor.

Hopefully they build on it and carry some momentum going forward.

We mostly shut down Bijan.  He had a couple of nice runs, but for the most part especially on first down, we held him to 2 or 3 yards.  I think that was really the key to the game.  We forced them to throw, and they aren't very good at it.
