I'm a stat nerd and wanted to share some interesting things i've come across with you all, feel free to add to it as you wish. I might make this a weekly thing

* For the third week in a row, the Carolina Panthers attracted more than 500,000 viewers in the Charlotte area's TV audience with Sunday’s win over Tampa Bay. In other words, the Panthers, based on Nielsen Media Research estimates of 2.8 million viewers in the region, have hovered near 20 percent of all possible viewers of late. By way of comparison, Carolina’s TV viewership earlier this season hovered between 300,000 and 400,000 viewers, in the Charlotte area, but jumped with the winning streak.

*The Panthers have scored 8-of-12 times on their opening drive of the second half this season, including six touchdowns. Also if you don't count kneel-downs in the final seconds as possessions, they've scored on 9-of-12 drives to close out the first half, including seven touchdowns.

* Opposing offenses haven't scored a single point in the second half in four of the Panthers' last five games.(New England)

*21 points is Tampa Bay's largest margin of defeat all year

*For the first time all year the Panthers did not allow a quarterback sack or hit

*Mike Glennon's NFL record 8 games to start a career with a touchdown came to an end Sunday

* The Panthers are now 8 of 9 when going for it on fourth-and-1 since his team's Week 2 loss to Buffalo,

*Cam Newton has thrown and run for a touchdown in 20 of a possible 44 games

* The Panthers lead the NFL in scoring defense, yielding 13.1 points per game, and rank second in total defense with 289.8 yards allowed

*This season the Panthers have allowed a touchdown on only 32.1 percent of opponent’s red zone drives (27.8 percent during the streak). Not only is that best in the NFL this season, it’s the best percentage since the league expanded to 32 teams in 2002. (2nd 2005 bears 32.5%)

*The Panthers 8 game win streak is the longest in the franchise's history

Cam Newton needs 76 yards and 2 TD to pass Peyton Manning for yardage & TD in first 3 seasons.

That would put him #1 in yardage & #2 in TD all time through 3 seasons.

    • ^I want that, but Rodriguez over KC. Don't hate KC as much at that spot, but rather take a WR with the pick we gain in that trade than in the 1st. 
    • I think there is good points in this thread to what the team needs to do. 1) Ball isn't really the issue but, he needs reigned in.  Coach and he need to realize when things aren't falling from the three and learn to play other facets of the game.  He's an amazing talent and when he's on, he's on.  But he can also shoot you out of a game.  We're lucky Miami went that way but that is too many missed threes.  He still needs to bulk up if he can, but he needs to drive more.  He's pretty good at finishing usually and hopefully the fouls come (probably not though).   2) The whole team needs to be more physical.  As others have stated, we need more bulk in our bigs.  Diabate is a hurricane of energy but cannot go against the larger centers.  I love him on the team but he should be more of a match up type guy or energy off the bench.  I think he'd be insane off the bench.  However I think the biggest issue with Diabate and Kaulk is the lack of offensive game.  The lack of a jump shot or anything.  Teams figured out to just leave them on the screen and crash lanes.  There has to be some sort of threat.  We need a 4 and a 5 that can do those things and stretch out the court. 3) Bridges.  He's just undersized.  However, I feel he really threw his all into it the last few weeks when others were gassed.  He was ok not being a focal point.  I'd like to have him off the bench as well but I assume he'd be traded to make things work.  4) Miller.  Dude can light it up when on, but disappears for quarters at a time.  Also he needs to work on ball handling and passing.  He's a turnover machine at bad times.  Also hopefully over the injury so he can bulk up too.   5) Kon. Just a rookie.  Long season and back injury.  I have no doubt he'll be back stronger and focused.  Needs to work on defense and physicality like the whole team but yes, a rookie he'll get there. 6) Coby.  Has to be resigned, no question.  The bench lineup is rough without him running the point.  Team has big potential and the front office seems sharp.  They seen the hive and how crazy it got and how much the city wants this.
