PANTHERS VS PHINS - BEST/WORST OF THE DAY

I'll admit that I left early. When you're down 17 in the 1st half, things start to look a little crazy. Some questionable play calls and BY's two turnovers -- well, it seemed pointless and my head was hurting.

That's no excuse, I know. As the Panthers proved, "It ain't over till it's over".... (Thanks, Mr. Yogi Berra..).

Anyway, I watched parts of the third and the fourth, before admitting that I screwed up by opting out when I did. So, after rewatching some parts and the parts I missed, Here are my thoughts. Would love to know what all of you think...

BEST:
Panthers' RUN DEFENSE..
Rico Dowdle's OFFENSIVE JUGGERNAUT -- (Wow... What a clinic he put on..)
XL's TD CATCH --  (He literally had the defender grabbing him with both hands before the catch - This was a textbook example of PI..)
McMillan continues to play "heads-up" football.
Two THREE solid sacks on Tua --  (Still not a LOT of pressure though..)

OTHER STUFF:
Too many pass completions allowed deep in our secondary. (Outside contain (passing) was not good; Deep cover was not good.)
Not enough pressure on QB.
Bryce Young's two more turnovers.
Another SLOW start
Too many penalties (In the first half we had five - they had one --- I THINK that's right..?)
