99 yard drive in 1st qtr.

Really surprised no one is talking about the 99 yard drive the Panthers had in first quarter to make it 10-0... Was Kyle Allen perfect on that drive, like 4 for 4, or 5 for 5? Not sure, but he looked very poised while being pinned deep like that, I'm surprised no one has really said anything about that drive. That was probably the most impressive offensive series/drive the Panthers have had all season long.

It was a thing of beauty.

12-plays, 99-yards, burned 7:32 of clock.

The QB7 & CMC show....just what the Brits paid to see.

On the drive QB7 completed 5 consecutive passes for 6yds, 16yds, 2yds, 21yds & 23yds, in that order.

Even better, four different players caught balls on the drive...Moore (2)...Olsen...CMC...Samuel.

One heckuva job of game management there...

Definitely a confidence builder for Allen moving forward and the offense as a whole. Seriously, the Bucs defense is a good defense, and this was a period in the game where the Bucs confidence was still high. Panthers had the interception on the first play of the game, but the Bucs felt like it was still anyone's game at that point. I was really impressed with the way Allen commanded the offense during this drive, this is a case in point of Allen improving from week to week.

People are to busy discounting him and saying 2015 Newton will be returning. 

Dang! If 2015 Cam shows up with the weapons this team has on offense now... Talk about a new generation of "The Greatest Show on Turf". The Panthers would be unstoppable on offense, I guess we can dream, but I'm not holding my breath. Seriously though, if Cam can truly come back healthy and play at the level he's capable of it makes this team deadly... We just haven't seen that Cam in a long time and if Kyle Allen beats the 49ers and looks good doing it, do you take that chance?

His name is Undefeated, not QB7

That drive was a major turning point in the game.  The Bucs defense survives the first interception to force a field goal, then has us standing in our own end zone.  They had to be thinking it was going to become a 3-2 game or they were going to give their offense the ball back in great field position.  If their thought was "this is going to be good," they were right....just not the way they thought.

I don't think their defense ever recovered from that drive.  They went from being aggressive to looking like they were on their heels the rest of the way.  It was like they realized they could stop CMC and still not win the game.

    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
    • Well, we got our answer on Army today.
    • Not a chance the SEC could compete with the NFL.  In the large cities that are not in the Southeast, (LA, NYC, Chicago, SF) College football is an afterthought.
