The Carolina Panthers jumped out to an early 14-0 lead, but everything unraveled in the second quarter as they went on to lose to the Miami Dolphins, 42-21.
First Quarter
The Panthers got the ball first and unceremoniously went three-and-out. Fortunately the defense held up and forced the Dolphins do the same thing. The visitors were more successful on their second drive. A big play on an Adam Thielen crossing route set the Panthers up in scoring range, and a couple of nice runs by Chuba Hubbard ended in the end zone to put the Panthers up 7-0.
