In Week 8 the Panthers lost 37-34 in overtime to the Atlanta Falcons in a crazy, crazy game to fall to 2-6 on the season. Carolina played well in many facets of the game but ultimately shot themselves in the foot with a big DJ Moore penalty and two missed kicks by Eddy Piñeiro. Here are the key stats from a competitive road loss to an NFC South rival:
118 yards, 3 TDs - We will always love Christian McCaffrey in these parts, but the Panthers rushing game has been just fine without him over the last two weeks.
