Monday Morning Optimist: A wide receiver emerges
The Carolina Panthers were steamrolled by an actual NFL team on Sunday, as the weekly traditions states will happen. In what has become a rather familiar script, Dave Canales’ offense got off to a strong start and gave the Panthers an early lead, but they quickly went off the rails and stopped moving the ball. They only lost by two touchdowns, but that was almost a favor from the Broncos. After letting Bo Nix loose in the first half, the Broncos dialed back the passing game in favor of a running game that wasn’t working. They felt comfortable enough with their lead that they faked a 60 yard field goal and called a double pass on fourth down. They knew the Panthers weren’t a threat.
