The Carolina Panthers scored two offensive touchdowns for the first time in six games, but they couldn’t quite pull off the win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and lost, 21-18.
First Quarter
The Buccaneers got the ball first and moved it a bit, including on a reverse run play that picked up a nice chunk. An offensive pass interference short circuited the drive, and a nice breakup by Troy Hill forced a punt. The Panthers came out with the new offense and ran for zero yards and then had to dirt a bubble screen on second down.
