Redskins Pound Panthers on Ground in 29-21 Upset

The Redskins stomped the Carolina Panthers 29-21, scored 29 straight points and racked up a season-high 248 rushing yards while improving to 3-9 on the year.

Carolina established a commanding 14-0 lead with a pair of touchdowns on first two drives less than 10 minutes into the game. Quarterback Kyle Allen led the Panthers down the field and completed the drives with scores to wide receivers Curtis Samuel and DJ Moore.

Washington entered as a 10-point underdog and No. 4 in the 2020 NFL Draft order. Under interim head coach Bill Callahan, the Redskins faced a choice: fight or fold.
