The Carolina Panthers are about as bad of a football team as there is in the NFL. They’re completely adrift as a franchise: a lame-duck head coach, no short- or long-term answer at QB, misused skill players, anonymous defense. They’re exactly the sort of team a playoff hopeful franchise like the Cardinals should beat.
And we did. After another slow start, we handled business and finally beat the Panthers after losing our previous 6 games against them. Wins are always tough to come by in the NFL no matter the competition, and the team deserves plaudits for picking up a conference win on the road.
