It was an ugly loss which I lay mostly at the feet of quarterback Cam Newton and the offense. Newton was awful throwing the ball resulting in a 34 QBR. No need for further detail on that. In spite of Newton’s sad performance there were a couple notable performances on the offensive line.
Funchess caught two balls for 48 yards and his eighth touchdown of the season.
From PFF Elite: Left guard Andrew Norwell’s overall grade of 86.4 was the third-highest mark for a guard in Week 17. It was the third straight game he didn’t allow a pressure.
