The Panthers were favored to win against the Falcons. They were expected to win. That comes with the territory when you're undefeated. What nobody predicted, however, was the complete decimation of Atlanta to the point where the game was over at halftime, Cam Newton didn't need to play a quarter of the game, photos at the 2 minute drill and a nice victory lap for good measure. The Panthers' 38-0 drubbing of the Falcons was so complete, so resolute that even the staunchest of critics are eating their words.
Before the game I was talking to a friend about how this season has been unforgettable.
