Before even playing a snap today the Panthers clinched their third straight division title when the Bucs defeated the Falcons 23-19 earlier today. The Bucs win left both teams at 6-6 while the Panthers sit at 11-0 pending the outcome of their game with the Saints.

The Panthers clinched the division with four games remaining after today.
