The Optimist: Welcome back to the original Famous Jameis recipe for sacks and picks

It’s early in the season for any team to seem repetitive, but here we are. The Carolina Panthers once again dominated an injury-plagued opponent in what ended up being a closer game than it could have been. The Panthers are currently tied with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at 2-0 (1-0 in the NFC South) for the division lead.Carolina’s record is largely due to a dominant defensive performance that has made opposing teams look like they were stuck in the preseason. The offense, on the other hand, has seen a lot of their successes punctuated by injuries or misfires.
