The Carolina Panthers managed just 50 yards, didn\u2019t convert a third down and lost the time of possession battle by 13 minutes in the first half.<\/p>\n
And yet, they only trailed 13-7 \u2013 thanks to an interception by Christian Rozeboom that gave the Panthers a short field and set up a Bryce Young-to-Tommy Tremble 8-yard touchdown.<\/p>\n
Young was intercepted on the Panthers\u2019 next possession when Jacob Parrish jumped in front of an out route to Tetairoa McMillan. The Bucs settled for a field goal after the take away as offensive coordinator Josh Grizzard stayed conservative and kept the ball on the ground in wet conditions at Raymond James Stadium.<\/p>\n
The Panthers\u2019 run game was non-existent in the rain and facing a Bucs\u2019 defense that is ranked seventh vs. the run. Carolina had seven carries for 5 yards in the first half. Rico Dowdle, who entered the game needing 7 scrimmage yards to hit a $1 million, finished the half with 6 yards on five carries. He did not catch a pass.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Carolina Panthers managed just 50 yards, didn\u2019t convert a third down and lost the time of possession…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":386527,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[436],"tags":[49,48,514,82],"class_list":{"0":"post-386526","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nfl","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-nfl","11":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/386526","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=386526"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/386526\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/386527"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=386526"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=386526"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=386526"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
