Biggest takeaways from Panthers’ Week 15 win over Falcons

There he is!

On Sunday, Bryce Young got the second return on his “Sweet Home Alabama” for “Sweet Caroline” swap, and he had an enormous part in it. The rookie displayed remarkable poise throughout a torturous set of wet and windy conditions, an offering that culminated in a clutch game-winning touch.

Young led the Panthers on a 17-play, 90-yard trek to run out regulation—a possession highlighted by beautiful completions of 18, 19 and 20 yards. Each throw, more difficult than the last, helped set up the walk-off field goal from Eddy Piñeiro and gave us another long-awaited glimpse into why the Panthers organization believes their rookie is “him.”

While we’re still waiting on Young to blow up the box score, as he finished with just 167 passing yards, he showed us what a No. 1 overall pick looks like.
