Sunday’s game between the Carolina Panthers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Charlotte came down to the wire, with the Panthers coming out on top 23-20 and taking the NFC South lead with two weeks to go. Panthers legend turned NFL Network Analyst Steve Smith Sr. joined Kyle Bailey to break down what made the difference in the Panthers win over Tampa.

When it came to what impressed him the most, Steve noted the job the Panthers defense did to neutralize a Tampa Bay offense with so many dangerous weapons, and Steve noted that their ability to make adjustments in the 2nd half really made a difference, and they have to keep that same pace in the final 2 weeks of the regular season.

Steve would also go on to break down Tetairoa McMillan’s big game after a couple of quiet weeks, and what challenges the Seahawks will bring this weekend.
