Panthers fans torn between crowning B.Young and running Evero out of the building after the prevent-defense collapse.

The emotional rollercoaster

Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.

What happened

B.Young threw a touchdown to J.Coker with 2:43 left to put Carolina ahead, and the defense still found a way to surrender a M.Stafford-to-C.Parkinson 19-yard touchdown with 43 seconds to play. The blocked E.Evans punt swung the leverage, but the late collapse points squarely at a coordinator the fanbase is already done with. A quarterback playing his best football deserves better than watching it evaporate in under four minutes.
