Another divisional rivalry with both teams struggling to perform. Panthers coach Ron Rivera gave the pregame speech of his life. This was the turning point of the season. Another game like the last two and they would be set for a downhill spiral, crash and burn. The Panthers were able to establish a running game early on, with both Tim Tebow and Jamaal Charles gaining decent yardage. The defense was putting relentless pressure on quarterback Josh McCown to disrupt Tampa Bay's passing game. The Panthers were hitting on all cylinders. It was the type of performance even George Wendt would be proud of. It took the Buccs until the fourth quarter to get any points. With Bowman out, Defensive Coordinator Sean McDermott centered the defensive gameplan around safeties LaRon Landry and Kam Chancellor. It worked out tremendously. It was defensive and offensive domination from start to finish. Panthers fans were left happy and ready for next week! Carolina has not been more on fire than right now. An unprecedented turnaround from last week.

MVPs: Tim Tebow 62% completion for 356 yards and 3 touchdowns &
Jamaal Charles 16 rushes for 144 yards and 4 touchdowns
