Carolina Panthers at Tampa Bay Buccaneers: London fry-up
Get an early start to the Carolina Panthers football game day in London here.
The Carolina Panthers last loss was a 20-14 defeat at the hands of divisional rival Tampa Bay back in Week 2 at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte. Fast-forward three weeks and Carolina hasn’t loss since, winning three straight in addition to making their first-ever trip across the Atlantic Ocean to play in London this week.
Backup quarterback Kyle Allen again gets the start in place of an injured Cam Newton, who didn’t accompany the team while traveling. Regardless, a seemingly re-energized offense and potent defensive front await a Buccaneers team hoping to duplicate their performance from earlier in the season.
Running back Christian McCaffrey was held to just 53 total yards in the last match up but has averaged over 200 yards in each of the past three games. Offensive coordinator Norv Turner is expected to have made some adjustments, including a healthy dose of McCaffrey to make the difference this time around.
An afternoon start locally, Carolina fans will be enjoying their breakfast (perhaps a traditional England fry-up) at kickoff in the states.
