Most Kubiak-led teams have relied on the running game to not only carry them, but especially to protect leads. Like I said earlier, even by Kubiak-standards, this is a bad offense... Manning is still doing impressive things for a guy who has no arm or body at all (basically doing it all with his mind), but they're not going to win any games that their defense doesn't come out and explode on the other team (and we've basically seen that the last 2 weeks, and most of this team's big wins this year).
I'm surprised how the Panthers are able to move the ball on the Cards' defense. I thought they would struggle.
I was expecting Bucannon and Campbell to stuff the run even go after Cam with their athleticism, but this looks like a one-sided affair.
Carson Palmer is a glorified game manager. Cam Newton has grown into a franchise QB. That's the difference in this current game.
