On this episode of Carolina Confidential, Gerrell Wheeler is feeling good as the Panthers sweep the Falcons with a 30–27 win in Atlanta—and Bryce Young puts the league on notice.
Gerrell breaks down Bryce’s record-setting day, as the young QB torches Atlanta for 448 yards, three touchdowns, no interceptions, and breaks Cam Newton’s single-game franchise passing mark. He talks about Bryce’s poise, his chemistry with Adam Thielen, Ja’Tavion Sanders, and Tommy Tremble, and why this is the version of Bryce Panthers fans have been desperate to see.
On the other side of the ball, Gerrell gives Bijan Robinson his flowers after a big first half, then credits the Panthers defense for tightening up when it mattered most. He also zooms out to the NFC South picture—Panthers now 6–5, sitting second in the division—and walks through the brutal upcoming stretch (49ers, Rams, Saints, Bucs, Seahawks) and what Carolina has to do to keep this playoff push alive.
It’s optimism, realism, and pure Panthers fandom—“it just feels good to be a Panthers fan right now.”
