Halftime: Bucs 17, Panthers 0

A dismal showing for the Panthers, no points and many punts. The passing game is running to the sidelines, Steve Smith and Jeff King are being mostly ignored, but DeShaun Foster is getting a healthy dose of carries. On defense, the Panthers are mostly unable to pressure Jeff Garcia, despite the injuries to veteran OL Luke Petitgout, and star RB Carnell Williams. The Bucs are not playing lights out, but are advancing down the field and scoring on every other possession. The Panthers are going to have to attack the middle of Tampa Bay's Cover Two more and create more pressure on defense if they are going to get back into this divisional matchup.
