Panthers’ kicker Graham Gano connected on a franchise record 63-yard field goal to give the Carolina Panthers a last minute come-from-behind 33-31 victory over the New York Giants at Bank of America Stadium. The Panthers led the majority of the game, and led 17-3 in the 2nd quarter before Giants quarterback Eli Manning rallied his team and took the lead with a little over a minute to play in the game, but left to much time on the clock. Cam Newton and Company were able to drive down the field for the game-winning field goal.
Newton led the Panthers with 21 of 35 passing for 237 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions. Eli Manning was 22 of 36 for 326 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions. The Giants Odell Beckham had eight receptions for 131 yard and he also threw a 57-yard touchdown pass to Saquon Barkley.
The Panthers are now 3-1 and will play next Sunday at Washington, while the Giants fall to 1-4 and will host Philadelphia on Thursday.
