The Carolina Panthers came oh-so-close to completing an incredible comeback against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, falling just short by a score of 33-30 at Bank of America Stadium.
Making the loss even more painful for Panthers fans was the fact that the team simply ran out of time. With the ball on their own 25-yard line and 19 seconds left in the game, rookie quarterback Bryce Young, in the midst of arguably the best start of his career, completed a pair of passes downfield, the first to D.J. Chark and the second to Adam Thielen.
But in a costly turn of events, Thielen did not hand the ball over to the official quickly enough after hauling in the reception. As a result, Young was unable to spike the ball in time to stop the clock, putting an end to Carolina's comeback attempt.
