Leading the charge for Carolina was quarterback Bryce Young, who threw for an impressive 314 yards and one touchdown, showcasing both precision and poise. Chuba Hubbard added a solid ground game with 72 rushing yards, while rookie receiver Tetairoa McMillan emerged as a standout target, racking up 129 receiving yards to keep the Eagles' defense on its heels.
