After 329 days and nearly 2,500 miles away from home, the Panthers got back in the win column. It had been nearly a full year, but Sunday, I was able to capture the sweet sights of victory.

“No one said it had to be pretty,” quarterback Teddy Bridgewater said as he left the SoFi Stadium turf.

The 21-16 win may not have been beautiful, but it was enough.

The defense forced three turnovers, which resulted in three different end zone photoshoots with the “Thieves.” Each time the defense came down for a picture, they would say, “Wussup, B?!”

With no fans to interact with, I guess I was the next best thing.
