The Carolina Panthers’ season is going smoothly. Apparently the same couldn’t be said for their flight back to Charlotte, N.C., on Sunday.
Carolina continued its hot start with a 37-23 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, improving to 4-0 on the season. But stormy conditions led to a bumpy end to the ride, prompting kicker Graham Gano to send a shout-out to the pilot via Twitter for his landing skills.
Shoutout to our pilot for that incredible landing!! That was insane! 💨💨💨✈️💨💨💨👌
