Dalton finished with 319 yards and three touchdowns on 26-of-37 passing, helping the Panthers pile up 437 total yards. The 14-year veteran's scores through the air were the offense's first of the season,

Dalton found three different pass catchers for the scores—running back Chuba Hubbard and wide receivers Diontae Johnson and Adam Thielen. The last one, a beautiful 31-yard connection for some “Dad Ball,” helped give Carolina a 21-7 lead at the break over the host Las Vegas Raiders.
