Oh no, Foster fumbles after about a 10 yard gain and the Panthers recover about midfield.

Play is under review......

Excellent cutback by Foster...good thing its preseason...take care of the football though.

On another note...good to see KMart downfield blocking on that run.

I'm not live with the game, but man is spencer Tillman awful. A few of his gems...

TJ Yates has phenomenal athletic ability.
Justin Forsett is an amazing talent.
Whitney mercilous is unblockable.

I may have to mute it.

[Big Texas]

Kareem is looking extremely motivated.

2 targets..

1...across the middle he jumped the route and tipped the pass...almost a pick

2...out route in the red zone to steve smith...he jumped the route and forced a wide pass...


On another note....
