The Carolina Panthers are off to a good start in their Week 6 matchup in London against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Tampa's defense recorded a turnover on the game's very first play, with James Bradberry picking off Jameis Winston's pass attempt to Mike Evans. The Bucs' defense held the damage to Joey Slye's 49-yard field goal, however, as the Panthers' offense failed to gain a yard after Bradberry's pick.
After punting on their next two possessions, the Panthers' offense traveled 99 yards on their final possession of the first quarter. On fourth and goal, running back Christian McCaffrey's second effort gave the Panthers their first touchdown while capping off their 12-play drive. Panthers' quarterback Kyle Allen was perfect on the drive, competing all six of his throws for 68 yards.

The Buccaneers, who defeated the Panthers on the road in Week 2, have yet to win or lose consecutive games this season. After lighting up the Rams to the tune of 55 scored points in Los Angeles in Week 4, Tampa Bay dropped a 31-24 decision on the road against the New Orleans Saints last Sunday. While his completion percentage is down, Bucs quarterback Jameis Winston is enjoying a solid season under Tampa Bay first year head coach Bruce Arians, with an 11:5 TD:INT ratio entering Sunday's game. The Bucs' defense hasn't been as good as of late, however, as the unit failed to record a single sack in last Sunday's loss.
Carolina has rebounded well after a rocky start to their season. After an 0-2 start, the Panthers have won three straight games and are just a game behind the Saints in the NFC South division standings. Kyle Allen, who is playing in place of injured quarterback Cam Newton, has started in each of the Panthers' wins. Allen's success has helped open things up for running back Christian McCaffrey, who leads the NFL in rushing yards and yards from scrimmage. Luke Kuechly and the Panthers' defense is surely looking to get back on track after allowing over 500 total yards in Carolina's Week 5 win over Jacksonville.
