    CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The Carolina Panthers had the second-ranked rush defense in the NFL last season and allowed only one opposing running back to rush for 100 yards. That happened in Week 2 when the Bills' C.J. Spiller had 103 yards.

    In the Steelers' 37-19 romp Sunday night they ended that impressive 16-game streak with a double dose of big backs the Panthers could not handle. Le'Veon Bell and LeGarrette Blount became the first Steelers running back tandem to each rush for 100 yards in a game since Oct. 26, 1986 :20:, when Earnest Jackson and Walter Abercrombie did it against Cincinnati. The 264 rushing yards were the most in a game in Mike Tomlin's tenure as coach.

    Bell rushed for 147 yards, including an 81-yard sprint in the third quarter that changed the game. Blount did most of his damage in the fourth quarter, adding 118 yards, including a 50-yarder that set up the Steelers' fourth touchdown.

    "We came in with a game plan and continued with the game plan," Bell said. "We wanted to pound those guys out. We knew they were patient. We just wanted to continue hitting and hitting them. Eventually, they broke."
    Leading, 16-6, the Steelers were backed up on their 8 and facing second-and-22 when Bell took a handoff and ran right behind David DeCastro and Marcus Gilbert to set the Steelers up at the Carolina 11. Ben Roethlisberger ended the drive with a 7-yard touchdown pass to Antonio Brown to take a commanding 23-6 lead.

    It was the first run of 80 yards or more by a Steelers running back since Willie Parker had an 80-yard run against the Browns on Christmas Eve in 2005. :woohoo:

    Bell noticed a tendency in Carolina's Luke Kuechly, the reigning NFL defensive player of the year, and cut back through a gaping hole the over-pursuing linebacker vacated.

    "Kuechly, he's a good player," Bell said. "There were a couple of times early in the game I kind of saw he was really playing the double well. That's our play, the double. On the 81-yard run, I made him think I was running outside. He flew outside and the offensive linemen did a great job driving the three-technique off the ball and opening the seam up. That seam was probably the biggest seam of my career. I hit it and ran until I couldn't run anymore." :quiet:

    The Panthers entered the game Sunday night ranked sixth through the first two games after allowing an average of 86 yards on the ground in victories against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Detroit Lions. :thud:

    I want him to wear something that speeds up his progressions and stops holding on to the ball for so long.
    I want Philly Brown to wear something that doesn`t give him the trembles when 10 angry men are wanting to take his head off.
    I want Roman Harper to wear something that just makes him disappear.

    Pretty bizarre. Have fans really been calling for Anderson in the last 24 hours? Defending Shula is strange. His play-calling is atrocious, and it's not like this is an overreaction to one game. He turned one of the league's most explosive offenses into by far the least explosive. The Panthers went from second in 20+ yard plays in 2012 with 75 to dead last in 20+ yard plays in 2013 with 43. Tampa Bay was next worst at 48. On yards per play Carolina dropped from 7th to 22nd. Obviously firing Shula isn't going to happen, both because the team is 2-1 and because Rivera picked him over Hue Jackson already, but the notion that changing offensive coordinators would be "foolish" is pretty stupid.
