Half-Time Report: Ted Ginn Jr puts Carolina Panthers in control against Atlanta Falcons

Ted Ginn Jr puts Panthers in control

The Carolina Panthers are on their way to reaching 13-0 in their season as they hold a commanding 28-0 lead over the Atlanta Falcons in their NFC South clash.

The Panthers saw their first drive of the game extended by a penalty against Falcons defender O'Brien Schofield, and Jonathan Stewart punished the visitors for their mistake as he ran into the endzone from three yards.

Ron Rivera's men extended their lead when Cam Newton lofted the ball deep down the left sideline and Ted Ginn Jr beat his man to catch the ball and race into the endzone for a 74-yard-touchdown.

Newton and Ginn Jr connected for the second time of the match to compound the Panthers' advantage as the quarterback sent the ball deep and the wideout made the grab and ran into the endzone to complete the 46-yard score.

The home side notched their fourth score of the match when Newton sent the ball low to the back of the endzone for Ed Dickson to make a diving catch under pressure to put his team into a 28-point lead.
