Eddy Pineiro Costs Panthers Divisional Win In Week 8
2 years agoCarolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro connected on two of his three field goal attempts as well as two of his three extra point tries in a 37-34 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. DJ Moore was penalized for removing his helmet after a game-tying touchdown, forcing Pineiro to kick a 48-yard extra point that he ultimately missed. He had a chance to redeem himself in overtime, but unfortunately, the 27-year-old failed to convert on a 32-yard field goal. The Falcons capitalized and won with a field goal of their own. Pineiro has been steady in 2022, but this was a brutal performance that led to a divisional loss. Pineiro will look to get back on track in a Week 9 matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals.
