The Carolina Panthers fell behind to the San Francisco 49ers in the second quarter after Blaine Gabbert connected with Torrey Smith on this beautiful touchdown (watch here.)
Having none of that in the next opening drive, quarterback Cam Newton launched a rocket to tight end Greg Olsen.
The result was this amazing 78-yard touchdown.
Let @GregOlsen88 get this wide open, better believe @CameronNewton will find him.#SFvsCARhttps://t.co/FrOPZ6mr2O

Olsen is one of the best pass-catching tight ends in the league. This stellar performance only highlights this fact.
Olsen handed the ball back to Newton afterwards. And, in keeping up with the Panthers tradition, Newton gave the ball to a child fan in the front row.
