Gulp. I don’t know how to take an optimistic view of this game. That’s true of either side of the ball, but we’re going to focus our pessimism on the offensive side of the ball since this is the offensive preview. The offense just got done embarrassing themselves on Monday night by squandering away three […]

Hello CSR! Welcome to Ask Brian, your weekly Carolina Panthers fan mail bag for everyone!
