Most of yesterday’s upset win over the Green Bay Packers felt like a fun, but ultimately inconsequential romp on a windy day. The Carolina Panthers and their fans were just happy to be in the conversation with an opponent that was, and still largely is, considered to be the class of the NFC. Nursing a […]

The Carolina Panthers defense suffocated the Packers offense in the red zone and their rookie kicker played the role of hero again. First Quarter Chandler Zavala marked his return to the lineup the best way he knows how—by committing a false start before the Panthers could get their first snap off. That put the offense […]

Bryce Young is back today for the Carolina Panthers. Rico Dowdle is reportedly getting the start and lion’s share of the carries this week. Everything is looking up for the Panthers upset chances against the Super Bowl hopeful Packers, right?

Fans of the Carolina Panthers are rather expert at spotting a head coach who isn’t going to last. Team owner David Tepper may have a reputation for an itchy trigger finger when it comes to his head coaches, but he has yet to fire somebody who the fanbase hadn’t already soured on. Ron Rivera, Matt […]

The Carolina Panthers were without Bryce Young last Sunday and instead had to roll with Andy Dalton. Recent history would have told you that the drop off from Young to Dalton wasn’t all that significant, and if the Panthers were going to compete with Young, they could do just about the same with his backup. […]

Nobody really expected to beat the Buffalo Bills last week. But a lot of us thought that maybe the Carolina Panthers could look competitive against them, even with the venerable Andy Dalton under center (Happy Birthday, buddy!). What we saw instead was so disheartening and played so directly against the established identity and strengths of […]

If I had a nickel for every time the Carolina Panthers got off to a promising start against an AFC East opponent then had several unforced but critical errors snowball into a margin of defeat nearing 30 points – I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice. Or […]

During his postgame press conference, Dave Canales broke the news that sixth-man offensive lineman Brady Christensen likely ruptured his Achilles in Sunday’s game against the Buffalo Bills, adding injury to insult. Christensen was lauded as a do-it-all lineman who could step in at all five positions on the offensive line. He had recently been filling […]

The Buffalo Bills are coming to Charlotte to see if Andy Dalton wants to play. A home game with a healthy offensive line sets the Panthers up to have a strong rushing attack, but Dalton’s capacity to still play professional football may decide how the game ultimately unfolds. There’s a lot to be said about […]
