15. Carolina Panthers

Recap: The Panthers got an absolute beatdown today by Nick Bosa, and while there were other defenders on the field when this happened there really didn’t need to be.

Outlook: Carolina has a (kinda) hard decision to make. Kyle Allen has had a better stretch than any that Cam Newton has gone on in a long time and Newton may still have some bumps and bruises.

With a game against the Titans this weekend, do you really want to see Newton’s first day be filled with QB hits from Harold Landry, Cameron Wake, Jeffery Simmons and Jurrell Casey? That sounds like a tough day at the office for any QB, much less one that stays hurt for seasons at a time.

Either way, this week will be huge for both teams as they try to prove that they are worth investing in and really buying in to for that playoff push down the stretch.
