Keep Pounding!
The Carolina Panthers front office is busy throughout the season with transactions, roster moves, and injury updates. Here’s what’s happening at Mint Street this week. Injuries With the Panthers entering a bye week, there’s little to report on the injury front, which is a good thing. Guard Chandler Zavala (elbow) and running back Rico Dowdle (quad) didn’t […]
Hello CSR! I recently broke down the whirlwind of a 2025 season for the Carolina Panthers defense, and while there were certainly bumps and bruises along the way, it seems Dan Morgan and his front office have laid a solid groundwork to continue building a quality unit. Sure, the pieces they’ve assembled have played vastly […]
The Carolina Panthers have no game to preview this week, so we’ll instead use this space to review what they’ve done on the offensive side of the ball this season. It has been one of the most curious and unpredictable units in the entire league. They’ve had games where they look like they could hang […]
Hello CSR! Its the bye week, meaning the Panthers do not have a matchup to break down this week. However, that means its a perfect time to do some self reflecting. I’ve brought you the defensive previews each week, and things have changed significantly since the start of the season, sometimes even on a week […]
Even though the 2025 NFL season just started, it’s never too early to look ahead toward the 2026 NFL Draft. This weekly series will take a closer look at some of the prospects the Carolina Panthers could select in the 2026 iteration of the Draft. In this series, we’ll only be looking at prospects the […]
The Carolina Panthers met the expectations of the vast majority of their fans for the 2025 season before their bye week. Now, with four games left to play on the season, they have the opportunity to exceed them. Unless the Panthers lose to the hapless New Orleans Saints next week, we’re going to spend the […]
At this point, there is not much left to be said that describes the up and down nature of the Carolina Panthers 2025 season. By almost any metric, any point of view, any anything – the Panthers should not have won this game. The Los Angeles Rams came in Sunday looking like the most formidable […]
Hello CSR! Welcome to… wait, Brian Asks? “Didn’t you just change that title a few weeks ago?” You would be correct! However, its the bye week, meaning theoretically not much is going to change between now and their next game against the New Orleans Saints. So this week I decided to change the formula a […]
The Carolina Panthers gained a signature upset win yesterday against the Los Angeles Rams. It is hard to understate how big of a deal it is for them to be playing meaningful football in the month of December instead of just talking about the upcoming NFL Draft. Head coach Dave Canales and quarterback Bryce Young […]
Dave Canales finally committed to the run against a superior opponent. Bryce Young delivered a precise-when-it-mattered and mistake-free game. This was the game we hoped for against the San Francisco 49ers and, instead, it showed up a week late and right on time as the Panthers head into their much needed bye week. For all […]

The Carolina Panthers were in first place for a few minutes in the NFC South but after the Tampa Bay Buccaneers won a moments after the Panthers did, the Bucs are back in front. The two teams play twice in the final three weeks of the season, so there is plenty of opportunity still. Elsewhere […]
The Carolina Panthers continue to defy all odds in every direction as they took down the Los Angeles Rams. First Quarter Any expectations of a blowout seemed to get reaffirmed by the way the game started. The Rams got a big return into Panthers territory to open the game, and a Panthers penalty added another […]
The Carolina Panthers are back in the market for a signature upset win. The Los Angeles Rams are one of the best teams in football this year. This could hardly work better as a script if it was written for Hollywood. Unfortunately, this is reality and the odds are that the good team plays well […]
To be polite, fans of the Carolina Panthers struggled to find much about their team to be thankful for this week. Suspicious playcalling and bad quarterbacking spoiled a huge potential upset against the San Francisco 49ers on Monday Night Football. Nascent conversations about the playoffs turned back into debates over just how big of a […]
The Carolina Panthers front office is busy throughout the season with transactions, roster moves, and injury updates. Here’s what’s happening at Mint Street this week. Injuries It’s a brutal injury report for the Panthers this week. On the defensive side of the ball, Carolina will be without stud cornerback Jaycee Horn, starting linebackers Christian Rozeboom and Trevin […]
Hello CSR! I hope you all enjoyed your Thanksgiving week! As we all know, we can’t dwell on last week and we’re on to the Rams, who travel to Charlotte in an attempt to try and stay atop the NFC. Meanwhile, despite a horrific showing on Monday Night Football as a whole, the defense for […]
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 […]

The 6-6 Carolina Panthers are looking to play spoiler this week when they host the 9-2 Los Angeles Rams. To gain a deeper understanding of what it’s like to root for a team that is “good” and has “a promising future,” I spoke with Evan Craig of Turf Show Times. The poor guy seems confident, […]
The Carolina Panthers are thankfully at home, licking their many, many wounds today. We’re blessed with better offensive teams for Thanksgiving football. Join us here to discuss the Detroit Lions at the Green Bay Packers at 1:00 PM ET, the Kansas City Chiefs at the Dallas Cowboys at 4:30 PM ET, and the Cincinnati Bengals […]

The Carolina Panthers showed up on the west coast to a San Francisco 49ers team that was in a generous mood. The 49ers were determined to gift the Panthers a primetime victory, a 8-6 record and top position in the NFC South. Instead, the Panthers did what has now become the completely expected thing after […]
Hello CSR! Welcome to Ask Brian, your weekly Carolina Panthers fan mail bag for everyone! Unfortunately, we are coming off another week of the seesaw performance of Bryce Young and the offense throughout this season. They got beat in their first Monday night, football game in quite some time, and unfortunately, Bryce Young regressed well […]
