Carolina Panthers
DST - Carolina Panthers
2024 Outlook
The Carolina Panthers are expected to hire Buccaneers offensive coordinator Dave Canales as their new head coach.
Fantasy Impact
Canales helped lead Baker Mayfield and the Tampa Bay offense in his first season as the Bucs' offensive coordinator. He was only interviewed by Carolina, and is now expected to be the Panthers next head coach.
The Carolina Panthers D/ST allowed nine points, while registering three sacks in a 9-0 loss to Tampa Bay.
Fantasy Impact
The Panthers’ defense allowed 137 passing yards and 113 rushing yards in the loss to Tampa Bay. The Panthers’ defense is rebuilding and will be under a new coaching staff to start the 2024 season.
The Panthers D/ST allowed 26 points on 317 total yards with three sacks on Sunday against the Jaguars.
Fantasy Impact
The run defense continues to be a struggle for Carolina. They will remain off the fantasy radar next week.
The Panthers D/ST allowed 33 points and picked up one sack in a 33-30 loss to the Packers in Week 16.
Fantasy Impact
Carolina struggled to slow down a Packers team that was without their top two receivers in Christian Watson and Jayden Reed. Green Bay was able to rack up 369 yards of total offense in the close game and dominated on the ground with 162 rushing yards. Carolina will look to regroup ahead of a Week 17 matchup against the Jaguars.
The Panthers' defense limited the Falcons to just seven points on 204 yards of total offense while coming up with one interception and one fumble in Sunday's 9-7 win.
Fantasy Impact
There was not much offense from either side in this NFC South showdown between the Falcons and Panthers. The Carolina defense, however, gave the Panthers a chance to win by stifling the Falcons both on the ground and through the air. The Panthers did not record a sack, but they did force two turnovers. Carolina could have a tougher task slowing down the Packers next Sunday.
