Panther Nation Podcast

The Panthers got embarrassed 43-13 by Tampa Bay — on the day they honored Luke Kuechly. Baker Mayfield threw 11 passes for 64 yards and still won by 30, something no NFL team had done on the road since 1958. We break down the Evero stat that should worry everyone, why the league's most expensive offensive line just gave up five sacks, Taylor Moton's brutal injury, and whether this team can respond Thursday night at Lambeau.

The Panthers have now held back-to-back opponents under 50 rushing yards — and they're 3-2 and alone in first place in the NFC South. We break down the 25-14 win in Philadelphia, including the 14-play, 92-yard drive that showed this team can close a game out instead of surviving a comeback.

The Panthers didn't play a snap last week and still had one of their best Sundays of the season. The Saints and Falcons both lost, and Carolina now sits alone atop the NFC South at 2-2.

The worst run defense in football just held Jahmyr Gibbs and the Lions to 46 rushing yards — on Sunday Night Football — without Jaycee Horn, Mike Jackson, Jalen Coker, Xavier Legette and three starting offensive linemen.

A brutal Sunday in Cleveland. The Panthers were up 18-13 with 2:29 to go and had the game-clinching interception — until a roughing the passer flag wiped it out. Cleveland scored, Carolina fell 21-18, and then the injury news got worse: Jaycee Horn is out 6-12 weeks with a torn quad. We break down how the game got away, the full injury picture, the corner crisis, stock up and stock down, and update both the Evero and Bryce Young meters before Detroit comes to town on Sunday Night Football.

One week after giving up a franchise-record 59 points, the Panthers defense held Atlanta to 3. Five takeaways, a Devin Lloyd pick-six, zero rushing touchdowns allowed, and a 34-3 win.

We break down the turnaround, run through the full stock up / stock down, update the Evero hot seat meter and the Bryce Young extension meter, cover the Jonathon Brooks and Pat Jones injury news, and preview Sunday's trip to Cleveland.

Is Ejiro Evero on the hot seat after surrendering 291 rushing yards, six rushing touchdowns and 10 third-down conversions? We put a number on it. Then: where does the Bryce Young extension conversation stand after he threw for 361 yards and four total touchdowns? We put a number on that too.

Dave goes over the opening game against the Bears and some of the news of the week.

The cuts are official — so let's break down the Carolina Panthers' final 53-man roster, position group by position group. We go through every spot on the depth chart, cover the biggest surprises and snubs, and then break down the FULL practice squad

It's cutdown week — so we're predicting the Panthers' full 53-man roster, position group by position group. Who makes it? Who's the surprise cut? Who lands on the bubble? We go through every spot on the depth chart and lock in our final 53.

The Panthers laid an egg in Buffalo — the starting offense put up 12 yards and zero first downs in a 29-14 loss to the Bills. But there's a lot more to this story than the box score. We break down why the offense struggled (hint: it's the offensive line)

Football is back — and the Panthers opened the preseason with a walk-off win in Canton. We're recapping the Hall of Fame Game, including a debut nobody saw coming, before getting into the storyline that matters most all season: multiple beat reporters say Bryce Young is having his best training camp yet.

Dave discusses the latest news

Pads came on for the first time in 2026 and Day 4 of Panthers training camp gave us a little bit of everything: good injury news, a couple of new bumps, a 7-on-7 scuffle, and some genuinely exciting player development.

Training camp opened this week with tough news: veteran right tackle Taylor Moton was diagnosed with a blood clot in his lung in late June, is on blood thinners, and will start camp on the reserve/NFI list — expected to miss the start of the regular season.

Dave goes solo to discuss the latest Panthers news and other topics.

Training camp is almost here — so before the pads come on, we're going position by position and asking the one question that matters most at each spot. Is Bryce Young a franchise QB or a game manager? Who actually plays left tackle Week 1? Can this defense finally rush the passer? Is there ANY depth behind Devin Lloyd? We're breaking down the biggest question mark at every single position on the roster.

Training camp is almost here — and the first real 53-man roster projection is out. Who makes the cut? Who's the surprise name on the outside looking in? We're going position by position.

Plus: ESPN handed Carolina a B for its offseason (and the move they "disliked" might surprise you), two Panthers landed on the trade block, and Tetairoa McMillan became the THIRD Panther on the NFL Top 100.

For the first time since 2023, the Carolina Panthers have a player on the NFL Top 100 — and it's Bryce Young at No. 98. Earned recognition for the NFC South title run, or a low-end reach? We're debating it.

The Carolina Panthers just extended Jalen Coker on a deal worth up to $35 million through 2029.

On the surface, it's a payday for an undrafted breakout. But underneath, this might be Dan Morgan's most strategic move of the entire offseason — and it has massive implications for Tetairoa McMillan's next extension, Xavier Legette's future on the roster, and Chris Brazzell II's development timeline.
