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 Panthers could seriously consider. This week our profile will focus on South Carolina Gamecocks quarterback LaNorris Sellers.

Bio

Sellers ended his high school career with a South Carolina high school state championship, Shrine Bowl MVP, and a 4.95 GPA. He decided to stay close...

The Carolina Panthers are hot on their first multi-game win streak in ages. Dave Canales has committed to the run. Bryce Young is playing mistake-free football. Ejiro Evero has figured out what linebackers are for and where they go Things are looking pretty rosy in Charlotte as the Panthers are .500 for the first time since Sam Darnold came to town.

Their next two games, however, are classic Panthers losses in waiting. The New York Jets are a winless, hapless mess. They are exactly who the Carolina of old would show up completely unprepared for. They are also on the...

Throughout the 2025 NFL season, SB Nation’s Doug Farrar will write about the game’s Secret Superstars — those players whose performances might slip under the radar for whatever reasons. In this installment, we feature Carolina Panthers running back Rico Dowdle, who gave a Joe Namath-style guarantee in the week leading up to his revenge game against the Dallas Cowboys, and then backed every bit of it up — with authority.

Well, Rico Dowdle did try to warn his former NFL team.

After a 2024 season in which Dowdle gained 1,079 rushing yards and scored two rushing touchdowns on 235 carries,...

It turns out that winning is more fun than losing. Who knew? The Dallas Cowboys came into Bank of America Stadium with all the expectations that they were going to win this game, but they forgot to do one thing. The one thing that former Cowboy and current Carolina Panther Rico Dowdle told them they would have to do a week ago: they forget to buckle up.

No shame in that, I’m forgetful myself from time to time. But you can’t come to play the Panthers in Charlotte, North Carolina without being strapped in and ready to go and still...

Hello CSR! Welcome to Brian Asks, your weekly Panthers fan mail bag for everyone! We’re coming off a 2-0 win streak, not something that has been very common in the current iteration of the Panthers. Last week, the Panthers managed to down the Dallas Cowboys in Rico Dowdle’s revenge game. We are once again here with a nice mail bag as the Panthers are three and three and control their own destiny. They have the chance to win three games in a row by defeating a very beatable New York Jets.

You all know the drill, come, ask all of...

The 3-3 Carolina Panthers are .500 and on a two-game winning streak for what feels like the first time in living memory. Dave Canales has discovered the strength of this team centers around stopping the run on defense and establishing the run on offense.

That hasn’t stopped online sportsbooks from remaining skeptical of the black cats, even against some of the most meager competition the NFL has to offer. FanDuel opened their Week 7 odds with the Panthers as +1.5 road underdogs to the New York Jets.

Carolina has yet to show up and offer a complete performance on the...

Hello CSR! I’m taking over this week’s version of the Monday Morning Optimist, and I’m very happy to do so. I decided to base my headline on Walker’s post from last week, thanks for letting me hijack this!

The Carolina Panthers defeated the Dallas Cowboys 30-27, an all around great effort that kept the Panthers firmly in “regular season matters” type of football rather than “how is this win/loss going to affect their first round pick” territory. They faced a Cowboys team that hasn’t been the best, but one that has been clawing for divisional/playoff supremacy. The Panthers went punch...

The Carolina Panthers outlasted the Dallas Cowboys in an offensive showdown, coming away with a 30-27 win.

First Quarter

The Panthers defense took the field first against one of the more intimidating offenses the league has to offer right now. They answered the bell though. They stifled a couple of conservative offensive plays to set up and obvious passing situation on third down, and A’Shawn Robinson got one of his sizeable arms in the passing lane to deflect the ball to the turf and force a quick three and out. That gave the Panthers a chance to take the...

The Carolina Panthers are on a three-game home winning streak stretching back to the 2024 season. The last team they lost to at home? The Dallas Cowboys. It was arguably Bryce Young’s worst game during his 2024 “hot streak.”

What does that mean for today’s game? We’re all about to find out together.

This is your open thread to follow along with all the action today.

The Carolina Panthers are heading into their Week 6 match up against the Dallas Cowboys at less than 100%. Leading this week’s injury report is star right tackle Taylor Moton, who has been ruled out for the game Sunday with an elbow injury. There is hope for the offense, however, as pass catchers Jalen Coker (wide receiver, quad) and Ja’Tavion Sanders (tight end, ankle) may be set to return after extended absences.

Moton

Moton’s loss is the biggest story of the week for the Panthers, who will also be without top running back Chuba Hubbard. Moton will be replaced...
