Welcome to Monday Night Football

ESPN’s Monday Night Football is back with the Miami Dolphins visiting the Los Angeles Rams at 8:15 ET on ESPN.

As always in our brave new world of expansive sports gambling, it is now easier to bet on games than to watch them. You can catch current odds on all NFL games here on FanDuel.

The Rams are favored to win here by a hair. But Miami quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has elevated the Dolphins offense after returning from a concussion that once again placed him on injured reserve. This won’t be your average 2-6 team...

The Panthers beat the Giants 20-17 in Week 10 to improve to 3-7. Check out their complete schedule and results for the 2024 season. All times are Eastern Time.

The Carolina Panthers are 3-7 through Week 10 of the 2024 NFL season. They sit in third place in the NFC South. The Panthers beat the New York Giants 20-17 this past week.

How has the team fared against Vegas?

It’s no secret that the Carolina Panthers have been a bad team in the NFL in 2024. Though it is worth noting that they are a uniquely bad team as they are the only team currently projected to earn a top ten draft pick who are also on a winning streak. Talk about sending mixed signals to your fanbase.

What hasn’t been a mixed signal is the relatively sure bet over the last several years of betting against the Carolina Panthers. FanDuel Sportsbook has favored the Panthers opponent in every game through the...

It’s the obvious choice

Carolina Panthers fans are entering their team’s bye week on the crest of an unfamiliar wave: a winning streak. This is the team’s first winning streak since Week 3 of the 2021 season. To put that in context, that was five head coaches ago and Sam Darnold was the starting quarterback.

With three wins before the bye week, the Panthers are also on track to surpass their 2023 win total by yesterday. They have won no more than seven games since 2017. They could pass their win total for every season coached fully or partially by...

Welcome to Sunday Night Football

Sunday Night Football is back this week featuring Detroit Lions visiting the Houston Texans. All Sunday Night Football games kick off at 8:20 ET on NBC.

As always in our brave new world of expansive sports gambling, it is now easier to bet on games than to watch them. You can catch current odds on all NFL games for Week 9 here on FanDuel.

The 6-3 Texans have been good this season, but they aren’t quite viewed as in the same league as the 7-1 Detroit Lions. Dan Campbell’s Lions have been tenacious and productive...

The Panthers won another battle of bad teams, defeating the Giants in overtime in Germany.

Chuba Hubbard ran for a career high 153 yards and two touchdowns to power the Carolina Panthers to an overtime victory over the New York Giants, 20-17.

First Quarter

The Panthers took the ball first and unceremoniously went three and out thanks to a second down sack by Brian Burns. Mike Jackson committed a 43 yard pass interference on the first defensive olay of the game, but that was the only positive play the Giants would get. Daniel Jones airmailed a pass over a...

The Panthers once again face one of the worst teams in the NFL. This time in Germany.

The Carolina Panthers are looking to continue their one-week winning streak with a big win over the 2-7 New York Giants this morning.

Today’s game, taking place in Munich, Germany, will mark the Panthers second international game after their 2019 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in London. That is to say that the NFL has chosen not to wait for the Panthers to be remotely competitive before forcing their product upon international markets.

As always, use this space to talk about the...

At least we aren’t sliding backwards

The Carolina Panthers are looking to double their win total for the second week in a—oh, sorry, I’m being told that’s not how math works. Good luck convincing the average Panthers fan that, however, as we have had an astronomical leap in confidence in this team after beating one of the other contenders for “worst team in the league” in the New Orleans Saints.

That’s right, 62% of fans are now confident in the direction of the Carolina Panthers. That is up from a season low of 17% from Week 2. Whether or not...
