Carolina Panthers Preview

Tetairoa McMillan is the top receiver with 27 catches for 380 yards and 2 touchdowns. Tight end Tommy Tremble and back Chuba Hubbard help on short throws over the middle as well as in the flat.
Up front, Taylor Moton is inactive (elbow), so quick passes and play-action are important. Kicker Ryan Fitzgerald is 10-of-11 on field goals (long 57). On defense, Christian Rozeboom has 43 tackles, A’Shawn Robinson has a sack, and Mike Jackson has an interception. Carolina has won two straight and needs a first win on the road after an 0–3 away record.

On defense, Jamien Sherwood has 60 tackles. Will McDonald IV (questionable) has 2 sacks, and Quinnen Williams has one. Nick Folk is 12-for-12 on field goals (long 58), and Austin McNamara averages 47.8 yards per punt. The Jets need sustained drives, fewer plays for losses, and Hall involved both on the ground and through the air.
Carolina Panthers vs New York Jets Prediction
Carolina comes in off two wins with productive rushing from Dowdle and excellent results from the kicking game. New York can run with Hall and Fields, but the Jets have not performed well late in games. In a low-scoring matchup, the Panthers’ recent form and kicking game give them the advantage on the road. Final Score Prediction: Carolina Panthers win and cover ATS 21–17.
