Defense will keep Carolina Panthers in games; Carolina Panthers play calling lacks creativity

The Carolina Panthers defense makes up for the deficiencies of the offense and rookie QB Bryce Young, but injuries to Jaycee Horn and Shaq Thompson are going to hurt in the long run. Also, why is safety Jeremy Chinn getting such little playing time?

The Carolina Panthers and head coach Frank Reich have scored only 27 points through Week 2 of the 2023 NFL Season. The play calling and scheme looks bland, lacks creativity, and doesn't do much to help rookie QB Bryce Young.
