Bryce Young gets high praise after beating Rams

Bryce Young #9 of the Carolina Panthers.
âThe Alabama product was solid in his teamâs upset win at home over the Los Angeles Rams, finishing 15 of 20 for 206 yards, with three touchdown passes and no interceptions for a 147.1 passer rating,â Williams wrote. âPanthers head coach Dave Caneles has done a nice job of creating an offense that accentuates Youngâs skill set, leaning on a running game led by Chuba Hubbard and Rico Dowdle. At 7-6, the Panthers have a chance to challenge the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the NFC South. And Youngâs efficient play in leading the offense gives Carolina a chance to win each week.â
They will face the New Orleans Saints on Week 15, hoping to get revenge on their divisional rivals and secure their eighth win of the season.
