<p><strong>Jaycee Horn </strong>played a crucial role against the 49ers, picking off <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/brock-purdy">Brock Purdy</a> twice and visibly rattling the San Francisco quarterback. But despite his big night, the Carolina Panthers cornerback was <strong>unable to return to the game due to a injury.</strong></p>



<p>Both ESPN and the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> reported the same update during the broadcast. Horn was<strong> officially ruled out with a concussion</strong> after he was already seen struggling on the sideline. <em>“Panthers CB Jaycee Horn being evaluated for a concussion; ESPN’s Lisa Salters said Horn <strong>was vomiting on the sideline</strong> after his second INT,”</em> was one of the first reports shared by Cam Inman.</p>



<p>Horn has recorded five interceptions so far this season. The fact that he was unable to return in a game, such as the one against the 49ers, <strong>is highly worrying for Panthers fans, </strong>as the absence of a cornerback of his caliber leaves a significant hole in that area of the field.</p>



<h2>Who could replace Jaycee Horn?</h2>



<p>The most <strong>viable option on the depth chart was Corey Thornton</strong>, who was also listed as questionable during the game <strong>against the 49ers due to a hard hit. </strong>Now, the Panthers must figure out their plan for Week 13 against the Rams.</p>



<div class="ck-twitter"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-media-max-width="560"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Ed Reed’s somewhere smiling proudly at this Jaycee Horn INT 🔥🔥 <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Panthers?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#Panthers</a> <a href="https://t.co/IH88wf3nfE">pic.twitter.com/IH88wf3nfE</a></p>— ⟁⟁⟁ (@fsh733) <a href="https://twitter.com/fsh733/status/1993139288805159278?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 25, 2025</a></blockquote></div>



<p>The Panthers’ 6-6 record<strong> does not afford them the luxury of losing players,</strong> especially on defense. This is particularly true after a game where they managed to intercept Purdy three times but failed to capitalize on those turnovers for touchdowns or more points, making them essentially a waste of opportunity.</p>

<p>If there’s one team in the <strong>NFL</strong> that’s truly the surprise this season, it’s the <strong>Carolina Panthers</strong>. <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bryce-young">Bryce Young</a></strong>’s squad has endured turbulent years in the league, making their current record put them within striking distance of claiming the NFC South, with several games still to play.</p>



<p>Much of this growth in recent weeks has come from the offensive firepower of Dave Canales’ team, <strong>particularly with the ground contribution of Rico Dowdle. </strong>The running back has emerged as one of the most targeted players by the QB this season.</p>



<p>The former Cowboys player <strong>will become a free agent once this season concludes</strong>, leaving his future uncertain. In recent statements to the press, Dowdle said that this season is a kind of <em>“audition”</em> for him.</p>



<p><em><strong>“Every week is an audition for me, being on a one-year contract,”</strong> </em>Dowdle told reporters, per David Newton. <em>“All 31 teams are always watching. So I wouldn’t say just this week in particular but I definitely know I’ve got to go out there and do my best.”</em></p>

<h2>Dowdle’s influence on the Panthers’ offense</h2>



<p>Running back <strong>Rico Dowdle has unexpectedly become the focal point of the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carolina-panthers">Carolina Panthers</a>‘ offense</strong> this season, providing a much-needed jolt to the running game. </p>


        <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" use="ALSO" link="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/dave-canales-gets-real-on-the-importance-of-monday-night-football-duel-against-49ers" image="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https%3A%2F%2Fimages.bolavip.com%2Fwebp%2Fen%2Ffull%2FBUS_20251122_BUS_531468_Dave-Canales-1.webp&amp;width=200&amp;height=200" excerpt="The Carolina Panthers will return to the spotlight for the first time in a while.

<p>Through 11 games, the veteran back has amassed <strong>833 rushing yards on 168 carries, averaging a strong 5.0 yards per attempt</strong>, and has scored five total touchdowns. </p>



<p>His consistent production, which includes a massive 206-yard rushing performance in a breakout game, has solidified his role as the team’s primary ball-carrier, injecting an element of dynamism and reliability that the Panthers’ attack desperately needed.</p>



<h2>Will Dowdle remain a Panther next season?</h2>



<p>Dowdle is set to cash in this offseason, <strong>as his breakout performance has positioned him as one of the top unrestricted free agents at his position.</strong> After signing a one-year deal, Dowdle, who publicly stated he views every game as an <em>“audition,”</em> has attracted significant league-wide attention. </p>



<p>While the Panthers would undoubtedly like to retain his dynamic running ability, the presence of other contracted backs like Chuba Hubbard and Jonathon Brooks (who is returning from injury) on the roster, combined with multiple teams reportedly interested in acquiring a starting-caliber back, <strong>makes his return to Carolina a major question mark.</strong></p>

<p>The<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carolina-panthers"> Carolina Panthers </a>prepare to visit the San Francisco 49ers on M<strong>onday Night Football. </strong>After a bounce-back win against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 11, the Panthers got closer to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the NFC South division standings.</p>



<p>A Buccaneers loss and a Panthers win in Week 12 would put the Panthers atop the standings ahead of another difficult matchup against the <strong>Los Angeles Rams</strong> in Week 13.</p>



<p>Head coach <strong>Dave Canales,</strong> who has led the team to a 6-5 record, is well aware of the importance of Monday’s game and has tried to convince his players that this will be a big game.</p>



<h2>Dave Canales on the importance of playing in primetime again</h2>



<p>In a conversation with “Panthers Talk,”<strong> Canales reflected on what playing in primetime would mean for his team. </strong>The coach revealed that he’s trying to fire up some players by telling them how special those types of games are.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1920" height="1080" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/08/28142040/Dave-The-Canal-Canales-1920x1080.webp" alt="Head coach Dave Canales of the Carolina Panthers" class="wp-image-481054" sizes="(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px"></figure></div><figcaption>Head coach Dave Canales of the Carolina Panthers</figcaption></figure>



<p>“<strong><em>It’s an unbelievable championship opportunity. It’s exactly the type of opportunity that t’s me up,” </em></strong>Canales said.<em> “It’s so easy to sell to the team. You don’t have to get guys fired up for these types of games, but I do. It is my job to point to these games and say, ‘This is a championship moment. It’s going to feel right. Those of you who haven’t been to an <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> playoffs game, there’s more cameras. It’s under the light sometimes, it’s a special environment.’ We’re playing against a playoff-caliber team in the Niners, and everything is just right for this opportunity. We need these types of challenges to take the next step and grow into the team that I believe we can.”</em></p>



<p>The 49ers (7-2) are in the middle of a race to win the <strong>NFC West </strong>division. They can’t afford to lose against the Panthers, which will raise the stakes for each team.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carolina-panthers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Carolina Panthers</a> are <strong>back on track </strong>after a hard-fought 30-27 win over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday. Dave Canales’ team sits at 6-5 ahead of Week 12, with renewed expectations for the remainder of the season.&nbsp;</p>



<p><strong>Bryce Young </strong>put up a show against the Falcons, finishing 31 of 45 for 448 yards and three touchdowns. Rookie wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan was his best partner, as they connected on eight passes for 130 yards and two touchdowns.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The running game wasn’t as effective as before, only racking up 47 yards. However, running back <strong>Chuba Hubbard</strong> celebrated one of his teammates finding the end zone and his pace again.&nbsp;</p>



<h2>Chuba Hubbard hypes up Xavier Legette after touchdown&nbsp;</h2>



<p><strong>Xavier Legette </strong>scored for the Panthers in the first series of the second half. Young threw a 36-yard pass to cut the Falcons’ lead to 21-16. Legette, who was on the receiving end of criticism, received strong support from Hubbard.&nbsp;</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1920" height="1080" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/08/09140000/xavier-leg-legette-1920x1080.webp" alt="Legette has lots of potential" class="wp-image-469198" sizes="(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px"></figure></div><figcaption>Xavier Legette #17 of the Carolina Panthers</figcaption></figure>



<p>“<strong><em>The celebration was amazing, but the biggest thing that I look at from that moment is just the progression and work that he’s put in,”</em></strong> Hubbard said.<em> “He’s a great player. He’s been resilient. He’s had to deal with adversity. To see him get all the (negative) media attention and all this other stuff kind of coming at his ear here and there — fans saying this and that. And just continuing to work hard, put his head down and just do what he does. And then for it to show up the way it does, it’s good to see.”</em></p>



<p>The Panthers have pulled off big wins this season, but they need to find consistency. That starts with Young, who often swaps terrific performances with quiet games. The <strong>San Francisco 49ers</strong> will be a good test to see where they stand in Week 12.</p>

<p><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carolina-panthers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Carolina Panthers</a> rookie wide receiver <strong>Tetairoa McMillan </strong>is playing at a high level in the 2025 <a href="http://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> season. The No. 8 overall pick in this year’s draft has become the go-to guy for Bryce Young, surpassing Xavier Legette and any other wide receiver in the pecking order.&nbsp;</p>



<p>McMillan comes off his best game to date, posting <strong>eight receptions on 12 targets for 130 yards and two touchdowns. </strong>He helped Young record a 448-yard afternoon, which became the single-game passing yards record in franchise history.&nbsp;</p>



<p>McMillan’s performance<strong> drew him plenty of praise,</strong> with Damien Harris, a former running back turned analyst, giving him his flowers on CBS Sports.&nbsp;</p>



<p>“<strong><em>I want to give some love to Tetairoa McMillan</em>. </strong><em>It was a breakout game for him, but he’s been playing like this all season long, like a true wide receiver one. He hasn’t gotten the love or the credit because the offense has been so poor at times. He’s delivering. This is a cornerstone piece for the Carolina Panthers moving forward,</em>” he said.</p>



<h2>Dave Canales explains why Panthers gave Tetairoa McMillan a bigger role&nbsp;</h2>



<p>In his second season as the Panthers’ head coach, Dave Canales has the team second in the<strong> NFC South</strong> division with a 6-5 record. Canales explained why McMillan was used a lot in slots en route to his terrific game.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1920" height="1080" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/11/02081834/bryce-young-2-1920x1080.webp" alt="Bryce Young" class="wp-image-519597" sizes="(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px"></figure></div><figcaption>Bryce Young #9 of the Carolina Panthers.</figcaption></figure>



<p><strong><em>“Just trying to move him around, trying to make sure he doesn’t get a hard down every play,”</em></strong> Canales said. “<em>There’s a lot of things that defense can do when you’re singled up, so the goal was trying to just continue to move him around in different spots.”</em></p>



<p>The Panthers will try to extend their good moment <strong>against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 12</strong>. McMillan will have another chance to shine, but the Niners’ defense won’t be an easy matchup.&nbsp;</p>

<p><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carolina-panthers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Carolina Panthers </a>star quarterback <strong>Bryce Young</strong> sent a strong message after his team secured its second win of the season against the Atlanta Falcons.

<p>He was in pain after hurting the same ankle that kept him sidelined for one game, and trainers took him directly to the locker room,<strong> but Young returned and did it in big fashion.&nbsp;</strong></p>



<p>The Panthers beat the Falcons, 30-27, in overtime, after Young drove them into position for the game-winning field goal. He connected with tight end Tommy Tremble to put them in a spot to attempt<strong> a 54-yard kick.&nbsp;</strong></p>



<p>Carolina<strong> improved to 6-5, </strong>getting closer to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (6-4) in the NFC West race and winning the regular-season matchup against the Falcons.&nbsp;</p>

<p>“<strong><em>All glory goes to (God).

So just leading on them is what got the job done.”</em></p>



<p>Young had a terrific day, despite playing with a heavily taped ankle. He passed Cam Newton for the single-game passing yards record in Panthers history.<strong> Young threw for 448 yards and three touchdowns.</strong></p>



<p>The Panthers will take on the <strong>San Francisco 49ers</strong> in Week 12, hoping to have their star quarterback ready to go.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/atlanta-falcons" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Atlanta Falcons</a></strong> up-and-down season might go just downhill from now on. Starting quarterback <strong>Michael Penix Jr.</strong> couldn’t complete his outing in the Week 11 game against the <strong>Carolina Panthers</strong>.</p>



<p>According to Adam Schefter, <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/michael-penix-jr" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Michael Penix Jr.</a> suffered a potentially season-ending knee injury.</strong> Still, the quarterback will look for a second opinion. Even with that, it’s not a promising scenario for the second-year signal-caller.</p>



<p>Penix has a long history of knee injuries. <strong>He suffered ACL tears to his left knee in both the 2018 and 2020 seasons in college</strong>. It seems like a long story of unfortunate events for Penix.</p>



<h2>Who is next on the Falcons QB depth chart?</h2>



<p>If Penix is out, <strong>NFL veteran <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kirk-cousins" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kirk Cousins</a> is the next man up</strong>. He has played in three games this season only starting one of them. <strong>Cousins has completed 61.5% of his passes, 250 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions</strong>. </p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1920" height="1080" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/07/08121712/kirk-cousins-2-1920x1080.webp" alt="Kirk Cousins #18 of the Atlanta Falcons" class="wp-image-436427" sizes="(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px"></figure></div><figcaption>Kirk Cousins #18 of the Atlanta Falcons</figcaption></figure>



<p><strong>Cousins was 7-7 last season with the Falcons and has been on a steep decline since 2023</strong>. He had two Pro Bowl seasons in 2021 and 2022, but after that, it’s not been good. He also played against the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carolina-panthers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Panthers</a> last time where they were shut out. The other quarterback is Easton Stick.</p>

<h2>Penix wasn’t stellar either</h2>



<p>Missing Penix is not nice. Still, it’s not like an MVP-caliber quarterback is gone. Penix is still learning the ropes of the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a>. <strong>He has shown flashes of talent but he was still a middle-of-the-pack quarterback.</strong></p>



<p><strong>Penix is 3-6, completing 60.1% of his passes for 1,982 yards, nine touchdowns and three interceptions.</strong> His passer rating is very average too with an 88.5 rate. The season for the Falcons is almost lost, and the quarterback play is one of the main reasons why.</p>

<p>Hoping to stay alive in their pursuit for the NFC South title, the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/atlanta-falcons" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Atlanta Falcons</a></strong> and <strong>Carolina Panthers</strong> meet at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. However, there might be a key factor to the divisional matchup in Week 11 of the 2025 <strong>NFL </strong>season, as <strong>Drake London</strong> has been confirmed to play.</p>



<p>Concern around London’s status wasn’t limited to the fanbase in Atlanta. Fans across the country were stressed about the star wideout’s availability for fantasy football reasons. With one of the best wide receivers in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> in doubt for such a pivotal game for the Falcons, concerns had grown loud in the Gate City of the South.</p>



<p>Initially listed as questionable due to a back injury and illness, insider Adam Schefter reports <strong>London will be active</strong> for the matchup between the 3-6 Falcons and the 5-5 Panthers in Week 11 of the NFL campaign.</p>



<p>Michael Penix Jr. and the <strong>Falcons’ offense rely heavily on their WR1’s</strong> <strong>production</strong>. So far in the 2025 NFL season, London has virtually been the entire passing attack for Atlanta. With him in the lineup, running backs Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier get a big weight off their shoulders. Plus, his presence keeps Carolina on its toes, as Atlanta can be lethal both through the ground and air.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1920" height="1080" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/11/16094016/drake-london-1-1-1920x1080.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-527855"></figure></div><figcaption>Drake London during warmups</figcaption></figure>



<h2>The numbers behind London’s superb season</h2>



<p>The <strong>product out of the University of Southern California</strong> has had a magical season in his fourth year in the NFL. So far, through 8 appearances, London registers 53 receptions for 691 receiving yards — 7th best in the league — and 6 touchdown catches, which is tied for fourth most.</p>

<p>With him in the lineup, the Falcons can truly <strong>put together a two-headed monster</strong> with an impressive passing game and a second-to-none rushing attack with the likes of Robinson and Allgeier. However, both sides of the offense are complementary. If one side crumbles, the other is left out to dry.</p>



<h2>Wipe the slate clean</h2>



<p>The Panthers are a better team than most fans in the NFL gave them credit for coming into the season. Carolina proved its worth with a commanding 30-0 victory over Atlanta—a precedent that is <strong>sure to be floating over the Falcons’ heads</strong> as they head into the rematch.</p>



<p>There’s much to prove for Raheem Morris’ side. With or without London, <strong>the Falcons must change the tune</strong> and give the Panthers a taste of their own medicine. If not, falling to 3-7 without yet registering a divisional victory could well be all she wrote for the organization in The Big Peach.</p>

<p>As the <strong>Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ </strong>closest pursuers in the NFC South, the Panthers were expected to make a statement against a weakened opponent. However, that never happened, despite a 7-3 win in the first quarter.&nbsp;</p>



<p>New Orleans, led by rookie<strong> Tyler Shough</strong> (19-for-27 for 282 yards and two touchdowns), took care of business and gave the Panthers their fifth loss of the season. Bryce Young responded with 124 yards on 17 completions. He failed to find the end zone, as running back sensation Rico Dowdle scored the Panthers’ single touchdown of the duel.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The Panthers have struggled to find consistency this season. They have several questions to answer if they want to pose a real threat to the Buccaneers, who lost against the <strong>New England Patriots</strong> on Sunday.&nbsp;</p>

Panthers rookie calls out team for lack of energy against Saints - Bolavip US

<p>After entering their Week 10 matchup as heavy favorites, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carolina-panthers"><strong>Carolina Panthers</strong> </a>were upset by divisional rivals <strong>New Orleans Saints</strong> in a 17-7 loss on Sunday.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Fresh off a big win against the <strong>Green Bay Packers</strong> in Week 9, they looked like clear favorites to win this game against one of the worst teams in the league. Bryce Young couldn’t take his team to the promised land after a tumultuous afternoon.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The third-year quarterback went 17 of 25 for 124 yards and zero touchdowns against one interception. Running back <strong>Rico Dowdle s</strong>cored the Panthers’ only touchdown.&nbsp;</p>



<p>On the other side,<strong> Tyler Shough</strong> went 19 of 27 for 282 yards and two touchdowns against two sacks. New Orleans showed that it has a lot of potential on the roster amid a rocky campaign.</p>



<h2>Analyst says Bryce Young is the Panthers’ biggest issue&nbsp;</h2>



<p>Ahead of this duel, <strong>Bleacher Report’s Brent Sobleski </strong>rejected the notion that Young is the answer to the Panthers’ questions, noting that not having a real franchise quarterback is hurting their plans.&nbsp;</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/01/26125858/Bryce-Young-9-of-the-Alabama-Crimson-Tide-celebrates-after-recieving-MVP-award-during-of-the-Allsta-1024x576-1024x576.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-321725" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div></figure>



<p><strong><em>“At 5-4 entering Week 10, the Panthers were one of the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL’s</a> more surprising teams this year,”</em></strong> Sobleski wrote. <em>“However, after watching their offense sputter most of the afternoon in a loss to the hapless Saints, something has become evident: The Panthers were winning in spite of Bryce Young, not because of him. He isn’t the long-term answer under center in Carolina. The 2023 first overall pick completed 68 percent of his passes Sunday, but for a paltry 125 yards with an interception. It was the fifth time in 10 games that he has failed to eclipse 150 passing yards.”</em></p>



<p>Carolina<strong> is 5-5 after the Saints game.</strong> Young has shown that he can bounce back from bad performances, but fans have yet to see him elevate his and his team’s game consistently.</p>

<p>The <strong>New Orleans Saints</strong>‘ fan base is understandably discontent with the team’s performance this regular season. With a disappointing 1-8 record, the season appears all but lost as they prepare to face the <strong>Carolina Panthers</strong>. The team is battered by injuries, with the availability of key players such as <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/alvin-kamara" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Alvin Kamara</a></strong> uncertain ahead of the pivotal Week 10 matchup.</p>



<p>According to the official <strong><a href="https://www.neworleanssaints.com/team/injury-report/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">New Orleans Saints website</a></strong>, Alvin Kamara was listed as questionable for today’s game against the Carolina Panthers due to a knee injury.<strong> </strong>However, <strong>a report from <em>ESPN’s Adam Schefter</em>, Kamara will be available today</strong>, and could be crucial due to an impressive overall catch percentage of 82%.</p>



<p>With Kamara available, quarterback Spencer Rattler can rely on Chris Olave too, to help invigorate the offense against the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carolina-panthers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Panthers</a></strong>. Additionally, Rattler could look to Kendre Miller, <strong>who has managed a perfect 100% catch rate in the seven games he has played this season.</strong></p>



<p>On the other hand, the Panthers are cautious not to underestimate the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-orleans-saints" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Saints</a></strong> despite their struggles. Although New Orleans may appear to be an easy target to extend Carolina’s winning record, the Panthers acknowledge the challenge ahead, especially as they contend with their own absences, <strong>such as guard Chandler Zavala, who is sidelined with an elbow injury.</strong></p>

<p>Third-year quarterback <strong>Bryce Young </strong>and the<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carolina-panthers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Carolina Panthers</a> escaped Lambeau Field with a hard-fought, close win against the Green Bay Packers (16-13) in Week 9 of the 2025<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> NFL</a> season.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Young continues to evolve, and while it wasn’t the prettiest win, he led his team to the fourth win of the season, bringing their record to 5-4 and keeping them in the race for the <strong>NFC South </strong>division.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Young faced a tough Packers defense, going 11 of 20 for 102 yards against one interception. The former Alabama quarterback still took his squad to the promised land against the then-No. 1 seed in the NFC.&nbsp;In doing so, Young joined <strong>an exclusive club of players</strong> undefeated since the start of October.&nbsp;</p>



<h2>Bryce Young remains undefeated since the start of October&nbsp;</h2>



<p>After finishing September with a <strong>1-3 record, </strong>Young put the Panthers in a solid position to compete. The player went 4-0 in October, meaning he’s one of three quarterbacks without a single loss since the start of last month.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Young, alongside<strong> Drake Maye (5-0) and Bo Nix (5-0)</strong>, is one of the only three quarterbacks undefeated since the start of October.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The Panthers started the month with a win over the Miami Dolphins (27-24). They followed up with another one-score win over the Dallas Cowboys (30-27), followed by a low-scoring battle against the New York Jets (13-6)<strong>. Most recently, they beat the Packers.</strong></p>



<p>In the middle of that, they clashed with the Buffalo Bills. <strong>Andy Dalton </strong>didn’t stand a chance against the AFC East squad, losing 40-9 in Week 8.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Usually when a team has an internal battle, it’s a quarterback one. However, the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/green-bay-packers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Green Bay Packers</a></strong> have a kicker battle going on. Ahead of their game against the <strong>Carolina Panthers</strong>, will <strong>Brandon McManus</strong> play or not?</p>



<p>According to the last injury report, <strong>Brandon McManus is questionable to play after dealing with a quad injury</strong>. However, nothing is settled right now. McManus did practice all week but Lucas Havrisik remains on the roster too.</p>



<p>McManus hasn’t had a top year. <strong>He is averaging just 69.2% scoring, missing four field goals already, including two last week.</strong> He has also missed an extra point attempt. All in all, McManus hasn’t been as reliable as the Packers had hoped.</p>



<h2>McManus might lose the kicker battle</h2>



<p>McManus lost a couple of games due to injury and Lucas Havrisik got the chance to step in. He was phenomenal. During that two-game span, <strong>Havrisik scored 4/4 field goals, including a 61-yarder.</strong></p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/11/02105412/lucas-havrisik-1024x576-1024x576.webp" alt="Lucas Havrisik #35 of the Green Bay Packers" class="wp-image-519661" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>Lucas Havrisik #35 of the Green Bay Packers</figcaption></figure>



<p>Not only that, but <strong>Havrisik even became somewhat of a cult hero among Packers fans</strong>. Havrisik also is 100% accurate on extra points. After all, he has a better average than McManus and is not dealing with any injuries.</p>

<h2>The Packers can’t slip up </h2>



<p>Riding a three-game winning streak, the Packers are very good. The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> is not forgiving and when it’s about the NFC North, it’s even worse. <strong>Detroit has the same amount of wins, the only difference is the fact that the Packers have a tie </strong>and that’s what have them as first in the division.</p>



<p>If they slip up, the division could go away from them. <strong>That would mean they would have to battle with the rest of the conference to get a playoff spot</strong> as the wildcard. They must keep winning games at any cost.</p>

<p><strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bryce-young">Bryce Young</a></strong>’s <strong>Carolina Panthers</strong> find themselves at a pivotal point in the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a></strong> season, where even the slightest misstep could jeopardize their chances in the NFC South race. Their trip to Lambeau Field to face the <strong>Green Bay Packers</strong> shapes up as a high-stakes matchup — one in which securing a road win feels essential to keeping their postseason hopes alive.</p>



<p>The good news for Dave Canales and his coaching staff is that they’ll have their starting quarterback available for this crucial matchup. According to <a href="https://www.nfl.com/news/bryce-young-ankle-off-injury-report-set-to-start-for-panthers-vs-packers-on-sunday">NFL.com</a>, <strong>Bryce Young has been removed from the injury report and is set to start against the Packers.</strong></p>



<p><em>“Bryce Young will be back for the Carolina Panthers in Week 9. Young, who missed the previous week with an ankle sprain, has no designation on Friday’s injury report and is slated to start against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday.”</em></p>



<p>It’s worth noting that the injury sustained in Week 7 against the Jets forced Canales to start Andy Dalton at quarterback in the lopsided 40–9 loss to the Buffalo Bills.</p>

<h2>Back to winning ways</h2>



<p>The Carolina Panthers must quickly shake off the humiliating 40-9 beatdown by the Bills as they travel to Lambeau Field to face the surging Packers. With a crucial NFC South race brewing—and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers currently leading the pack—<strong>Carolina needs to prove last week was an anomaly</strong>. A strong showing is mandatory to maintain realistic expectations for a division title push against the Bucs.</p>



<h2>What’s next for the Panthers?</h2>



<p>Following the embarrassing blowout loss to the Bills, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carolina-panthers">Carolina Panthers</a> face a critical three-game gauntlet that will define their NFC South title aspirations. It begins with a daunting road test against the high-flying Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field. </p>



<p>Win or lose, the true test of their mettle lies in the subsequent back-to-back divisional matchups: first, <strong>a crucial home stand against the struggling New Orleans Saints, and then a pivotal road rematch against the Atlanta Falcons. </strong></p>



<p>With the Tampa Bay Buccaneers holding the current division lead, Carolina absolutely must secure victories in these NFC South battles to stay relevant in the race and salvage their season.</p>

<p>The <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carolina-panthers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Carolina Panthers</a></strong> played without <strong>Bryce Young</strong> last week.

<p>With <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/andy-dalton" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Andy Dalton</a>, the offense looked absolutely terrible. <strong>They scored only nine points and couldn’t move the ball effectively</strong>. However, the latest reports indicate that Young was a full participant in Thursday’s practice.</p>



<p>Dalton, on the other hand, was limited due to a thumb issue. Hence, it all points back to Young being under center. <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bryce-young" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Young</a> had the Panthers on a three-game winning streak before Dalton’s blunder last week</strong>.</p>



<h2>Dalton made the Panthers pray for Young’s return</h2>



<p>Young is not an elite quarterback. In fact, he is a bottom-tier quarterback in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a>.
