Worst of the defense 14. S Nick Scott: 45.1 15. DL Tershawn Wharton: 43.7 16. DL LaBryan Ray: 42.1 17. CB Jaycee Horn: 41.7 18. OLB Princely Umanmielen: 28.3 Horn's 41.7 mark is the lowest of his season. Umanmielen's 28.3 mark is the second-lowest for a Panthers defender in 2025.

Best of the defense 1. DL Derrick Brown: 70.2 2. S Lathan Ransom: 69.8 3. CB Mike Jackson: 69.4 4. ILB Claudin Cherelus: 66.9 5. ILB Christian Rozeboom: 60.4 Carolina allowed 216 rushing yards and two touchdowns to Bills running back James Cook, so there wasn't much run defense to speak of. But Brown finished with a team-best 71.2 grade in that department. Rozeboom cleaned up with a game-high 12 tackles.

Worst of the offense 13. RT Taylor Moton: 57.4 14. WR Xavier Legette: 57.4 15. TE Tommy Tremble: 53.3 16. QB Andy Dalton: 42.6 17. RT Yosh Nijman: 42.5 Nijman also filled in after Moton left with a knee injury. He allowed a team-high five pressures and was given a team-low 22.9 pass-blocking grade. Dalton completed 16 of his 24 throws for 175 yards and an interception. He lost a pair of fumbles as well.

Best of the offense 1. WR Tetairoa McMillan: 85.9 2. LG Damien Lewis: 83.3 3. RG Jake Curhan: 82.1 4. LT Ikem Ekwonu: 81.1 5. C Austin Corbett: 76.1

9-0 you guys should have seen this coming. I certainly did

Perfect timing. He's certainly a better option than Jake Curhan

Andy Dalton is single-handedly losing this game for us

Andy has been not good

Tremendous

Our D can’t stop the run

Disastrous

Dalton will open up the middle of the filed downfield passing game. If we protect him he should be able to have a good game. The team will miss Bryce’s playmaking ability I expect the Bills to bring the blitz vs Andy. We have no pass rush and I fully expect Josh Allen to have a big game against our defense. Bills - 27 Panthers - 17

Always good to see G-reg

Very nice. Even better than Drew Cock or Michael Dick

Bryce Young CARQuarterback#9 NFL Network’s Cameron Wolfe said it “sounds like” QB Bryce Young’s ankle injury is “just a one-week injury” and the “hope” is he plays in Week 9 against the Packers. The Panthers listed Young as doubtful to play in Week 8 against the Bills, rather than ruling him out immediately on Friday, so a Week 9 return makes sense. Over the last three weeks, Young finished as the QB23, QB12 and QB24. He will likely return to the low-end QB2 ranks against the Packers’ talented defense, if active next week
