ESPN says we're the 7th most injured team this year

7. Carolina Panthers

ESPN analyst Cris Carter said the Panthers couldn't win more than seven games after star wide receiver Kelvin Benjamin suffered a season-ending knee injury in training camp. The Panthers are 5-0. That they've done this with Benjamin and defensive end Frank Alexander (Achilles) out for the season -- not to mention other key injuries along the defense -- has been impressive. But the injuries have taken their toll. The Panthers' wide receiver corps ranks last in the NFL in most categories, and Carolina's sacks are down, as the defense has been forced to create quarterback pressure more with blitzes than the past three seasons. -- David Newton
Players out for season: WR Kelvin Benjamin (knee), DE Frank Alexander (Achilles), WR Stephen Hill (knee), OT Nate Chandler (knee)
Players injured: DE Charles Johnson (hamstring), LB Luke Kuechly(concussion), WR Jerricho Cotchery (hamstring), DT Star Lotulelei (foot), DEJared Allen (pinched nerve), LB A.J. Klein (concussion)
Total starts missed: 48 -- Benjamin (16), Alexander (16), Johnson (7), Kuechly (3), Cotchery (2), Lotulelei (2), Allen (1), Klein (1)
