Carolina Panthers, NFC and Buccaneers

Bryce Young has to bear some responsibility, but there are other reasons why he's thrown for under 200 yards so many times this season.
The Panthers, at 7-6, are ironically the team with the best record in one-score games, at 6-1. Two of those wins came against two of the best teams in the NFC: the Green Bay Packers and the Los Angeles Rams. They also hold a slim three-point victory over the Dallas Cowboys, who have been trying to make a late playoff push.
Carolina also announced that they’ve elevated inside linebacker and practice-squad member Isaiah Simmons for the contest. The 2020 first-round pick made his team debut in the Week 13 win over the Los Angeles Rams, where he played 14 snaps on special teams.
