The Carolina Panthers have played 8 of their 16 game regular season schedule. The Panthers defeated the 4-4 Tennessee Titans today making the Panthers 5-3 on the season. Carolina had just came off of a horrible performance in a week 8 51-13 loss to an undefeated 49ers team. However, with this week’s win the Panthers are still very much in place for a playoff push.

Christian Mccaffrey gained over a 160 yards from scrimmage and reached the end zone 3 times in the Panthers 30-20 win. Mccaffrey now leads the NFL with 10 rushing touchdowns and is in contention for MVP honors.

The Carolina defense also looked good against Tennessee’s offense led by Ryan Tannehill. The Panthers defense forced a total of 3 turnovers with 2 interceptions from Cornerback Donte Jackson and Saftey Tre Boston.

The Panthers face a tough Green Bay Packers team on the road in week 10, and they should have more information on weather QB Cam Newton will be ready to play. With the New Orleans Saints leading the NFC South division, I believe that the Panther’s best shot at a 2019 playoff appearance will be a wild card game. For that to happen, the Panthers will probably need to finish the season with at least 10 wins.

Question of the week: How do you think think the Panthers will finish the 2019 regular season?
