Carolina Panthers

Quarterback P.J. Walker has been a revelation for the Panthers this season. He has thrown for over 2,000 yards and 15 touchdowns in just eight games. Walker has a strong arm and is accurate with his throws. He also has the ability to make plays with his feet.
Wide receiver D.J. Moore is one of the best young wide receivers in the NFL. He is averaging over 100 yards per game this season and has caught six touchdowns. Moore is a big-play threat who can stretch the field.
Running back Christian McCaffrey is one of the most versatile running backs in the NFL. He is averaging over 100 yards per game from scrimmage this season and has scored nine touchdowns. McCaffrey is a threat to run and catch the ball.
The Panthers’ defense has been a weak link this season. They are allowing over 28 points per game. However, the Panthers have made some improvements on defense in recent weeks.
Indianapolis Colts
