The Panthers slipped past the Saints this past weekend. What questions does Panther Nation have following the first divisional game of the season?
What is wrong with the defense?
Obviously injuries have been an issue, especially in the front seven. Getting Luke Kuechly back (who could play this weekend) will definitely help. Star Lotulelei has already returned, he just needs to get into game shape. The hits keep coming, though, as Charles Johnson now heads to IR/DTR. The biggest issue has not been injuries, however. This defense is the least disciplined I have seen a Ron Rivera-led defense be.
