The Carolina Panthers are visiting the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for the penultimate game of the 2024 regular season. Only two games stand between the Panthers and another long off season focused on building a depleted roster into a competitive team. The team is locked into a higher draft pick, likely somewhere between the fifth and twelfth overall picks, and is now focused on building momentum into the off season.
That is going to be a tall order with little defense and no Chuba Hubbard today. Bryce Young is going to have to step up his game again if he wants to inspire faith amongst Panthers fans as the starter for 2025.
