The Carolina Panthers are home favorites for the first time in a minute. This is an unfamiliar operating space for Bryce Young in the NFL and a first for Dave Canales as a head coach.
Both have managed the pressure well in recent weeks as heavy underdogs on the road and at home. There is a difference, however, in the pressure of facing a weak opponent that you are expected to beat.
The Dallas Cowboys are certainly that and fans of the Carolina Panthers, who should represent a sizeable minority of the attendance today, are ready for a win.
