Patrick Mahomes hoping to bounce back against improving Panthers team

After the season’s first loss to the Buffalo Bills, the Kansas City Chiefs are looking to get back on track with this Sunday’s Week 12 matchup against the Carolina Panthers — a team that started the season 1-7.

But before last week’s bye, the Panthers gained momentum, winning two straight to improve their record to 3-7. With several young Panthers starting to get comfortable under first-year head coach Dave Canales, Kansas City linebacker Drue Tranquill believes Carolina is a team the Chiefs cannot overlook.

“They’ve certainly played better the last two weeks — and I think they’re starting to gel; starting to mesh a little bit,” noted Tranquill.
