The Patriots traveled to Carolina on Thursday for their Friday evening preseason game against the Carolina Panthers. The game has a 7:30 p.m. kickoff and will be carried locally on WBZ TV with Dan Roche and Christian Fauria on the call. Matt Chatham will handle the sideline analyst duties.
Bill Belichick stated earlier this week that the team was handling this week’s game as a regular season contest in terms of team meeting scheduling, practices and game plan preparation.
