In a season that has contained more twists and turns than the Blue Ridge Parkway, the defining constant has been the ineptitude of the defense. It started in week one when Carolina gave up 47 points to Derek Carr and the New Orleans Saints.
It hit rock bottom in week seven when Marcus Mariota and the Commanders dropped 40 points with Rookie of the Year favorite Jayden Daniels on the bench. when Baker Mayfield and the Buccaneers hung a season-high 48 points while breaking the Panthers' franchise record for time of possession allowed in a single game.The loss of Derrick Brown to a week one knee injury turned out to be just the tip of the iceberg. Brown, Shaq Thompson, Josey Jewell, DJ Wonnum, and Trevin Wallace have all missed significant time with various ailments. Pro Bowl corner back Jaycee Horn has missed the last two weeks.3-4 defensive schemes have long plagued his tenure as Carolina's defensive coordinator.
