  1. @ Detroit Lions – 1 PM Fox 10/8

I was never really sold on Detroit this year and I imagine my doubts will continue to the next season. I’m not sold on the Jim Caldwell as head coach thing or the life after Calvin Johnson thing (although that may have removed the Megatron curse). Therefore I think this game will be one of the indicators of how the Panthers are doing. Win, and we’re cooking. Lose, and we may wonder what is about to hit us this season.

Panthers – (4-1)

    1. Philadelphia Eagles – 8:25 CBS 10/12

    The good news is that the Panthers get to face Carson Wentz at home. The bad news is that it follows what will likely be a hard game in Detroit. There is ample opportunity to slip up here. Oddly enough this is the second former Chip Kelly team on the schedule this year for the Panthers. The other strategic thing about this game is that the Panthers get a fair amount of rest after it.

    Panthers – (5-1)

    1. @ Chicago Bears – 1:00 PM Fox 10/22

    Of course, the ten day rest would have better for the next game against the Bucs rather than the showdown with John Fox. The NFL is a small world after all. The Bears will have Mike Glennon captaining their offense. Can they keep him upright against the Panthers? Will the Bears have improved after shedding Cutler and Alshon Jeffrey? Not likely.

    Panthers – (6-1)
