The Carolina Panthers will be kicking off the 2018 season against the Dallas Cowboys and these are the key players fans should watch in Week 1.

It has been a long eight months since the Carolina Panthers walked off the field in New Orleans in their playoff loss. They will be hoping to erase that memory quickly with a win over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday at Bank of America Stadium.

The Panthers have plenty of talent to make another playoff run with players like Cam Newton, Greg Olsen and Luke Kuechly. However, they also have a number of question marks specifically along the offensive line.

This is an area that has been hit hard with injuries this preseason and the coaching staff has had to get creative at time for their starting five. The good news though is that they could be getting healthy just in time for this season with Daryl Williams and Amini Silatolu listed as questionable.

The Panthers are facing a Dallas Cowboys team that has plenty of questions of their own and while they have an excellent running back in Ezekiel Elliott, do they have the weapons in the passing game to compliment the back.

These are the key players for the Carolina Panthers in Week 1 against the Dallas Cowboys.
